I'm afraid my Apple knowledge is limited, but this also happened to mine.

I imagine you can swap the drive out, but probably worth booting from a floppy to get the lay of the land.

I am sickened by the relentless demonisation of refugees.

No refugee underfunded a school.

No refugee closed a hospital.

No refugee took away support from the sick and disabled.

We need solutions not scapegoats. Stop blaming refugees and tax the rich instead!

This is fairly good advice.

stop trying to please people who already don't like you and embrace the joy of being the most annoying person they've ever met

every day we have to wake up, confront the most upsetting shit we've ever seen, and then walk around obeying laws and saying "it's tomato season"

I miss long, drawn out, installation processes. They gave you time to ponder, to feel, to dream.

Happy #TillysGameversary 🎁 to Windows 95, released on this day, 1995.

Windows 95 was the most expensive meta advertising campaign in history.

An ‘operating system’ built only to market the Weezer single, Buddy Holly, Windows 95 was actually a serviceable OS in its own right, proving quite popular.
