Brilliant high quality review of a really interesting and compact SCSI card for those of you who want to keep your Amiga up to date.

Bring your museum 4.7Mhz XT machine up to the performance of an AT 286 machine. In those days, productivity gains were measured in times, not the measly percentage units that currently are common practice in the marketing world today. Adrian has done a very interesting review of such a rare accelerator. Thanks fly out to him, enjoy!

I already marked stand-from-the-crowd [Neo Geo console]
of the early 90s. Now it is time to mention a Japanese computer that is definitely made with love and effort, just look at it’s design!

It’s been a while since i watched Chyrosran22 YT channel.
If you are interested, here is one more unusual video unpacking of pretty obscure keyboard.

You can say what you want, but the fact that the 90s is the golden age of the coolest SciFi is an undeniable fact. Despite its rather simple and somewhat childish plot, [FIFTH ELEMENT]
raises quite important questions about human existence. From a design point of view, I like the fact that the movie mostly shows real decorations, not just soulless computer graphics, which certainly adds analog warmth to the movie.

If someone doesn’t like this kind of information, I will remove it immediately on first request without any questions. Since we have crossed the EOL line of Windows 7 POS support, I think no one will mind if I post the list of current activators for the Windows 7 operating system.
As far as I know, we have four options to choose from:
[DAZ loader]
► 108% working solution to activate distributions based upon classic MBR partition [KMS by Ratiborus]
► rearming software, which can activate GPT-based Pro and Enterprise editions [KMS rearm script]
► rearming scipt, which can activate GPT-based Pro and Enterprise editions [RemoveWAT]
► legacy GPT compatible activator [not maintained anymore] Also list of activators can be found on [this page]
.
Monday is hard, but we shall overcome it.

As you may already know i am using [Windows 7 as a daily driver even in 2024]
pretty much for everything. I think most of the sofa expert’s conclusions about Windows 7’s obsolescence are [out of touch with reality]
. ACTUAL HARDWARE SETUP:
32-thread modern CPU 64Gb of DDR5 RAM fast NVME drive 24Gb of video memory
WHO NEEDS MORE?
Such hardware specs are achieved by [CanonKong’s modern chipset driver]
.
It looks like we have reached the very last driver for the Nvidia 3XXX series of graphics cards. They promised that the final revision of the driver will see the light of day in late September. As of early October, the latest version of the driver is [v475.14]
, released on July 9. But I have a feeling that Nvidia will release another very final version later on, if this is true I’ll update post accordingly.
First of all, I’d like to note that this post is not an advertisement and it is not sponsored, I’m just REALLY impressed by software and decided to share this lucky find with all of you.
Actual Window Manager has quite boring and generic naming, but in reality it is highly advanced and modern window manager that offers broad functionality combined with 90’s quality.
Adding this software to your arsenal it’s like entering cheat-code for superpowers.
[HighTreason]
is not that active these days, so i have to find a solid substitute for my retro hardware cravings. And, oh boy, that was not an easy task to complete, i can barely find a solid reviewer among hundreds of sellouts, boring and just plain ignorant vloggers.
But in the end of the day i found him! Yeah, it is [RetroSpector78]
from Belgium. His speciality is producing reviews of obscure and rare pieces of computer hardware [primarily from 80s-90s era] with episodic dives into the software field.
Today I learned I was permanently banned from Reddit’s Windows 7 channel. Here is a [post]
where i to take the liberty of writing my own opinion on the topic.
Removed comment:
Dude, malware and telemetry gathering are embedded in official updates. So what?
K4sum1 is doing nice job for the Windows 7 users by compiling modern Firefox called R3dFox.
Decide for yourself afterward whether to use it or not.
Is it Friday or not, for God’s sake? Here are some retro-O-matic tracks right in your years. For some reason, unlisted or private videos can’t be viewed on the mobile version of the site, although the desktop template works fine. I am investigating the matter.

Previously i’ve already posted things about the Japanese Neo Geo console [here]
and [here]
. And now I would like to introduce you the newest NeoGeo game, which has some similarities with the well-known [Metal Slug]
, but this fact does not cancel the beauty of pixel art and pulse-pounding soundtrack of Kraut Buster.Some footages.

Good news for all Windows 7 users! Material is provided by [official release calendar]
. SO, IT LOOKS LIKE THAT 115 BRANCH WILL BE THE LONGEST SUPPORTED ESR BRANCH EVER! Please, take a note that 115 ESR branch is [significantly slower]
than [hacked R3DFox]
! Firefox 115 ESR is for those people who prefer only official versions and do not trust to third-party developers.

No posts about VS Code for so long time? This should be fixed.
Today i’ll do a little note regarding visual looks of the editor. Honestly, I already have my personalized theme. But after seeing [Retrowave84’s skin]
, I was so impressed with the overall aesthetics and correctly set glow and shadow effects, that I decided to stack it on my own theme, to get the best things from both of them.
I have a ton of various batch files and scripts that i use in my daily process to simplify routine actions. Copy/move files, start/stop services, run applications with specific parameters, embed Exif tags, and much more.
Most of them are executed by assigned shortcuts. Because of their quantity they begin to interfere with global shortcuts of installed software. That’s why I want to draw a visible logical line between shortcuts for scripts and shortcuts for applications.
[Save the green planet]
is a totally unexpected find. Tired of cliche-crap hollywood “comedies” that are not even remotely fun to watch? THEN TRY THIS! Nice blend of mature black humor is always a bargain, especially in 2024.

Although I have been using Linux more and more in recent work, Windows 7 remains my main production operating system. And here is an excellent finding for Windows 7 crony named [Capster]
. Its main functionality is to launch the specified executable at startup time when the [CAPS LOCK] key is set to ON or OFF. I use Capser to run backup script, that backs up previously selected folders [if i want to].
Recently run into excellent rant about Windows 7 operating system. Totally agree with all the things mentioned. Here is a heap of my personal screenshots just to back up this speech.

that runs actual versions just fine, so i do not understand these comments about the obsolescence of this nice operating system.
░ PREFACE WORDS In this post I would like to share some Unix experience I have gained while deploying a website under certain conditions. The testbed environment was created using VirtualBox 7 on a Windows 7 operating system. I chose [OpenBSD]
because of it’s unparalleled focus on security and privacy features. It is also unusual and very unpopular. And of course because of [OpenBSD slogan]
: Only two remote holes in the default install, in a heck of a long time!
The [Acorn computer]
is probably one of the most underrated in computer history. All mobile device manufacturers should give a credit to the developers of Acorn’s first RISC computer. They developed the first System-on-Chip CPU. Without the efforts of Acorn engineers you would probably be running an overheated, crashing quad-core CISC CPU from Intel in your mobile device in 2024.
