#marchintosh may be almost over but I finally got some work done on the 8500/120 - it’s an evil case to work on: 30 year old plastic everywhere. But, got the 30 year old battery replaced and got the #bluescsi mounted - also used my jank 3d printed PCI blank for the SD card.

I’ve been fighting the Ender on and off for the past few months - prints have been failing and what comes out is terrible. Just at the point of mumbling “this piece of sh…” I notice the label on the filament: PETG. Not sure where that came from, but I have been printing with PLA settings 🤦🏻♂️

Happy #Marchintosh! Never enough free time - just getting to this project 9500 - she boots! Slowly. Using an image from my old 7900/100 and no keyboard mouse. This old girl is a mess - needs cleaned, batt, and some careful work - very brittle plastic. Better late than never…

This reminds me that I still need to watch “Vengeance Most Fowl.”

Late to the party - Happy Marchintosh! This month’s goal - get this bugger up and running again. It’s good to have goals; time dictates, though.

Somehow this was on my Amazon wishlist; somehow it is now in my basement.

Found this last night in NSO - strangely unique, challenging, and fun. It’d be neat to see a modern iteration of the ideas present in this game.

Holding a Quake III LAN party with 20-somethings. Challenge to find the oldest thing I still own that plays QIII. From G4 to Dreamcast… technically… the Saturn has Quake… just not Q3… living like it’s 1997.

It's literal virtue-signalling, but I enjoyed the little dopamine hit of uninstalling CoPilot from my computer

Play more retro games. Especially the ones you may have missed for one reason or another. The more retro the better. We wouldn't even have new games if it weren't for these.

Sunday project: A/UX. After some fighting and outdated documentation it booted. Then crashed. Like a real Mac. Working now: no networking, though. More work needed.
