It'd be awesome if this could be coded and decoded in javascript in realtime so you could do extremely low bandwidth podcasts (1,3 megabyte per half an hour) and play them in a browser or send them by e-mail. With HCCB color coding (Mi

You have to put a decoding chip in the cassette device... or but the audio cable in the line-in of a pc and decode it there... but then I think I'd say, why bother. Stick with audio and analog for tapes (except when you are using a C64

Tapes can do 110 minutes and sound just as good to non-audiophiles as cd's. You could put around 50 MB data on it, which translates in around an hour of high fidelity music (Opus codec or HE-AAC). You can't put a CD in your pocket

Ah, that's quite nice! Although I'm not sure what use case I'd like to use it for... Although... I do have an old i486 with SB AWE32 with some sound software that only runs good enough on metal (not on dosbox). Now I can run

Would it be faster then Virtualbox? I'm emulating Ubuntu on Linux with Virtualbox but perhaps switching to VmWare, Parallels or maybe VirtualPC will result in better performance.

As the page says the arrangement is using VirtualPC to emulate a PC and boot DOS, I noticed that VirtualBox has an option to host an RDP/VNC server in the settings. Wouldn't that be easier to configure?

How does this relate to staring at OLED at LED screens? Are they potentially dangerous as well? Could you prevent harm by running a tool like F.lux and lower the brightness?

Thanks for the update! What about just copying those files over from MS-DOS?

Hi Shakna, if you'd boot FreeDOS and Windows 3.1 directly, perhaps it would even be 4 seconds as you skip Linux booting and the DosBox latency.

Jerf, I understand your point. I compare it on functionality, for example compare the load times of for example Windows for Workgroups 3.11 with Word for Windows 6.0 on an old Pentium 1 or 486 with say 8 MB of RAM with Windows10 and the ear

DOS + Win 3.11 was very fast compared to Windows (9x, XP, 7 and 10), OSX or Linux nowadays and there were lots of good games written for the platform (MOO1, CIV1, Duke Nukem 3D). I read about the problems with Windows 3.11 protected mode, d

Hi Derrick, I gave my personal answer and lichess gives this answer: "Chess variants introduce variations of or new mechanics in regular Chess that gives it a unique, compelling, or sophisticated gameplay. Are you ready to think outsid

Yes, of course. I was just explaining what the lichess platform would need (and why) to be perfect in my humble opinion. It would be nice to use the same chess app for everything chess related, with the social aspect working offline like a

by fsiefken 10y ago
Yes, but variants are supported in the application, anti-chess, horde, atomic, three-check etc. Agreed, those are not really chess, as the rules or end conditions are significantly changed. But it's like chess960 chess, the pieces are

ExaGear Desktop claims near native performance on ARM today, so I assume the performance will be similar. It will perhaps have a more significant cost in battery life. https://eltechs.com/product/exagear-desktop/
