>>43192262
I had one of those about 15 years ago. I think I bought it for $400, but I gave it away when I moved, because I didn't want to lug around the huge monitor.

it's a bit like the hole in the ozone layer; we banned chloroflurocarbonwhatevers and that pretty much was all we needed to fix that. risc did change things. so much so that risc principles are in non-risc chips and risc chips have become a hell of a lot more complicated. so it changed everything, which is why you never hear about it anymore: it's already been changed, it's not news.

Also, OPENSTEP was available on x86.

>>43193631
if it is buckling springs, then it is nowhere near as loud as a model m. the keys have a squishy spot at the beginning of the stroke, then goes down without much effort. they are kinda "loose" feeling though, and sometimes they catch and friction makes them more difficult to press. as if, they needed to be cleaned, or lubed. ...people dont lube mechanical switches to they?

presumably, that ancient app resolves the host, then attempts to grab the content with the ip address, and clouflare rejects it because it wants to be able to redirect your requests to different hosts for load balancing.

Got any spare shit laying around to try this? I'm thinking of setting this up on my network.

>>43194809
yeah, i agree with you. its mostly people who attach themselves to some idea, in this case "reject all allusions to a physical object, use 'flat design'", etc. and they go absolutely autistic seeking out all offending content, then blog about it.
i liked the reel to reel look on the podcasts, as well. i've never owned a reel to reel, but watching the smooth animations and getting little contextual clues about the position in the track through the size of each reel was nice. i could go on about it, but i won't

my nextstation is STILL loading the front page of /g/. this is completely miserable.

OP should install teTeX and write a letter about teletext on his NeXT machine.

nice, that actually looks promising. i might do that, actually. i briefly considered some kind of vnc/remote x11 hack to run firefox or something, but i'm not sure it it would really be worth it.

They are actually not as painful to use as old computers.

However they are incredibly painful to maintain. Mine is out a belt and I cannot even take it apart because it is so dang complicated.

>>43194952
thanks for posting that. it makes me want to start pushing buttons and turning the knobs, then watching the reels turn. i love the colors on it. very nice. i hope you get it fixed someday!

>>43194402
I remember using Omniweb on a roommate's NeXt around 2000 in our livingroom, and it was even obsolete then!

Install GNUstep on an old C2D box you have laying around.

>>43194516
Oh my goodness, you actually did. The first post on /g/ made by a rlly old computer. I suggest you should keep it, because it can give you real cash.

>>43194974
>tfw first time I used it I did not secure the tape down correctly and it dumped tape everywhere

Good times. Will be fixed when I can get it apart without getting a migrane first.

>>43194992
not a post yet. its been loading the page for over 30 minutes now, with no end in sight.
its not really the fault of the system though, i've heard it was quiet fast even compared to early 486's.
unfortunately, it has limited memory, and the braindead rendering system is causing it is sit here and swap.
i guess omniweb first reads the html, then uses some os library to translate it to some other intermediate format, then finally, uses another library to render it as RTF. the browser isjust using so giant hack the devs figured out to render html without actually writing code to render html.
this is the only browser that cloudflare will work with though.

frankly at this point, i think it would have been faster to post to 4chan through telnet.

So tidy. I like that the keyboard and mouse can fit under the monitor.

Any chance you could get a cheap ram upgrade on that thing?

>>43195288
i'm looking to see if there is a way to stop all scripts. it looks like omniweb could handle them, or at least, it isn't reporting to 4chan that it won't. because of that, 4chan isn't defaulting to it's dumbed down simple interface and the captcha is never loading. i'll probably just buy a pass and post tomorrow if i cant figure this out.

i really wont to do this without any proxies or hacks, just this once, anyway.

>>43195299
God damnit, OP.

i'm waiting for a quote back from black hole computers. they were linked here earlier in the thread. this machine can go up to 32mb, and i'll buy that.

>>43195317

What about a textmode browser like links/lynx?

This is actually pretty recent software. I cannot find anywhere how to turn off scripts though.

>>43195065
NeXT uses display postscript AFAIK
mac os x uses PDF, except for quickdraw legacy apps (bitmap).

im not sure what your trying to accomplish, but why on earth would you be wasting your time with it?

it's like, doing useful things doesn't apply to you anymore or something

>>43195640
>why are you wasting your time?
...said the asshole on 4chan.

>>43195567
this is a bit of a nitpick, but omniweb is generating RTF (a hack derived from NSTextView) for NeXT to display. i hope to didn't mistake me for thinking RTF was the underlying formatting language to the OS.

>>43195640

I can see how that can become slow.

>>43195683
yep. its awful!

Can you watch some porn on that Anon?

>>43195703
i was getting worried no one in 4chan asked that question

>>43195703
i dont see why not. the black and white images might get old after a while.

>>43195703
You don't have to worry about viruses since its a old machine

im currently moving lynx to the nextstation, but that will probably be the last thing i do with it tonight. its getting a bit late now. thank you everyone for sticking around. i realize it got pretty boring after a while. sometime soon, i'll start a new thread and try lynx or telnet on this thing to post on 4chan. i also found an old copy of mosaic that might work. we'll see!

>not posting the good one

op here, alright, thanks /g/uys for hanging out. i'm signing out now until NeXT thread. this posting on 4chan thing was just a stupid 'what if', but is now a serious endeavor. again, i'd like to keep it 'pure' by using just native software, no proxies, etc.
i'm also going to try/demo email, word processing, and printing...if i can find the printer cable. so far, its been fun getting it running with you guys, and i look forward to doing it again...next week. i'll keep the 7pm usa central time thing going. see you later!

>>43195920
yeah, get that beast out! it would be great to see pics of one and to see what it can still do. sgi always had interesting case designs and the hardware/software has lots of history. do post sometime.

>>43195930
Thank you based Anon.
See you in next thread.

Nekoware won't run on old IRIX versions though. I wish I could find some actual commercial software like Photoshop or Softimage.

Even the demos would be nice.

I kind of want to try putting it on one of my Pentium II boxes, I don't know how useful it would be in terms of the application base, though.

>>43196979

Just getting it to run in a VM is an exercise in frustration

>>43196996

Did they have really stringent requirements for the hardware, or something?

>>43196732
Well, it isn't much, but tgcware (which was linked on the page I linked) has some IRIX 5.3 software : http://jupiterrise.com/tgcware/tgcware.irix.html

No Photoshop or Softimage, unfortunately. You will probably just have to keep searching, good luck, and I hope you find what you are looking for. :)

>>43197124

t-thanks, I already found tgcware for 5.3 though, still trying to get GCC to install without getting fucked ;_;

I wish SGI had a better community than Nekochan.

Oh, you know what I meant. The idea that absolutely any desire for anything is some brainwashed consumerism funeral march. It's paranoia, and shows possible signs that you and those who think like you could be mentally ill. Before the jews come into this argument, I really suggest you seek help, and maybe contribute to TempleOS.
