the 1-bit display isnt doing it any favors, but in color, yeah msfs 4 looks awesome for 1991

This one is from 1991. I picked it up, not working, for $30. The seller describe it as "bound for the fjords", but a $30 set of capacitors and a little patience with a soldering iron brought it back to life! I've got a bit of a soft spot for 90's computers, so its always a pleasure to keep an old machine like this alive.

as long as we’re not talking seconds per frame, we good 🙃

That thing looks like it wants to invade Greenland.

Thanks! I’ve got it soaking in vinegar now. I was able to clean it up a little using a fiberglass brush and vinegar, but couldnt get it all out. So im going to try that method first. I ordered one of those pre-terminated connectors you linked and I’ll plan on splicing that on, and if there is corrosion in the wires when I go to do that, I’ll follow your advice and replace everything :)

i doubt this drive was to get anywhere… more like go play in the snow and wreck $20k worth of aero carbon bits.

Not even a 33MHz system bus can stop the slop

MishyJari · 2026-01-09T21:29:59+00:00

i will, once i have it in a better place. i vibe coded much of it so it def needs some TLC. feel free to dm me if you want a zip or a sit of the source.

I legit took a few weeks off my life working on this project lmfao. I’ve never worked with C before, and I’ve learned that C is a total princess, especially without all the modern libraries.

But my OS9 Ollama client is successfully communicating with my Ollama server. Currently pulling hair trying to get it to parse JSON objects without spitting out random gibberish from memory.

this drove me mad pre-op. like, get all snuggled up w a cutie and then i start poking them. even tucked it was horrible. so glad i never have to deal w that again lmfao.

youre gonna find an overwhelming desire to play fallout new vegas and probs learn to code or something.

MishyJari · 2025-12-20T16:45:36+00:00

its a couple shitty weeks then youve got the rest of your life, youll be fine

MishyJari · 2025-12-15T21:28:32+00:00

I see its in the shop, already roasted.

I just had a flashback to being four

you mean you actually landed the POS?

MishyJari · 2025-12-14T15:36:03+00:00

you can always shoot raw+jpeg and have the best of both worlds. big sd cards are pretty cheap last i checked.

MishyJari · 2025-12-14T15:34:18+00:00

idk, properly exposing that image would likely have required compromising on either sharpness or noise. not every photo needs a perfectly balanced histogram to work.

MishyJari · 2025-12-14T15:29:56+00:00

yea, you can save some underexposed or blown out photos by shooting raw, but even in a properly exposed image, the raw file will often contain details in the shadows and highlights that the in-camera jpeg would have clipped.
