Yes, for reading these disk images, I've typically resorted to using VMs anyway, so I can experiment with old code in a sandbox. Actually, one project I've had in the back of my mind is attempting to boot some of those old Linux installs in a VM. Can you imagine re-opening a carbon copy of your old workspace from over a decade ago, right where you left it? I think the exercise would be thought-provoking.
- marak830 10y agoDamn that would be interesting. I should make a backup of my current one and see how it changes year after year. Good idea!
- evincarofautumn 10y agoSince I’m young, a decade ago I probably hadn’t discovered proper version control. I expect I’d find folders of neatly organised, timestamped ZIP files of my code. Perhaps some things are best left in the past.
