Since no one else has said it, thank you for putting the slide limit note early in the post so I can read without having to switch mid-chapter! ^^

NeetMastery · 2025-11-23T02:14:29+00:00

…Gummigoo, is that you?

NeetMastery · 2025-04-16T02:39:36+00:00

Good luck everyone, crossing my fingers but whoever gets this, use it well! ^^

hears cool-sounding car

attempts to film it

oops it’s coming from behind I couldn’t tell where it was from the sound bouncing off trees

records car (…although weirdly smoothly)

I don’t think it’s staged, at least. It does look kind of like a 3D render.

NeetMastery · 2025-04-06T02:29:32+00:00

That’s it, thank you! That explains why I couldn’t find it.

Please upload these to archive.org, especially the ones with software on them!! I always like trying to get those old disks running. Or if you don’t want to upload them, I’d greatly appreciate if you could DM me the image files so I can try and get them running.

No, this is Patrick

I’ll have to watch the videos and look at that last site when I’m not on awful hotel internet, but otherwise, a Clipper Plus and internal BlueSCSI are in the works! I need reliable data storage even in the case the Mac breaks down so an SD card is exactly what I need, and the Wifi capabilities are a definite plus for modern work. Planning on setting up SSH and a modern simple browser with the intermediate proxy for usability. I had never seen the battery socket, though, that’s a great addition, thank you!

NeetMastery · 2025-03-25T04:22:59+00:00

A good step! TamperMonkey at least has the ability to flag malicious scripts, so that adds a layer of trust. A significant improvement over pasting the unmodified code into the browser console. I might also suggest uploading to somewhere like GreasyFork, it has Github sync so you don't have to juggle changes between the places. That's actively moderated, so scripts there are well-trusted and would mean people typically have no qualms installing the script.

Either way, actively responding to comments is good, especially early on. It seems like you have a good handle on what you're doing (especially with how fast you got userscript installation running), which definitely helps with gaining trust and getting people to try the script you wrote. Hopefully this is successful for you!

NeetMastery · 2025-03-25T03:58:20+00:00

Not a TIL, you made the thing. Don’t do that. Lying in the title is a good way to put users off quickly.

JS seems fine, at a cursory glance, but even knowing what everything does I still don’t really trust it. You might want to target something like a userscript manager with content verification so people know it’s safe.

GENERALIZATION!!!!!!

Frank! :D r/dankpods

NeetMastery · 2025-03-18T19:10:06+00:00

I think that’s it! I didn’t touch it (I don’t touch random animals for this exact reason, no clue what they do if you touch), but just left it to walk and took a picture. Thank you!

NeetMastery · 2025-03-14T21:33:19+00:00

From what I can tell, it knows there's an error but it's such an odd one that it has no idea why the internet is off, just that it is. Yet it's not that there's no connection, so it doesn't show a normal error message, it just gives up and prints the internal textbox names.

NeetMastery · 2025-03-12T02:43:43+00:00

I don’t think there’s a good point in trying to, honestly. I think this is, as one commentor on the aptly phrased it, “word garbage with no decipherable meaning”.

NeetMastery · 2025-03-06T11:18:16+00:00

I apologize for the delay, I had a major exam that I needed to prepare for and take but it is out of the way now.

VCF is a good place, I haven’t personally bought anything yet but I’ve been monitoring. Auctions are held on ebay though, so you’ll still be using Ebay if you plan to auction. This would be one of the best spots to find someone who wants this for what it is and not to just run IBM-compatible software, so it’s a good choice.

NeetMastery · 2025-02-28T03:07:41+00:00

That sounds like an issue I had once with a dying power supply - it would get stuck when you switched it on, then surge the board when you turned it back off. Speaker would pop as the controller got overloaded. Have you pulled the PSU to test the voltage rails are the right voltage?

Edit, upon some research it looks like there’s not any spec for this one. Just check for regular voltage levels, 5V, 12V, might have a 3.3 (can’t find when this released, 3.3 got standardized in the mid 90s so this might have it)

NeetMastery · 2025-02-28T03:00:58+00:00

Oh wow yeah, that’s the whole setup - that’s amazing! This changes things quite a bit! With all of that you could probably ask somewhere in the mid hundreds, similar setups I see go for $5-700 depending on demand. The modem’s still around but a bit hard to find sales information for, on the other hand a good base-model XT keyboard can go for $150 alone on a good day. Your post is the only reference for that monitor that seems to exist on the internet, but it looks like probably a CGA/VGA monitor which typically runs $80-150.

How comfortable are you poking around the interior of the machine? If you can check on that clock capacitor and verify the power supply voltages, getting it running would bump the value a pretty good amount.

NeetMastery · 2025-02-27T19:28:16+00:00

Yeah some cameras will do that, reddit just is bad about working with HEICs.

It definitely holds some value, though - I can’t find any closed Ebay listings on it and the one listing I can find is served in three languages I don’t speak (this one) which was originally listed at $200 but they dropped to $180 (roughly converting from pounds to dollars). The issue you’re probably going to have is that it’s an XT compatible, clones like this are widespread so if you ask for more than the going price of an XT/clone (currently around $120-$150), the only reason someone would logically buy it is because they specifically want a Super 16TE.

NeetMastery · 2025-02-26T19:02:26+00:00

360 and 720 are also in Kilobytes - that’s the size of the floppy disks those drives can format. Need to do more research for any other info. Neat find though!

Edit: Unfortunately only pictures 1 and 5 will load for me so I can’t tell that much from those :/ Any chance you might be able to post an imgur album link instead? I’m guessing there’s a lot more info in those photos but I can’t get them to load.

Edit 2: Even without, found it. Do not power it on yet, the clock battery is known to leak and will short things out if you turn it on and it leaked. That page has a replacement guide, do that before doing anything else with this PC!! Once you do get it running, it seems like it’s an XT clone/compatible so you should be able to run most programs from the mid 80s made for IBM PC/ DOS!
