As a weekend project, I'm going to install a fourth Linux distro on my desktop PC to get some gaming going! Batocera is a Linux distro that supports over 220 gaming platforms and consoles, including MS-DOS, PS1-PS4, and various controllers directly.

I've built a couple of custom handheld consoles for retro gaming using RetroArch and EmulationStation, and we have an arcade machine with a JAMMA circuit board at the office, but I haven't tried Batocera before. Let the games begin!

I think issuing 20+ #AI generated PRs in a timespan of 24h can be considered the open source equivalent of a #DoS attack right? Sounds like a reason to ban without explanation?

That would be the sensible thing to do, but I’m not sensible so I’m going to overcook and probably spend hours this weekend writing an article in which I explain the hostility of this use of AI. Because I want to fix the world.

Can any #retrocomputing nerd suggest a tool to dump every register on a #vga from #dos into a text file? Ideally also the state of the int10 interface.

Ideally I want to be able to sample the state of the VGA at different states of brokenness.

I have read the osdev wiki on the vga and I'm pretty confident I can write something myself, but I'd rather use something that is known to work so I'm not compounding the uncertainty in my debugging efforts.

Thanks! ♥️

Momentum.

In the #dos days (before windows95),, #linux partitioning was easier for #dos people to use. Plus you could easily mount #dos disks under Linux if you dual booted. Along with that, dos utilities were created to read/write ext2. Those did not exist to write data to ufs from dos.

By 1997/8, people mainly stuck with #linux. In that period, v3&4 of #FreeBSD was awesome, but then v5 came out and that version got nothing but bad press 😞 So here we are.

New #CommonLisp library: cl-inix, a flexible #DOS/#Linux .INI/.conf file parser and processor, superseding unmaintained and inflexible cl-ini. Allows you to get .INI files parsed in the format you prefer, get values from there, and write them back however you like.

Because .INI files are underrated and deserve more use. No bullshit plaintext configuration format, for once.

Here's the original, unaltered U.S. floppy disk version of SimCity Classic for DOS. With file dates from August of 1993, this is the very first revision. Sorry for the delay, but I imported these from the USA. For the retro collectors!

Brash: Chromium Browser DoS Attack via document.title Exploitation

Brash is a critical vulnerability in Blink, the rendering engine that powers Google's Chromium-based browsers. It allows any Chromium browser to collapse in 15-60 seconds by exploiting an architectural flaw in how certain DOM operations are managed.

»Crash, Boom, Bang—Offene Sicherheitslücke lässt fast alle aktuellen Browser abstürzen:
Das Problem betrifft sämtliche Chromium-basierten Browser und zeigt damit, wie weit die Monokultur in diesem Bereich vorangeschritten ist«

Vorher hatte ich oben den original Link getootet. Hier noch ein deutscher Artikel erklärend darüber.
