Luckily for me, I can’t upgrade to iOS 26.

Not bad, but my XR still works great.

The Cube was quite nice, but also a space eater. The Station made much better use of space.

I used to lust after a NeXTcube with a NeXTdimension card. 32-bit color when when the best PCs had 8-bit color. A few years later I was using a nice Intel NeXTstep system for development. And it had color!

I'm afraid to report I could only cast one ballot.

Also, for presidential elections, we aren't terribly democratic (little-d). The Electoral College skews things.

As for lawfully elected representatives representing people, that stopped long ago. They represent the donor/oligarchy/Epstein class.

I'm going to check your website for the kittens.

They were too expensive, plus Steve wasn't allowed to target lower education markets, etc. The hardware was strong for the workstation market (Sun, etc) and the software was 20 years ahead of everyone else. End result is macOS and iOS and saving Apple.

I'm still trying to get strawberries in my current Stardew Valley save.

Many of us had problems with everything you mentioned, and more.

It's a girl, my Lord, in a flatbed Ford, slowing down to take a look at me.

OK, well, happy whining then.

1776 is the divorce; 1789 is the wedding.

They aren't celebrating 250 years as a nation.

A friend of mine moved to Japan years ago. It took him a while to get an automobile license. Motorcycle was easier. Of course, a car ran over him when he was riding his motorcycle.

My SCSI drive died. I need to fix that to get it booting up again.

I don't need to show my face to you. Don't be a stalker.

Then you should know better.

Not the news I'd expect from Android Headlines.

Not opinion, but you do you. Google or Duck Duck Go or Bing or Mechahitler it yourself.

Yes, Apple is nowhere near as invasive and they ask you if you want to share data instead of automatically opting you into sharing. And remember years ago when Apple told the FBI to go pound sand? So yeah, Google and Microsoft are much more invasive than Apple.

I would've loved that, too, but I just have a "lowly" basic NeXTstation (25 MHz 68040, 20 MB RAM). I didn't get NeXTstep in color until I started doing professional development, but that was on Intel. Worked exactly like it did on the 68040, though, except in color and faster.

What frameworks/libraries/languages do you use to make it cross-platform?

All the parts will be from Taiwan, China, etc. Just assembled in the USA.
