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

I bought my first Apricot PC about three years ago, when I realised I wanted an 8086-based computer. At the time, I knew nothing about it and simply bought it because it looked rad and the price was low. I had no idea that it was not IBM PC-compatible, and that there were very few programs available for it.

I have been on a quest to get a modern-ish word processor and spreadsheet program for it ever since. Which eventually made me "port" Windows 2 on it. In this post, I share the story of the port.

Someone on Bluesky was daring people to "name 50 good indie games you bought that came out this year" - well, I can't afford new games, so instead, here's 50 good (and slightly less good) games I played this year regardless of when they came out.

PSA:
“if it was important, you would have remembered it.” And “if you cared, you would have remembered.“

Neither of these claims have any basis in reality. Importance, and caring have no correlation to whether a memory is formed.

These sentences only serve to gaslight people about a chemical, process that they cannot control.

Please spread this knowledge.

Please stop gaslighting people with memory issues.

@arielmt i can't wait for mozilla to single-handedly lose the third browser war against nothing

Microsoft won the First Browser War, and the Web was worse for it.

Google won the Second Browser War, and the Web is worse for it.

There will be a third, because monopolies only stagnate, regress, and fester. But #Mozilla's chance to lead the way to a better World Wide Web has today gone from small to none.

I want to show off image scaling and non-scaling in my website template file, and I want to keep the bigots away from my project. Proudly queer wholesome pictures for my example images?

"Hello, We're Firefox, The Only Browser That Hasn't Hit Itself In The Dick With A Hammer. For years now, folks use us because of our un-hammered dick. Now, you may be wondering why today we've brought this hammer and pulled out our dick. Well I'm glad you asked--"

This is an amazing document.
