  • It’s interesting. I was just about to remark on how they are owned by Verizon, but this is no longer the case as of 2021. They are now apparently 90% owned by some private equity company called Apollo Global Management.

    The article in question is decent because Yahoo displays news articles from dedicated news organizations in the same way as MSN.com. In this case, the article is written by AFP (Agence France-Presse).

    My favorite aspect is the button that says “Add Yahoo on Google.” This would be an absolutely insane phrase in 2006.

    Those 60s classic cars, though iconic, relied on a very different planned lifespan compared to modern cars. It was much shorter than the cars of today.

    A better analogy for Debian would probably be an older Honda Civic model. It’s older and lacks many flashy or hyper-modern features, but it’s reliable, maintainable, and actively supported.


  • Macintosh Garden has various OS install images among a bunch of other software. There are also preconfigured installations of Mac OS 9 for Windows and macOS in Sheepshaver with integration with the host system.

    QEMU is also an option for running Mac OS 9. It can run the final release of Classic Mac OS (9.2.2), unlike Sheepshaver. It has overall better software compatibility. Preinstalled versions for QEMU can be found on The Internet Archive. File transfer in and out of the emulated system is a bit more involved than with ShespShaver, though.

    If you just want to play around with these systems briefly and won’t necessarily be using them on a regular basis, Infinite Mac is a really cool project to emulate them right from your browser.
