That screenshot is from my iPad. I did not figure out how everything mouse-related works on an iPad. For example, for a while, I somehow got the mouse-button to be down all the time, so drag-and-drop couldn't do the "drop" action and moving the mouse was drawing selection rectangles all the time.

Option-Key acts like Command-Key, so I don't know how to type option-characters, which you have to do to type accented characters in the lessons.

It's better when you run this webpage on an actual Mac or another desktop machine.

And the emulated boot disk doesn't contain SimpleText or any other text editing app, so you can't open the ReadMe files. I don't think the hypercard stack can edited (as in editing the scripts or button/card layout or appearance.)

hi frogzone hear! im still alive

i realise everyone has probably forgotten me and with think, who is this spammer, but after 9 months without fediverse, I figured that i better login to explain myself.

Basically near the start of the year two things happened at the same time to make it impossible to access fedi. Anyway Im enabling #javascript in a browser now to tell you this but i NEVER enable javascript in this browser normally and will probably disable it again, hopefully not for 9 months but this #distrohop is a BIG one, more like a distro-leap! @nimda it would really help if the #BloatFE interface was available over #i2p. @silverpil is there anyway to force a non-js experience, using a specific uri combo? FYI ive been recommending #mitra more in the meatspace lately, so heads up you may be getting more traffic??? or not.... lol

@gabriel i LOVED ur interview on #corbettReport, it is disconcerting to see his non-acknowledgment of your interest in #fediverse. He has known about fedi for a long time and probably should have known better than to pump S.S. (i mean sCRubstack), anyway sorry to hear u were set upon by S.S. drones. I've been meaning to inform u that your libresolutionsnetork.i2p site is broken, it redirects to gabe.i2p, so i may be missing out on insights. i was enjoying your updates on ur health drive but havnt been able to keep upto date lately.

The recent #openSource orgs sign onto the #unitedNations pact is super creepy. The last clause, ie. to do the bidding of the United Nations makes me a bit squeemish, just because we all saw covid, right? Even the other clauses about "diversity and inclusion" a nasty, and seem to require developers identify themselves, meaning no more anonymous contributions? i expect better from the #libreoffice folks that to sign onto something like this (i already knew #gnome were heading down a nasty path by their locked-down communication channels). My feeling is this is a result of the engineered #inflation ( #covid / #nft / #moneylaundering) crises means people are grasping at straws to maintain their income and status, forcing developers to accept ridiculous contracts. i dont know. Maybe im talking out a nether orifice. If i hear that everyone is plotting forks of LibreOffice and GNOME, it wouldnt surprise me.

I'm also interested in what appears to be the lawfare-based extortion of archive.org, not able to research it lately. I bet a billion bitcoins (that will never exist, because bitcoin is capped at 21 million) that #archiveDotOrg no longer accept #bitcoin donations. AMIRIGHT? (i dunno again I might be wrong, i literally have not checked, lol but seriously they are partnering with the US government to be a repo of govt documents??? now???)

The word of the day is '#SUSPECT'

... and remember everyone, #iran is to blame for ALL OF IT. including of cause the genocide that almost everyone on fedi knew was a #genocide almost 2 years ago. Why would it take 2 years for people on corporate media pratforms to work this out.... INSERT THINKING EMOJI

anyway there is so much to talk about and i will not be able to do it now. and will not be checking messages, because my connection is REALLY, REALLY, REALLY bad now. and i'll be here forever and die. so this is just a i'm still alive, just working thru technical coincidental problems.

love you all, and hopefully i can be online proper, in the near future.

So it turns out I got a few pieces of "Found Lost Media" over the weekend. Lots of VHS tapes that were at least semi-professionally made but have ZERO footprint online. A couple of them look boring, but might be interesting archeological pieces (especially the rough cut one) so they will be going into Archive.org once they're captured.

emails leak that NASA and many other agencies in the USA are ordered to erase and scrape all history, documentation and files about women in leader positions, black people DEI and indigenous people research and work etc by the trump administration.

the window to archive and backup books and data is closing and we need to act.

fachists burn books agaisnt their ideology, but with the internet now we can resist this attempt at erasing research and history.

download eveything. create torrents. spin up torrent servers because every digital book and media archive project hosted in the USA is in danger.

share your torrents of research, books and software.

Great piece about the disappearing internet, link rot, digital storage, all of it. A must-read: https://archive.is/vND5N

As for archiving -- a lot is saved on https://archive.org, but even MORE is not, and is disappearing- as the article gets into. That's why I like to use things like https://archive.is to save websites and articles.

Gotta do what we can to preserve.

In researching a #thinkpad I have on the workbench, came across a reference to this purchasing #ThinkPad guide. Sadly the web site is down, but it is on archive.org (this is the last update before the site went down that I can find). It aligns with the recommendations from the local vintage computing group - thanks for sharing the knowledge

Sorry, can't toot – someone hacked #ArchiveDotOrg and stole the entire internet. We can't do anything until they give it back.
