That's because CAD graphics for games where a very different beast. NV Quadro cards would maintain far more objects being rendered but with slower FPS' as a CAD rendering wouldn't requiere real time FX with constant changes e

Apple literally did that with MacOSX: Unix systems' geekdom from the A/V-media-writers' Mac UI background. You attracted both kinds of white collar jobs from college background. As it came with Xquartz, you could run old lega

The closest would be the PSP with NetBSD and custom firmware with libre code. Same family in the end.

If the point it's to run propietary code, do yourselves a favor, ditch JS, and enable WASM for webapps and make most of the text web HTML5+CSS3 only. At least I won´t need to mangle User Agents to just read simple articles and images f

Just pick any VooDoo supported source port (old enough, from gcc 3.4 days) it might compile as is with very few changes. EDIT: all of them use MiniGL, damn....

I used to use mocp under Unix but nowadays it's just audio/zuke in 9front with plumber settings for playlists.

Sometimes I think Cristianism was born as a parody of Judaism that was taken too far. On these current events, the issue is a lot of people it's making money on losses. There are psychos that in the past would be killed in the spot for

Install Windows 3.11 and Calmira Desktop, it will give you a Win95 like taskbar and maybe a better explorer. It's libre software. With Win 3.11 you can even set networking and read HN at gopher://hngopher.com Also, with an IR

It's already done as Quake it's libre source and if the GLIDE headers for SGI match the ones of the 3DFX ones from the Linux implementation it would be just a matter of path setting and a few ifdefs.

GNU was never sued from AT&T. BSD did, and they rewrote propietary code as BSD one.

That would be Ubuntu and Docker. With Guix you can set everything for under a config.scm file in a reproducible way, you can even export a guix recipe as a Docker container, appimage or even as a standalone package for non-guix systems. Tha

Not very different from Windows: - Modern DX and old Direct Draw games often was a clusterfuck in order to keep them running fast in Windows 8 and up. - XVideo and overlay video for Windows were 100% the same; green glitches on drawing, blu

A minor it's legally a kid even if some guy at 16 has nothing to do with an actual kid aged 10-11. The goverment shouldn't do what the ISPs should have been doing if 14yo get smartphones: locked down DNS' -no porn, no gamblin

Containers are a joke compared to Plan9 namespaces, and docker just solves a GNU/Linux problem with itself and the zillions of incompatible distros. FreeBSD has jails and Docker it's something laugable because with FBSD you just i

I used to use OpenBSD, but license wise I'm more pro-GNU. Hyperbola will rebase their OS from GNU/Linux to Hyperbola BSD. The thing is: - wifi blobs under OpenBSD = easy kernel panics. Atheros ath9k drivers were many times easier

9front user there. I don't care much for GnomeOS (flatpak+systemd+nonlibre Linux). I stopped caring long ago until Guix replaces that nonfree stuff with Hurd and does an actual modern clone instead of a crappy NT 2.0 with full of legac

FreeDOS has no accounts. Neither hasn't Haiku, nor Amiga. And any OS from 8 and 16 microcomputers with FPGA's have no concept of that either and if they can run Frotz they can for sure play Interstatal Zero, (I-0.z5), both in Engl

Given the size of some Electron software, bundling TCL/Tk with IronTCL and TCLLib+TKLib weights 58MB and you can develop your own software with it, and that with the source of everything included. And if you set a native theme for TTK

For WASM, there are interpreters written in Go: https://shithub.us/slashscreen/ricket/HEAD/info.html I'd love to have nethack/slashem, the terminal version, ported to it. No, not HTML+JS, VT220 outp

By 1994-1995 only the spoiled kids got the PS1. Again, I was 8-9 in that era. Most people resorted to a Chinese NES clone in tons of places. You talk about story, I talk about experience. By 1997-1998, yes, tons of people got it because it
