For $13.49 at the thrift store, guess I couldn’t resist.

@_Davidsmith I’m really enjoying pointing a WidgetSmith Photos widget at all my photos and getting a wider (and non-repeated) selection of photos displaying.

But I really miss being able to tap a photo and take me to the photo library to see adjacent photos that were taken.

Apple should make this an interactive widget.

I just added my two icon sets from 1996 to Macintosh Garden to download.

@textfiles I’ve been thinking about the only personal emails in my archive that I don’t have anymore (2002 partial-2005) mainly between my wife and I during our first years of dating and then right after we wed. Worse so because I did save 2000-2002. Otherwise my personal dataset is pretty much complete.

Of your personal files, what did you lose (or didn’t keep) that still bugs/haunts you?

My FirstTech Screen Kleen (1 of 2 that I have). Probably 15 years old. Where are my Minnesota peeps?

Finally came across some pics of teenage-me's home office 😊 this was probably fall of '01 or spring of '02, shortly after the collecting began.

The back of a teenager's head in an office chair, in front of a desk with a CRT monitor, PowerBook G3 (in use) two phones, a Lacie CD burner and hard drive, a Umax scanner on top of an LC, and tons of other clutter

Calculating the percentage of time of home-ownership is spent just trying to keep fucking unwanted water out of your house.

@MonaApp @MonaApp are push notifications working reliably? They seemed to work perfectly maybe last week for a day and ever since I haven’t received any. I only use badge notifications. System setting notifications are on and Mona setting is on.

@MonaApp why can’t I edit posts? Thought I was able to previously, but can’t now. Confirmed I can in the official app.

@MonaApp why are these other app icons a choice in Mona? Seems… strange. Just checking. 😁

My custom icons from 1996 built with ResEdit. I’m sure at the time I had hopes to one day work for @Iconfactory

@ActionRetro any ideas on this issue?

I used to frequent the Apple “Town Square (T Square) chat room where every Friday would hold a trivia competition. They would ask various Apple history questions & the first person to answer 5 questions correct first would win.

I finally won & received a congratulations letter from someone at Apple (presumably) that came in an Apple branded envelope & letterhead along with an Apple logo t-shirt. The t-shirt is long gone. I thought I saved the letter, but I cannot find it.

Hi! 👋 This is a little less of an #introduction and more of a little look back.

My username here is the same that I used as my screen name on AOL back in the 90’s when I was a teen.

I would sign up for a new AOL account, use up the “X Hours Free” and cancel without having to pay anything. I did this many times and hence had several usernames like this (presumably 9 times possibly). The 9th iteration was the final one after AOL customer support caught me and I finally had to start paying.
