Yes.

I like these AI threads with everyone's measurement of how good a model is starting with: "it feels like..." and that says a lot on how incapable we are to judge and compare these …

How were they allowed to "sell" those titles in the first place then? Because it was never implied that access might be lost or restricted,it was very much sold to customers,not re…

Because Sony and all digital publishers with the exception of GOG are lying thieves. This is just another step in getting rid of ownership, and we are too naive and passive to stan…

Sure, just to clarify, I am not arguing that c++ doesn't work, only that c++ produced binaries are either having more dll dependencies, or are more bloated (in size). I also tried …

Even trivial stuff causes the linking to vcruntime, this is an extra dll dependency that I don't tolerate, no msvcrt, no vcruntime, nothing except core Win32 dlls are allowed on th…

Understood, yes, but I described my reasons in my reply to another comment already. Your proposed solution is not equivalent to what I am doing, it cannot work on all the systems I…

Have you checked what dll dependencies you get if you build such an app? And have you actually tried running such an executable on win9x?

For the last couple of years I got into retro computing, realized how much more I enjoyed the 9x era Windows systems compared to anything that came later, and made it a personal go…

Yes, I am building GUI apps. This "standard library" of mine is built from the ground up in a cross platform manner, such that it compiles on Windows wrapping Win32, with Windows 9…

I believe you are miscalculating the effect of skill atrophy, there is benefit and actual experience gained by doing the work yourself. You are an experienced dev and already have …

Agreed, I thought this is a wrapper for STL under Python, what does the py prefix stand for here actually? As for the why c++ at all, as long as one falls into the "don't care" cat…

But they haven't been good performers, and don't deserve joining s&p, and that is the point, do not make exceptions just because Elon Musk or whatever delusional billionaire says s…

Most of the teagames flash games are sadly lost, never found them archived even here, yet they were among the best for me, e.g. Top Dog II was so fun back in the day. Teagames was …

I believe it supports only projects having a working cmake setup, no extra magic

[dead]

what are you talking about?

It is so rich hearing that America can attack anybody, but godforbid an attack on the "homeland" is an unforgivable act that will invoke nukes immediately.

I came here for the article, stayed for the drama.

I thought this is a sort of campaign / kickstarter site to prioritize which dead games are in highest demand, in pursuit of reverse engineering and building servers for them.

So you are an anthropic / openai employee, actually.

I periodically check if Top Dog II (from teagames, now nonexistent) has been added as it was one of my favorite flash games, but it still isn't there. I admire the work and I reall…

Written by an anthropic employee, I mean how seriously can you take that piece? pure hype

I don't think you ever tried using something truly snappy and responsive, this statement couldn't be farther from the truth.
