Bless its heart for being so dang confident about every wrong answer it has.

oh thanks for that tip!

I’d love to see how you use it. My encounters with jest have been painful, and it seemed unnecessarily cruel to run browser tests in node, where you couldn’t just easily put a debugger statement in there and use the inspector to see what was going on.

I’d love to clickjack some repos to merge some PRs.

Really missed an opportunity not naming this site "How do you like them apples?"

Incredible! I have a couple of old Macs lying around and it's a dream of mine to write a native app for them that does something modern, like a way to control spotify of something. Thanks for linking

Oof, sorry for that botched list formatting, all.

Forgot about that one!

This is so great. The 90s/pre OS-X Apple (the "BuT tHeREs No SOFtWaRe!" and "ApPLe is GoING tO DiiEE" Apple) had a sense of playfulness in their UIs that was largely lost when they became the Apple we know today.

The Mac OS classic architecture definitely had some problems with its non-protected memory and cooperative multitasking, but what it _allowed_ were extensions that could really get in there and muck around with things… and I looovvvved the zaniness that provided. To name a few:

- ResEdit! - Extensions that could seriously improve your computer's performance like RamDoubler or SpeedDoubler - That extension that made Oscar the grouch climb out of the trash can and sing a little ditty when you emptied the trash - The talking moose was fun for about 15 minutes, but still, I love the attitude. - After Dark! - Easter eggs like that "secret about box" text clipping thing that pulled up the pirate flag flying over the Apple Campus. - Playful messaging like "Installing System Morsels", or Sim City 2000's "Reticulating Splines" - Even the iconography was more playful—that little bloated mac icon in the Memory control panel next to Virtual Memory comes to mind

I miss the crew of developers, capabilities, and playfulness we lost in transitioning to OSX, but am thrilled that tiny fragments of this playfulness seem to be returning.

Welcome back Clarus! Moof!

I'm afraid to ask, but why are people anti ubiquity? I freaking love my udm-pro and am waiting for their cams to come back in stock so I can ditch my nests.

Lol, did you use this for something practical and useful? I remember it being kind of mind blowing tech wise at the time, but past that I can’t remember getting a ton of use out of it? Remind me of the highlights?

This is awesome! I've been wanting something like this for a long long time and am thrilled I didn't have to build it myself

Save Apple? Is this 1997? The M1 was great for Apple, but I wouldn’t say a 2 trillion dollar company needed “saving”.
