Big Bad Biologist. Doggo daddo. Alliteration Aficionado. (I'm a retro computing enthusiast that livestreams a lot of my restoration work, normally at noon eastern on Saturdays) Trumpers please kindly fuck off. https://www.youtube.com/@BigBadBenchhttps://bsky.app/profile/bigbadbiologist.bsky.socialhttps://bsky.app/profile/bigbadbiologist.bsky.social/post/3mltxjm7oxk2bNo Saturday stream this week, so I'm going to try to sneak in a Friday afternoon 3:00 EDT stream. We'll check out a couple supposedly sad Newer Technology MAXpowr G3 upgrade boards for the Power Mac 6100. https://youtube.com/live/SgHDaMtyteQ?feature=share14 May 2026 23:22 +0000at://did:plc:vh3kn3vnh4jf5c4s2w73mtno/app.bsky.feed.post/3mltxjm7oxk2bhttps://bsky.app/profile/bigbadbiologist.bsky.social/post/3mltxjm7oxk2bNo Saturday stream this week, so I'm going to try to sneak in a Friday afternoon 3:00 EDT stream.

Just modded my microscope to make the situation more permanent and elegant (but still with a zip tie because)09 May 2026 20:41 +0000at://did:plc:vh3kn3vnh4jf5c4s2w73mtno/app.bsky.feed.post/3mlh4774ktk24https://bsky.app/profile/bigbadbiologist.bsky.social/post/3mlemw2dfhc27On Saturday's noon stream, we'll do some work on this lot of #vintagemac computers that I paid $200 for: a decent LC575, a juicy IIci, and a Quadra 610 that I haven't looked at yet.

I had to pull it due to me being a moron (sorry for the big blur part way through). But overall it was a fun one! #vintagemac #vintagemacintosh https://youtube.com/live/D5Vab18fW00?feature=share26 Apr 2026 14:27 +0000at://did:plc:vh3kn3vnh4jf5c4s2w73mtno/app.bsky.feed.post/3mkfr7nhxac2dhttps://bsky.app/profile/bigbadbiologist.bsky.social/post/3mkbnikxros27On Saturday's noon EDT stream, we're going to start work on @iiidiy.bsky.social's deceptively clean SE/30 logic board. I also bought a couple microscope cameras to try to hopefully improve my microscope streaming quality. Let's do a mini camera shootout! https://youtube.com/live/D5Vab18fW00?feature=share24 Apr 2026 23:09 +0000at://did:plc:vh3kn3vnh4jf5c4s2w73mtno/app.bsky.feed.post/3mkbnikxros27https://bsky.app/profile/bigbadbiologist.bsky.social/post/3mkbnikxros27On Saturday's noon EDT stream, we're going to start work on @iiidiy.bsky.social's deceptively clean SE/30 logic board.
