You know that awesome Macintosh emulator Snow by twvd ? Well I have serial ports working and now we can dial up to the information super highway!
Also I have LaunchAPPL from Retro68k working - very nice and modern dev flow to an emulator with all the dev bells and whistles.
PR to Snow soon!

Just a note for IOS @kagi.com users - the extension searches first on the redirect site. Then redirect you. So bing has all my IOS kagi search history. I only noticed this because I was on a slow connection and saw bing load. This really should have a banner every time it happens....

Put a new 2tb NVMe drive in my desktop and went with NixOS (as it has some dev focused features i think are neat, as a developer) - things are working swimmingly after a slight fight with nvidia drivers

Does bsky like strange retro servers?
Meet the ANS 700. Apple Network Server. Runs AIX. 3 SCSI busses (works with @bluescsi.com). LCD info pannel. Mine has a 200mhz upgrade card. Dual hot swappable PSUs.
Short lived. Killed by Jobs. 65scribe did a video on its history.
What should I run on it?
