Telmo 🦕<p>Something’s seriously wrong with my Macintosh Quadra 700 and my heart is pounding. 💔 It suddenly refuses to recognize any startup disk. The one that used to boot now throws errors 000000F 0000003 and 000000F 000000A on other Macs. Did my beloved Quadra 700 just die on me? 😢</p><p><a href="https://masto.pt/tags/RetroComputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RetroComputing</span></a> <a href="https://masto.pt/tags/Macintosh" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Macintosh</span></a> <a href="https://masto.pt/tags/VintageMac" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>VintageMac</span></a> <a href="https://masto.pt/tags/Quadra700" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Quadra700</span></a> <a href="https://masto.pt/tags/Apple" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Apple</span></a> <a href="https://masto.pt/tags/Marchintosh" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Marchintosh</span></a></p>

LikesOldMacs<p>Reclaimed the lab today 😱🧹🕷️🕸️🕷️🕸️</p><p>The cool weather inspired a windows-open vacuum, clean and semi-organize. There was still some stuff setup from <a href="https://bitbang.social/tags/marchintosh" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>marchintosh</span></a>, only 6 months later 😅 </p><p>Storing keyboards in bins freed up a lot of space and stacking the CRTs on top of those towers also saved space and my back!

paulrickards<p>As the name suggests, Anycast can also do live webcasting.. using RealVideo! You can push up to 768Kb/s to an external server or to its own internal Helix Server in glorious 320x240 🙃 And it works with VLC.</p><p>Maybe something to try for the next <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/MARCHintosh" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MARCHintosh</span></a> with the actual RealVideo Player.</p>

Karl Baron<p>One thing I have in mind is keeping it simple enough to make a series of videos for next <a href="https://bitbang.social/tags/MARCHintosh" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MARCHintosh</span></a> using it to introduce the very basics of Classic Mac OS Toolbox C programming - walking through what the framework does, and then showing some examples of adding buttons to windows that play sounds or show dialogs, and then opening up a Projector (version control system) database (repository) on <a href="https://bitbang.social/tags/GlobalTalk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GlobalTalk</span></a> for anyone else to add stuff in a collaborative project.</p>
