    Middle Norway checking in

    Hi & welcome! I always loved the thought of hanging out in & eating/drinking my way through Norway/Scandinavia after watching this cooking show many years ago. Something about eating atop a fjord next to a wood fire that captivates my senses and feels like home...

    2022 PowerPC Challenge!

    I had a weird thing happen this evening. I made a PPCC 2022 ibook vid in Snapz X2 and exported to quicktime 7.7. No problem, the vid & all audio plays fine. I then upload this to YT and the mic audio is absent - ibook screen cap audio is there but mic audio is not. Very weird - anyhow, I decide...

    2008 iMac 24” Restoration Journey

    GPU issues creep all the way back to the original 24" 2006 white Intel imac and is heat related. In these 2006-2008 designs, the GPU heatsink is right up against the back of the LCD screen & airflow in these even when clean isn't great. When I originally had artifcating and failure on my 24"...

    Fat Head dough

    Ok here’s some pics. Ok first impressions - it’s not terrible. It cops that thin crust vibe visually. Flavor - it’s surprisingly inert. You’d think with all that dairy that it would have more flavor but truthfully, not much going on there aside from some toasted cheese notes (kinda). I put...

    Fat Head dough

    Hey Fat Heads. Anyone into this dough? My better half has me on low carb once again (very very sad times as I love to make velvety smooth doughs, bake breads etc.) so for Pizza Friday with my boys(wife is out hanging out with her girlfriends) I am making them a normal pizza & for myself, I am...

    2022 PowerPC Challenge!

    Wow, your app flies on PowerPC. Great work. Messaging individual people would be an awesome feature. I like to curse at those TD discord moderators privately :) Today's PowerPC fun - Playing last weeks MacYak in Tenfivetube - surprising how smooth (no slide show) it is with such an old YT...

    My G4 baby, PPC G4 MDD

    They are & work so well in PowerBooks. I have an Acard pci sata card that I use for os9 (currently not in a box) & a couple flashed sil3512 pci cards for OSX in my g4 powermacs. I agree they do make a difference vs slapping on a pata/Sata adapter & calling it a day but hey, no shame in that...

    Apple 23" ADC Cinema Display Hinge and Kickstand Replacement

    The plastics were intact and fine - the alloy behind them is what snapped on my 17". They are very fragile - I think because they were designed too small outright. A higher mass hinge while heavier would have worn better.

    Dual 2.0GHz PowerMac G5 Thermal Calibration not slowing down fans

    Ahh man that is a drag. Could it be the version of software? Maybe try the earlier 2.5.7 (I think thats right lol) or a later revision? Its worth a shot.

    Apple 23" ADC Cinema Display Hinge and Kickstand Replacement

    The alloy used in these ADC acrylic cinema displays stinks. I seriously think the plastic is stronger than the alloy used (in the amounts it was used).

    Dual 2.0GHz PowerMac G5 Thermal Calibration not slowing down fans

    well, lots of pmg5 owners use the software and if you replaced the fan, that rules those bits out as likely points of failure which leaves the thermal sensor. I’d unplug the thing, reboot and see if mach10 mega fan speed goes away.

    Dual 2.0GHz PowerMac G5 Thermal Calibration not slowing down fans

    I wonder if the thermal sensor in those areas is failing. Unplug it & recalibrate - see if the fan behaves.

    Apple 23" ADC Cinema Display Hinge and Kickstand Replacement

    I have a number of 23” adc but luckily no hinge issues. I did inherit a 17” with snapped hinge. My fix was $1 worth of epoxy injected into the break area & cured. It holds it weight fine but I doubt I’d be able to get it back apart now. 🙂

    2022 PowerPC Challenge!

    That’s not cheating, that’s just having an awesome powermac. I have a DC 2ghz a1117 & it is quite snappy. I can only imagine a quad. You should buy your brother some beers for the gift. 🙂

    2022 PowerPC Challenge!

    Very nice. I am using it on my 1.33ghz ibook g4 and I think it is a bit snappier than DiscordPPC1.3. Looking at Activity monitor, it definitely enjoys munching on the single cpu (evidenced by text/typing lag), but I bet will be very nice on my multi-cpu/core PowerPC powermacs. I realize reading...

    I have had no issues with photos in DiscordPPC. For emoji support, you need to copy the 2 fonts symbola.ttf and symbola_hint.ttf to /Library/Fonts - although I did notice that recently with v1.3 that while the blue ?'s are gone, emojis are empty despite dropping the symbola files where it needs...
