Actual BeOS didn't have a lot of other tools I needed. If they'd shipped more tools to make tools with I'd've been more into it.<br><a href="https://appdot.net/tags/beos" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>beos</span></a> <a href="https://appdot.net/tags/haikuos" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>haikuos</span></a></p>

Andy McCall :mastodon:<p>It's my first time doing some actual <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Amiga" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Amiga</span></a> development!</p><p>Boy, have I been spoiled by nice API's and <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/C" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>C</span></a>++! Coding with older API's and C is clunky and hard. I'm sure I'd have been fine with it, but compared to something like the <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/BeOS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BeOS</span></a> API, it's rough and hard work.</p><p>Regardless, I've got a window, a button, menus, dialogs; a fair few features of a desktop application, so I'm getting somewhere...</p>
AGMS<p>Finally had a look inside my second hand PowerComputing PowerTower 225 Pro computer.

Kancept<p>I don't normally dream of the past, nor in such vivid detail. </p><p>Last night, I dreamt of BeOS. I dreamt through the interactions I had with people. Entire conversations I had in BeShare. Thom. Eugina. Ton. Serpentor. Jeremy. Minox. mmu_man. Berndt. The friends I made and traveled to meet. </p><p>The huge trinitron monitor I used. That Acer FP2 I migrated to for an amazing all-in-one experience with BeOS. Syncing my IBM C3 (PalmPilot) to BeOS in that little cradle. The MO44 I purchased to support the company and never used. Controlling my house through my X10 gear with BeOS. The happiness the day I acquired a BeBox and a BeIA tablet. </p><p>The things I built. The code I wrote. The BeShare PPC versions I built on my BeBox and Apple Performa for Jeremy to put on BeBits. The machines I upgraded. The NDAs I signed to get hardware and docs to write drivers for. </p><p>The day Be, Inc. called me and asked politely for me to stop sharing the source code that was shared to my open BeShare instance making me the only official BeOS bug that's an actual person!</p><p>The day I signed up for WalterCon. Haiku. YellowTab. The controversy.</p><p>The sadness of the day I had to list my whole collection on eBay to flee a dying economy and move my family. The awesomeness of knowing I was mentioned <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mstdn.social/@osnews" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>osnews</span></a></span> for my collection being up for grabs. The knowledge that my BeOS collection literally saved my family. </p><p>The years and years of joy I had with it. </p><p>I woke up sad things aren't like that anymore. </p><p>I woke up happy it happened. </p><p>Thanks JLG and crew. </p><p><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/BeOS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BeOS</span></a></p><p>*Sorry I keep editing it, but I was just waking up and wrote this so I wouldn't forget it. I'm updating as things become more clear as I fully wake.</p>
