Lotus Improv was available for Windows (3.x) as well if that’s your main interest. Might be easier to get running, if you can find it.

Buying up anyone who threatens to compete with you will certainly draw the attention of regulators.

Or even a hash collision with a banned image. Actually, if that could be generated this thing could fall apart pretty quickly if such collisions could be widely distributed.

Depends on the system. My A1200 (6mb Ram, HD) is same spec as it was back in the day will run Wordsworth, Protext and DPaint IV just fine but doesn’t really do web browsing. I added a basic PCMCIA WiFi card though and it copes with ftp okay

I suspect it’s your use of ‘GPU’ that’s causing the confusion. I would expect a GPU to have some form of 3D acceleration or compute capability and I don’t think that’s really applicable to the EGA / VGA video chips of the 386 era. I c

Brexit taught us people will vote for a much smaller pie if they think it will make others slices smaller and closer to theirs.

I disagree, I think they’ll be mostly empty places, or converted into poor quality housing. The takeaways will also disappear, why do you need a shopfront when everything is delivered on a moped via an app.

The natural conclusion of this is no retail at all, no malls and high streets reduced to cafes, hair salons and betting shops (where that’s legal). All retail goes through 2 or 3 big online suppliers with cavernous warehouses that deliver d

Yeah, it’s not a constructive approach. I would not want to work with anyone who pulls stunts like this, no matter how “clever” they are.

Yes, the US residential market would definitely benefit from more competition. The model we have here is to separate the infrastructure from the service such that infrastructure providers lay fibre to homes and businesses and then sell whol

I wish more people would run FreeBSD because it would make both Linux and FreeBSD stronger. Single platforms stagnate, we’ve seen it before with IE6 and we’re starting to see it again.

Perhaps it’ll give them a chance to reflect on what they’ve done well and what is a bad implementation of a terrible idea.

That would make the drivers Amazon employees so they'd no longer be able to use the "it's not us, it's the delivery firms" defense.

When I was there Goldmans was very tech focused. They’ve built a lot of interesting stuff internally, including SecDb which has been mentioned elsewhere on this thread. They rarely talk about it externally though, and it’s all built to faci
