Scummvm (daily build) can run tons of Macromedia Director based games and software.

The ones with LLM's lack introspection, researching skills, analisys and who knows more. They are doomed and worse, they aren't even aware of it.

Without a tangible feedback you won't get any digital skills for spatial memory and coordination, peiod. And the kids you mention can barely understand files, filesystems and don't even mention them about O(n) notation. If any, th

Check Mosh. It supports these kind of cuts and it will reconnect seamlessly. It will use far less bandwidth too. I successfully tried it with a 2.7 KBPS connection.

Every multimedia CD for Windows in mid-late 90's was like that. Encarta was the pinnacle for obvious reasons among these Macromedia Director games/tools with courses, 360 views from Paris before even Google existed and OFC Cryo Om

That will run well under minivmac. Yes, for 9front too.

It's early 90's, in 1991 for instance... I know that the air traffic was several times lower than today where the common folk can take one plane or two at least on a yearly basis because of some job interview (or holydays), but it

I am no kid but screen(1) dates back to 1987 and any wise sysadmin would put that advice on every ~/.login or /etc/motd so the user could run 'screen' at login, some keybinding to detach screen(1) and 'screen -

ATC? Or the routing of the messages thru AX25? If it were the whole ATC... that's pure madness, because EMACS' GC and 'real time ATC' concepts are absolutely anthagonic.

That means nothing when everything it's either RHEL bound, Ubuntu LTS or docker containers among standalone services written in Go which are everywhere. Serious GUI software will be written in QT5/6 where the jump wasn't as b

Excel and Genomics was a recipe for a disaster. Again, for home/office users, something like Wordpad with small tables, such as the ones from Ted works for a 99% of the cases. Everything else should never interact with a crap like Exce

The US sure wants to collapse by sending most of the libre software foundations and companies (and infrastructure) to Canada to avoid useless regulations on software.

HTML sucks for proper formatting. CSS it's a clusterfuck and it can't be any rigorous standard for anything.

kkfx it's right. Office users shoudn't need nothing more complex that WordPad and a simple spreadsheet such as Gnucalc. Everything else should be either DTP domain, scientific notebooks instead of crappy spreadsheets with parsing

get zmachine.ps and you could play zork i-iii, Tristam Island and tons of z3 zmachine games (search for calypso.z3 too) without cheating as the PDF format implements an ad-hoc JS interpreter where not all viewers parse it.

FUSE is dog slow and it's a bad hack compared to mount anything anywhere in 9front without root permissions. Also the API is much simpler than POSIX. Hurd with settrans made things much easier than the classical Unix, but it's sti

OpenBSD ran tons of MonoGame indie games thanks to it, it even had a wrapper in ports.

namespaces and no difference between local and remote devices. You just bind directories. FUSE it's a dog slow toy in comparison. You don't even need root permissions to do tons of stuff in 9front with filesystems. You don't

Debian Sarge, Kopete with KDE3: 256M of RAM, AMD Athlon 2000. Windows 11, Discord: 4GB are not enough to run it well . FYI, Kopete allowed inline LaTeX, Youtube videos (low res, ok, 480p maybe, but it worked), emoticos, animations, videoco

Spain too; but legally sharing books and media without profit it's allowed. Still, they should pay me in order to listen all the mediocre music and crappy 'best sellers' they often produce. More than often I'd just buy

OpenBSD and the rest have a limits file where you can set RAM limits per user and sometimes per process, so is not a big issue. On GNU/Linux and the rest not supporting dynamic swap files, you can swap into anything ensembling a file,

50/50, because once you boot a 32 bit os you can run 16 bit binaries :) I'm pretty sure that if I make a dual-kernel 9front (9pc and 9pc64 available at boot) in a 64 bit machine and I compile emu2 for it, DOS COM binaries might be
