That is why don’t put like, don’t subscribe, [don’t watch embedded shite-ads!] OK, YOU'VE GOT ME! THIS WAS PROPER OLDSCHOOL TEXT-BASED AD OF MYSELF. Some articles ago i’m [already mentioned] about possible updates right till 2026. German enthusiasts [discovered stubs] for feasible future upgrades.

UPDATED ON: 2023-02-16 Added super useful [interactive learning course] Vim is for sure a discovery of the day. It is a [very fast text editor] and will be helpful not only for coders, but can be useful for people who is working with insane amounts of text information. Software is 100% keyboard oriented. It’s based around original Unix text editor [Vi] , which was released back in 1976. VIM 9.

UPDATED ON: 2023-04-07 No chitter here, just plain breakdown of the most important stuff. ► WINDOWS 7 FIREWALL▼ [Outpost Firewall Pro] ◄ very advanced and lightweight firewall with host-based intrusion-prevention and anti-leak systems. Review is [here] .

Some time ago i’ve mentioned the fact about [Linux usage] on my laptop. It was a [Manjaro] based around [Arch] . Recently i stumbled upon [SalixOS] review. It’s a simplified [Slackware] distro with modern fast [Xfce] user interface. As you may already know Slackware is the most “Unix-like” Linux distribution. Besides i can’t afford myself to skip distro with motto: "Linux for the lazy Slacker" Here is a quick intro into Salix operating system.

Right after [Windows 7 reached end of life] in regards to non-pos esu updates i asked myself: “How can i improve security of ageing operating system?” Replacement of basic internal firewall comes back to mind in the very first place. After some comprehensive research i ended up with [Outpost Firewall Pro] , developed by [Agnitum] a small Russian company, which was acquired by crappy yandex later on. Software was dismissed after purchase immediately.

UPDATED ON: 2025-05-04 Section is constantly updated! For vintage web surfers most important things are here: plain txt file [may be a bit out of date] Power of vintage 2009 operating system by microsoft can’t be underestimated. [Windows 7 x64] supports up to 256 threads and up to 192Gb [or even 256Gb] of RAM. How cool is that, huh? 256 thread CPU appeared only a [short time ago] .

UPDATED ON: 2023-02-19 [Modernized remake] of vintage black and white [Outer Limits] of the 60s. Most of series are junk, but beware that in rare cases GEMS can be found. Anyways, serial is recommended for those who would like to experience 90s aesthetics like early CGI graphics, CRT monitors, pagers and "shiny new" cellphones.

Some really important dates, for those of you who are using Windows 7 as a daily driver machine.
As for me, i’m using Windows 7 not only with oldschool hardware, like [Xeon E5] , but with modern multicore platforms like [Ryzen] & [Threadripper] .

I have pretty strong nostalgia regarding vintage light effects. Vibrant blast of light beams: such scheme was very common during 80s days. I don’t understand why movie industry almost abandoned it in favor of generic non-atmospheric CGI illumination. Just check these light rays out! spacedrone808 @Adobe spacedrone808 @Freepik

AIO Repack of latest [Visual C++ Redistributable Runtimes] by well-known [abbodi1406] . High quality package without original payload bloat.

Most of you already know how AMD substitute in terms of cores/threads count intel’s pathetic’n’degenerative CPU evolution into revolution. Drastic changes were brought by [Ryzen] CPUs in consumer market in late 2017. [Threadripper] and [Epyc] lines were introduced later on [for workstation and server market respectively]. ► [128 core / 256 thread Epyc Bergamo CPU] It would be nice to see 256 threads in Windows 7 task manager, but i don’t think that it is possible due to lack of drivers.

OK. THIS IS IT. NO TURNING BACK. Yesterday we’ve got [last security update for Windows 7] . There will be no more security patches for Windows 7. At least on generic non-point-of-sales machines. Total of 40 vulnerabilities were fixed. Nice one! Compare it with 64 vulnerabilities on newest windows 11 telemetry gathering platform. Numbers clearly show benefits of mature platform. Easy and [fast update] using Simplix patcher. Oh and yeah, neat news regarding [official support of Secure Boot] .

Deep immersion into 1906. It almost makes you think that you are actually there, very-very close to reality! Moreover it really makes you feel like a time traveler as everyone stop and stare at you. DRASTICALLY REMASTERED FOOTAGE spacedrone808 @Adobe spacedrone808 @Freepik

UPDATED ON: 2023.01.26 Is it a detective? Horror? Comedy? Melodrama? Or psychedelic art-house? Giving glance onto [Twin Peaks] we can quickly discover that movie demonstrates not only serious detective elements, unserious humor, melodramatic notes but scary horror vibes at the same time. How could it be? Film forces watcher to experience controversial states of mind in a short amount of time and it surely features some kind of psychedelic vibes among the frames.

UPDATED ON: 2023-06-29 There are three main configuration files, which are controlling Fallout engine. ddraw.ini ◄ main configuration file f2_res.ini ◄ settings for high resolution patch fallout2.cfg ◄ classic settings file from 90s [preserved for compatibility almost depricated for now] Here i’ll mention the most important setttings, which can come in handy for almost every Fallout player out there.
