I might be really late on this but I discovered website that I think is just as amazing as myabandonware today through a youtube video by a channel called Dungeon Chill.
collectionchamber.blogspot.com I'm putting this post here for myself as much as everyone else. This kind of stuff is my jam.

Wow. It gets better. Apparently an website is the "Official" result for the 1992 Space Crusade computer game 😆

If it wasn't abandonware then I think Microsoft might end up getting stern words from someone's lawyer!

@libreoffice @avon_deer @aetus yeah, that"s because basically gave the original devs the middle finger and they hard-forked to .

And then Oracle made it basically so it ended up at the Apache Foundation...

Similar to vs. but both are and don't share any codebase whatsoever!

This morning's Steam Deck rabbithole... how to get Black & White running and seeing if it's possible to source a copy of War For Cybertron. Two properly great games that have evaporated into the ether due to stupid licensing/legal shennanigans.

Ayé ! Terminé ! 25 ans après sa sortie, j'ai rejoué avec plaisir à , jeu immersif où la progression se fait toute en furtivité (sinon gare à la sanction ☠️ ). Impressionné à l'époque par son ambiance sonore et son côté médiéval, ce conserve tout son charme.
L'anti-jeu de bourrin par excellence (même si j'aime bien aussi bourriner de temps en temps)

Perhaps software should follow similar rules to patents (at least, how I understand them in the UK). Expires after 20 years, unless you apply in the 20th year for it to be renewed for a further 5. After that, PD.

Thoughts?

'Software copyright should officially expire after 20 years, clarifying the status of obsolete works and letting the support systems grow as they see fit. [...] Whether this newly freed software makes it into full open sourcehood would be for us all to decide, yet it would remove that barrier to freedom that "we want to make this FOSS, but there are licensed components we can't give away."'

I think that the and all the other big governments should & as the |s they are and also strip of any rights protections like ...

Also any infringement on is bad, including shit like "locking down firmware" to "enforce spectrum compliance" or whatever bullshit figleaf they make up...

I wish that Kojima would take on a remake of the Silent Hill franchise too.
