Turns out Apple has dropped support for Firewire: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/254322119
Basic functionality still works — on newer Macs with two converter dongles, but it's impossible to use it for professional audio in this state.
@santiago
Truly marks the end of the era 😌
@newt @mischievoustomato
I do of course, but it's not even necessary as I mostly listen to CDs anyway? Does that cover the expected level of retroelitism or do I have to up my game and switch to a vintage Vitrola?

I don't even have a music player in most of my systems, I only have cmus on the one plogged into the amp, listening to music on a computer is overrated 🧐
@mischievoustomato @newt
Ba-a-aw 😭

Hey, I didn't type all that on an old phone just to get "okay", I demand a more elaborate response!
@newt
I never use my phone to entertain myself in the shittener! I use Russian history book for that, stimulates bowel movements much better 😏

The window of WinAMP running under wine inside a Puppy Linux VM running in VirtualBox patched to use kvm as underlying virtualisation technology doesn't get scaled up properly — the version of Arial font from Office'97 looks blurry! What a mess, how do people even use this shit if it can't handle even such common use cases properly! 😤

The keyboards of old MBPs were certainly better than those of the later ones, copied from cheaper plastic MacBooks.
I have such machine collecting dust, but it's in a really bad shape: the case is all scratched and the display panel is broken in half (it wasn't me😱), I remember it also exhibiting random freezed when I attempted to get it running — restoring it at this point would probably cost a fortune.

Just in case: DMs/PMs simply don't exist on this instance as concept — don't use them, use the other instance if you absolutely have to, or send an email to any address at m0xEE.Net or .Com or .Org, but I prefer keep most communication public.
