@morrick I was talking about Haiku OS the other day, how I would like to run it on my Raspberry Pi 400. Well, they are getting very close already! There are still beta-grade crashes happening for no *good* reason, so I can’t use this as a full alternative to Linux.

However, I’m still very excited by the news.

Missed connections: Me and Apple

Sadly, unlike so so many of my fellow long-time Apple fans, I have no picture of me with my first Mac. It’s probably just as well. You would not be able to handle the sheer hair of it all. Most of …

Generally good for people to know they can update their iOS and iPadOS 18 to the latest security patch without installing OS version 26:

Does not affect every customer, but really unprofessional to not address this.

@morrick I’ve shared Tiger screenshots in the past, but not sure if you saw this one dated February 27th, 2007. So many great applications for my Macbook. The viking you see in the Dock is the “Tribal Trouble” game which was available for both Windows and Mac (one of the few MacOS X-native games I could find at the time), plus Elastomania next to it. Then there’s also Adium, the Colloquy IRC client … and I think it’s the Delicious movie database app to the right of Tribal Trouble.
