Ohh, you have red hair now too! Welcome to the club \o/

Remember to update the firmware on those drives, the early 990PRO firmware was quite unstable, especially with Linux.
After those upgrades they're nice, though.

H.320 😻😻😻
Always nice to see that :)

Digital audio mixing is always a nightmare because of the different free-running clocks.
I'm guessing it'll suck regardless of the solution I pick :D

Daaaaaamn, that's nice!

With BlueSCSI, AWE64 Gold and my CD-ROM drive all outputting SPDIF, I guess I really need some sort of digital mixer to get the most out of that *hmm*

That's pretty fast! May I ask what hardware you're running it on?

08.02.2026 23:58 πŸ‘ 0 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 1 πŸ“Œ 0

if that's too heavy, you could also just send me an IPv4 address via DM, if you are comfortable with that.

06.02.2026 08:55 πŸ‘ 0 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 0 πŸ“Œ 0

eh, that's not ideal.
If you're a customer, could you open a ticket, ideally with an mtr from both sides and maybe the IP addresses involved in that?

yeah, it might actually recover and get back to normal capacity. but the parameters degrade severely for sure. such a battery left me stranded a month ago m)

yes, it will destroy them. especially if left at those voltages.

even if you charge it (which will probably work) you might see much higher internal resistance and/or single damaged cells, which will cause lower voltage (and not starting car in the winter)

First light on real hardware. I will call it what it is when I decide it is.

nah, it's actually communicating, same as many Android phones would do it, just over the D-/D+ lines.

It's just a protocol incompatibility (and that device is doing what it's supposed to)

Not sure if it's such a good idea.
Some of those power supplies will
a) cause re-negotiation when one device is plugged-in/out
b) might deliver different voltages (very dependent on the firmware of the USB-C trigger board)

now _THAT_ is relatable :D

I know I have at least 2 pressed Win98SE CDs.
I also know that I've burned probably 20+ copies of it over the years because I can never find the damned things :D

I also don't believe Foone doesn't own a Windows 98 CD either.

Maybe they shouldn't vibecode their own infrastructure then? 🀣

i have the first one and it's really quite nice! i have high hopes for the second one :)

Last year I actually retried that on a Pentium 2 with Win3.11 and it worked fine, so I guess my 486 just wasn't up to the task :)

I remember trying to somehow write a CD with my own (way underpowered) 486DX2 on Windows 3.11.
It was an absolute shitshow of buffer underruns and weird ASPI4DOS issues! Absolutely not recommended.

Age test: If you get cold sweats reading about "WNASPI32.DLL", you're old πŸ˜†

I remember cursing the crap out of my Ricoh 2x burner and the cracked copy of Nero 4.0, I somehow managed to aquire. Getting it to run on 98SE with an ATA drive was certainly annoying enough.

Windows NT4 and especially 2000 on the other hand oft surprise me in a very positive way when checking them out again. They were way ahead of the curve and I totally see where Microsoft was going with them. They are still solid systems, even when using them today.
