Is Windows XP the best OS ever made

Due to my comfortable XP compy being practically dead, I decided to by a laptop (first ever). Since I buy it for money, of course I am looking for a reasonable price/power ratio. But. Since quite a portion of my stationary computer usage is dedicated to retro gaming, I was afraid most modern os (Win...

First unofficial OG/Blackdiam/CWF meeting report

Yup. It has happened. In Helsinki. In a post-webforums analogue world and with limited members participation (<10), but it has really happened. I am not entitled to share details and/or photos, but the important message is: it is doable. There were easygoing talks about gaming culture, politics (too...

Merry 2021 Christmas to all fellow Curlyers

I wish everybody, no matter what their religion, political alignment, health, financial status, platform owned is to keep carving their way through the valley of gaming so we can safely meet one day on the great plain of eternal retro.

The highest tree merged with the blackest stone
Always turn out to be The One

Lucky is the man to be forgotten by
People who always want to keep the river running

Bridges and altars
Surfaces and waves

How is everyone. I am having fearsome fun contacting outside folk through CWF, but - on the other hand - we all have at least 40 years of potential mutual contact coming.

Re: The Philosophy Thread

It's what I call clash of axioms. The problem is, nobody knows where do axioms come from, how to eat them philosophically, psychologically and socially. In ancient ages there were clear hierarchies, for example there was a ruler who would decide to behead a peasant, because of this and that. With ti...
