It was not. 30 years ago, it would have been very good, though, as a lot of media was still SD.

Device, maybe. What happens to the games bought from a DRM monopoly?

I guess you weren’t in the ring.

Right. Site plugins or something.

Could be a liability for them to have to work on support for those sites when it breaks.

I once had a hard drive of some particular vintage that wasn’t able to start. I did actually get it running with a hammer tap. Got the remains of data out and replaced the drive. It was nothing special, a Unix system drive with nothing that wasn’t on tape, but I just had to see if I could fix a hard drive with a hammer.

I also remember one admin who would often be seen walking between computer maintenance room and workshop wing with drives and a blacksmiths hammer labelled “format”.

A programmer is a device for turning caffeine into code (to borrow a math joke).

Really nice and comprehensive looking page. Should probably test drive that some day. Thanks.

PHP warning.

A router is often just a switch with extra steps.

GitHub is evil, but yes. If that’s where they have a bug tracker, that would probably be the preferred place for suggestions. Also you can browse other tickets. There should be a tab saying “issues” or something like that. Posting will need an account, almost certainly.

You could try posting or sending in a feature request.

If you can use a spare box or at least a boot device, there are systems like https://batocera.org/ that will box a lot of stuff together. Obviously independent emulators are all distributed independently though many of them do multiple systems.

Better share the love while you can.

Not optical disks, though. Especially burnables. They have a shelf life. Make sure to replicate the data in time.

Yes. Got to admit mine just isn’t as big as yours, though.

You can only compress data to some extent. You could see if any of the files are encoded in an older or less efficient codec than what you have. Transcoding does introduce some distortion, but usually not too bad for utility use like learning material.

The other option is to get rid of some data. Delete some of the files. Use a (non-recompressing) editor to clip out parts you don’t need. Transcode with lower resolution and/or bitrate/complexity.

It all depends on what you have and what you’re able and willing to do with it. There is no universal silver bullet to get you more storage space. Other than actually getting more storage space.

Meaning spam to signal ratio is about 50000000:1.

Wait till you try transparent pngs. It’ll be like it should have always been.

So, have they found the Bigfoot in the code?
