Thanks for your hard work…

[…] We’ve succeeded beyond my dreams. The drivers are fully upstream in Mesa. Performance isn’t too bad… Satisfied, I am now stepping away from the Apple ecosystem. My friends in the Asahi Linux orbit will carry the torch from here.[…]

**sigh**
Been having problems with my instance over the last couple of days - turns out my disk is nearly full!
Am I right in thinking that all data on other instances that any of my accounts here has interacted with is stored on here?
And if I delete it, it will just be pulled again if I ever need it?
And, if so, how do I go about that?

TIA!

Okay, I just learned something.. but it also gave me quite a headache!

I had received an "Incorrect MS-DOS version" error message from EDLIN.EXE, when running it from an official MS-DOS 6 Supplemental Disk from within MS-DOS 6. That... shouldn't happen.

Took me a few moments to figure that one out. Several days ago, I had upgraded that very 86Box installation from MS-DOS 5.0 to 6.0. Because of this, SETVER.EXE still remembered EDLIN.EXE to be a "5.00" application, which confused the modern EDLIN.EXE to throw that error message. It worked fine again after I removed it from the version table.

Let's just say, I had the urge to slam my head into a wall for a moment.

That was fun!

Hi #FediLZ, #FediCampus & Co.,

#FollowerPower ist gefragt: Ist von euch wer motiviert, #Microsoft zu fragen, ob sie Gratis- (bzw. Sonder-) Support für #Windows11 bis 2028 für #Schule, #Uni, #Verein gewähren?

Schließlich will MS eine „Infrastruktur für eine nachhaltige Welt“, wie sie scheiben = no #eWaste.

(Das soll aber nicht vom Umstieg auf #Linux abhalten!)

Darum geht es:
