You know what? No.

I'm making preparations for when that cable gets here. Whether the universe likes it or not, I'm STILL making progress one way or another!

#Hackintosh #Optiplex project is on hold yet again for the dumbest reason.

This display only has one #Displayport port and I need a mini displayport to #VGA adapter if I want to keep using it with my laptop.

This is the only major complaint I have with dailying old tech; needing ten-thousand adapters for e v e r y t h i n g .

At least it's all #repairable, though.

"Alrighty! The fidget spinner has been properly greased and is ready to go once more. Now, what do I work on next?"

...says the void-aberration staring down an #Optiplex they planned to turn into a #hackintosh ages ago but never gave their self the time to do so.

OK, project list.

1. Learn C++ [ongoing],

2. Organize & convert a thousand tabs of miscellaneous research I never sorted over the years, to pdfs [ongoing. Priority: 1],

3. Sort over 7 TB's of backups scattered across various scavenged SSD's & HDD's without having a single place to store everything and sort from there [ongoing],

4. OptiPlex Hackintosh [paused],

5. LITERALLY DRIVE MYSELF INSANE trying to build a UEFI-supported BIOS image for a ThinkStation D20, knowing full well I'm nowhere near skilled enough to pull something like that off yet [not started],

6. Bunny robot [could be a fun break from the madness, but not started],

7. Learn Blender to make my custom #protogen model [paused because OpenGL 4.8 support doesn't exist for this machine apparently. Workaround is needed],

8. Hack into a Wi-Fi router I bought specifically for this purpose [paused, but sounds like fun. Priority Update: 2],

9. Protogen helmet with a built-in Pi 4 B or 5 that has multiboot EFI support [paused], and

10. Build my own Operating System with a similar design philosophy to Plan9 for the heck of it [surprisingly, started on the researching phase].

...and then comes the part of documenting my journey.

These notebooks are about to get a lot of use, granted I don't keep grappling with getting stuck to one screen all the time. -w-'

Trying to get the Dell Inspiron with Windoze 10 to get the ACPI to make it a Hackintosh, not a good experience:

- Running oh so slow.
- No Internet connection.
- Micro$lop wanting me to register my Micro$lop account.
- Can’t enter more than 3 characters in a search in Firefox.

It just sucks! #microslop #hackintosh

Attempted to install Mac OS X (10.0) on a Wii. Sadly my allocated time for hackerspace visit (K-Space.ee) ended before the installer managed to even start as I had to go home...
