There is an OpenRA mod called Combined Arms. It is incredible! Been a C&C fan from the beginning, but prefer the originals. Combined arms gives me the feel of the originals with the features of the latter versions. The AI can really be brutal if you suck like me, unless you turn it down.

Lots of fun.

If memory serves, devs were pretty upset when Jobs killed it. Think there is even a video on YT where one dev gives Jobs a mouthful. Using it, I can see why. It was an internet precursor.

"it can disengage it's rotor systems and ignite these 2 additional turbines. 3.2 seconds after liftoff, Airwolf and exceed mach 1 from sea level to 65000 ft"

This is hypocritical. Charge one man with a felony, raid his home, put his face all over TV...THEN.. don't charge another with the same thing because he's just an "elderly man with a poor memory".

So, they shut down a coal plant to rely on...another coal plant for power generation. How exactly did it 'replace' the last coal plant?

Had cool sounds too.

OMG, completely forgot about ARJ!

Liked Telemate also. Pretty sure it had the ability to script a session. You could create a script and set it to dial in when nobody was on the board, download a file and log off, saving precious time on the board, and the busy signal.

Also liked Telix. Was more simple and like Procomm, but Telemate seemed more extensible.

BBSs were much more personal and local than the internet. I remember going to local board (BBS) parties where you met the face behind the avatar. Online games, chatting with sysops, downloading filez... Those were the days.

Hope not. I like Brave

Or CNN or MSNBC

Then Neverlock came around. Was incredible.

Still remember the small loader files that ran before the game started - 'cracked by ... (INC, Razor, Fairlight, whoever). Those were cool.

Loved demos back in the day. Second Reality is still one of my favorites.

Haven't experienced that once. Always seems fine to me.

Well that was completely political...

When I saw it, thought the exact same thing.

Have a pile of inherited laserdiscs. not sure what to do with em.. Anyone want to trade vintage computers for a bunch of laserdiscs?

Why is this flagged???

I've noticed every pro-conservative comment in threads on Hackernews are now flagged, reported or strongly downvoted. I thought HN wouldn't come to this and would be the one place everyone could talk. Unfortunately, like on reddit, quora, etc, conservatives aren't allowed to talk anymore without censorship. So much for free speech.

News doesn't report positivity anymore. Only how the world is burning...

What?

I would agree with him to a point. Productivity on full remote workers can be difficult to track and is likely not higher than in office. When I worked from home full time, it was more difficult to maintain productivity as much as while in office. Also, the psychological benefits of in office work definitely come into play here. I believe a hybrid approach is the best and has many benefits (which I won't go into for brevity)

There are so many "facts that aren't so" here, I'm not even going to attempt..

Depends on your personality. Some excel with remote, some prefer hybrid or in office 100%. I would agree that if you have the option to come in, try it and see if that resolves the issue. I work hybrid and, oddly enough, am happy when I'm in the office. It also makes we enjoy when I work from home more.

Love this!

yeah, it's pretty nasty. Free looks pretty java-centric. What's weird is you can in-line RPG. Makes for some crazy looking code.

The hardware is solid. The development community is aging out.

We have the same thing and are currently migrating off as there are no RPG developers available for hire. Most of them are retiring. There are very few schools teaching RPG 3, 4, and Free.

Always thought DC was a bada$$. He worked on NT, Azure, and Xbox. Would love to meet him.

Very nice. Looks to be more of a FET.

True. Very true.

I prefer the actual interview. Very intriguing and entertaining to watch. Not really interested in Politico's left spin on it.
