FF Dynasty is my middle son's favorite too and what he uses on he and his older brothers imac to watch his youtube kids account ( currently obsessed with electric motorcycles :LOL: ) but I think he likes FFD most because of the colorful theme options :D he has access to (He is 6). I find my...

If you stick with legacy macos, there are some great still-supported browsers. My favs are Basilisk and Jazzny's Powerfox that was forked from Basilisk. Powerfox focuses on earlier PPC and Intel macos but works just fine on newer old macos like El Cap and Catalina; effectively macos...

Well I’m sure someone on here could put them into a build. Or maybe a charity local to you could use them. I do rebuild boxes & laptops as I find them and donate them to my local Catholic charity but I don’t have anything that takes ddr4 lol (I mean other than my own box which has 32gb already)...

You could run a current linux distro like MX or Mint with uber lightweight xfce desktop environment. Im posting this on my 08 mb running MX25+xfce Pretty snappy for a C2D ear mb :)

Anytime. One other tip that is IMHO important to consider is magnetism. Screw drivers, bits etc. If you can get them magnetized, do it. There is nothing worse than dropping a tiny, proprietary screw and having to go find it (if you can) lol. Sometimes you cant buy what you want magnetized and...

I didn’t buy a kit. It’s just stuff & tools etc that I have acquired over the past 20 years or so initially for working with musical equipment guts. Thinking about what I use and touch every time on my bench is below.I know you said that you have soldering stuff but I’ll add this for other...

This was my thought too - the water flows both ways here. Considering how popular Discord is in 2026 and in regards to promoting an old format like forums like it’s still 1998, Discord is a must have tool to bring visibility to that format with the very age demographic of would be future...

Oh I’m sure lol. It was a pretty hilarious title to run across :D

Hi and welcome :)

I like this a lot. I think it speaks to the freedom of choice which is very important. As creative & thoughtful people, we fortunately have the choice to use it or not. I can absolutely envision a subculture of sorts that is AI free - everything is done by a human ... which is awesome. Its...

I did this IRL as well (no I did not take a picture LOL derp). It worked really well except you have to worry about squishing the feet as I am 6'4" 280 pounds which those are not really designed to support I dont think LOL. I also tend to land pretty hard on chairs being taller. I fixed this by...

Vibe coding & AI has opened the gate, allowing enthusiast laymen to participate in the learning and creation process of apps where before it was gate kept … not by people rather by life or bandwidth or learning style etc. For these folks, AI and LLMs are an amazing learning and productivity tool...

I am currently at El Cap on the 1,1. This was many years ago at this point but I used the Piker installer to get up to 10.11.6. Everything works great except you need to turn off updates. I forget which one but one of them will brick the machine lol. 😂

I assumed all the cMPs used delidded cpus (I only have the 1,1). Yep they sure do use standard LGA771 sockets for lidded CPUs. Well shoot I was looking forward to delidding them but aside from feeling stupid for not researching that, this is great news for pushing this upgrade forward :) Better...

Very nice. I have a set of clover town cpus to bring my core count up from 4 to 8 on my 1,1 but I need to get around to delidding them first - Eventually lol. I have to go cut down a tree on my parents property first though. Just got done sharpening the chain and attaching my 20” bar to my 60cc...

I was missing my cMP 1,1 boot screen so I installed a Mac HD5770 into that macpro. I also took the Radeon apart prior and cleaned/repasted the gpu. I also thought my a1117 PMG5 didn’t have enough rgb, so I installed a NOS 2004-5 Fantec Spectrum fan card. Those HD5770s are so cheap I think I’ll...

I love @Kai Robinson ’s TD UT99 and Q3A servers. When I have some free time I connect for some bot roasting DM. :)

Back in February on a trip to the dump, I found a junked Presario box with no case (just the frame) and a broken vga port in the recycling box. I didn’t know if it worked or not but figured if anything, the dvd burners and era bobs n’ bits would be worth the scoop. I got around to cleaning &...

Updated MX23 to MX25 on my 2008 unibody MacBook.

I found some old 2006 footage of an Alibi Crawl music festival my then band played. I used my Powermac G5+Final Cut Studio to cut up the single video file into individual songs.
