Ahh well no better time to be a glider fan! Looks like Aerofoil has some activity recently.

Is this a different code base than Aerofoil?
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.)

Have you heard about BlueSCSI Ultra? It's the SCSI device emulator to have for your more modern vintage machines.
Faster performance, works in more machines, audio CD abilities and more.
Check it out! bluescsi.com/ultra

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".

Why not a blue LED for the BlueSCSI-equipped IIci?
#PicoGUS can now emulate Sound Blaster 16 with the newly released firmware v4.0.0! Other changes include CD-ROM speed and reliability improvements, GUS mode improvements, and more. Check the full changelog and download the release at github.com/polpo/picogu...
oh cool, the scumbag CEO of stickermule is using the company's (former) customer list to spam his political junk
the unsubscribe link even goes to a stickermule\.com URL
just a reminder that stickermule sucks
That's home. That's us.
This image of home just came down from the Artemis II crew.

For Apple's 50th anniversary let's explore super rare prototypes, collectables, and never released systems at the new iNSPIRE exhibit at the MIMMS museum!

Veronica shares some BlueSCSI love in this video - installing LinuxPPC on a 9600 (one of my favorite Macs!)

My semi cluttered workbench with a motherboard with the PicoIDE device connected to it with a ribbon cable, and a red PicoGUS board plugged into an ISA slot
Last night I installed Windows XP from a PicoIDE so I could test the PicoGUS’s new Sound Blaster 16 support (which should be releasing imminently) in XP
Thank you to everyone who participated in this year's #MARCHintosh event celebrating all things Macintosh! Consider leaving your #GlobalTalk servers up for a few more days to capture any remaining greetings, and keep the spirit of community and innovation in your heart the whole year round!

Original AOL icons with Apple logos on them!
Random SyQuest disk find of the day:
AOL for Macintosh source code from 1993!?
Whaaatttt?! 😳
Look at those original icons with the Apple logo in them!

i didn’t have a large enough printer to make it all in one go, so instead embraced the sections and printed them in different colours
thus creating the JLPGA Cat Mac 😁
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!

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."
PicoMicroMac is back in stock! Get one soon - they're gonna go fast!

My geeky heart is so full today 💚
I got to visit the new Apple exhibit at MIMMS and spent time with some of my favorite people. What an amazing place, so many things I’ve never seen before, and so many wonderful folks! 😍

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/
FWIW the garden ftp dirs are flat and contain many thousands of files. Not really to be used directly with a vintage ftp client
When I said #PicoGUS wasn’t being left behind, I wasnt joking! This is a regular ol’ PicoGUS being a Sound Blaster 16, detected and working in Windows 98:

Step 1 build a HA setup with a pi4
Step 2 have issues and then everyone yells at you for running HA on a pi4
