 Early macs had the best floppy drives. Motorized on both eject and "inject." Later Mac floppies (after 1992 or so) only had motorized eject. You could tell because there was a cut-out to allow you to force the disk deeper into the mechanism for it to catch the disk. I don't think the insertion was actually motorized, though, I think it just had some way of grabbing the disks easier. Not sure how exactly that worked.  @colinstu that's how I expect computers to eject floppies, optical media, SD cards, USB drives, PCI-E cards...
and at higher, deadlier velocity! Блёба с планеты Блоббон. Вышло не совсем канонично, знаю. https://peertube.th3rdsergeevich.xyz/w/v23taAuhQvPJXXexDjyoJw  "Enigmatico is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported." Оказывается, есть ещё один "последователь" Spore. Называется он Elysian Eclipse. Пока ещё игра на ранней стадии разработки, но по стилю и процессу она намного ближе к оригиналу, чем подчёркнуто детализированный Thrive. https://www.elysian-eclipse.com/ Его разработчик, кстати, есть в Федиверсе. Подпишитесь, лишним не будет. Впрочем, и разрабы Thrive не сидят на месте. Даже если с космосом не срастётся, этап микроба у них все равно выглядит более чем достойно. https://revolutionarygamesstudio.com/devblog-43-meshes-and-miches/ Elysian Eclipse is a Sandbox Evolution Simulator, letting you evolve from an amoeba into a space traveling sentient being. Create your own creatures, buildings and vehicles to conquer procedural planets.

The US Copyright Office has ruled that libraries can not provide remote access to preserved video games, even if each request is individually vetted. https://gamehistory.org/dmca-2024-statement/ Thank you to Phil Salvador, Kendra Albert, Laine Nooney, Dragan Espenschied, Cass Fino-Radin, Jonathan Band and everyone else who helped with the push to get games treated the same as literature, music and film. You did an amazing job. God it's especially woeful having watched the hearing; the industry lobbyists gave the most flimsy counterarguments, and the one that seems to have stuck is that people might use the games for "recreational purposes". Something which we all know is impossible when watching a movie or reading a book. I will continue to reverse engineer and preserve games without the approval of the copyright holder.  @moralrecordings next move in Contemporary Capitalist Horrors: music, literature and film are being thinly disguised as "games" to effectively kill libraries personally, i think you can determine how powerful a computer is with these simple questions: - can it run minesweeper? this nicely splits systems into tiers based on the most complex game it can handle out of this list

   @rayslava я во что то подобное играл на сайте exist. у меня была очень старая японская машина. и был такой поставщик - japan cars. когда заказываешь от него запчасть то тебе может за три копейки прийти чудовищный кусок пластика обработанный напильником в китайском подвале, который ты просто выбрасываешь или в другом крайнем случае - заводской японский оригинал который посчитали более нецелесообразным хранить на складе и слили за копейки ;-)

I have some cursed pictures in my Pictures folder that I shared on fedi before, but that instance is long gone. So I will share them again. Let's start with this one, 45deg screen rotation support.

 @inex I distinctly remember a post where someone did this with some odd angle on an ultrawide (getting its diagonal to be horizontal) and someone (maybe even the author) joked that finally the screen is wide enough for C++ compilation errors to fit without wrapping :blobcatheadache: It was either on Reddit or on Habr, I don't recall.  |
