The words of the Teacher, son of David, king in Jerusalem: 2 “Meaningless! Meaningless!” says the Teacher. “Utterly meaningless! Everything is meaningless.” 3 What do people gain from all their labors at which they toil under the sun? 4 Generations come and generations go, but the earth remains forever. 5 The sun rises and the sun sets, and hurries back to where it rises. 6 The wind blows to the south and turns to the north; round and round it goes, ever returning on its course. 7 All streams flow into the sea, yet the sea is never full. To the place the streams come from, there they return again. 8 All things are wearisome, more than one can say. The eye never has enough of seeing, nor the ear its fill of hearing. 9 What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun. 10 Is there anything of which one can say, “Look! This is something new”? It was here already, long ago; it was here before our time. 11 No one remembers the former generations, and even those yet to come will not be remembered by those who follow them.

I love the Barn Shed, wallpaper, thanks for reminding me!!!!

Well, what does it matter which version something is, not like anybody's ever going to find the "last version" anyways. Here's the last remaining download websites for windows 3.1 programs.... that I know of..... http://files.mpoli.fi/software/WIN16/ An ancient, and I mean ancient website that's been floating in cyberspace, untouched since I first discovered it back in the mid nineties. I honestly can't think of a single website that is older without changing. LOL. This thing is a damn relic. https://www.sac.sk/ Slovak Anti Virus Center...... basically a HUGE pile of old, ancient, useless Win9x and Win3 and DOS software https://ftp.sunet.se/mirror/archive/ftp.sunet.se/pub/simtelnet/win3/ Mirror of the old Simtel.Net http://ftp.lip6.fr/pub/pc/garbo/windows/ And lastly, but not the least, the Garbo PC Collection for Win31...... another ancient, archaeological dead fossil from the early 90s. I was a teenager when I'd spend hours and hours downloading crap from there on my 56k modem. Enjoy, Win31 fans.

Great news to me. Chinese authorities don't like seeing the Statue of Liberty in American-made movies (Spider-Man No Way Home). It's only fair that we ban Tik Tok.

I'm not an expert, but it seems hypocritical of China to complain about America banning Tiktok, when the Chinese Communist Party bans Google and Meta from being used by Chinese netizens. So from my point of view, as an exhausted, tired, cynical, nearly apathetic American, is I'd rather NOT have Chinese companies running their biased algorithms (in order to destabilize my country) on platforms used by Americans. In fact, I'd rather we just ban EVERYTHING Chinese altogether, including all their spies crossing our borders illegally. The entire reason of existence for the CCP is to control and censor information to make themselves look better and everybody else look worse. So no, I don't think we should allow some Chinese companies FREEDOM to espouse their anti-American and anti-Western views inside our own countries. We aren't allowed to post anti-Chinese new stories and articles inside China, are we? Just because we live in a democracy, doesn't mean our flow of information has to be for sale to the highest bidder, there still has to be some morals and principles related to freedom of speech. And letting some communists, and America-haters run the algorithms that control what stories and news articles are trending, doesn't bode well for the future of a stable, democratic society. These are the same Chinese rulers who tell Hollywood which scenes and dialogue are to be erased from movies before they can be seen in China. These are the same Chinese rulers who teach their school children to hate Japanese people and to hate Americans for existing, and because they have some arrogant, "century of humiliation" grievances in their deluded minds. For example, they erased the statue of Liberty from the most recent Spider-man film. What a bunch of cowards, is all I can say. Why don't we just make movies, software, and hardware for Americans and like-minded democratic allies? In my opinion we should COMPLETELY de-couple from China, and Russia. But that's just my two cents. I'll just put it even more simply and bluntly..... they (Russia and China) hate the Western world, so I dislike them back..... they have no business in our open societies. All they want to do is undermine our cultures and destroy us. So, I'm going to vote with my wallet, and not buy anything Chinese or Russian. I don't support Chinese and Russian fascism.

the interface on Windows 95 was faster. At least it had visible scroll bars that didn't require hovering over to make appear.

Did a little google search and discovered something called "Wine" that supposedly runs win32 programs on Linux... hmm. What they should do, is somehow bundle Chicaco95 and Wine together, so you never need to do ANYTHING linux related. Just make a ready-to-go Windows 95 clone that runs straight out of the box, with Wine included.

Can it run actual Win9x programs? How about DOS programs? If they made a Linux that looked like that, plus ran Win32 software, I'd be all over that. But it's probably just for looks only, right?

I hate how I need to hover my mouse pointer over the scrolling bar in order to make it appear! At first I couldn't figure out how to scroll the page. And half the time, the arrow and page down keys don't work. I thought they mastered that in Windows 3.1, but I guess I was mistaken... It's never too late to regress! It's a non-productive interface to say the least. And the original poster's point about it being designed for a phone screen I think is right, why else is everything so shrunken and tiny, but for to save space on the screen. I remember using the internet on the school computer in, say, 1992 or 1993, with Windows 3.1 -- back then only school had the internet. It was more fu n, more productive, and better designed. Everything now is crappier. The actual machine doesn't "feel" any faster doing mundane tasks. The Windows 3.1 File Manager was superior to whatever half-baked junk is on here now. The only difference between now and then, is the ability to view videos and other high speed graphic related things. Otherwise, just taking care of NORMAL stuff like email, editing a picture, email, wasn't that much worse than now. Even Microsoft Word 6.0 was better than any word processor nowadays. Windows 10 sucks, and so does most of the internet now. Search engines were better back then, because you actually used them. Now, what's the point?

I predict that people will stop using the internet for social media in another 10 years. Look at Meta, that thing just crashed, and Mark Zuckerberg just lost billions. More people will come to realize it's just a cesspool for attention seeking narcissists. More people will start buying books. Something that lasts forever and only required sunlight to read. No "Kindle", no electricity. Just eyeballs in your head. I think it will actually be more pleasurable and less stressful for people to gradually just opt out from computers in general. It was like a fad that had it's time. Physical activity will make a comeback, being a hunched over muscle-less noodle who spends all day on a computer, will automatically weed out the non-breeders who can't find a wife or girlfriend, and the people who have kids will instruct their children in more productive and rewarding activities than killing time with a "device." In simple terms, people will return to what used to be known as civilized humanity.

I got "blocked" from uploading further to their website. I tried to upload stuff and it either logged me off, or failed to upload every time. Simple as that. They must have flipped some switch to prevent me from doing anymore uploads. So I deleted it. Sorry! I never read their terms of service thingy, so yeah, my bad!

STEP NUMBER 1: Download KernelEx from here: http://kernelex.sourceforge.net/ Then download MPlayer from here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/mplayer-ww/files/MPlayer_Release/Revision%2035250/ STEP NUMBER 2 Install KernelEx then unzip MPlayer to a folder. Then right click on Mplayer program file and selection "properties". Under KernelEx tab, select "use specific compatibility mode" and choose WinXP from the selection list. That's it.

Disktective v4.0 - Disk-space recovery utility for Win95-XP Freeware Really good folder program that has bars, pie charts, and shows you a picture of what folders use the most space. Scroll down the page until you see "Disktec.zip" https://www.sac.sk/files.php?d=15&l=D Any updates?

FoldersReport v1.21 https://www.nirsoft.net/utils/folrep.html The FoldersReport utility scans a drive or a base folder that you select, and displays essential information for each folder that it finds: The size of all files inside the folder, The real files size on the disk, number of files inside the folder, number of hidden files, number of compressed files, and number of subfolders. You can use this utility to easily find out which folders use the most space in your drive. You can scan the folders of your local drives, CD-ROM drives, and network resources on a remote computer. ^ I tried it on my computer, works good.
