Curious about Amiga and Doom, I found this on Youtube:

Doom didn't kill the Amiga...Wolfenstein 3D did
https://youtu.be/wsADJa-23Sg?s...

From the description:
"Wolfenstein 3D released by id Software in 1992 brought in a change to video games. 2D games were no longer cool and texture mapped 3d rendered games were taking over. However, the ray casting technology presented a challenge if you owned an Amiga computer - it simply wasn't capable of running Wolfenstein 3d and in many ways Wolfenstein 3d can be seen as a major milestone that determined the fate of the Commodore Amiga that went bankrupt in 1994. In this episode we take a closer look at the Amiga and its many FPS clones that attempted to emulate the technology and success of Wolfenstein 3D, but ultimately led to the demise of Commodore."

Why doesn't slashdot have a dark mode?

Agreed. I remember lurking on BBS forums on my 386 reading about how we would all need to upgrade to a 486 with a whopping 4MB of RAM to play it properly! One of the most anticipated games ever until Quake in those days. Ah the memories.

It made me laugh. It was funny. Lighten up, you'll live longer.

THIS!!! Putin only invaded when US presidents were democratic understanding that they are pacifists and would not directly retaliate. And Putin advocates the candidate that creates the most turmoil in US elections. However, in this case, he thinks that Trump will be willing to negotiate an end to the war which has gone on far longer than he expected and become too costly. Putin is desperate to end the war by keeping what's he has conquered and preventing Ukraine from joining Nato, which allows him to not lose face. He will go back, lick his wounds and try again when the next democratic president is elected. Maybe Belarus that time.

And thank you for your contributions!

I remember when Carmack first mentioned rereading the Mythical Man Month years ago and praised it highly. So I seeked it out. A timeless classic and a must read.

Don't worry. You'll be old before you know it wondering where all the time went. Cherish it.

The game was fun and unique for it's time. A good change of pace from Warcraft and Diablo. Glad to see it's still doing well today.

Yep. It was alot of fun. :)

LOL. I vaguely remember that cheat....

This!

Then Christmas lights and the rest of the industry are also a crime against humanity. It's the part where we intentionally waste resources and contribute to climate change on a massive scale, just to feed greed and useless gift giving and wrapping.

Same can be said for any market.

So what do they do to cause the testicles to descend?

It won't get anywhere with that attitude. Nor does any progress in any new field. The world has advanced because someone, somewhere is working on something no one else believes in. And out of billions of people, that one person will help change the world. Musk, Einstein, Satoshi, etc

The rest of the people sit on the sidelines talking shit doing nothing. That's what slashdot has become.
