Teaching an Old Mac New Tricks

They say no one reads video descriptions, but clearly you're the exception. Long time no see! To me, there's something inherently comedic about a computer this old interacting with the modern day Internet. It shouldn't be possible, but, improbably, here it is, chugging along – happily browsing reddit, facilitating chats with artificial intelligences, and even playing Shrek (at least, its best attempt at Shrek) on just 4MB of RAM.

Part of why I put so much effort into into making this outlandish piece of software a reality is that I want you to know that even your most outlandish ideas can become real if you keep taking small steps towards your goal. That's what I mean when I say "You can do a lot". This video helps to remind me of that, too.

Thanks so much for tuning in,
– Hunter

The dedication to put together so many tools to make that scope of a project come together is incredible, and the final product is made all the better from each individual piece. Kudos man, that is impressive as hell.

0:47 Definitely not a mistake, you'd have had to remove that epoxy-encased thing anyway.

I'll bet the Wikipedia extension could be adapted to fit anything MediaWiki. Pretty much anything under Fandom, for example.
