maple "mavica" syrup [6502] @mavica_again@computerfairi.es

does anyone know where i can find a copy of scr56en.exe (Windows Scripting Host 5.6, for Windows 98)? every archived link redirects to microsoft, which no longer host the file nor can i download it through http://archive.org

this is the market i'm supposed to survive in?? FUCK

i saw a post admonishing "procrastination" with a cutesy comic that perfectly exemplified a mocking of executive dysfunction, it had hundreds of clapping reactions and boy i wanted to YELL

god linkedin corporate culture is dreary, it chills me to my transistors

feeling equal parts bummed out and like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders

if you have suggestions on what we should try running on my windows 98 laptop tomorrow so i can get it set up tonight in case we decide to stream that, let me know!

i'll post a proper picture example later tonight once i'm not supposed to be working lol

it's these boys, these are exactly the ones i got. they're so cheap from china and they work great for capturing old VGA computers. if you're into doing retro tech video stuff on a budget, consider them!

my hdmi capture card got here and it works really well with VGA2HDMI :D

they're the cheapest VGA2HDMI and capture devices btw. for both of them i paid $80 (~15.44 USD) & now i can capture any VGA device such as my old laptops! thinking about doing a windows 98 stream tomorrow 🤔

i keep wanting to make a Norman's Sky joke but that's already a thing https://nothke.itch.io/normans-sky

none man with left sky

season 5 was like, the only one that would keep re-running over and over again for several years on free air TV here before we had cable, so those are the episodes i remember the most when i think "the simpsons"
