He runs Mac OS Chess on it.

I don’t fully remember, but original DOOM came on one floppy, I think.

Edit. Looks like it was four floppies. Probably the shareware version fit on one.

Edit2: I’m just misremembering. Shareware Doom was 2.4 MB.

Edit3: there was also a one floppy version

The worse the military, the better the propaganda. Is a rule of thumb at least.

Propaganda is always important. This is to be shared among Americans to further weaken support of Trump’s war in Iran. They did a pretty good job with this.

It’s not necessarily cheaper overall either.

If a million people wash their containers at home that uses water and energy, and time of course. Transporting empty containers to be refilled uses energy as well.

Refilling your small containers at the supermarket takes time as well. Additional staff is needed to manage, observe, and help with the refilling.

The big containers the shop gets also has to be returned and refilled. The washing and transport also costs water, energy, and time.

It’s not clear refilling at the shop can even be cheaper, use less water and energy overall. A lot of small scale manual labor is introduced. Meaning economies of scale and automation isn’t used.

A more sensible solution would be to have standardized reusable containers. The end customer can return the empty container at the shop, it gets sent back to the factory where they are washed and refilled. Then you can skip the extra refill step at the shop completely.

That said reusable packaging isn’t always going to be more environmentally friendly or cheaper. Transport and cleaning isn’t free, neither is the extra labor involved.

There’s a lot of cargo culting going on in this area. For example replacing plastic with paper. Paper uses multiple times the water and energy to produce compared to plastic. To make paper you need to cut down trees. If you want comparable strength, you need heavier paper than plastic. Meaning you also need to transport more weight around. The biggest downside of plastic is it ending up in the environment. If you have a well functioning waste disposal, waste incineration, and recycling system, this is mitigated up to a certain extent.

Thanks for the reminder to take a few deep breaths.

Yes, but it’s possible to make it fun and be happy.

Scales according to five year plan.

It probably runs on Wine/Proton.

I was wondering about the difference between COM and EXE files and learned something. I never bothered to ask this back in the day.

Build a website that bundles them, hides them behind a new interface and then charges.

Sad RTF noises.

Markdown support is actual nice and useful.

I use Helix.

Yes, it’s not made by Microsoft.

Does windows power toys have one?

Install Linux subsystem for Windows and you’re golden.

The first thing I taught my girlfriend was to listen instead of complete my sentences. At the time she was trying to make a living as a coach and failing at it to no surprise.

I exchange ancient vim for fancy neovim and monospaced fonts upgraded to nerd fonts.

It does help weirdly enough. At least I think so.
