  • Wine used to involve a lot of black magic and trading configs to get things to work.

    With the right incantations, and some luck and a few DLL replacements, you could make things mostly work.

    3-D rendering was a shit show earlier on. You just didn’t even try. DirectX was everywhere and unusable. It was probably a slow march, but it felt like a sudden boom when 3D started working and suddenly 2/3 of your games/apps would work natively with a smaller config/spell.

    Nothing like the lengthy spell castings of early wine. I summon thee brood wars!






  • Hah! So you want to respond but you don’t want me to? Interesting.

    The whole article reads like an advertisement.

    I’m fairly certain it is.

    The Chinese really like having control over major western social media outlets. They realized the power it gives them, and they’re so terrified by the power social media algorithms have that they released a major statement to all platforms operating in China that the social media algorithms are not to create echo chambers and must abide by a set of rules by June I think?

    Yeah the rules they put out showed fear of the power these platforms wield and rightly so.

    China is losing TikTok effectively, and they want users to move to the next Chinese platform. This article is an ad for it.
