Can I control a Raspberry Pi via serial console from a 68k Mac?

Converted the PB 1xx battery .3ds file to stl, is this right??
I've contacted this company called "Memory Protection Devices" and after some discourse they want to send me a (sample) 10 AA battery holder, with 2 packs of 5 AA's wired in parallel so thereby outputting 6v. Assuming it fits inside a PB battery case, would anybody actually want these?
What kind of AA battery holder do I use in a Powerbook 1XX battery replacement? I'm talking about these things
So my BlueSCSI v2 tells me I can use it as a ROM drive with my LC... Is there anything useful I can do with a custom ROM? Speed hacks?
I see there are some cheap 68030's and 040's out there, how hard would it be to build my own PDS card for my Mac LC? Ideally I'd want to re-create a MicroMac Speedster040. However I'm definitely not up to surface mount soldering those ICs
Attention Mac Hackers: How do I draw custom graphics on the Welcome To Macintosh screen? I don't want a custom StartupScreen, I want to modify the Picasso Mac icon on the original dialog and draw a larger graphic in its place.
How do I make the monitor-related control strip modules work in System 7.1.1? I installed the Control Strip control panel from 7.5.3 and it does work except the modules for changing the screen bitdepth/res don't appear at all. Maybe Powerbook 5xx users with 5xx-specific 7.1.1 installed can drop me the older control strip modules?

I got a BlueSCSI v2 for my LC today. I'm trying to use it to fix the internal Quantum drive, however it isn't appearing on the desktop. I'll try some things and reply back if I get it working.
Something weird I noticed: My profile says I've left 47 messages on this forum, however counting from the Messages page it's more like 86. Are profile posts counted? Sometimes I also post to 68kmla from w3m on a low-powered SBC (so no Javascript).
Are there modern replacements for old PB 180 heatsinks, and how would you go about applying them? My preconceived notion is that heatsink technology has improved over the past 30-some years, and perhaps it would be beneficial to slap on new ones (performance boost[?], less risk of toasting). I don't plan on overclocking.
Wow, I've already achieved "Well-known member" status on this cult/amazing forum. I've only left 45 messages here and I'm probably not that well-known either! And to top that all off, I only own an LC, joined last summer, and am NOT an Apple fan at all. My Apple products are either hand-me-downs or vintage, because somewhere down the line Apple turned evil and stopped making products that last a long time.
Anyone know anything about that company called Mirror? AFAIK they made the Powervision, a mod for video-out-less PBs like the 170 to display on an external monitor, they also made CRTs.
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...
What’s the max voltage for PowerBook 140-style batteries?
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.
Can you, with modifications, compile Classilla for Mac OS 8.1? -
