If you want to get some flavor of what editing on the Canon Cat may have felt like, especially the LEAP keys, try Jasper and/or bitters.

Jasper:

bitters:

https://nightfall.city/nex/in/m15o/projects/bitters/ (very similar to the link above, but Nex is a neat protocol...)

https://sr.ht/~m15o/bitters/

Furthermore, Internet Archive hosts a runnable Canon Cat Emulation. I believe this means it is available in MAME as well.

Forgive me if this isn't what you meant, but a Jesuit has trained his own LLM:

https://www.magiscenter.com/magisai

From the "Core Features" tab: "Trusted sourcebase: answers are consistent with Catholic Church Teaching and the most contemporary scholarship in science, philosophy, history, scriptural exegesis, social science, and theology."

The Jesuit priest behind this is Fr. Robert J. Spitzer, S.J., Ph.D.

https://www.magiscenter.com/father-spitzer

I haven't used magisAI, but I've read a small to fair amount of Fr. Spitzer's writings, and also seen and heard some of his videos and podcasts (largely from his show Fr. Spitzer's Universe), and probably qualify as a big fan of his.

P.S. In case you are wondering about the glasses he wears or his appearance in photographs, he suffers near blindness due to retinitis pigmentosa:

The world's first website makes heavy use of <dl>s.

https://info.cern.ch/ (A landing page of sorts to give context and orientation about the actual first website.)

I'm just seeing these two replies today, but it appears to be back up. Timestamp: ca. 2026-05-03 14:19 UTC

There's also "Chisel - Fossil SCM Hosting".

"This service is completely free and run because a service like it should exist."

https://chiselapp.com/

"All public repositories":

https://chiselapp.com/repositories/

I don't know if it has all the GitHub features people may be looking for.

Chisel runs on Flint, "The ISC licensed codebase behind http://chiselapp.com.":

EDIT: Add "...should exist." sentence from the homepage.

AV Linux uses Enlightenment 0.27.1. The creator of that distribution also offers a version based on Moksha 0.4.2, the E17 fork mentioned elsewhere in this thread.

https://www.bandshed.net/

Latest Version Release Announcement:

https://www.bandshed.net/2026/03/01/av-linux-and-mx-moksha-2...

A few more details from and older release announcement:

"Both ISO’s are built on an MX Linux 25/Debian Trixie base with Liquorix kernels."

Perhaps try the clips available at the "Video and 16-mm Galleries" from the Apollo Lunar Surface Journal:

https://apollojournals.org/alsj/alsj-video.html

On the other hand, maybe don't get your hopes up--I've only tried a few, but even the large MPG files don't seem to be "super high quality," but maybe they will meet your expectations.

"The Nikon D5 remains the camera of choice for the Artemis II mission and will be assigned primary photographic duties. It is a proven, highly-tested camera that the Artemis II team knows will excel in the high-radiation environment of space. However, as Artemis II Commander Reid Wiseman explained ahead of yesterday’s launch, he successfully fought to have a single Nikon Z9 added to Artemis II’s manifest."

https://petapixel.com/2026/04/02/a-nikon-z9-made-it-aboard-t...

There are more interesting details in the PetaPixel article, such as: "'That’s the camera that they’ll be using, the crew will be using on Artemis III plus, so we were fighting really hard to get that on the vehicle to test out in a high-radiation environment in deep space,' Wiseman said."

H/t to "SiliconEagle73" who linked to that PetaPixel article in the thread linked below.
