Thread 106326333

Doesn't have to be old software, it can be something that mimics it.

I still use the blue/black skin on the right to mimic winamp 5 on qmmp on linux.

GNU Emacs. In fact I'm listening to music on it whilst writing this very post.

Always wanted to get into BBSs but it feels like I am going to get fucked and trolled if I go there. It's too secluded and cliquey.

Winamp with some esoteric old plug-ins
Does Tcl/Tk count as old? I still use it for scripts and quick tools

Cliques all suck. People who put themselves above others are all always utterly obnoxious

not like that at all. if you have interest in certain thing, especially in retro computer world, there's a board for it and nice people there.

Cliques are are form of gatekeeping to prevent normies from turning a space into another generic normie hole.

Hidmacros
Some ancient windows 95 macro tool that supports multiple keyboards and handles them as separate input devices
So if you plugged in a second full size keyboard to your computer and bound the letter g to something it would not bind your main keyboard's g key

Cool Edit Pro 1.2a and Ulead Gif Animator are kind of old.

Old software runs into the ship of Theseus problem. I want to see software that hasn't changed in years.

.The iping32 tool (older "dangerous" version) from the wsftp package.
. ACDSee Classic.
. Octopus downloader.
. Proxomitron.
. Optix Pro.

Sometimes VirtualDub2 for clipping, stitching, video filters.
I typically use FFmpeg directly on the command line, along with shell and/or lua scripts (in conjuncture with mpv), but sometimes I still use VirtualDub, which let's me serve/pipe frames directly to the any external binary, like ffmpeg, so it all ends up being the same tools interfacing with each other to combine their feature-sets.
I particularly like how fast it starts up and responds, along with how easy it is to customize the hotkeys and encoders.
I do my edits, hit the export to external encoder key, and select the profile (command line parameter set) I want ffmpeg to use.

Accurately simulating the universe is not easy, to pinpoint one small fraction of truth. Since it requires data on scales LITERALLY hitherto undreamt of, we should start with just a simple study of what we would need to simulate a tiny little morsel of our planet.

Well, since I plan to make ancestor simulations one of my future projects, one cool thing we will need to simulate is every software humans have created. Making this thread a perfect synchronicity gold mine for anachronistic understanding of acausal connections.

Surprised no one mentioned roguelikes (eg. Rogue, Angband, etc.)
Brogue is new but since it uses ASCII I guess it falls under the category that imitates old.

Oof, now that's a name I've not heard and a long time. Makes me think of back some time 10 to 15 years ago (!!!) when I was ricing windows 7 to look like OSX using rocket dock and windows blinds and some other shit I don't recall.
