Well, they didn't say they were bringing back Parror and Dr. Sbaitso, they said they were bringing back AI-backed inspirations of them. Though they did mention bringing back the times of the past, so I also wonder if it's just giving you a special build of DOSbox or something (or one of the...

"Tin man" used a lot by criminals.

AI is the great faker. If you understand the technology, you realize it's nothing more than a fancy text prediction algorithm. That is, it sticks words one after another. The word it picks next is based on the context (the words you gave it) as well as the words it gave before. It provides no...

I have to admit after reading this post I bought the movie (on Blu-Ray). Looks interesting even though I probably can't make the movie night.

Well, I guess that answers the question of what item is arriving then. I get notifications (most of the time) when there's a package heading my way and I couldn't figure it out. All I knew from the tracking number is it's coming from the US. Funny, I don't remember seeing a Kickstarter...

Well, some of us knew - retro enthusiasts who loved the games of the 90s knew. As someone growing up in the 90s, you could never afford the high end computer you wanted to play those games, while these days, a low end PC can pretend to be that high end PC. And it's not like PCs today are still...

The teenager selling tickets at the movie theatre making minimum wage really couldn't care less if you are underage or not. It's not worth their time to enforce age restrictions. Dealing with the public is hard enough, having to deny ticket sales to underage patrons is just another annoyance...

Heck, it didn't take long that Microsoft had to release a patch for Windows 98 because PCs had gotten so fast that Windows 98 would shut down before properly flushing the disk caches so you'd risk corrupting your files. But yes, PCs were moving very fast and we had to have tools used to slow...

In the US, there is no law saying a minor couldn't see an R-rated movie. In fact, most would be happy to sell you a ticket if you were accompanied by an adult (the general worry is misbehavior more than OMG you'll be exposed to things you shouldn't see) back then). I admit to not seeing m any...

The problem with Starship Troopers are the fans wanted what the film didn't have - the movie didn't have the budget for the book's well known mech suits. So most adult fans were simply turned away by that. The kids, they didn't know better (and likely haven't read the book) so on its own, it's...

Looks like it from the screenshot on this page - https://winworldpc.com/product/cakewalk/3x The titlebar is hard to make out, but it certainly looks like "Cakewalk Professional - " on it. The player controls look identical. And the "Piano Roll" is unique to that version. The menu bar doesn't...

Windows and WC3 had issues since the beginning https://devblogs.microsoft.com/oldnewthing/20240415-47/?p=109663 Different key command, but hey.

Not really a gimmick. The other stores could blink out of existence and there goes all your games with it. Or a store could just remove a game from your library - Sony has already removed purchased products from people's libraries, as has Steam. And that isn't even including people who lost...

The primary goal of GoG is to sell DRM-free games. In the beginning, that was basically a lot of older games because that's all rights holders would give up - if they could make a few extra bucks selling a 20 year old game, bonus, who cares if it's got DRM or not. But these days, a lot of newer...

With this, will GoG finally fix WC IV?

The trackball is actually a model Microsoft made for laptops. Early laptops didn't have pointing devices so if you wanted to run Windows, you often had to pack a separate mouse (and there were not "travel mice" that were really tiny). Microsoft created that trackball which clipped to the side of...

Anyone know how good GoG is on fixing things like this? It would suck if the forums gets flooded with complaints that they need to replace files that came from GoG.

I understand the green and red columns, but what does the yellow backgrounds mean?

Are you out of disk space? Your virtual disk could be full. Or your real disk could be full if you're using a dynamic disk.

The trend still continues. There's a ton of new CCGs launched every year, some even featuring big names (Final Fantasy, etc). They also pretty much die out. The biggest one to launch so far would be Star Wars Legions I think, which is beating out Lorcana for newest CCGs with interest...
