The latest find was from my trip to Anchor Electronics to get the GPS receivers (a separate post once I test them out), and I found this battery pack labeled for iPhone 3G & 3GS which has the 30 pin that works on iPods! Once I found the right powered charger and charged up the battery it works great with my classic iPods.

New video is out!

Mail has been piling up so time to rip open some packages and take a look at a mix of smaller items to pimp some of my existing gear as well as a new acquisition or two.

Le Compaq Portable 486 illustre parfaitement une période charnière de l’histoire informatique.
Au début des années 1990, la mobilité signifiait transporter un ordinateur de près de 8 kg, doté d’un processeur 486 et d’une architecture proche d’un PC de bureau.

La fin de l’ère des machines à coudre !

Has anyone integrated the netbotz series (like a 320) with home-assistant.io or networkupstools.org or any open source DVRs ?

I have a couple of #Netbotz 320 from my #ewaste hookup that I am looking to use in my garage, connecting to our #HomeAssistant and the open source #DVR I'll be setting up. It would be cool & helpful to use the video camera feed along with the temp & moisture monitoring/trending.

For my second entry in #marchintosh is this #spicyPillow in a 2012 Mac Pro. IIRC I picked this up at #EFM #electronicsFleaMarket on the cheap, fully intended for a project but was packed up from the move. Unpacked the box this weekend, and noted the lid being pushed out – and upon opening noted the touchpad broken in half.

I opened it up & pulled out the spicy pillow, installing a spare battery I had on hand. Connected power, and it booted! The touchpad works, but to click/double click you have to push down to make the touchpad level while clicking/double clicking. Time to find a replacement touchpad, and when I do then also max out the RAM while installing an SSD.

For my first entry in #marchintosh I will post some pictures testing the Apple DVI to ADC adapters on the workbench.

Yep, they all worked!
