I did not want to sound rude, sorry for the lack of tone. I am happy for you that you managed to craft a "fits like a glove" solution for yourself. However, while I would love to use such an environment on my desktops,…
Have to agree with this view. I would love to have a proper retro-looking GUI on my distros that isn't a patchwork over XFCE, but not pure slop.
There are DOS drivers for AmigaOS, IIRC they were even bundled from 2.x on. There are some mashups between the architectures (Vortex cards for Mega STe, Amiga Sidecars...) but they were either expensive or unsuccessful.
>As a company they seem to be stuck in 8-bit mode. Because there never was "one" Atari company, there were several eras behind the name (summed up) : * the "Bushnell" Atari (Atari Inc.) that made the original…
Obviously since it was initially an Investronica (local Sinclair distributor) initiative. Not really in UK or other European countries (besides the Amstrad almost-knockoff).
The title expected me to see the common 48k model, not the rarer 128k one. The paper itself says "a stock 128Kb Spectrum" which is confusing for those who weren't aware of this model.
Small nitpick, but the ZX Spectrum 128k itself is not the base 48k model :)
Act first, think later :)
Square Enix is known for having little to no archive of its past : KH1 is not the first occurence of lost source in their library.
Best news of the past few days. This is one of the protos that's been held hostage in the Stamper's collection.
Steam used to be steamgames.com, too.
Isn't that wholesale which does not always land to customer sales? Honestly I don't know much about all of this.
Yeah that was a quick sumup based on the fact that the parent was not posting in good faith. Thanks for the precision.
No it's not. It was the most sold during March, but that's it. Local sources (https://www.autohome.com.cn/hangye/showroom/) tend to show that it's Xiaomi / Geely that's leading the race in 2026. Additionally, sales…
It's been scalped on announcement, sadly. Sold out everywhere.
These are not calculators, but pocket computers. Different markets (one crashed, the other still exists) with different hardware.
Honest question: Am I the only one bothered by the fact that this author puts her name absolutely everywhere on her posts? Feels very ego-trippy.

I enjoy retrocomputing a lot, being a huge part of my life. I do not want to see advancements made by a technology I truly despise. I'd rather see less impressive, handmade projects (therefore, more impressive) rather…
His entire discography is worth a listen, honestly. Gems absolutely everywhere, and deep knowledge of his (traveling!) studio.
As we say in another language, "you should probably get your ears cleaned". Besides the Blade Runner & Chariots of Fire soundtracks (two masterpieces of albums, which is two more than 90% of the world), his repertoire…

Xash3D is not really open-source. The original codebase comes from leaked/decompiled code, and nowadays still requires the proprietary HLSDK to build.
