All G2 networks in SR SA have been shutdown till further notice

That means for ever.

Apart from the fact that I cannot choose this gorgeous G2 phone anymore, to play music on the road, BT, I will not be able to wonder how much technology was put in such a small phone
This is not Nostalgia because there's a lot of those phones that I used and they all need to be quote unquote smartphones now

Got a box of random ponies and I’m going to attempt to clean these up first.

Amazing. I just came across this 2010 clip of G4’s Attack of the Show where Kevin Pereira and Olivia Munn discuss a Blogspot page that a fan made. That fan was me! 😄

And yes, it’s still live: https://pereirawafflepyramid.blogspot.com

Personally, I would've likely shoved a #NUC alongside a #BDXL burner into the case and either turned it into some #Dock or some nifty & quiet #Linux #AllInOne, but either way #HughJeffreys made a cool #upcycling #video here...

Reached out to Brock over at @everymac with a bit of a mystery. I purchased a G4 iMac back in '22 at the VCFMW. However, the model # seems to be fairly unique. It's an M6498 which is correct, but it's an EMC 1987 which Googling doesn't seem to pull back much. Plus it came standard with 512MB of RAM which was also not standard. I'm guessing a BTO, but maybe the fediverse has more insight? #mac #g4 #imac #apple

Comcast’s NBCUniversal Deletes G4TV Videos from YouTube, Erasing Gaming History From X-Play and Attack of The Show

Why would a computer (specifically a #G4 tower) power off when a DVD is put in the drive? I'm trying to figure out what's happening to the power supply in this situation that's causing the behaviour, because it's probably a pretty good clue as to what I did wrong when I rewired it that's also causing it to turn off after running for 15-20 min.

And it's not the drive itself. I swapped in another one just to eliminate that variable. I'm fairly certain it's something wrong with the way I rewired the ATX power supply to adapt it to Apple's weird non-standard pinout.

No idea. Mounted the small rubber shroud for the rear fan from the Quicksilver, as opposed to the plastic shield that holds the fan in the Digital Audio, and I've mounted a 120mm fan on top pointing out, Intel cooler style. I don't honestly think heat is the issue, but I'd like to at least eliminate it as a variable (or hey, maybe it is the issue, and I can prevent losing another night to fighting with yet another cursed G4).

Starting to once again lose my taste for playing with old Macs (though there's always the possibility that it's a side effect of the modified ATX power supply).

It is entirely possible that what is actually happening is it's going to sleep, and then failing to wake up (which I think is a side effect of the modded ATX power supply). I've now slid the sleep timer in the Energy Saver panel to Never, but I'm too dumb and impatient to wait and see if this solves it, and I currently have OS9.2 installing to the IDE drive. Wish me luck, lol.

Here stranger have some flut art for your troubles

IT WORKED.

I did film the moment of truth, but all that happened was the same thing as before, the power button lit up for as long as I held it down with my finger. So I stopped filming, and then several seconds later, I heard what sounds like a fairly whiny unhealthy fan spin up, and I looked down and saw the obnoxiously RGB Corsair keyboard lit up.

I assumed nothing was happening, so didn't hold Cmd+Alt+O+F long enough to get into open firmware and boot via USB, so that's why I'm just getting the icon, I assume.

Actually now that I think of it, wouldn't it be a question mark icon if it were a matter of an HDD with no bootable OS? It might just be slowly booting off the USB as we speak cause I'm still seeing smiley Finder folder icon. ???
