@MegaMichelle @FediTips I wonder how difficult it would be to add direct TCP/IP to MOStodon. That means you'd only need a TLS proxy for a C64 when using an RR-Net for example. 🤔

@kelpana @FediTips

It looks like some work has been done to make a very small tcp/ip stack.

You need special-built ethernet hardware, it doesn't do PPP or anything over the modem.

The VICE emulator can emulate an ethernet card, apparently.

@MegaMichelle @FediTips yes, you need an RR-Net, which are not hard to get. Here's one, for example.

An RR-Net MK3 C64 Ethernet cartridge.

@MegaMichelle @FediTips Hmmm, LUnix runs on an unexpanded C64 and has a TCP/IP stack.
