@hellojohnbuck @theverge @joesteel those weee the days. I admired interacting with everyone on that team.

I need to add a short story to my site about the QuickTime launch and the trip I made to Apple days before to fix our movies before pressing over the weekend.

@Cdespinosa @drahardja @occult was it “m00n”?
Elizabeth took a photo of an intersection we argued over before and it proved her wrong and I’m dying.

@fmarini I agree!

Happy Birthday, #Apple. Your products and your early dare to be different attitude directly impacted my life in so many ways. As a high schooler I hated Apple due to the cost, but I secretly wanted an Apple II. I was fortunate to be gifted a Mac 128 in March 1984 and never looked back.

Decisions have impact, and a lot of those early decisions really impressed upon me the desire to do things right and fun.

Maybe don’t start a war by assassinating people, you dumb fucker

There is a 0.0% chance I would install the white house “app” and a “clean privacy report” is just what the developer reports.
