That’s so cute! Makes me wonder if there’s something similar for an 800MHz G4 iMac not doing anything with.

It may run under 9, I haven't tested it, but it's worth a shot

This is wonderful! 👏

Dare I ask if you have any plans to update the weather detail? Even if manually from a text field or file, etc. 🌤️ That's the only thing that really bugged me about my physical Maclock.

Use the "SetClock" Utility from Macintosh Garden, or use year offset to fix incorrect DAY , 1998 seems to work for this.
