I like this idea regardless.

"There is value in tradition until it becomes a chain wrapped around the neck of a child." -- N. K. Jemisin, from her SFWA Grandmaster speech.

Yup. Building a ”control panel” / macro board app for my physical iMac G4 running MacOS 9.2.2 and 10.5.8. It will control my main PC, very useful for super repetitive build and gdb commands. It’ll replace my Stream Deck.

LA will be doing daily reports between 4 pm and 5 pm until June 12th. Tomorrow could be the day 🙏🤞🏼

Being able to consistently play Progenitus is all kinds of fun for me. A known card, but rarely used/seen. It's fun to play it! I'm also ~55% win rate on the deck now after some learnings. Just miiiiight try to hit mythic this month.

Sarah Michelle Gellar honors her "Buffy" co-star Anthony Head following his death:

A story I love about Anthony Stewart Head. Thank you to this person for sharing it on Tumblr. What a mensch.

I’m glad the vast majority of the Star Trek cast I grew up with has their head on straight. Makes it so much easier to enjoy the Trek universe as an adult in these times.

Say what you will about Apple… but their computers have been consistently the best long term tech investments my entire 40+ year life. I don’t think I’ve had one pro or consumer Mac not outlast all their PC counterparts. MCI and some Razor models come close… but it’s still Apple by a mile.

Hey videogame friends… My soon-to-be 2nd grader has had a wonderful year, made tons of progress and is reading now! Yay! He’s great at math, too. Yay! We’re playing Pokemon cards (modified rules) and video games together. He loves Minecraft. Minecraft Dungeons looks like it might be fun? Thoughts?

I'm sorry to report Hunter Biden is posting bangers

Tina Smith is an *actual* public servant. It's too bad she's retiring, but honestly who can blame her. Good on her for doing things to stand up to modern fascism.

Arch Linux on a 2018 Intel MBP... let's go! My guess is that I'll have it working later tonight. I almost *always* run into something weird with linux on mac hardware...

Their cult leader is pathetic. Everyone who voted for him is a fucking loser.

So called ‘free thinkers’ when the monthly siren tests happen in Minneapolis

It is 1 p.m. on the first Wednesday of June in Minnesota. Awooooooo. Fuck ICE. Remember to eat, hydrate, take your meds, take breaks, & take care of yourselves folks. Wear sunscreen.

/awoooooo

“Are you going to say no to that?” ~ my 7-year old son after asking if he can get a tattoo today after school

Scott Pelley has provided @status.news a statement blasting current CBS News management and even accusing them of having tried (and failed) to "inject falsehoods and bias" into his stories. www.status.news/p/scott-pell...

If I’m building out a wide char terminal for my OS, I might as well make a brief gui abstraction layer and cross compile it to MacOS 9… This seems very very doable.

As a classics professor, Beard has spent her career pondering life in the ancient world. The central question of her latest book is: What on earth was it like to be there? n.pr/4e436hH

In twenty to thirty years his poor posture and angled keyboard/monitor setup are really going to mess up his spine, trust me on this one.

happy pride month everybody

People compare genAI to addictive drugs but IMO this hits WAY better.

To anyone who says Magic The Gathering is a serious card game... I present to you this. He conceded, I won. (not a bad thing it's not serious fwiw)

Continued to be disappointed in Amy... what does behaving like this gain? Be mad about it, fine I don't care, but this is not the way to go about achieving anything other than creating dividing lines and failing to accomplish one's goals.

why fiddle with elaborate, confusingly deep software interfaces when you could be working with a straightforward, tactile analog system like this one

iOS 26 demake (20XX)

Pride was born as a riot, and has always been an act of defiance. During my life, I survived an internment camp. I came out at 68. I've watched rights get won and now watch them being rolled back. Yet I'm still here, still proud, and still holding Brad's hand.

This Reddit thread is wild. Airliner issued a general emergency and turned around. Really curious how this turns out. Even showing up in databases now… www.squawk7700.com/incident/UAL... It sounds like some idiot was being dumb with their Bluetooth. www.reddit.com/r/unitedairl...

Fucking excuse me?

Have some flying toasters. It never got better than this. #MacOS9

Joe Gebbia should be in prison at least until this has all been fully investigated and all responsible have been prosecuted. thedreydossier.substack.com/p/i-found-a-...

The only long lasting serious issue from my weight loss surgery has been my nauseous is now triggered even easier than it was. I’m on a few different daily meds for it a year and a half out, but that’s fine. Zofran makes everything better. New insurance REALLY d/n like it is $600/mo. Oh well 🫠

I hope she gets the entire $1.8B slush fund.

More was said by the White House about Harambe than the political assassination of Melissa Hortman and her husband last year in Minnesota. We're beyond screwed.

I love that this works. Mac OS 9.2 on a 23-year old Mac PPC connected via ssh to a modern Linux desktop, editing code I’m actively working on every day. And it’s responsive. This feels like it shouldn’t work. But does.

So Minneapolis peeps... did Frey fucking know about the misconduct charges and nominate him anyways?

Picked this up today. Let’s get Mac OS 9.2 on it!

Ok this is a truly great tweet

Cleaned up and published my self-made operating system. A Very Simple OS. C mainly, and enough posix compatibility across all layers to allow some early porting of things like Lua, C++ runtime, and ttf fonts. Complete with a working FUSE-compliant custom file system. github.com/adamholisky/...

JD Vance has never saved big money at Menards. It's all in his couch.

This is what a (partial) solar eclipse looks like from space. Look closely and you can see the mountains along the Moon's edge.

What a fucking legend.

His social media posts are a national security threat. Someone just take his phone away already.

A mostly forgotten 1984 made-for-TV (HBO) nuclear war drama, a Strait of Hormuz scenario in the form of news broadcasts. Low budget but fairly well done. Ends ominiously but ambiguously www.youtube.com/watch?v=GQzg...

Since falling behind 2-1 to the Hawks, the Knicks have won 10 straight games by 225 points combined, the highest point differential in any 10-game span in NBA history, *regular season or postseason*
