Announcing my third #MARCHintosh 2026 project - the MARCHintosh Canvas!

If you're familiar with Reddit's /r/place, pxls space, or Wplace, you’ll know what this is - a shared canvas anyone can place pixels onto in real-time.

Only this time, it's over the venerable AppleTalk protocol, with the public server accessible to anyone on #GlobalTalk :)

Feel free to drop by and leave your mark - available in the usual places (landisk, Blackbird) on BaroNet

Happy St. Patrick’s Day

Finally getting things cleaned up for #MARCHintosh

Three new #GlobalTalk printouts on my printer Sunny (zone BabCom) arrived in the last days!
Thank you to @RonsCompVids, @kalleboo and @stack (a first here, if I see it correctly!)

Got my second print via #GlobalTalk.

I put together a little map of the GlobalTalk endpoints by GeoIP. It'd be a fun mission to get at least one user in South America and Africa!

I did something fun for #MARCHintosh – the #netatalk file sharing suite now supports color icons on Classic Mac OS.

Special thanks to @nulleric for the inspiration and architecture for the feature, and @smallsco for further inspiration working together on troubleshooting a tangential icon bug.

More details in this thread.

The Dan Kottke signed Macintosh SE is cleaned up, upgraded, and back together. I’ll be floating around #GlobalTalk with it this weekend.

Running from now until Friday, March 13th, I need your help with some research I'm conducting. Full explanation in the survey. Let's have fun with this!

(Please share this link. The more responses, the better the data collection.)

Got my first print to my Netatalk -> CUPS -> PDF setup. We hung it on the fridge.
