Pico-mac with audio has been published github.com/retrotheory/... This is for Pico 2, not tested on Pico 1. PWM or DAC based audio configure at build time. Includes work on the submodule github.com/retrotheory/... ,updated for 464K support and patched audio addressing.

PicoMac Pico2 / 464K with Audio Patched the ROM too override of memory size, and skip memory test. Audio Output is 8bit PWM at 22,254 Hz, One sample per scanline, 3-bit volume control (0-7) via VIA Port A bits 0-2 With 464K I had to do shenanigans to get sound buffer in 'right place'

Ok, I have brought BigMaclock to After Dark screensaver github.com/retrotheory/... Thanks @paulrickards.bsky.social for the AD idea and thanks @kalleboo.bsky.social for pointer on what I was doing wrong. Now with Inversion Timer (phosphor protection) Thanks for idea @thetechknight.bsky.social

Failing hard at this, trying to convert my BigMaclock to screensaver module for After Dark and I cannot get it to animate/update , so it just shows the static time. I think I'm right setting Cals 1 resource to 0x0f , but I think AD is catching quickdraw updates , need to find more info

Sometimes my Macs just wont Appletalk to each other. SE/30 gets quite cross with its older sibling. #MARCHintosh

Another #MARCHintosh project, a serial digital multimeter logger , in this case a UT61E. Its very work in progress and tough work for the 68000 of the Macintosh Plus.

More on what @mac84.bsky.social suggested, temp being a weather symbol. Making a weather symbol in 5x7 'pixels' is kinda meh. So I though make it the same width as the DAY, so 18x11. It needs some work , not bad for first pass. At the moment , its click to change. And saves to prefs.

YES!

Sending Mac vibes for #MARCHintosh

Give github.com/retrotheory/... BigMaclock a try, It supports dynamic pixel sizing so you can run it on a larger screen. #MARCHintosh

Instead of turning a clock into a vintage Mac, I turned a vintage Mac into a clock!, I though it would be fun given its #MARCHintosh The program can be downloaded here: github.com/retrotheory/... It supports US/EU month day order AM/PM, Invert display, 'grey' background and alarm function

At 40 years old, this Macintosh Plus is officially living its best life: no social media, no notifications, and zero concept of "The Cloud"—just a physical box of floppies and dreams

Wow!

Picked up an old soldering station from a junk yard in Mos Eisley, seems to be stuck in Aurebesh mode.

Late 1960s early 1970s analog electronics was so colourful.
