I've been down a rabbit hole the last couple of weeks with Apple's ancient Font Editor 2.0 (1984), the first font editor I ever used on a Mac. This is the pre-PostScript era of bitmap fonts like Chicago, Geneva, and New York. I wound up making a user guide and a video demo, which you can watch here: youtu.be/rOwzfaTU0XA?si=QDwZDF

Seeing the furries moving their IMs to a different IM thing and I'm at once nostalgic for Trillian over dial-up and also quietly astonished that we still basically need Trillian, the basic problem of instant messaging being that all your friends are on different services is still the same problem here in 2024

A friend just pointed out:

"ADHD creates impulse control issues and, consequently, advertising takes advantage of a disability.  Ergo, ad blockers are assistive devices and interfering with their operation for commercial gain constitutes a willful violation of the ADA."

Let’s do this.

can you help me find an client and client that works on a 68020 system

ATC crashes, AmiFTP needs classact (i have MUI installed, so i kinda wanted not to have to install classact as well but that's just me being petty) and rnoxfer needs 8mb ram (impossible with PCMCIA)

it's impossible to use an system without talking to other i find, and often when i try i get a worse welcome than the community telling me to just it up, please me wrong

@lunarloony used to have a running joke at one of my discords about that - every time someone asks why the pride flag is still up, the pride flag stays up another month. :blobamused:​

Update: It turns out that the interference from a nearby tesla coil is capable of registering keypresses on its own. #speczilla #emfcamp #chuntey

Finally, after years of searching, I have obtained a GBA cart with a Mega Drive/Genesis emulator on it (thanks to Ankos!). I have been wanting to research this for some time after seeing it on YouTube, and it turns out it is far more interesting than I anticipated. 🧡(1/14)

@PlayHistory It's quite interesting how *wildly different* these editions are from the original games, too! I've never played CivNet, but Sole Survivor _almost_ resembles a modern Battle Royale game, in which each player controls one unit that can upgrade into progressively bigger units, and SimCity 2000 NE introduces a whole mechanic requiring each player in a game session to buy parcels of land on the map before they can build on it, and the land can change hands later on as I recall.

re: Kingdom Hearts 1 spoilers 

@GFD @Ongion i'm amazed i didn't run into it myself considering i did the same exact thing. (it's rare to see a game where dodge-rolling everywhere is legitimately way faster than running! always felt like a placebo effect in most other games...)
