I should note: I ran the OS 9 installer, then was doing a few other things around the apartment and when I got back, it had crashed. So I reopened it, reran it, and it seems all th…

Runs nicely on my iBook G3! Is the OS 9 build supposed to include Blue Shift and Opposing Force, or is that only a reference to the Tiger and Leopard ports? Just tried out the Tige…

The removal of window chrome was a gigantic mistake and we're all paying for it every day. Having to tolerate the extra mental overhead caused by the removal of such affordances in…

I have so many questions... I wonder how the legalities of this work. If people write in "Count Binface" or if that's the name on the ballot, then if he wins, does that mean Jonath…

Rewriting the region drawing code in my LisaGUI project so it does per-word bitwise operations instead of per-pixel calculations. I'm using Claude to help plan and debug it, but I'…

Truly the most horrifying post on HN I've seen in quite a while

There's now a version of GEM you can run on a Lisa. But 68KMLA is down so I have no easy way to link to the relevant thread. :(

What is the Mona Lisa of Hacker News?

Florida did something good for once?

If the Supreme Court justices uphold this, I'm sending the ones who vote yes emails, each with an EULA dictating that by opening and reading the email they agree to send me 100% of…

So now dogs are going to take my job? What's next? Snails? Rabbits? Wild salmon?

If meta wants to cut out the middleman and let businesses pay directly for ai generated ads, I doubt they have any incentive to fix this.

Hey, working at a shoe factory is serious business. You have to be a real bootlicker to get ahead in a place like that.

Mine's https://yaros.ae I need to get back to working on my blog and projects. I took a short hiatus.

What drives me crazy is Apple redesigned their weather app not so long after acquiring dark sky. I was anticipating a polished, updated version of Dark Sky's UI. Instead we have th…
