What the kids call "DOS games" nowadays... Half of the games on this list are for Windows 95 or later.

The site should call them PC games.

Okay Boomer...

This comment looks like it is written by an ai clanker. Also the other one from "hnrprtlpdb". Interesting...

That's exactly what I am looking for several years. Because VSCode is a bit slow via RDP or X11 Remote. I will try it out when I'm back at work.

Beneath a Steel Sky (1994) should be on this list.

It's freeware, available from GOG: https://www.gog.com/en/game/beneath_a_steel_sky

We called it the semantic web in the 90s. But it never really happened. Then we got Google and no longer needed it.
This should be linked as the original post: https://ir.cwi.nl/pub/5998

It says 1988 there.

Maybe that's something to report to the "European System of Financial Supervision" or some other EU government agency.

They even have a Whistleblowing link at the bottom of their website: https://www.bankingsupervision.europa.eu/about/esfs/html/ind...

More interesting imho is that they also offer a Community Edition of C++Builder: https://www.embarcadero.com/products/cbuilder/starter

Back in the days (~ 25 years ago) it was the standard IDE to use for writing C++ Windows programs. But it was Borland back then iirc before Embarcadero took over.

There is a bug with the captcha box: I solve it then I hear the "welcome sound" but the captcha popup never closes. I use Opera on Android.
Getting the "Hello World" to compile and run is often the most difficult part of a project. After that it's only easy incremental improvements.
Firefox, Chromium vs Internet Explorer, Opera, old Edge, even Netscape.
