Hello from a LEGO Mindstorms EV3 P-Brick. I'm running EV3DEV (Debian linux) and w3m to access 68kmla. The EV3 brick has ~512MB of RAM last I checked, and w3m can even display 4-color greyscale images on the tiny, tiny EV3 screen.

So I noticed a few days ago the awesome thread from that Hare Krishna person was deleted. Luckily, I made a copy of that thread's page soon after it was originally posted. Probably should have sent it to archive.org, too... Maybe someone viewing this forum decades from now will be surprised with what we dealt with back in the day.

Does m68k Linux/BSD support rendering images via the framebuffer? If so, you could run w3m to surf the net on HTTPS and have it display images.

I had the strangest dream last night. I saw Windows 7 run on a 68k Mac, but without any of the trademark UI animations. The System control panel said it was running on a Motorola 68030.

Man, Powerbook 1xx RAM is expensive. Screw that, I'll just make my own! The most difficult part is sourcing the RAM chips themselves...

I was trying to view instructions for building the BlueSCSI V1.1 for PowerBooks but I just couldn't find them anywhere. I feel like the devs are almost trying to bury the previous versions.

Is there a way to get video out of, say, the Powerbook 170 without having to hunt down a rare 3rd party card? Maybe a modern recreation? It doesn't look very hard to make one.

Can you use AppleScript 1.1 to make a HTTP request? And is it possible to use HTTPS in a 68k application?

Idea: Use a Raspberry Pi Pico W in your BlueSCSI V2. Then modify the Pi's firmware to emulate a serial modem with a usb to serial adapter.

Anybody have tips on how to make your site work with ancient browsers? Like the great 68k Netscape 2.02 and iCab 2.99. Specifically I'd like to know how to disable SSL for old browsers that don't support it, like what Macintosh Repository does (did?).

Do they still make Motorola 68040 processors? The 68000 seems very cheap. I’m trying to figure out how you’d go about making your own PDS upgrade cards.
