I'm the nerd that requested this be added to Infinite Mac, as there's a lot of great Japanese software. :) https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43607153

Great work! I'm wondering if you could leverage DiscMaster or my Macintosh Magazine Media collection to hunt for themes? You'd just search for the type or creator code. Not that you're short of themes. I did this sort of sear

This is an astonishing conversion, even in this obviously heavily edited form. The topic is ever present: at exactly the same time in 1983 artists/illustrators like Barbara Nessim https://blog.gingerbeardman.com/2023&#x

Whilst working in corporate I tried to get matt@apple.com which was showing as free, but in fact somebody in retail had claimed it. Good for them!

You can doubt it. If only it was possible to go to these locations in real life and verify it yourself? That's exactly what I did. I went to Dartmoor and the difference is quite noticeable. YMMV
