Last post by Goujer - December 10, 2025, 06:28:43 PMQuote from: VonDaab on November 23, 2025, 06:45:53 AMFinally made space on my messy project bench, so I can have something else than just heaps of unfinished console projects.
iMac that I've had since 2005? 06? Hadn't booted it in probably 10 years, and this silly thing just powers on without issue. Still, I installed a pirated OSX Panther on it long ago, and its clearly not running optimal on that, after all 1998 hardware trying to run a 2003 OS. I should look into downgrading it down to OS 9, as what it was originally running.
Pretty silly that it supports a modern-ish bluetooth keyboard just like that.
Those old iMacs and eMacs die hard, they're like tanks.

Shame, it's fun otherwise. (Might need to draw some of the Windows-tans in it)

Tbh, I wouldn't mind it, if it wasn't tainted by that copilot logo.
And the creeper.

Last post by Bella - November 22, 2025, 01:01:16 AMEhh, the industrial controllers will exist as extras at least. I somehow missed the pdp-5 & coast guard connection? I'm interested to see what you'll cook up!
Of course you would like MADM-tan, she's pretty much your type of character (by which I mean IAS-tan scaled up on the y axis).

With the whole rumour mill about Discord going public, there isn't really any other path than dropping it alltogether.
Shudder to think of what's going to happen when discord goes public. Maybe I'm paranoid but I'm expecting ads & an NSFW ban/censorship in servers since they seem to want to be more of a social media site than a chat application. And we know how social media is.

And I think Reikart is a chat4all server moderator.Yeah, I used Pidgin for all my IRC needs. And AIM, YIM, etc. for that matter. Most of the communities I was a part of either petered out or moved off IRC over the years, so I guess I did as well.
In the end its pretty easy to get on IRC. There's so many clients that provide various extras. But what I used to use back in the day was Pidgin, a multiprotocol client that can handle several types of IM protocols at the same time, not very useful these days as many of these are outdated. Pidgin itself is just very easy to use.
Just need to create a new Chat, choose the protocol (IRC) and the server.
#ostan is on Chat4All, and when joining Chat4All server, from the StatServ window that pops up, typing '/join #ostan' sends you to the Os-tan IRC.
