Surprised there is no mention of the eXoDOS collection here. It has thousands of DOS games that run through a launcher with tuned emulation settings for each title.
Personally, I like playing with real hardware but this is probably the best option right now for a jukebox style experience on a modern PC.
Former DPO here. The "right to be forgotten" doesn't actually mean they have to delete the content of your posts unless it renders you identifiable. Anonymisation is more or less equivalent to deletion under the GDPR, which is why they can get away with replacing usernames with [deleted] when you delete your account.
This game was fantastic. I bought it at launch and was so enraptured that I almost beat the whole thing in one sitting. I still have it on CD somewhere.
It has USB 1.1, which is very slow. You can run software from a hard drive if you have a PS2 fat. It is also possible to run from a network share or a PS2 memory card to SD card adapter. Some methods are too slow to play FMV without skipping.
Yes and no. The GDPR applies to personal data, which is to say data pertaining to a personally identifiable subject. Data can be anonymised in order to satisfy the right for deletion, making it no longer personal data, so they can delete your name but keep the content if they want. This is what Reddit does when you delete your account - the content remains but they replace your name with [deleted]. Things get a little more dicey if you reveal enough information in the content of your posts to still render you identifiable, in which case they would be obliged to remove that information so that you could no longer be identified.
This is great for a handful of devices but I deploy and administrate hundreds of devices at my school. As much as I would love to, there's no way I could sell this without a really robust way of managing device policies & software deployment. I understand RHEL has something like that but that it isn't quite up to the same standard as the Microsoft admin ecosystem just yet.
Really enjoying this one. Definitely among the best time travel stories I've experienced. Beautiful art & animation. Great voice acting. It's Wadjet Eye at their very best.
Just a thought but if you have access to an inverter or isolation transformer, you could test the machine without your house wiring being a complicating factor.
You will absolutely need gnd to be hooked up to get anything out of it. If the baud rate was incorrect, you would probably receive garbage characters rather than nothing at all.
PDFs are perfect for the one thing they were designed for, which is publishing high quality proofs for printing. They aren't supposed to be editable. People just use them where they shouldn't.
Started this last night. The animation is gorgeous and the voice acting is mostly great aside from a few inaccurate accents. Very light on puzzles so far; the focus is very much on storytelling.
Ragebutt's advice is good RE: maintenance. I would take the back off, make sure it's discharged then clean around the anode cap and in general make sure there is not excessive dust/soot that could form a path for electrical discharge. Clean the anode with alcohol, apply a little dialectric grease to the cup and put everything back together. There is a decent chance that will help, just make sure not to wipe off the black paint on the tube - this is called "aquadag" and it is important to the operation of the monitor.
The cable with the twist is a floppy drive cable, not IDE.
