  • I believe the main purpose of releasing them is to generate publicity for their company that they might not be able to get otherwise in more mainstream media. Much like how the legal brothels in Nevada put out press releases about how they’re offering free services to first responders who helped on a recent disaster or something like that. It gets people talking about them and spreads awareness about their offerings.







  • Interesting little tidbit from the article, the model is a lesbian, so even less interested in obese older men than the average young heterosexual woman would be. Seems she wasn’t actually too concerned by the article since she’s a professional, but did find the usage amusing because it came from a set where she was modeling being sick (like having a cold).

    I don’t have a machine capable of running Asahi today, but I also don’t feel like I need it now. Reading this and reading marcan’s resignation makes me feel like I should find some way to chip in to Asahi now so that whenever Apple eventually stops supporting my hardware, Asahi will hopefully still be there and ready to keep the hardware going. I figure I probably have about 6 years of Apple support, but I’m also suspecting Apple might support the ARM hardware longer than they ever did Intel or PowerPC, so I might have even more time.
