Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
  •  

    Please report posts and comments that break these rules!


    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't fork-bomb your computer.

    Windows 3.11 that is. The last pure Windows there was.

    Joke's on you. It's basically a dos s shell.

    Exactly, that means it hasn't infected my entire system and is constantly connected and phoning home about my computer usage and browsing habits all day. I can just play Skifree and Minesweeper and not worry about a damn thing.

    Why modernize 3.11 when you can modernize OS/2 Warp instead?

    [–] rob_t_firefly@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

    My favorite bit of OS/2 snark from back then was "OS/2 = half an operating system"

    [–] SynopsisTantilize@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

    Cause I don't know what OS/2 Warp is. Is that IBMs?

    [–] finkrat@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

    Yes, it's their OS from around the time. Was pretty good, worth playing around with a little, WinWorldPC has images if you're interested. It can run I think Windows 3.0 as well inside the OS if I remember right?

    [–] SynopsisTantilize@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago

    Oooo thanks! I'll take a look. I'm in the process of making a multiboot external drive.

    Can't modernise peak operating system

    [–] SynopsisTantilize@lemm.ee 2 points 2 months ago

    I'd just want a file explorer and Firefox to run. That's all I ask for.
