It's really great to know that no matter what size your image is, as long as it's a 16:9 ratio, both Mastodon and Bluesky will display it properly. I just wish Bluesky supported image transparency.

The 1995 Sony Trinitron KV-9PT50's lower resolution and smaller size result in a unique look when paired with a PS2.

VBulletin was expensive, but it was a really great piece of software with a very strong community that made many amazing add-ons for it. I'll definitely miss it.

So, kids, what's the moral of the XZ story?
If you're going to backdoor something, make sure that your changes don't impact its performance. Nobody cares about security - but if your backdoor makes the thing half a second slower, some nerd is going to dig it up.

It's April 1st. That means it's time for me to log off of the Internet for the next 24 hours.
My autism and this day do not mix well.
But now that that's fixed, I just need to get some other Windows operating systems installed and I'll hopefully be good to go. Other good news is that the Windows Archive's big software pack is almost ready for an update!
My main testing rig gave up the ghost. I ordered a replacement motherboard and this past week or so I've been troublehsooting the silly thing, as it kept freezing on me.I finally figured out that it was a setting I selected when installing chipset drivers. No turbo mode for me I guess.
Those of you who follow the Windows Archive project might have noticed the hiatus. This partially because all of my testing equipment has been either inadequate or broke. (Continued in replies: 1/3?)

I found a cool site dedicated to archiving information and software for the Franklin Bookman, one of the first ereader-like devices.

Gatorade is just fancy kool-aide that's socially acceptable for adults to drink.
Don't @ me.
@cuddle Would be great if that worked on older systems. Frogfind is great, but it only prints out text versions of websites.
@dankwraith I feel that. Time to put on the noise cancelling headphones.
