17:05 🔗 SketchCow DFJustin: https://archive.org/details/win3_HHMysTik
17:06 🔗 SketchCow I tried win3_bloat but that seemed to think Quicktime was still not installed.
17:09 🔗 DFJustin win3.1 quicktime is picky about which version you have
17:10 🔗 SketchCow OK. So maybe it's a lost cause
17:12 🔗 DFJustin might be a path issue too
17:12 🔗 DFJustin for me it fails to download game file 2 of 2
17:17 🔗 SketchCow Oh, is it not bloat
17:17 🔗 SketchCow One moment
17:17 🔗 SketchCow (I whipped the name out)
17:18 🔗 SketchCow Oops, -bloat
17:19 🔗 SketchCow emularity_win31/win31-bloat.zip
17:20 🔗 SketchCow Weeeird, it's failing even on incognito
17:20 🔗 SketchCow OK, works now
17:20 🔗 SketchCow Man, forget my cholesterol and blood pressure, it's this buffering that's shorted my life
17:22 🔗 bai looks like the download speed issues are fixed at least
17:23 🔗 DFJustin kinda
17:23 🔗 SketchCow Kinda
17:23 🔗 SketchCow Yeah, super kinda
17:23 🔗 SketchCow OK, it works!!
17:24 🔗 bai oh yeah, I see what you mean
17:25 🔗 bai I get a nice burst of 30 MB/s at the front, then it quickly throttles down to ~1.5 MB/s
17:25 🔗 SketchCow Yes
17:26 🔗 SketchCow And I think this is basically endemic in the router level.
17:26 🔗 SketchCow I suspect there's some sort of thing built up in how we have things set with the ciscos. When he's not on fire I'll talk to our network guy about it.
17:26 🔗 bai yeah, it feels like either QoS gone wrong or a buffering issue
17:27 🔗 SketchCow Ok, the Hawaii thing is working - I'm now running the screenshotter.
17:27 🔗 bai such a catchy song, too
17:27 🔗 SketchCow It's way nicer than it needs to be
17:27 🔗 SketchCow For Windows 3.1
17:27 🔗 bai yeah, no wonder it's a 65mb file though, that's probably a raw wav
17:29 🔗 SketchCow What's your thought on the $199 Facebook Facehugger
17:31 🔗 bai good hardware, great for the VR industry, but covered in that facebook slime
17:31 🔗 SketchCow So kind of like the cuecat
17:32 🔗 bai haha
17:33 🔗 bai it's disturbing watching tcpdumps on my router if my internet connection is down. it turns into a battle between Google and Facebook to see who can get the most frantic about not being able to call home
17:33 🔗 bai just a constant stream of attempts to contact their servers when I'm nowhere near thier dumb software
17:35 🔗 SketchCow https://archive.org/details/win3_HHMysTik has a screenshot!
18:12 🔗 db48x heh
18:28 🔗 SketchCow db48x: Have you noticed every discussion I include you in with regards to emulation eventually ends with someone going 'Oh, hey, so how about the copyright'
18:28 🔗 SketchCow And then the sound of wind
18:33 🔗 bai I'm sure johannes gutenberg gave all kinds of shit about people who constantly asked him "but aren't you worried that this technology could be used to grant people access to information that's currently wholly owned and controlled by the large institutions of our time, thus circumventing their means of control and opening up entirely new avenues of for expression and distribution of ideas?"
18:41 🔗 SketchCow Oh, I'm not sure
18:41 🔗 SketchCow I mean, I get the joke/reference but he was always, ALWAYS a jobs/musk guy
18:41 🔗 SketchCow Original Gutenberg bibles are basically Teslas
19:40 🔗 db48x SketchCow: I did notice that happen!
19:43 🔗 db48x I thought about replying
