Holy shit lol, that’s my sister and her cat! I never thought I’d see them on Lemmy!

This is really cool, thanks for sharing!
You can find plenty of ISO files on archive.org. I’m not sure about the legality of it, so I’ll say I don’t condone doing it, etc. But some of them have been there for several years, so I think MS doesn’t care.
Just be careful about clinking links in the user comments. People have been known to post shady links and moderation seems to be lacking, from what I’ve seen.
Good luck getting your game to run! Oh, and long live archive.org!
I have a virtual machine with WinXP and one with 98, for when I’m feeling nostalgic :)
Sorry to hear you have to use Windows… I’m still stuck on 10 but I’ve been enjoying the hell out of Mint Xfce and I’ll complete the move soon enough!
I haven’t had a crash happen on that screen but it takes its fucking time loading a non-paginated list of thousands of elements. And there’s no search bar IIRC. MS made this process as painful as possible and I’m convinced that that’s exactly the way they want it.
Seconded. I taught two of my cats that they can be comfy up there, and one of them will jump up at the first opportunity when I’m tying my shoes or something else that has me kneeling/sitting.
The claws don’t hurt too much—she hasn’t botched an attempt …yet—but I still yelp because it does scare the shit out of me every time lmao. I don’t even attempt doing anything that could scare her, and instead go straight to my bed and carefully lower myself until she reluctantly disembarks.
BTW cute cat, OP :)
He clearly has the level of self-respect required for such a dignified name. And I doubt he’s ever passed up an opportunity to make a quick buck.
For what it’s worth, you have this stranger’s full support. It’s extremely important to exercise your voice when dealing with bullshit like what YouTube is doing, and it saddens me to see so many people complain about YT / Netflix / whoever else walking all over them, while folding like wet paper and handing over their money.
I understand that people with families can’t just tell their kids why they can’t enjoy the same shows their friends do… But even some of my single friends who pirate some things will still happily bend over for, say, Disney+.
Anyway, just wanted to say thanks for sticking to your guns and actually treating YT like the pile of garbage it’s becoming. I’ll be right there with you if the ads become unavoidable, even if abandoning it is an extremely difficult long-term exercise. I left reddit in the rearview and YT will be no different.
Fucking amen. It sucks but it’s a fact of life. LW is covering their asses like any of us would
They live kinda far away but I’ll definitely do that next time I see him!
