- Yeah, you are not alone with paranoia... I will quote famous words from System Shock 2: "Paranoia keeps us alive..."
- Damn, pretty amazing. Ruby is great. I personally still use good old Ruby-1.8.7 because its not bloated with Unicode and its very portable. I run it on Win32, Cygwin, Linux, FreeBSD. And I bet it can compile on more exotic platforms as well.
- bmonkey325 581 days agoI also carry a fondness for this version. also rare to know of rubyists outside of the Rails world. Rarer still with the tsunami that is Python. Seeing it run on a machine with less ram is quite remarkable.
- Ahh, those where the days.. Famous +++ATH ;)
- Ahh, the Visual C++. I used Visual C++ 6.0 for a looong time. It was decent compiler. I used it both from IDE and from cmd.exe using nmake. But, later, I found Mingw project and I moved to GCC.
- And not to vanish later...
- And do NOT forget that, you can also run DOOM inside DOOM! :)
- Hmm. Thats so much different from todays UNIX environment. Having just pure BASH terminal where you slap commands looks so much more productive, compared to this. SCREEN utility itself was amazing as well.
- Thats amazing to look how all that was stuffed into less than 24KB of memory.
Today we have GBs of RAM, CPUs clocked at 3GHz or more and software become very bloated (web and webbrowsers to the extreme).
- An old C and Borland Pascal graphic library that runs on DOS, Win32 and Linux (X11 and framebuffer).
I myself used it to port good old DOOM editor called ZETH. I also added it to my Ruby so I can do basic graph drawing from scripting language.
- Ah. Thanks! The site doesn't seem to work for me. All I see is a picture of space.
- same here, on Chrome
- Wow, what browser are you using? This site is old. It should render pretty much on anything I guess.. FF 2.x included ;)
What about IA version? I wonder if IPv6 is a problem here:
grx.gnu.de is an alias for https.gerwinski.de. https.gerwinski.de is an alias for mx3.gerwinski.de. mx3.gerwinski.de has address 88.198.170.59 mx3.gerwinski.de has IPv6 address 2a01:4f8:192:4405::170:59
- Ugh, thats crazy stuff.. I remember playing DOOM on my 386DX40 and peformance was not good. I had to reduce screen size and do double pixels. 486SX25 peformed much better, especially when I overclocked it to 33MHz.

An optimized Doom for the 386.
- There's a better Doom hack for 386 without sacrificing too much quality.
- Amazing hack. Definitely in the amazing it even works category.
