q.a.d: quintessential art of destruction, dos (1996) https://www.mobygames.com/game/20298/qad-quintessential-art-of-destruction/cover/group-189904/cover-514409/
@ChartreuseK My suggestion for that is to go find shareware CD-ROMs that contain OS/2 software. I think this one largely has 2.1 software on it: https://archive.org/details/So_Much_for_Windows_and_OS2_Power_User_Software_1994
but there's a couple of "IBM Presents OS/2 Software" discs on the Archive as well.
@nackaimlat@furry.engineer While I don't pay a ton of attention to my Local tab, I've been a computerfairi.es user for my entire masto lifetime, and not noticed any major drama. Practically everybody (save for myself) is either some degree of furry or some degree of queer so I can't imagine you'll have any trouble with that.
No idea if registration is open or not though. Haven't had to check in ages.

SCUBA is an acronym for Self Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus. What you may not know is that Tuba is also an acronym for...
Terrible Underwater Breathing Apparatus
@mcc Roko's Genecyst?
They responded near instantly to my contact, asked questions that seemed AI-like or heavily scripted, asked me if i was familiar with a list of very specific hardware... then asked me if I could buy it myself, and they'd send a check to cover it.
I might be desperate for work now but that's no reason for me (or anybody I know) not to be Extra Careful about job prospects that seem too good to be true!
See this thread for more, as this person got hit the same way as me:

Wow, so, I just **ALMOST** got massively scammed by an Indeed listing. Employers were looking for somebody to do Remote Data Entry, the application asked surprisingly few questions, but the red flags started about when they asked me to contact someone via the Signal app for my interview.

Some images from the animated About dialog for the Mac version of Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, running in an experimental version of @scummvm. It's not pixel perfect (I guess ScummVM's Mac font renderer doesn't quite emulate QuickDraw rendering, and the rounded corners are also a bit off), but it should be enough to fool the casual observer.
I think we can all agree that this has been time well spent.

one thing i miss from migrating over to tabletop playground was the trivial pursuit board so i made my own deck and put it online https://mod.io/g/tabletopplayground/m/quiz-whirl
will update this eventually with a trivial pursuit-like board as well but right now you can play quick trivia with the category die

What happened to #holograms? The 3D photos in monochrome laser colours?
They were EVERYWHERE in the 80s/90s and now it seems impossible to find them except on a credit card sticker.
Searching for "hologram" online just shows sculptures or spinning things or shiny paper or projections onto a bit of cloth. None of them are actual 3D photos.

I know, many people prefer those "ready to play" releases, where the retro game is already perfectly set up and configured. I guess it's convenient, but, personally, I really love to collect my games as original floppy disks.
There's simply nothing more precious than installing a beloved game from its original disks and looking at those oldschool setup programs! It sure beats unpacking some lousy, self-made archives containing pre-cracked files!
