Hi! I just launched a new three month DOS jam! Don't have enough free time to contribute to a standard game jam? This one's E X T E N D E D. Please feel free to join in, even (especially!) if you have no experience! It's a very casual vibe, and there are even a few assets to help start you off! https://itch.io/jam/ms-tres #retrogaming #retrocomputing #gamedev #dosgaming #msdos

Just installing MSDOS 6.2 as you do... Been a while since I last had those disks out! And you forget the tactile satisfaction of ejecting one disk and inserting the next. Those clunks and sounds... Ah yes, DLBSPACE and MEMMAKER - those key innovations to stretch your PC further! Also been a while since I saw a CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT Wish I still had my set of Win 3.11 floppies - never mind, this will do! #RetroComputing #MSDOS

Microsoft on taas kaivellut historiallisia arkistojaan Nyt on julkaistu MS-DOSin "edeltäjän" varhaisia versioita, jotka löydettiin ainoastaan tulosteina ja digitoitiin jälkipolvien iloksi. 86-DOS:n ja PC-DOSin ensimmäiset versiot löytyvät nyt avoimena lähdekoodina GitHubista. https://dawn.fi/uutiset/2026/05/04/microsoft-86-dos-avoin-lahdekoodi #86dos #pcdos #microsoft #avoinlahdekoodi #oss #msdos #uutiset #teknologia #tekniikka

@pertho@mastodon.bsd.cafe @rootwyrm@weird.autos yes and if the sole reason for @OS1337@infosec.space was to use dd & ddrescue on some industrial thingy that runs #MSDOS then yeah that would be fine. I just think that yeeting i486 is wrong cuz #i486 requires way less workarounds than #i386 to work wellCuz yes there are still new machines deployed with i486-only #CPU|s / #SoC|s in #industrial setups!

You can emulate #Dragonfell on modern systems via DOSBox and a free #PsionSeries3 emulator for #msdos. There's an emulation package that provides step-by-step instructions for obtaining and installing the two emulators, as well as a version of the game packaged specifically for those emulators. Future plans might possibly include an #msdos #cga version of the game, but in the mean time, this is a good solution. Get it from https://cyningstan.itch.io/dragonfell-psion-3 #Psion
