📅 This day - on July 3, 1991, Apple and IBM signed a letter of intent to form the AIM alliance, which included Motorola. This alliance aimed to create an industry-wide open-standard computing platform based on the POWER instruction set architecture.
💻 The primary goal was to design a new hardware platform and develop a next-generation operating system that would unify the computing industry. IBM planned to bring the Macintosh OS into the enterprise market, while Apple aimed to be a major customer for the new POWER hardware.
🛠️ IBM and Motorola allocated 300 engineers to co-develop chips at a joint facility in Austin, Texas. Motorola would manufacture and sell these chips to Apple and other customers. Over 400 people from the three companies worked to create a unified corporate culture, promising to "change the landscape of computing in the 90s."
🤝 Despite initial enthusiasm, relations soured, especially after Steve Jobs returned to Apple in 1998. Jobs ended the Power Macintosh clone licensing, leading to a contentious relationship with Motorola. This resulted in Apple being demoted to "just another customer" for PowerPC CPUs. Apple and IBM briefly expelled Motorola from the alliance, forcing it to halt PowerPC production until it was reinstated in 1999.

I love it when my friends comment on how I'm randomly online on my Xbox account but I test consoles as part of my job so I get paid to play rdr2 on company time 💪

that may be why they cut out a lot of the sheikah tech, they can use any reason they'd like, but I think ultimately they just didn't want to deal with both sheikah and zonai at the same time, even if the narrative kinda suffers for it. had to cut corners for whatever reason

what’s your favourite video game :)
oh wow, someone else who who plays video games!
yeah, I have a few! When I moved up here I was only allowed to take a few things, but I managed to bring a hard drive just full with like, old, classical games. You do not wanna know how much it cost me, but most of them [besides a few corrupted ones :( ] work fine when emulated.
But, yeah! Favourite game definitely changes, but probably the Oldest Scrolls series? Even though they made about 16 different versions of the fifth instalment which - when you’re trawling through these ancient file directories - can be irritating and confusing. Still I have hours and hours sunk into it. Infact, I can find the exact amount, if you give me two moments.
