Microsoft open sources MS-DOS 4.0

Quoting: lucinosWe already have FreeDOS so MS-DOS is only for history. It would be more interesting to release Windows 3.1 as open source. This might actually happen. Also very interesting would be the release of windows 95. This unfortunately is very unlikely as I remember they have many legal complications. The last windows version I would care is windows 2000. After 2000 I would just prefer windows to simply vanish from existence.Agreed, they should open source at least the over 20-yo Windows XP. Too little too late, we now have extremely matured DOSBox and Wine that cover nearly all of our needs.

QuoteFlathub is my favourite place to grab various apps for Linux and Steam DeckSame although it is a shame that so many of those apps are only available through third party (community?) packaging.

Well, I think warmly about both brands, Atari and Infogrames. Naturally I will be watching closely what they are up to :)

Quoting: Fremen(..)Yeah none of this is true. Get out of the room, Russian troll. Either you are spewing Russian propaganda or repeating it.

The Warsaw Uprising of 44 is one of the most tragic bits in our recent(ish) history, still remembered and deeply honored in Poland. It is not part of the history lessons in most countries so it is often forgotten as many failed insurrections are.
But to us Poles it is important to honor the sacrifice of the civilians that were part of the uprising as well as understand it was the last ditch attempt to get at least partly liberated on our own, without help from USSR or the Western forces.
It is also one of the reasons why Polish citizens understand the dramatic situation in Ukraine so well, especially when it comes to civilian casualties.
Despite a few games already covering The Warsaw Uprising it is safe to say that it failed to get a quality video game coverage so far. Perhaps this title will be different.
This classic Polish movie is a recommended watch on The Warsaw Uprising: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VTbpH6356xI
Not to be confused with Warsaw Ghetto Uprising which happened in 43. On a smaller scale but no less tragic of course.

Quoting: pbGoing by the title, it seems to be about the Warsaw Uprising.Yeah and uhhhh safe to say you won't take back occupied Poland, nor Warsaw.

Quoting: PhlebiacI hate how there are separate listings on Steam for Fallout 3 and Fallout 3 Game of the Year Edition. After not looking for a while, I'm like: why does it say I don't own Fallout 3? Oh, I have the GOTY one... they collapsed a lot of the older Doom listings, surely they can do it for this one as well?Yeah it is confusing but it seems it got the same treatment as Skyrim - you are supposed to get one most definitive edition with all DLCs already packaged.

Quoting: PenglingI genuinely love those re-releases, and wish they had done more of them! (Mappy, please! ) They may be barebones, but they're to-the-point and work as they should, and they're really cheap in sales.My thoughts exactly, that is one way to keep the over 40-yo game alive. Nobody is forced to buy them and the fans can enjoy improved visuals ☺️.
