Quoting: razing32If those devices still work after all that time i am more than impresse they still work.
I suspected some people boguht them out of nostalgia/collection status.

Both happens of course. My Sony MSX-1 from '84 was all fine when I tried last time. (It was so modern that it already had SCART while my TV was so outdated that it still had SCART, so I didn't even have a connection problem :-D ). Impressive indeed!

Quoting: MohandevirYeah... Talking about old hardware... Did I mentionned that I have played The Bard's Tale and Wizardry on an Apple IIE, with the green monochrome screen? :grin:

Anybody on a VIC-20? :smile:

Couple questions here :
1.Where do you people FIND that stuff ?!
2.How can you afford that stuff ?
:huh:

Excellent question! In my case I "exploited" my older brother who bought that computer for his programmation courses. He's 13 years older than me so... :smile:

What programming course is he taking that he needs an Apple 2 ? Really curios now.

Did you miss this was decades ago?

Which leads me to another question:
Might it be possible that Linux especially appeals to (us) old farts?

Quoting: DranaxumHave developed myself some games and tried to make them as cross-platformed as possible.

Thanks!

Quoting: DranaxumNot only the linux sales were less than 4% of the total sales , but the users were also the most toxic.
Death threats , insults , and trolling overall.
I would say that over 50% of the trolling were from linux users.

While the sales come as no surprise, I am surprised by the amount of hostility you got. I know we've got our share our toxic people, but taking aside people that are maybe a bit too loud about some stuff, I got the impression we at least don't have more toxic people than other OSs.

Are you still making games; does it work out for you?

Quoting: gabberNow let me get this straight: You shoot, burn and blow up others. But how dare you call them a nasty word, that's too much. That's "hate-speech" and "toxic".

The one is virtual - a bunch of pixels is killed.
The other is real - an actual person is insulted.

Quoting: gabberI would not want this in my pony online, sure. But I _DO_ want it in a game about shooting each other. Bring on the banter, that's part of the game.

Opinions like this made me stop playing online shooters (this and that I couldn't choose a friendly server anymore but had to use a random one).

Quoting: ThreeEightySixIf they censor these games, how am I supposed to learn about my new sexual orientation and who is currently having intercourse with my mother?

You could ask your mother - about both... :-D

Wonder what you want to tell us with this regarding the topic.

Quoting: F.Ultra68020 assembler is a league of beauty and non-complexiness above i386 so you should actually feel lucky ;). I have a few hundred floppys with 68000 assembler code in the basement, don't know if they still are readable though...

I tried to recover data from many 3.5" discs from the 80s and had a success rate well over 95% - quite the opposite to the DVD-RAMs I bought decades later because they were supposed to be especially good for archiving...
