  1. I’m confused about the #TashTalk. What comes out the non-LocalTalk end? What does a rpi or similar host need to implement to talk to other devices?

    (The thing’s not really for me, anyway; I’m more EtherTalk-inclined; I’m just looking to understand better.)

  2. I’ve been rebuilding a #RaspberryPi installation that supports my classic Mac habit 😄

    I used to use the awesome #MacIPGW image which includes a ton of pre-configured software like #netatalk. But it hasn’t been updated in a while so I used it as excuse to start from scratch.

    I used this Pi Zero W as my starting point. HDMI video stopped working on it for unknown reasons. I added an Ethernet/USB hub hat and a #TashTalk 2 hat for #LocalTalk devices.

  3. Got a #TashTalk hat for the Raspberry Pi which should allow it to talk natively with LocalTalk networks. I think (hope) this enables some cool AppleTalk functionality. Super simple build.
