    Oh my gosh!!! This brings back so many memories! When I was in college circa 1992 to 1994, the dorm I lived in was filled with Mac users who all used the (experimental!) dorm Ethernet and EtherTalk to share files and printers with each other. It was a little Mac community.

      Nothing could compare to the BBSes and if you were really lucky, usenet. There are newsgroups with posts to them going back to the early part of the 80s, like 84, 83, I think were the oldest ones I've found on google.
      The BBSes had a good messaging system very similar to the usenet groups. I know fidonet was one of them. There were others too.

    Wonderful video! I like how you equated it to the feeling of browsing around networks in the early days. I remember doing that in my dorm room, never knowing what kind of cool stuff I was going to find!

    I have a handful of working G3's and iMac G4's that I came into possession of some time back, despite having virtually no adult experience with Mac environments. I'm kinda tempted to jump in on this shenanigans.

    Haha, wow, people were saying "hi" to me in chat but I didn't ever see it because of lag or something

    I see me in there! Shout out from 68k Mac Club! That "Hackers Cast" image was mine. :)

      cool image from a cool movie! I could not even open it on my 2024 PC after uploading it via FTP. Needed help from a modern mac head!

    Great video! This feels like Hotline for even older Macs. I don’t have any pre-PowerPC Macs anymore, and I wonder if it would work across VMs.

    • @1BitFeverDreams

      I never used hotline when it was a thing in the 90's, but I did use it in the mid 00's off of my windows XP pc while I was starting up the retro mac thing BIG time. There were INSANE servers, I'm thinking of one which disappeared before I could siphon it all. I had monthly download internet service bandwidth caps back then that were in play for this operation...

    So cool!!! I have a Color Classic with a wired Ethernet card attached to my network. I've been looking for some kind of network use for it, and this just may be something to do with it!

    This looks so fun! Wish I had time to get my SE/30 on there.

      I updated the description with a guide to get the QEMU emulator on there. I'm running it 24/7 currently from my win11 pc

    Love it. Go #GlobalTalk! I’ve been having issues connecting to your machine, I’ll try again tonight

    • @1BitFeverDreams

      you're not the only one. I spent a good chunk being under the wrong impression I was online last night but the "network" thing was set wrong (it goes back to the wrong setting every other boot). Gotta do a diligent routine now in setting stuff in 4 different places to make sure it gets connected and stays that way.

    I'm looking forward to getting my G4 iMac online so I can try this out! One thing I've been really looking forward to is running a Hotline server again, even if nobody checks into it.

    Never did any dorm room browsing, but seeing all sorts of goodies in random folders was very reminiscent of my times in the 00s and 10s when we'd hit up local LAN parties and browse the random shares that were just there on the network. Still have plenty of fun things (and garbage) on old drives and CDr/DVD-R media from back then....Good times. 😆
    Might have to tinker with my old world trio when I get myself situated again...This seems pretty fun.

      check the description for the links. this is still early days, more complete guides are coming. But the links are what got me to my finish line.

    I love the QSL card. I got a very strong Ham vibe from this, so it doesn't surprise me that ther'd be overlap! 73 de SA5FTP
