For me, LM Studio on Fedora + Gemma 4 didn't work yesterday afternoon with the release, but worked this morning after the runtimes updated. In fact - there are new runtime updates now as I check again.

I briefly put a Pentium MMX 200MHz system in service a few years back to bridge my parents to their neighbor's WiFi (with consent of course) when their DSL line was down for a few days. I installed a PCI Ethernet and WiFi card, booted into OpenBSD, and amazingly it was fast enough to get them through the downtime. :)

I happen to have one of those 600MHz chips on my bench currently! It's a K6-2+ that has had the remaining 128KB cache unlocked, making it a K6-3+. It is indeed a speedy chip, performing somewhere above a Pentium II-450 according to Speedsys.

Do you recall how long you used the platform or your next upgrade choice? :)

There's a photo towards the end which shows the equipment in the truck, it seems to be about the size of a mini fridge or a half rack.

The PS2's USB port is limited to 1.1 speeds so unfortunately it's much slower than the CD interface. The phat models have an internal IDE port that is trivally converted to SATA though, and is plenty fast with an SSD!

There's "MinWin", I wish this could be used as the foundation for a consumer Windows OS.

I've been thinking about getting into retro Apple laptops! I'm wanting to start with either a Tangerine iBook or the glossy white MacBook A1181.

Power Mac G4 Cube design is something unique. I was thinking of getting a full set with a keyboard, mouse, speakers, and monitor.

We could flash the prompt character so user knows the keypress was received. Someone could still count the number of flashes but the number of characters wouldn't be revealed persistently. I think no feedback at all is usually best though.

> Does that mean a third-party cable could handle more, or is there some other limitation? The wording seems a bit odd, no?

I think it means "we're including the cable in the box" and "high-res only works when it's wired, not wireless".
