This, what a fucking pointless exercise.

Fucking lulz at your comment, btw.

I'm back on my computer now.  To answer your question, Stark, I put spaces in it but I guess it did not read it for some strange reason.  I took the computer and ran AT&T Unix on it instead of the Commodore Operating System so that I could use the Lynx Web Browser which is text based and able to run on the 64k memory.  Took me a while to figure out how to log in because of the confusion with pictures but once I did, it was easy from there


Considering that the Commodore 64 is 30 years old, I think its pretty cool.  I did it just to see if it could actually be done although I used a bridge to get the 300 baud modem to connect to my wifi

Next thing you'll post, "I just took a dump in a coffee can."

Congratulations, you just mastered 1960's era military technology.
Great success.

Composite video won't show up on camera, all you'll get is a giant line coming down the screen.  I'm going to see if I can find a device that will allow me to hook it up to a LCD monitor and I might attempt to use a TRS-80 to log into Getbig which is  35 years old using the same technique.  If I can hook it up to an LCD monitor then I'll be able to videotape it
