Given that I don't write code, I'm happier with the idea of a closed-source browser. The problem I have with using Vivaldi is that it's too much like any other Chrome hack without really bringing back the stuff that made Oper

Having just watched CirclMastr's Let's Play of Covert Action on YouTube, and playing it myself (and I think I came across this article too), I have to say that Covert Action really feels like what it ended up as: an unpolished rus

I will agree that the built in Windows OS help is very sparse. But I find myself (since 3.11) needing it less than I ever needed help with Linux. If I went back to trying Linux, I'd need a suite of 'just-works' solutions; Plu

As a Windows user since the 90ss, when I tried using Linux for a week or two on a spare machine while my primary laptop was in the shop... Trying to find any information on Linux that didn't involve books' worth of text saying &#x

How about a link to alternativeto.net? You may lose a user, but you will direct them somewhere legal.

I genuinely appreciate your concern. I still have my lifeline in gaming - both tabletop (which is social) and computer (which is antisocial). For now, I'll leave the hotline to those who have less than me and are closer to the edge. E

Being intentionally obtuse here, that raises a simple question. Why not dual-boot into FreeDOS and play from there?

Thank you for putting it this way. I think the documentation's been done and released by the Apogee/Id guys, though - but I can understand someone else just wanting to be able to mess around with it. But I will say that I'v

Here's the problem - I don't work in a "field". I work in whatever office will have me, being another faceless drone, more grist for the mill of half-secretarial and half-self-taught patchwork IT people. No matter what

Does he actually have the means with which to move to a new city? That's not an easy task, nor a cheap one. Once you're trapped into a situation without a stream of ongoing income, mobility trends rapidly towards nil.

That requires that you're able to drive, and get a CDL on top of that. There are some people out there who are not disabled enough to actually earn Disability from the government, but whose physical or psychological issues prevent the

Marxism should never be "easily dismissed". It should be respected and fought for. The problem is that we're afraid to go out and actually fight the Permanent Revolution; because we've been cowed by those who currently h

As a counterpoint: When I was 20, I had a great job and was happy with my lot in life, certain that everything was going to be okay. I was going to continue working in the public library, get the Assistant job, spin that into my MLS, and t

What's the kid entitled to? He has a father. He gets a clean diaper when he needs it, and likely extra attention. Compared to some of the kids of single moms I knew where video game protagonists WERE their father figure, the kid has it

That works fine when they're "clients" and you have a business - they naturally accept B2B situations as equals. But when you're the employee, that doesn't work. If you make it clear that you're only in the j

I'm sorry if I seem a little obtuse here, but... why? If you need the files from the actual game, and the actual game comes with the tools to run it (i.e. DOSBox), what is the benefit, or in fact the real purpose, of this project as-i

Um, silly question. Does this affect people using QEMU to run ReactOS, FreeDOS, and their proprietary counterparts to play old games and use old programs that don't work as well in DOSBox?
