When this first came out I retrieved the list of stations (around 20k, I think it was just a JSON file), converted it to .m3u8, and I have since used it as a playlist for WinAmp. It's playing one of those streams right now, using 4MB of memory and practically no CPU.

Over the years, several streams (or the station themselves unfortunately) have gone offline. To refresh my list I'd have to scrape the "globe", and it doesn't feel like the right think to do.

Has anyone encountered a similar website, but with a simple list of public streams?

The page "What does it take to take an old game apart? (Part 3)" mentions the 'restunts' project to reverse-engineer Stunts / 4d Sports Driving, and finding limited information about it.

There's actually a small group working on it, and more details here: https://forum.stunts.hu/index.php?board=90.0

Disclosure: I manage the forum where the discussion is happening, I'll need up my SEO if the author could not find it :P

I've tried several launchers in the past decades, across operating systems. On Windows I'm a happy Keypirinha user — it's fast, uses a twentieth of the memory needed by its C# relatives (Run, Flow, etc.), and results appear with almost no latency as I type.

Plenty of plug-ins (list here https://ue.spdns.de/packagecontrol/ ) and they are fairly easy to develop: a Python code that returns a catalog of results, statically or dynamically.

https://dreadnaut.altervista.org - I can't believe I've been writing on it for 20 years now. I duplicated all content in English and Italian for a few years, then stuck to Italian when I moved to the UK — need to keep the balance.

To ensure we can maintain the highest standards in the future we will stop free mailboxes beyond the first year, and price it at £2.99 per month for standard mailboxes and £5.99 per month for premium mailboxes and we will expand the e-mail offering with:

- More storage space for your mailbox

- Backups and datacentre redundancy for disaster recovery

- Better anti-spam and anti-virus protection

- Mailbox search

- Strong mail server security

> My complaint is it should store each email in its own file

Thunderbird supports one-file-per-email (Maildir) accounts, see settings. It's still marked as "experimental" because of some edge cases, but I have not encountered issues in many years, and it makes for a snappier experience.

Péter/Zak originally started the competition in 2001. I started helping out in 2012, and took over the main duties a few years later.

But indeed, that's Zak from the game! The favicon for the website is also a tiny version of the character's sprite.

I run a 22yo online competition for a 32yo DOS racing game: Stunts, or 4D Sports Driving in some countries. The competition has spawned a long-lived community which includes reverse engineering, game patches, new cars, alternative engines, a few world meetings, and multiple other competitions.

Don't panic: this deprecates `${var}`, which is a less-common syntax for interpolation, but leaves the most common ones, `$var` and `{$var}`, in place.

It reduces the number of slightly different ways to do one thing, and clears the ground for adding any-expression interpolation, which PHP is currently missing.

> Does anyone have any examples of any other single-file app with a comprehensive interface like Files app that is entirely self-contained?

phpLiteAdmin (https://github.com/phpLiteAdmin/pla) is developed as separate PHP, JS, and CSS files. A "build" script merges all into a single PHP script, which includes compressed resources inlined after a call to `__halt_compiler()`. The same code can run as separate files, or as a single one.

I wrote the original "build", years ago, as we started extracting classes out of a procedural single file.

No problem, thank you!

Did you, by any chance, work on "Stunts" at Broderbund too? There's a reverse engineering effort around http://forum.stunts.hu/ that would dream to have a glimpse of the source code :)
