maple "mavica" syrup [6502] @mavica_again@computerfairi.es

this seems to be a ROM for a later Unitron clone, the "Unitron 1024" which work was started on after the US govt threatened and forced the shutdown of the "Mac 512" project. supposedly the Unitron 1024 wasn't going to look like a macintosh, in an attempt to appease the government, but it also got shut down regardless

dated April 8 1988

i may have found previously undocumented clone mac roms

this rules, actually. this is direct action https://wandering.shop/@johnpettigrew/112172716984340737

i am good enough.

every time surprising myself whenever i re-realize everything that people have branded me as an "evil abuser" for was simply me setting boundaries and pointing out when others were breaking them

fuck yeah NOW we're gaming

anyway just wasted several hours trying to cross-compile something that i could probably have waited for the tiny 1ghz pocketchip compile itself

i really wish cross-compiling was possible. you'd think we should be able to use multiple-ghz machines to compile for smaller ones. oh well

sometimes i really wish i knew at least one other person who knows how to compile things to pick their brain

i wish i could make any programmer friends, lol

this post brought to you by me trying to run fs-uae on a pocketchip

i wish it was easier on linux to grab shit-old emulators that have piss-poor accuracy but can run on your grandma's 486. rolling releases are great for support until all of the software it brings needs a quadcore with fuck-you ram

fs-uae-launcher is massive and doesn't fit on a 800x480 screen, i have to use X11 forwarding to set things on another computer, and i can't even find where the system settings for video etc are being stored, it sure as hell isn't on either of the folders it creates in .config

fs-uae is miserable to use on anything but the latest and greatest huh

oh, oh, laptop speakers, everybody's always selling gutted laptop spare parts

by which i mean i'm more upset that i can't easily find loose parts like this in-country so that shipping is quicker

i need a tiny speaker and i don't know what to rip one out of without having to order parts from china (i have no issue ordering parts from china, i just want one now)

when i last talked about this when my fiancée linked a kitchen appliance shop website from the UK that i couldn't see for the same reason, someone asked me "what? does it happen that often?"

yes. yes it does

it has been 0 days since i've ran into a website i never heard of before having wording that means that i, personally, am arbitrarily blocked from viewing it, because i decided to spawn in the wrong part of the world

but when china does it, it's an outrage

(and if i get it running on this kernel there's no guarantee it'll work on the stock 4.4 kernel)
