Glider Retro App - App Store Download Glider Retro by Victor Franco on the App Store. See screenshots, ratings and reviews, user tips, and more apps like Glider Retro.

I know, the timing is weird.

Victor Franco ported my published sources for Glider 4.0 to the modern MacOS and, yes, we have another Glider game for the Mac.

It's faithful to the original Glider 4.0 that came out in 1990. (And it's free.)

I re-made Glider some years back for MacOS/iOS. It broke at some point (perhaps an Apple change for Retina displays?) so I pulled it from the App Store.

(Claude looked at the code—found some minor coordinate issues. Thanks!) Glider Classic for MacOS is back on.

I was tipped off to someone on a "well-known" forum stating lies about my associations.
I made an account there; apparently registration is fixed. How long has it been? 3 years?

Anyway, I addressed the kind person's statements. With receipts.

If you're going to step to, you better be "armed".

I 3D printed a vintage Mac that NEVER EXISTED YouTube video by This Does Not Compute

Decades ago, it was possible to build your own Mac using spare parts and generic PC components. Given the tools and options available to vintage computing enthusiasts today, let’s see what happens when old meets new!

Fargo police chief apologizes for mistakes in AI-aided arrest Fargo Police Chief Dave Zibolksi said photos from fake ID cards, not surveillance photos, were linked by AI to Tennessee woman Angela Lipps, who was held in custody for almost six months last year bef...

Lawyers for the woman who was held more than five months before charges were dropped said the press conference confirmed their findings.

“It appears that the Fargo Police Department did not undertake basic investigative efforts before causing a warrant and charges to issue for Angela Lipps."

To my amazement, the original SCSI HDD was still operational on this computer! Thanks to BlueSCSI's Initiator mode, I was able to make a perfect image of it. An external BlueSCSI from @museumjoe.bsky.social now uses this image along with many others. Always great to see another Mac restored! 3/
