TFW no weirdgirl gf to threaten me w/ a firearm. :deeper-sadness:
If anyone actually likes this, NCommander on Youtube tortures himself by trying to install ancient versions of Linux on vintage hardware. Upgrading from OS/2 1.0 to the newest version, Installing Slackware Linux 1.1 (1993) from 55 Floppies, Exploring Ancient Novell NetWare Versions, and installing Internet Explorer for Unix (yes it existed, I had it back in the day).
wait that thinkpad is a "vintage" computer?
:flattened-bernie:
I miss those things. Built like a tank. And I still maintain the eraser nub is superior to the touchpad.
We're gonna cross-compile this kernel from ARM, because we can.
Installing linux on an Apple IIc and chill.
Also what coulnts as vintage these days? I always used the rule "it's only vintage if the floppies actually are"
Computers become useless pretty quickly so I think anything that would've came with XP is vintage now. Laptops don't even have CD drives anymore by default, so soon that'll be the mark of vintage.
Probably windows 7 could be, but that might be a stretch.
But idk what's considered vintage vs old vs retro. I don't think a PS3 is a retro console even though that was contemporary with WinXP/Vista, but a PS2 might be vintage, and a PS1 definitely is.
Can we do a shootout between windows 11 and red star to see which has more cumbersome spyware?
Mmm time to hit my computer nerds with some jucheprop then, because I figured that Red Star almost certainly had less invasive shit than what Microsoft and their billions of dollars put together. That's a cool thing to look at though, very neat.
somehow can only think of the person who got Doom to run on a digital pregnancy test
Does installing Bash on an Amiga so I can use GCC count?
