4 months ago, @nygl moved server instances, to aus.social. I immediately followed his new account, as we were both active in the #GlobalTalk community. Recently I realized I hadn't seen any posts or DMs from him since that change. Looking at his profile, it seems like he's been totally inactive. But I suspect that's not the case. I don't think I've given him reason to block me. What would explain this? Is there something else one needs to do when following an account that is migrated?

It's an older meme, but it checks out.

SUCCESS! Finally got the Macintosh 512Ke on #GlobalTalk ! I couldn't find a Phone Net box with a DB9 connector, and my attempts to bodge one together weren't working. Picked up a DB9 LocalTalk connector for less than $10. Now I'm ready for next year's #MARCHintosh , or #Apriltosh , or maybe #AprilApples (though I think LocalTalk only worked on the IIgs.)

I thought I would finally get the first Mac I ever owned onto #GlobalTalk for #MARCHintosh by picking up a set of (cheap) adapters to go from mini-DIN-8 (female) to DB-9 (male). While I can see traffic being sent and received from the AsantePrint box that connects the Mac over LocalTalk, no zones are visible and I suspect that I will have to make a crossover connection for the two essential pins. Ugh. So close.

@theirongiant @europlus Post your cool analog clocks!

@kalleboo Is this a possible bug in TalkCrawler Lite 1.1? There seems to be an ImageWriter in the "LikesOldMacs" zone, as shown in Chooser, but no icon shows up next to that item in TCL and it can't be clicked.
