Ya know what? I'm gonna toot my own horn today On Here Specifically.

I have already received at least a dozen thankful comments/replies for letting people know they can slow down door closers. A lot of people have been living with irritating bangs in apartment buildings and whatnot.

And thanks to watching a YouTube video, their life is now better. I didn't sell anything to them, I just decided to share some knowledge in my own (hopefully entertaining) way.

@atlasstorm yeah! the funny part about this device is I can beam it literally any file I want (via the Voice Recorder) but have no way to use any files that aren't specifically in WAV format. I could probably fill up its whole storage with a copy of Doom and not be able to run it without Explorer or a Run dialog box.

Alas, 1999 PDA, cable is 100% proprietary (and serial!) so would need someone who knows what they're doing (ie. not me) to kludge one together - ebay sure ain't got any!

After playing through The Crimson Diamond by @JuliaMinamata, I just had to see the game's gorgeous EGA artwork on a real CRT! So I took a couple screencaps from the game, nearest neighbor scaled them down and cropped them to 320x200, converted to PCX and copied them over to my IBM PC/AT on floppy disk. This is a real EGA monitor and you can see the beautiful scanlines. Now I can imagine what it'd be like to play the game on an old PC back in the day. store.steampowered.com/app/109

Printer refused to print until I'd changed the cyan toner - even though I specifically requested a monochrome print.

@confusedbunny A lot of printers lie about printing in monochrome mode and use the color inks (usually yellow but sometimes cyan) to print microscopic dots in the margins as an identifier. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Printer_

Good: Links LS runs on my Toshiba Libretto!
Bad: Links LS requires a screen res of 800x600, and the Libretto only does 640x480. So all the UI (swing meter and all) is pushed off screen where I can't see to click on it.

@mcc Chef Peter Pepper is in a hell of his own making after a traumatizing argument over what ingredients do and do not belong on burgers, as homicidal sunny side up eggs and hot dogs aim to chase him down and end him utterly for his ignorance. the pickles are there too because they felt left out
