SOLARIS ▀ THE BEST SOVIET SCI-FI FILM

[Solaris] is the best soviet Sci-Fi movie produced by [Andei Tarkovsky] . It often counts as direct answer to beautiful and timeless [2001: A Space Odyssey] by [Stanley Kubrick] .

UNREAL REDUX ▀ FAN MADE REMASTER

UNREAL REDUX ▀ FAN MADE REMASTER

[Unreal] is a cult 3D shooter developed by EpicMegaGames back in the 1998. Game unfairly received much less attention comparing to well-known Half-life, despite: more beautiful computer graphics, more atmospheric soundtrack and better overall design. One of the first games to implement 32-bit color and complex illumination. Reason: game was more demanding on system resources. Pentium II with at least 128Mb of ram and powerful GFX accelerator were mandatory requirements.

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.

AGNITUM OUTPOST FIREWALL PRO ▀ ADVANCED PROTECTION FOR WINDOWS 7

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.

THE OUTER LIMITS [1995-2002] ▀ WEIRD MISS'N'HIT

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.
