minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink1•21 days agoThe screwdriver is not for the tape. It’s for adjusting the audio head so it can pick up the data on the tape. When someone gave you a tape with some nice games on it there was a near 100% chance you needed to adjust your datasette to read them.
