TIL both Xerox and Lexmark still exist. I haven't heard those names for a couple of decades.

I don't think it much different from the official games, which also don't have full access to the console.

TrueType fonts were already part of Windows 3.1, maybe even 3.0 I don't remember.

It looked worse than Windows 3.1 IMO.

I'm pretty sure it comes with a command line C# compiler. At least it used to up until Windows 10. I haven't used 11.

> tried some gaming but didnt have the notion of threads so my shoot em bullets would stop the world :)) The concept you need to fix that is the game or event loop, not threads.

I doubt you're running C compilers on those devices.

I don't know which Gameboy you played, but the original was blurry as hell as soon as anything moves.

To my eyes it looks pretty bad. Nothing like how the games are supposed to look on a TV or CRT monitor.

So just like a modern washing machine or blender then.

It's for the low end gaming market which Nvidia and AMD have been neglecting for years.

by Narishma 2y ago
It is when the high end is 1000$ or more.

IBM hasn't made a Thinkpad for 2 decades now.

As the article says, you pay for that with a lack of support compared to the Raspberry Pi.

> 386 (not sure how 286 works) did extend segments to a larger address space, by converting them to segment selectors The 286 did that, though they only extended the address space to 24 bits. The 386 extended it again to 32 bits.

3. Your hardware may not have similar performance characteristics for read and write operations.

No Office application came from DOS to Windows. They either came from the Mac (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) or directly started as Windows apps (Access). Word for DOS was a completely different application with no relation to the Mac and Window

> Legend then goes that it's how Office application suit was born :) . Legend indeed. All the main Office applications either started on the Mac and/or were bought from third-party developers.

That's irrelevant to the question.

That might be ok on modern hardware, but if the reason you're using Windows 7 is that your hardware is too old for newer versions of Windows, I don't think Proton is a good option. For example, I think it requires Vulkan which a l

Are those floating things airships? What were they used for?

Visicalc doesn't run on recent versions of Windows without emulation.

Having a modern SoC isn't a priority for Nintendo or the vast majority of their customers.

Crazy in what way? I don't think there's much of a difference in terms of visuals between a PS5 and a PS5 Pro, especially at common TV viewing distances.
416.
by Narishma 2y ago
PS5 Pro is a niche expensive system for enthusiasts. It won't be selling a ton.

Why do they say it's running on a Z80 emulator? Doesn't the GBA have a Z80 CPU (or rather the SM83 variant) to run GB and GBC games?

I had one such laptop. It was always a crapshoot whether Windows updates (the big ones where it rebooted one or more times) would succeed or not before the laptop overheated and shut down. The reason was that the BIOS didn't do any pow

The early Atoms too only supported up to SSSE3.

Why do they use two bits for it? Do they plan to support other instruction lengths in the future?
