    8 ohm for 16 ohm speaker in Workgroup Server 9150

    If I couldn’t find the right speaker I think I’d try a 5w rated 8ohm resistor in series with the 8ohm speaker which would present a 16ohm load the power amp is looking for. You’d get a drop in volume technically because you’re cutting everything in half (3w to 1.5w) but in human ear terms I...

    Ahh boy they get seedy that big but man they’re such fast growers that you miss one and and boom - football sized squash lol. I had a fat zucchini like that in my garden who I scooped all the seeds out and shredded into a vegetable rice pilaf.

    G4 iMac and its intense heat. A brainstorm.

    I like the idea of a slot loading slimline more actually because to your point, you could 3D print a replacement stationary door with a slot & still retain the space savings for additional fans. I don’t currently own a 3d printer but if it was me, I’d have fun with different colors like a...

    G4 iMac and its intense heat. A brainstorm.

    Would they be powerful enough to kick open the drive flap though? I have a few external slimlines but the ones I have really just pop open and don’t manually extend out on their own.

    Sat. Aug. 1st: ABQ Retro Computers Summertime Meetup

    Did you guys make the switch to JTCC in 2024? I recall there was a venue issue & swap that year. It’s been a few years since last time I made it but looking forward to it this year. My oldest and middle kids are old enough (9 & 6.75) that they might be interested in tagging along and looking at...

    iMac G4 M6498 - Anything to Watch For?

    Well, ground domestic shipping estimator on their site was around $13 bucks to NM from FL, so all in if I picked up three, I’d be paying around $5.30 each which isn’t bad. Thanks for the link! :geek:

    Weird.. post deletion?

    With how this site is managed (coming from massive data losses of other platforms) including publicly elected, non-permanent, rotating leadership structure, I highly doubt any shenanigans would ever intentionally occur. Integrity is incredibly high here and with that trust of admins & site...

    Hello!

    Welcome to TD :) I have an 08 aluminum MB and 09 MBP which I still DD (typing this on). The 08 I have El Cap on it and this 09 I run MX25. I enjoy them both thoroughly.

    Man to get free water around here, you have to drill a well at about 460ft which for a fully turnkey system is about 30-32k usd all in. Not doing that anytime soon 😂 I’d love to see the space producing! One Of the coolest permaculture gardens I’ve seen was in the UK -Huw Richards. It seems like...

    Here’s an 2026 update on my garden. I am very happy with it this year. I am getting some great growth this year and despite the rest of the nation having some monster El Niño heat and humidity, in New Mexico we are getting rather moderate heat with added moisture for this time of year which...

    iMac G4 M6498 - Anything to Watch For?

    The insides of these are pretty straight forward but it is easy to forget reconnecting a cable during reassembly (last time I had one open to swap a fan, I forgot to reconnect the power to the cdrom drive LOL :p. Anyways, the usual maintenance applies with these ie: blow out the case, clean &...

    Maclock & pico-mac-nano REVIEW (video)

    This came across my feed last night. Great video :) Makes me want a Maclock for one of my office shelves even with its subtle inaccuracies. If I was on my game, I would've asked my better half for one for Fathers day. Doh! Oh well, there's always my birthday I guess :)

    Would This BlueTooth Device Work With My G4 MDD?

    It looks like this process can work. There’s a TD thread on it back from 2024.
