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.
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.
I know there's BOINC but can we PLEASE have the SETI@home Classic Screensaver back? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SETI@home#/media/File:Setiathomeversion3point07.JPG

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

Seeing as my birthday passed, it's about time to update my bio and make a new intro.
I'm Caz! I'm a transwoman in her mid 30's. My main hobby is archiving old software. I joined mastodon to help explore my identity and help rebuild my soul so I can understand more of who I am as a person. I hope to get into more artistic hobbies in the future!
Journey to replace Windows 98 Rig 3/?) figured out where legacy USB support is, found out the previous mobo owner disabled hard drive detection for some reason, figured out one of my hd's died, found a good cf card instead, and now windows 98 is installing!
Journey to replace my broken 98 rig (part 2/?): More troubles. My USB keyboard works in bios settings, but stops working when my cdrom boots up an installer. However if I use a live installer like KollibreOS the keyboard works again once it fully boots into the operating system. Unfortunately my only ps/2 keyboard is dead, and I can't find any USB compatibility mode settings in the bios.
