Interesting for Alaska to say this to snow …

You guys don't get it. It's 4D chess. Art of the deal. Genius move. First you massively enrich the enemy, lulling them into comfort, and a false sense of security, then you give them complete control over trade avenues... Wait the genius move is coming....

Quick note: All images will be of Macs I’ve collected over the past twenty‑five years. None were new. Every one of them was donated, rescued from the trash, or purchased from friends or eBay. I LOVE the Mac! This thread is not meant to boast but to celebrate these computers! ❤️

I suppose we all wonder why the 2019 Mac Pro’s timing was so foolish. It’s a Intel PCIe monster! Was it badly delayed?

Well … even Apple says this is not for most people. If you think you are actually being targeted by a state-level enemy (ie russia or china or usa) this will help you, but it will also make it difficult to do most of the stuff on your phone.

But it is wild that Apple knows this is useful for people who are being abused in this way! 😳

🪨 Aldus PageMaker on the Apple Macintosh 🛠️

It wasn't the first desktop publishing app, but it was the first of importance. I use it to rebuild the 40-year defunct #OMNI Magazine, resurrect a 40-year defunct software rivalry, and examine how the effects of the publishing revolution trickled through the public sector.

This post comes with a free gift!

Aldus PageMaker on the Apple Macintosh

While resurrecting a 40-year old defunct magazine, I accidentally-on-purpose resurrect a 40-year old software rivalry.
