for ICs that far gone.. I'd honestly just cut the legs with a nipper, remove the package, and then slide the remaining legs off the board with flux and solder.

pi zero and pico are two different things

from what I understand... there is no place to connect an antenna to the pico. otherwise.. it would be a great idea :) outside the scope of the thread I think ;) you could... but why would you? lots of pain for little gain. just use an SD extender if you need to expose the slot.

aren't the ADB ports usually fused? Maybe not on the SE though.

SCSI to SATA adapters do exist, but they're rather expensive and very overkill for the SCSI-1 bus in a 68k mac.

good work. bodges will get easier over time. i dunno what you mean by that. what's an "external power bridger"? start simple. remove the disk, remove the bluescsi. power on. what do you see? share a good photo. then, try to boot from a floppy disk, share a good photo of that. if you press...

the scratches are likely in the plastic polarizer... which is replaceable. but not for the faint of heart...

the ch products rollermice have an apple keyboard 1 / aek1 style curve... but otherwise don't match I just saw this one too:

looks good... but you gotta pick a better font for the small text! have you flipped thru the various human interface guidelines?

I actually think “OmniSlop” is the most appropriate name for this project, specifically because it’s AI-generated. If you look at what this system is doing—combining an AppleTalk router, MacIP gateway, AFP server, and potentially more—it’s not something that emerged from a single, clean...

number one probably just needs a deep clean and recap. scrub or blow all the dust off, remove the old surface mount capacitors... clean up the leaked electrolyte. number two will need more work. clean the dust off the board, remove the battery crust... neutralize the corrosion with white...

iisi i think. are you SURE your glu is busted?

pb170 schematics here. good starting point... i think it's supposed to be ADB btw
