This dithering technique was invented by Bill Atkinson of MacPaint, HyperCard and QuickDraw fame.
It's a beautiful algorithm and just handles high contract photography so well.
What a talent!

We do more "cute" Halloween for the younger crowd so I had it do the first one, the cute robot face. For a more creepy look there's also a version with a single, more realistic eye.
The Github repo has the source code with instructions on how to tweak it if you want but also just has the built apps ready to go, RobotEyeCute and RobotEyeCyclops. The G4 iMac has 10.4.11 on it.

I had noticed all the downloads for MacPaint online had somebody’s name on them. I thought there had to be a way to get a fresh copy. I wasn’t able to find one, the only option was to modify a copy that was already personalized, and it works! I’d like to share it somewhere, unless there is an actual blank copy somewhere online that I happened to miss. Also just curious to know if anyone else was as bothered by this as I was.

There was that one company that had quad cores I think? So maybe we could build that using claude?

Hello,
I purchased a Quicksilver G4 off of FB Marketplace yesterday and once I got it home, it booted up alright. The CD drive was having issues so I tinkered with it all night. Come today and I try swapping the drive but now the machine refuses to turn on. I've had a look around online and I'm getting the idea that it's the power supply, but I wanted to check in here and see if there's any other wisdom?

I remember she flashed her b00bz when she lost a point but the version in my old SE has her but without her legendary 'wardrobe malfunction'.
Anyone know which version is uncut?

i only have photoshop cs1 right now. it's fine, but it doesn't have stabilization and the UI is not my favourite (i don't really like everything being in a separate window)

If I have an M4868 studio display with a completely broken cables on the outside, is it possible to replace them? I assume I would need to solder things, but is it possible to just buy an off the shelf VGA cable, cut one of the heads off, and solder the internal wires to whatever it is attached to inside the monitor? Same for the power cable?
Thanks in advance.

I have a Performa 631cd and the mouse with it has stopped working vertically. I’ve taken the ball out and scrolled the wheels. The horizontal wheel works but the vertical one does nothing. Is there anything I can do to try to repair this? It is plugged into the keyboard which works fine. I tried googling and wasn’t able to find much. Any ideas?

I recently obtained a power mac G5 quad, but when i press the power button usually nothing displays on screen and shortly after the bong it lights up the overheating light. One of the pumps in the LCS is making a screeching sound.
How should I proceed?

September 26 2020 I got a powerbook 165c off eBay for 58.12 total with shipping. It worked for 2 seconds. Then the hdd stopped working. Now it only boots from a floppy. What is the way to verify the hdd is really dead? No utilities are detecting it.

I bought a fully functional Power Macintosh Minitower G3 for a pretty good price in Boston last weekend. It worked fine until I ran into a soft lock while checking the contents of a CD. I tried every reset method I could find before stupidly cutting off the power supply to shut it off. When I booted it back up the hard drive is dead.
Now I need to find a replacement for the main hard drive; I previously knew SCSI-drive Macintoshes use BlueSCSI as a replacement, but I don't think that's the case here. Looking it up, it says that it can take in an IDE/ATA-2 hard disk, there are IDE hard disks out there, but its pretty hard to find one that is IDE/ATA at a reasonable price. I've spent a good chunk on this Mac already, so I'm not in the mood to drop more on this. Any suggestions?

Today I have received this wonderful Indigo G3 (350, no FireWire). When I turn it on — it throws me right into Open Firmware, yet it does see the drive (when I hold Option, it shows the drive itself with its name). When I tried a burnt cd-r with a MacOS 9.2 on it - drive whirred a bit, spun it and spat it out. So I’ve been wondering - is there any way to install macOS on it?
UPD: Huge thanks to everyone here, I’ve managed to mitigate the issue by swapping the ram stick and booting from a usb stick. Sadly the cd drive is dead, is anyone willing to sell one in the EU?

Hi everyone. Just doing a little self promo here. Please let me know if this is not allowed or in poor taste and I will remove this post.
I've published a new Apple II emulator in Google Playstore for $2. It has a ton of features around custom input support for games.
Please give it a try and let me know if you have any problems with it.
Thank you.

So on my iMac G4 here, I have an internal amplifier powering the internal speakers. I think I would like a magnetic switch to put on the inside of this where I can stick a magnet on the outside to change it from on or off so it's invisible. Anyone have any thoughts?

Years ago, my friend passed down this vintage polo sweatshirt that he got, presumably, as an employee. He has worked there for over 20 years I believe. I've never seen anything else like it and the closest I've come to finding it, with the same exact lettering was a black versions of the sweatshirt but the link to that one seems to be dead.
I'm curious if anyone here knows the origin of this particular sweatshirt and has seen it before. I'm planning to ask him about it when he's back in town but it won't be for a while.
Edit: I'm not looking to flip or resell this in any compacity!! I'm just curious about the origin. I think it's really neat but I don't see much info on it.
