What Adobe is doing with the cancellation of Animate should be illegal. Animators are livid atm.
Unfortunately most foss tools aren't as good as Animate to replace it (no, Grease Pencil doesn't quite do the same and Krita/Synfig/Pencil2d/OpenToonz aren't as feature-rich), but Moho is an excellent piece of software. First created for the #BeOS back in 1999, I remember using it back then. In 2007 it even had a #Linux version.

VLC 3.0.23 now released for Haiku, showcasing 8 simultaneous playing matroska demo videos, and dragging one video over another video (both playing at the same time).
One thing that made BeOS stand out in all OS's at that time and I still think some other OS's would choke on today. :)

@SwiftOnSecurity I would never date anyone who doesn’t know what a mime- type is.
They are a much more sensible way of identifying files than an arbitrary 3-digit suffix.

Hab mal #HaikuOS installiert :)

Zwei Notebook mit 32-bit CPU tummeln sich, historisch bedingt, noch in meinem Fundus.
Ein 0815 von #Toshiba und ein #EeePC von #Asus. Die Ausstattung ist entsprechend 'zeitgemäß'.
#Linuxgaming damit und darauf testen erscheint selbst mir seit langem aussichtslos.
Das #Betriebssystem "Haiku" basiert auf #BeOS und fußt noch auf der 32-bit Architektur.

Vielleicht unternehme ich in dem Zusammenhang nochmal einen Ausritt mit den beiden Systemen.
Jemand Erfahrungen gesammelt in dem Kontext?

I replaced FreeDOS with Haiku OS on my Compaq netbook. A far more pleasant install experience. #freedos #haikuos #beos Also stickered it up. 😁

I want to get a GoFundMe going to buy the source and rights of #BeOS from ACCESS Co.
Not because Haiku hasn’t surpassed the original BeOS but because I hate to think of it just locked up in a vault somewhere.
It’s the source code to a 30 year old operating system, Michael. How much could it cost, $10?

P.S., wherever you find yourself, you're awesome. This is all for fun.
I miss this computer. An Acer Veriton FP2. I upgraded a customer to her new PC at the time and she gave me this as e-waste. This was years and years ago. This was one of the best #BeOS machines I had, as prebuilt machines go. I remember it had an AGP slot and I think a PCI slot. A nice cable management cover along the side. It used normal sized drives and a laptop DVD or swappable with a floppy drive and a ZIP iirc.
All of the bits were standard, which was great. Even the built in display had a cable routed to the motherboard port so if you added an AGP GPU, you’d just swap the cable. The keyboard had media keys and just worked- it didn’t need drivers or anything.
The ONLY proprietary things on the machine were the mount on the display to the PC and the latching system used to lock the drives in. They were hot swappable and the windows side had software to lock/unlock it. I was writing software for BeOS to be able to use this feature (it seemed to be just a serial signal) but the motherboard died before I could finish it. Bad capacitors and I didn’t have the means of fixing it at the time. I moved from mATX to a full ATX Tyan board so I didn’t swap this board out.
A real all-in-one that had a standards-first approach.

It is conceptually based on the Macintosh Programmer’s Workshop and BBEdit, both of which are editing programs for the Mac OS. https://archiveapp.org/pe/ #texteditor #beos #haiku
В мене є збочення (guilty pleasure), в якому мушу зізнатися.
Приблизно раз на рік, я скачую останній актуальний білд операційної системи Haiku і запускаю його, щоб почухати ностальгію за давно почившою в бозі BeOS.
Розумію, що робочою в мене вона навряди чи стане, але все ж...
