Emulation Sucks

… because it’s so realistic you still have to put up with the same problems you had 30 years ago…

Ah yes, that’ll be the problem, something ate the system.ini file, because of course it did, didn’t it

There’s some 30 year old muscle memory going on here, if I don’t think I can drive this perfectly.

What the fuck, this actually works?! This never works normally… I was all set for spending hours of my life figuring out why networking didn’t. I think I’ll celebrate by going to bed!

Ahh there we go, I knew it was too good to be true.

Yes, very zen…

Never mind, this is what I came here to do – compile DOS programs without using a cross compiler. Using a nice IDE in Windows might be slightly cheating maybe? But the alternative was manually running compilers and linkers by hand, in a non-POSIX environment.

There’s doing this the traditional hard way, and making life impossible.
