I was trying to work out why a program needed more of the bartender from the Simpsons in it.
I don’t know of any other Moes.

Thanks! So far it’s really really good and everything works (the WM is so nice), except I can’t use HDMI from my laptop which might be a show stopper :-/

Ah ok, now I understand … though it’s not something that I’d get excited about I’m glad the idea has you feeling enthusiastic :-)

Apparently it already has the stuff I use, so full steam ahead for me! :-)

So, there’s another Connect out there for something else? Or the poster above wants the maker of Connect for Lemmy to release their source code?

I just found Haiku R1 Beta 4 exists yesterday, and today read that it has an X11 API interpreter, so I’m going to give it a try over the weekend by chucking an old HDD in my laptop and running it natively … if it recognises my old laptop’s WiFi I’ll try it on a longer term basis :-)

Have I missed something? I’m writing this comment using Connect for Lemmy

Try Haiku, it’s the current open source version of BeOs (currently on it’s 4th Beta release) and it runs on x86 hardware.

Or what about just using a bare bones Linux as a wrapper for an emulator? Then you could try running something like Workbench 3.9 or MacOS 9, which makes browsing the web an interesting experience … plus, cute icons :-)

This sounds like great news, if only to avoid the effect of being mixed in with ancient aliens bs etc.

Thank you!

This is probably a project for the winter when I’m literally snowed under instead of figuratively, plus I’m going on a little motorbike adventure in September so it would be nice to get a bit of useable video then to try it with too (using my old GoPro 1 clone)

Thank you, I’ll have to give it a go - some of them have a constant vibration on account of having been mounted on a motorbike, others are just a little unstable

Does anyone know of a FOSS video stabilization program that works without gyro data?

I have some old videos with vibration that would be great with a little smoothing out!

Yeah, the descriptions and lack of curation is really weird … browse games and oh look here’s 27 varieties of reversi and a driving game that crashes on launch.

If it were a curated list with enthusiastic and helpful descriptions it would make it more accessible to use. Get the mature and professional looking programs front and center.

Much as I hate to say it, it could do with a makeover from someone with a sense of marketing. (Excuse me for a second, I felt a little nauseous saying that).

sigh yes I remember 1.0 taking up a lot of my 160mb hard disk.

Things I remember: changing the command line font was mindblowing. I managed to get xeyes to run, but not a window manager, so I just had massive eyes following the cursor around. I compiled a lot of my really shoddy C code but had no idea what I was doing. The number of disks that Emacs needed felt disproportionate at 5 when MS Word 2.0 fitted on 3, and Doom fitted on 3 and a half.

It was all very exciting, and felt like you were “sticking it to the man” by not using ms-dos :-)

These days I just use computers as a tool, and as such I have Linux Mint on my home machine.

Not OP but, personally not having a modem at that time, I convinced a well-off friend that he should try it. Then I copied his disks.
