this is huge… a three chair event

[hints-of-sarcasm]

There needs to be a phrase for “I acknowledge your apology and appreciate it but it does not make things better.” instead of just saying “It’s okay.” all the time. 

[armorgan66]

I recognize the council has made an apology, but given that it is a stupid ass apology, I have elected to ignore it.

Having "a lot" of followers on tumblr is funny because probably 80% of them are ghost blogs who haven't been on here in like a decade.

It's like, no no, those aren't my followers, that's a graveyard! I'm the caretaker of a thousands of tombs. I love them, but they've been dead for seven years.

abandonware should be public domain. force companies to actively support and provide products if they don't wanna lose the rights to them

[omikronsoul]

Game companies hate emulation, but none of them seem to understand that a lot of us would just buy ROMs from them directly if we could. I don't want a fifth remake of Final Fantasy IV, I want to pay five bucks for the 3MB file you already made bank with thirty years ago. Nobody who wants to play something for the purpose of retro gaming is going to consider a $40 remake as the alternative option, and we're certainly not going to let the original dissappear. They're crying about opportunity cost for a product they're not even selling.

op i know you're probably talking about like, video games, etc, but this is also critical for research science - my lab has so much abandonware, either because the company's out of business, or the company decided to not maintain it, and it's a fucking nightmare. we have two windows 95 computers that are CRITICAL for performing experiments/data analysis because the software needed is abandonware. one of the main roles for a guy in my lab is to maintain these little dinosaurs because if they go out, we lose access to ~20 years of raw data for research. part of why is that these companies also make their own file types, and make it difficult-to-impossible to convert those file types without their specific software. by habit, i convert all research files to more generic versions (txt, pdf, tif, etc) so that i minimize risk of losing my shit, but some stuff can't be converted.

for example, we have a microscope that is perfectly functional, good microscope, but its software is abandonware because the company refused to maintain it. the company is still in business, still makes essentially the exact same software, but they made all of the old tech incompatible with new software to force people to buy the new microscope tech. it would cost a quarter million dollars to replace this microscope. this perfectly good microscope.

so like, i know a lot of people look at the original post here and go "well op just wants old video games to play" (which is valid! games companies should not be able to push shit to abandonware and then close it off) but also this is critical for like. biomedical research. if y'all had any idea how much basic infrastructure built on science relies on shit that is technically abandonware, you would probably be horrified.

[jollysunflora]

#there is so much abandonware just...out there being used and carefully maintained#because nothing quite replicates the functionality

[lightbulb-warning]

many such foolish cases :)

Anyway this disability pride month I would like to shoutout disabled folks whose creativity has suffered because of their condition. I’m talking people with hand tremors and pain that stop them from drawing, knitting, and playing instruments. People whose thinking has become so disorganized that nothing they write makes sense to other people. People with chronic pain who can no longer dance. People so over medicated in a fruitless attempt to maintain stability that the wells of their imagination have run dry.

I see you and I love you. You are more than your creative output. You are not a shell of what you used to be. You are a whole, complete person, regardless of what your creativity has been, is now, or will be in the future.

I received this email today explaining that the cost of my Microsoft 365 subscription was going up in cost from 9.99/mo to 12.99/mo, and that my plan would switch over on February 14th, 2025.

If you received a similar email, I'm here to tell you that this is deliberately misleading information from Microsoft, and you can absolutely stay on your current plan if they're trying to switch you to a new, more expensive one.

Log in to your Microsoft account and go to your Subscriptions tab. You should have some splurge here about how they're gonna automatically switch your plan on a certain date.

Find the "Cancel Subscription" option.

This will bring you to the subscription cancellation page, and if you scroll down, you'll find the option to simply NOT switch your plan to the more expensive one they're releasing.

Microsoft is trying to be sly about signing people up to their AI bullshit by making it sound very much like you don't have an option in these alert emails.

Even if you haven't received one of these emails, go check up on your Microsoft subscriptions and make sure they haven't just made a decision for you, because it's clear they would rather try to sneak and shoehorn Copilot into our pockets without our informed consent.

Stay safe out there folks, don't let the AI into your life. Treat it like the plague it is.
