@polychrome They go back in time and up in quality, the last one is a DB9 -> DB25 and it's a solid metal connector with large screws.
@martijnbraam too true~ I do miss that translucent blue aesthetic tho 
@polychrome @martijnbraam
Now answer it
...neo
@martijnbraam
this is f*****g awesome!!!! i want that !
@martijnbraam what adapters are you using?
@xinayder usb-otg -> PL2303 USB-serial -> nullmodem -> db9 to db25
@martijnbraam @xinayder Build that serial to parallel thing on HaD and you could use a printer. :-P
@martijnbraam I still can't believe this photo is actual!
@bshah At first I wanted to connect it to the TTY in the headphone jack but that would be a lot more complicated electrically since the VT510 manual isn't very clear about the logic levels
@martijnbraam With three adapters necessary you know the Apple fans will be love it.
@martijnbraam i have honestly been thinking about getting a VT for a while now, just because it looks cool to attach RX/TX of any computer running linux that i can find to a huge CRT and do some work. if they wouldn't take so much space, though... 😂
@martijnbraam can you tell us more about your experiences with #postmarketOS? I've been intrigued about it for a while.
@martijnbraam Holy shit that's a terminal and a half. Also, nice adapter-work.
@martijnbraam On first sight I thought this would be a VGA connection, but no, of course it's a serial terminal! Congrats :-)
@wxcafe and still people are mocking me because of my USB-C adapter I use w/ my MacBook @martijnbraam
@martijnbraam I absolutely love how the adapter cables go back in time in terms of style, too!
Current day -> late 90's - mid-00's translucent -> 80's - mid 90's beige -> 70's - early 80's monitor cable
