  1. While waiting for parts for the #SE30 , I couldn't resist playing around with @maczydeco 's Mini vMac for iOS.

    With some changes to the code, each virtual Mac Plus pixel is super crisp, which makes it almost feel like the real thing (I know, I know, blasphemy!)

  2. Seems like I'm now at number 12 on that page, but adjusting the cutoff brightness doesn't help, so I guess I'm gonna have check some more resistors on the analog board 😓

    Not knowing much about electronics + reading all the warnings about the high voltage stuff is kind of nerve-racking, so I'll take it slowly.

  3. It's #marchintosh2024 , so time to pick up where I left with the #SE30 last year.

    Following instructions from bylenga.ddns.net/SE30%20repair , I replaced some diodes and a resistor on the analog board, and I got a bit further: no more black screen, but some glorious strange patterns. At least the CRT seems to work!

  4. #Bolo is a classic tank game that was ported to the #Macintosh from an inital version on the #BBCMicro. Let's take a quick dive into a single-player world to get our feet wet—and maybe try multiplayer next time?

  5. So I finally got ahold of at least two classic Mac malware for this year’s #MARCHintosh however I just need to set up an emulator with test files, find a way to debug the emulator as I use it and then everything should be good to go!

    Does Mini vMac or Basilisk II have some sort of debugging thing where I can see stuff happening “internally” as I do stuff? I know MAME has something sort of like this if I recall correctly and the Apple II emulator I used for #Appril2 had a similar function I think too.

    I wanna debug stuff to see if anything changes while I run the malware
