   Additionally since this game as well as many others from the era can be configured to output MIDI data you can buy new midi hardware and continue to hear how we've developed this kind of sampling! https://twitter.com/G

   I already have a DAC that can do it, but I was hesitant about trying to use the pi after seeing this forum thread https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=25810

   Interesting, I was actually looking into distros set up for audio recently because I was hoping to build a little jukebox r-pi or similar but noticed you'd have to recompile the kernel on the official pi distro to get full support for

   Yup. Is this a recent change? I still need to use some 32 bit programs for work so I'm on macos 10.14.6 quicktime player 10.5

    Just tested and QuickTime Player stayed open, not sure I've ever seen this happen.

    Also the jump from 68000 and 68010 to 68020-030-040 had a similar transition (if anyone remembers having to worry about wether your software/system was 32 bit clean )

    This is wonderful! As pages get more bloated and new crypto is used for https my old computers lose access to more and more of the web, bookmarking this to browse from mac os 9 later on today.

    The contrast issue is what I notice the most. CRTs had much more "glow" and "bleed" I guess

    I've been using CRTs again for the first time in a few years and none of these really capture the way they look.

    I still keep a machine running Snow Leopard, these days it's mostly relegated to playing old games that never got ported to Intel since it was the last OS that supported Rosetta.

    While some of your points are good, and some of the quibbles with them have been addressed in other comments, I'd like to point out the big advantage to specific mechanical keyboards for me: nostalgia and muscle memory. I grew up on th

    What about a hybrid display for portable devices. A transparent OLED panel sitting over an e-ink display. You could have the battery life and readability of e-ink and just turn on the front panel when you needed full color or fast refresh

    Matias makes some modern USB clones of the original Apple keyboards you mention, all the way down to making a modern clone of the ALPS switches.

    They should have given it a different name. It's fine if Ford is making a lumbering behemoth of an electric SUV but why name it after their two door sports car? It's just confusing and dilutes the branding.

    While that does look nice it lacks what I consider the killer feature of the above device: e-ink display, and with it the benefits of reduced eye strain and enhanced battery life.
