It has just struck midnight here in Japan. We are now celebrating the arrival of 2022. 🥳 I would like to offer my sincere appreciation to all of you who have kindly joined TinkerDifferent and make it better each and every day with each and every post. Despite COVID and all the negatives...

Since not a single person took time to answer my previous mentions of the fact that PPC Macs have SSL issues when browsing modern websites today, I take it from your post that most people don't really care about that now because we have Discord? :-) Seriously, it would seem no one has a real...

My mid-2015 15" MBP Retina is now considered a very low end Mac, but it's still my daily driver. My left speaker has been bad for about a year, and recently I had enough and decided to swap it out. I replaced the other speaker too since you have to teardown the whole machine to replace...

Yes, down to 9600.

I love my 2100, and mine is a 2000 on front too. I even have the built-in serial board so you can plug in a serial cable without any adapter. But it's been years since I tried connecting it to a vintage Mac via NCU (regular and patched version). I can connect and communicate, but for some...

It would seem that the greater challenge is to get replies during the holidays! 😜 Of course, I understand why. It's freezing here in Japan right now (snowed today), but in Australia I see the weather is just fine! Enjoy those warm days, Bruce! 🌞

@Branchus The description of this challenge says the following... But like I said in an earlier post, most websites have modern SSL incompatible with even the latest version of the Classilla web browser. Since "a website" is mentioned in that description of the challenge, is there a web...

And a "challenge" it certainly is, at least if you do a lot of web work and need to connect to modern websites with SSL. One of my 1.3GHz 1.5MB RAM G4 Cubes has sat right next to my 5K iMac at the office for years, but I use it less and less these days because I like to use OS 9.2 on it and the...

@Kai Robinson, you are in fact The Real Santa... This is going to be an incredible build, folks! 🎄🎅🏼 🌟

Speedometer experts, perhaps the obvious is eluding me, but how can I easily MERGE separate Results files? I have been spending hours doing benchmarks and saving results as separate files, but now when I try to compare with the main results files (which has multiple Macs inside) I can't because...

Thanks. I just watched but didn't find links to what he used, so I put a comment under his video.

I've not maxed my Mystic "baby" out when it comes to RAM because (a) I have 36MB now, which is really all you need unless you are running OS 8 and some RAM heavy apps like Photoshop to do more modern style work with huge files (unlikely), and (b) my good friend @Kay K.M.Mods told me he has done...

I came across this MacRumors thread from 2016 today: https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/ssd-in-a-g4-cube-heres-a-bracket.1981819/ Any of you have experience with 120GB SSDs in the G4 Cube? I'm curious because one of my 120GB IDE drives died this week so I am mulling a more modern alternative...

I'm rather surprised I'm the first person to ever make a Macintosh Garden request! Oh well, it must start with someone, right? The Garden currently has versions 1.7 and 1.9 of Clockometer, but Archive.org shows there was a newer version 2.0.3 too...

Thank you for watching and for sharing your thoughts! Yes, the Noctua 80mm fan makes a noticeable difference insofar as the frequency of the noise is lower, versus the higher pitched sound of the stock fan. When I do my SCSI to SD card HDD replacement video, everyone can then see the real...

Keep your beloved CC cool, semi-quiet and with slightly less current consumption too! Currently, the VGA Mod (with discussion about the 13" Hi-rez mod) and Spicy O'Clock Overclocking videos are in the works!

This video shows display adjustments for the 128/512K/Plus (and earlier in that same video you can see board variants too):

DeoxIT D5 on the board edge connector?

Which implies if you poke it again, the video should return to its problem state, correct?
