Outputting a Windows 98 machine to a modern HDMI display still feels weird to me. It feels almost illegal. Or unholy. #retroComputing #retroComputers #win98

I'm installing Windows 98 on a 32gb SSD. I had formatted the SSD to FAT32 in macOS's Disk Utility app. Windows 98 didn't like it. Loaded DOS 7 off the 98 setup CD, ran fdisk, and reformatted the drive in FAT32. Now Windows 98 install appears to be working. #retrocomputers #windows98 #win98

Is AppleScript still worth learning in 2026? Shortcuts.app on the Mac I'm finding to be rather limited. I know Shortcuts can be augmented with AppleScript, but it can also run JavaScript too. Can JavaScript in this context do everything AppleScript can do? #Apple #Shortcuts #ShortcutsApp #AppleScript #mac

I tried the first episode of Extrapolations (basically a climate change themed Black Mirror like series) but was really put off by how cartoonishly evil some of the characters were. I half expected Captain Planet to appear at some points.
It was the sort of characterization I’d expect from awful Christian movies like ‘Left Behind’ and ‘God’s Not Dead’. I couldn’t take it seriously.
Maybe the following episodes are better.

Rediscovered the autographs I got when I was 12 from Patrick Norton and Martin Sargent of TechTV's "The Screen Savers", circa 2002.
I got this when they came to Houston for a small convention. They hosted a fun Q&A panel.
I remember there being a lot of PCs at the convention playing (I think) Unreal Tournament 2003.

Found this PII Dell tower for $40 at the MIT Flea today. Also got a power cable, mouse, and keyboard for it while I was there. 450mhz and 256mb RAM. Hoping I can use this to make a decent late '90s gaming PC. I think the seller said it has some sort of ATI Rage graphics card but I might need to get a better one.
I don't have space for a CRT right now. I'm going to try to hook it to my monitor with a VGA to HDMI adapter.

Went to Alamo Drafthouse Theater to see this little kickstarter funded indie film 'Two Sleepy People'. It made me cry a lot. Haven't had a movie affect me like that in a long time. 🥺
It co-stars and is co-written by Caroline Grossman whom I've been following for years on YouTube. She makes hilarious videos and songs. Going into the movie I didn't even realize she was in it, so that was a nice surprise. #movies #indieMovies #indieFilms #film #indie

Wow. This site about color theory hasn't updated its design since the 90s. It even still has the original ad banners. #retro #90s #webdesign #retroweb

Any text based note applications that has lots of formatting options? I’d like to be able to highlight text in my notes in any color and also change font colors. Apple Notes, Bear, and Obsidian don’t seem to allow this. MS OneNote has these features but I’d rather not have my personal note library in MS’s hands. #mac #ios #apps #apprecommendation

Are there any note taking apps with powerful tag filtering features? I want to be able to add multiple tags paragraph by paragraph and then search multiple notes by tags and see only those paragraphs with those tags in one view.

I gave Windows 3.11 a dark mode. It's practically a modern OS now.

Got Windows 3.11 running in DOSBox-X by following this guide: https://dosbox-x.com/wiki/#Guide:Installing-Windows-3.1x
I was able to get MIDI playback working so I can bop it to CANYON.MID like it's 1993.
Last night I never could get MIDI playback working in UTM/QEMU in Windows 3.11. If MIDI playback in Windows 3x is important to you, maybe try DOSBox or DOSBox-X instead.

Got Windows 3.11 running in #UTM on my M1 Mac. Sound (WAV playback) is working too after installing the SoundBlaster driver, but I can't seem to get it to play MIDI at all.
I first had to install MS-DOS of course. For that I followed this tutorial specifically written for UTM:

If I had to pick one YouTube channel to archive, it would be the PBS CrashCourse channel.
Actually someone should probably back that channel up before the republicans dismantle PBS. I might try to do that myself soon once I get the time. #youtube #archive #dataarchiving

If the writers of Meg 2 knew the general public was going to get a crash course this year in the effects of water pressure thanks to Oceangate, I think they would have made some different writing choices. #Meg2 #movies #OceanGate
