Seems to be broken on Firefox.

Works for me, v75.0 (64-bit) on MacOS Catalina. You were probably experiencing the hug of death.

Sorry for everyone who couldn't open this, I tuned some apache settings and the site should load much faster now!

This is why I visit HN, the little side projects like this are simply delightful. This is however not rendering anything but the controls on mobile so I will have to take your word for it.

Hunh, that’s strange. Works fine on my iPhone. What are you running?

Works great on my iPhone 6S, even, here.

Ooh, it looks like the black MacBook from 2007! Definitely my favorite Apple laptop I've ever used. Less plasticky feeling than the iBook it replaced, more comfortable to use than the metal unibody machines that replaced it.

I had the plain old white version and stuck a bunch of blackbook replacement parts on it to make it look kind of like an oreo.

So much this. Is the Switch really that insecure that there are ROMs floating around of this already? o.o

Just a heads up, OpenDNS blocks your domain for "Web Spam". You might want to poke around and make sure you don't have unprotected comment forms or open redirects.
