  1. Dual Pentium III. Windows 2000. Yes, that's pretty darn cool. 💻🖥️

    Two CPUs. One blue-and-gray interface. No bloat. No telemetry. Just pure productivity and the occasional Blue Screen of Death (but only when you deserved it).

    The ultimate Y2K flex. A machine built for NT kernels, server tasks, and maybe a LAN party.

    Not just a retro PC. A status symbol from the golden age of beige boxes.

  26. Having icons in menus on macOS is a good idea. The problem is that in Tahoe we're seeing a bad execution of it. It has way too many icons, they're rendered in very thin strokes and are all devoid of colour.

    Windows had this figured out back in Windows 2000. It had icons in *some* menu items, in a clear and legible style and they had colour.

    This meant that in Windows 2000 you could orient yourself in menus based on the presence of icons (they sort of worked like “anchors” for your eyes) and between the icons you had both shape and color to guide your eye.

  31. I set up a Windows 2000 VM in VMware, as one does, and now I'm trying to boot it with QEMU.

    Turns out the CHS geometry set up by VMware is a bit unusual (56 sectors) and different from the QEMU defaults, and now Windows 2000 fails to boot.

    So I tried to copy the geometry settings from VMware, but QEMU allows for only 16 heads - VMware used 255.

    I guess I'm going to edit the partition table with a hex editor to update the CHS values according to QEMU's default geometry
