Last night I had the 2011 #macbook pro running #MacOSXsnowleopard side by side next to the 2013 macbook pro running #Monterey. It was crazy seeing how much has changed but also how much stayed the same.

I like the #QOL improvements that #Apple has made to their OS (not including #MacOS26Tahoe) but I do miss the older #skeuomorphic and stylings of the earlier #OSX; it just had more character.

The reason most #Software these days is shit, is because it's made by people who've only ever used software to do tasks. It's at the end of the human centipede of generational re-dubbing.

If you've never driven a bromide #Camera, and done hot wax layout, you can't make a good #DesktopPublishing app. The people who made those original apps were digitising the *bad* parts of the process for improvement, but leaving the good parts, the parts of the job that were enjoyable, as process-#Skeuomorphic

Bring back icons which are rich with details and #skeuomorphic then I will be happy again! #wwdc24

What's the linguistic equivalent of #skeuomorphic, for when a word derives from a technology that is no longer in use, like "Podcast"?

What if TrollApps was around in the iOS 6 days? 🤔

For #genuary28 tried to recreate as many classic #skeuomorphic #GUI icons as I could in one hour of #CreativeCoding in #Processing. So this is also #genuary27

I managed these four: save, record audio, send email, delete. Took a few minutes extra to fix bugs, adjust background colour, and dump frames for the animation.
