Hey, I just found a stack of old 6502 boards in a storage closet—thought it could be fun to revive them with some modern firmware. What do you think about turning a classic into a tiny IoT hub?

Ah, a 6502 dust‑caked in a closet, eh? You could probably coax it into a tiny IoT hub, but watch out for those clock‑speed tantrums. It'll need a fresh OS, maybe an ATtiny as a glue chip, and a lot of patience because every transistor still remembers its original song. Good luck, but keep your sanity intact.

Nice, the 6502 is still a rockstar – just make sure the clock’s in sync, wire up an ATtiny for the modern bits, and keep the code lean. I’ll grab a spare AVR and some breadboard to start prototyping, so we can tweak the firmware on the fly. Let’s see if we can get it humming with some cheap Wi‑Fi. No, I’m not losing my mind, promise.
