@cajax @lina I don't think there's that much to be recycled and retro-computers need more proper care than, say, retro-consoles. Though if you look at Craigslist, you do see a lot of schools selling off their old, 2009 computers. I have no idea who's buying them. You can easily run most PC games from that era just fine on a modern computer, unlike games made for old Macs.

@cajax @lina They seriously couldn't just emulate?

My Dad used to work as a math teacher for a public school. He somehow kept all of the old Macs they used, but he noticed that some of the kids were surprisingly retro computer enthusiasts so he gave them away. Someone was able to install MacOSX Tiger on one of them and I didn't even know that was possible.

@cajax @lina The public school system I went to was still using Windows 2000 computers up until 2012. Granted, it was just one per classroom and it was always paired with a Windows XP computer, but they were there because they still worked with most websites at the time which is what most people used them for.

I'm wondering what is the motivation behind the archive.org DDoS. Is it some company (or group of companies) not wanting the Internet Archive to redistribute their work or is it someone who doesn't want their digital footprint archived?

Added a trap door to prevent the player from escaping the boss fight. It's currently using the regular door sprite as a placeholder. The final sprite won't have a keyhole.

@BigDawg869789 I don't even know what that is, but that cover art looks AI generated.

@djsumdog Realistically human-looking robots have an uncanny valley look to them and I don't think that is going to change anytime soon.

Recreational nitrous-oxide users are worse than stoners and vapers combined. I can't think of any other recreational drug that can lead you wheelchair bound.

Of course, I'm not going to stop you from doing it, but you're an idiot if you do.
