My IIc's keyboard comes with this dual layer of rubbery sheets inbetween the keycaps and switches. A lot of the 'mushy' feel of typing on the keyboard was due to this thing, and removing it made the tactile response from the switches significantly better in my opinion. Do you all keep the spill...

Great to see so much IIc love! I just got my first ever IIc delivered in the mail today, and I *think* it has bad RAM, although it's hard to say for sure due to ROM v255. Do you have advice on good replacement chips to procure?

After a bit more tinkering, making the port number configurable and cleaning up the code, I cut something I'd like to call a stable release of macproxy (off of my fork of course; I hope the original author don't mind) here: https://github.com/rdmark/macproxy/releases/tag/v21.11 If you want to...

This book looks amazing. Ordered my copy!

Binary file downloading is now working as well, at least in Netscape 4.5 on Mac. I had to use a workaround with Flask sessions to retain the content-type header, which Flask always changes to text/html regardless of the original header. There may be some decorator or hook or something to achieve...

Figured out the easy way to get embedded images working! I tweaked the proxy logic to only modify the contents when content-type is 'text/html'. This way, any traditional embedded image (<img src="">) in traditional formats (jpeg, gig) work absolutely swimmingly on a higher-spec 68k Mac...

There, I pushed a few changes to my fork so that inline hyperlink URLs should now always be rewritten to the http protocol. It was just a matter of using beautifulsoup to modify the html in memory. I think this proxy is eminently usable at this point. The one major improvement I can think of...

There, I forked and improved the macproxy code a tiny bit to make it run with Python3 and venv (actually, very few changes had to be made.) https://github.com/rdmark/macproxy It's not consistently successful in translating all https requests to http. Some sites work fine, but others like...

Thanks for the tip, and while I respect what Sean has done here, I prefer to avoid messing with PHP if I can. ;) Will keep this one on the back burner for now.

So I've ran a few tests, and macproxy is close to being an excellent solution for very low-end machines, but it has two major drawbacks: For one, unlike WebOne is does not translate https requests to http, which means that any inline hyperlink on an https site will fail. You can still copy...

Thanks for tracking this down! I'll try it out later today.

Do you all have experience running HTTP proxy and transcoders to get modern web content into a shape that vintage web browsers can handle? After some cursory research, I found two active open source projects: WebOne and Browservice. The latter uses full on backend rendering, and passing images...

Yes, in the SE/30 for sure, and most likely the CC too (I just haven't seen anyone do it yet) as long as you find a good way to secure it in place in there. @PotatoFi prints and sells brackets for the SE + SE/30 to use with full-sized Pis. Something similar can be done for the Zero for sure.

When the Web UI goes down, are you able to otherwise use the network interface(s) on the Pi, say over ssh? The one suspicious message near the end there is about how the IPv6 address for eth0 is unreachable, which seems to indicate that there's something wrong with the networking, triggered when...

These logs don't show much RaSCSI activity apart from launching, so hard to say exactly what's going wrong I'm afraid. The one thing that stands out is a "under-voltage" warning, which could explain why RaSCSI isn't able to run reliably. Are you using a power supply rated for at least 2.5 amps?

How much disk space did you have left when you started the unzip, and roughly how large was the file(s) to unzip? The one thing I can imagine would bring down the Web UI like this is running out of disk space... (Although it could be something else too of course; I just can't think of anything.)...

Enjoy, and let us know if you run into issues or have improvement/feature suggestions!
