hey there, it's so i'm going to be humbly asking for any help at all that people can give to help a disabled trans woman get married to her partner, despite the awful costs involved due to visas, gofund.me/580dbcb4 .

@clyde i love that i reinvented accordions without knowing and like two people pointed it out. i'm very good at reinventing the wheel without knowing what a wheel is or that it already exists

the lesson *I'm* choosing to take from xz, as an oss maintainer, is that anyone trying to pressure or guilt me into doing something should immediately be told no, for security reasons

@DosFox Jecel says it himself in his page they're just copies of the Apple PALs.

@DosFox the technical study of the Mac512 to determine its legality wasn't even ordered until 1987. it never went to market, it would've been illegal for it to do so. Unitron posted ads in early 1988 and SEI shut the project down.

@DosFox He says himself that in the 1985 fair their clones aren't even functional. We can rely on his memory, sure.

@DosFox I can tell you the Mac512 project was never legally commercially available. SEI never approved the project. And I'm actually in Brazil, so.

@DosFox re-reading Jecel's retelling i can understand how this might be confusing: what he's referring to as the "Turbo Mac project" is just Mac512. they were still developing it and this would improve that project, the less Apple material they could release it with the better. the "Mac with separate monitor" he mentions was likely an early Unitron 1024.
