I’ve never played around with this type of emulation so I don’t know if it works in practice, but it seems doable?
The software included in eXoWin9x is already set up using DOSBox X, with a handful of games relying on 86Box. Virtual Hard Drives (VHDs) are used along with parent images of the Win9X OS. This allows the pack to run games in Windows without each game needing its own copy. Information DOSBox is a DOS-emulator that uses the SDL-library which makes DOSBox very easy to port to different platforms. DOSBox has already been ported to many different platforms, such as Windows, BeOS, Linux, MacOS X... Downloads The latest stable version of 86Box is v5.2, which was released on October 26, 2025, and is available from our GitHub repository. We also offer experimental builds, which are built from the latest source code, but may not be as stable and/or performant as release builds. Minimum system requirements and recommendations Intel Core 2 or AMD Athlon 64 processor or newer At least 4 GB of RAM or higher Windows version: Windows 7 Service Pack 1 or later macOS version: macOS 10.13 High Sierra or newer Linux version: Ubuntu 16.04, Debian 9.0 or other distributions from 2016 onwards

Pierre Vallières agrees. The nationalists currently in power are explicitly right-wing and have nothing in common ideologically with the “revolutionaries” of the 60s. Quebec sovereignty has been led by the right for at least 30 years.
From semiotext(e)’s “canadas,” an interview with Pierre Vallières in the early 90s. North and South America, when it comes right down to it, have to admit that their societies are based on genocide. That's a very hard thing for the majority of "pure laine" anglophones and francophones to accept. I don't think there has ever been a comparable conquest in the world. The Europeans colonized the African people but they never intended to eliminate them completely, whereas in America they aimed for the complete elimination of the indigenous peoples, who numbered several million. They were not as successful in Latin America, but on the other hand, the indigenous populations there have no democratic rights. In Bolivia and Guatemala they make up the majority of the population, and yet have no representation. They are worse off than Blacks in the United States, who aren't very well off at all. That reality must be recognized, first off. But how do you atone for geno-cide? It's almost impossible. At the very least, I think that priority must be given to Native demands so that the situation doesn't simply deteriorate. The only future right now for most Native people is suicide, destitution, and alcoholism. I've never understood why in Québec, for example, it has never occurred to Hydro Québec to bring the Inuit and the Cree in on their hydroelectric development plans. If they had at least thought of it, or made some steps in that direction... You can't just say we're going to expropriate you, give you a couple of million bucks and then you're on your own. It's unacceptable, it means the end for them.

That’s for one week, during the worst flu season since 2009-2010. Also, I can’t say I feel very confident in anything coming from the CDC these days

www.cbc.ca/news/health/...
The CDC declined to let an Associated Press reporter speak to an agency flu expert about recent trends. The Trump administration ordered a temporary "pause" on health agency communications and has continued to refuse interview requests that were routinely granted in the past.

Very intrigued by what AI can do about too many trucks on the road, or the freeze thaw cycle. I’m sure it’ll be able to make up something that pleases them though
Loyola candidate Alexandre Teodoresco, who works in the domain of Al, said the city would hold a hackathon, bringing together experts from the startup field, seasoned tech entrepreneurs and City of Montreal information technology experts to help create new tools. "We are a city of knowledge and research, and of Al, so how come at city hall, we're the worst in class?" Teodoresco said. "This has to stop."

Looks like different guidelines. I wonder what they consider moderately immunocompromised? One could argue that’s anyone who’s had one or multiple covid infections. I wonder if they ask for proof of diagnosis or just take your word www.yukon-news.com/news/2-doses...
Those who are eligible for the twice-per-year vaccination encompass multiple categories: people aged 6 months to 64 years who are moderately to severely immunocompromised due to an underlying condition or treatment; residents in long-term care homes and other congregate living settings for seniors; and adults 65 years or older.

Doctors, when faced with any other type of expertise, “doesn’t count, we’re better”
So many absurd claims article but the idea that we don’t know how much reducing virus in the air reduces infection gotta be the most outlandish. How are you gonna be infected if there’s no virus left in the air?
Yet, of the 112 studies assessing many of these pathogen-killing technologies, only 14 tested for harmful byproducts. This is a stark contrast to pharmaceutical research, where safety testing is standard practice.

Piste cyclable fermée pour un conteneur de déchet et du stationnement? Il y a si peu de voie cyclable sécuritaire au centre ville, pourquoi entraver inutilement les vélos quand il y a trois voies automobiles disponibles?

Durant la période de question de cette séance, quelqu’un demande pourquoi la ville va de l’avant avec ce projet “que la majorité des résidents opposent.” Pourtant, les questions des autres participants laissaient généralement sous-entendre un support du projet.

Weird thing to say when his org explicitly considers criticism of Israel to be antisemitic. Also a blatantly unreliable source based on the sheer amount of lies on their website.

A Jewish historian’s perspective WHY IS ISRAEL FIGHTING THIS WAR AGAINST HAMAS? On October 7th the internationally proscribed Islamist terror organisation Hamas perpetrated the most horrific attack on Jews since the Holocaust, massacring over 1,200 people in southern Israel in the most barbaric manner imaginable: torturing families, mutilating children and adults, raping hundreds of Jewish girls and women of all ages, setting fire to people and desecrating bodies after the orgy of killing

thank you for using sources that can’t even get basic history right, makes it clear you don’t know shit
The aim of Zionism was to reconstitute a Jewish state in the territory the Jews knew as “Eretz Yisrael” (The Land of Israel), and which had been renamed “Palestine” following the suppression of the final Jewish rebellion by the Roman Emperor Hadrian in the year 135 CE.

“ideology is bad but thankfully i, an enlightened israeli, have objectively determined that it’s good when my people kill babies and grandmothers because postcolonialism is stupid”
I believe university education in both the humanities and the sciences can make students better citizens through developing habits of mind. When ideology seeps into education, it has the opposite effect. I would rather my fellow citizens understand why it is wrong to kidnap babies and grandmothers than to be fluent in the subtleties of postcolonialism.

I must say it’s kind of funny for a scholar of Bertrand Russell to tack his name on a complaint that the university is unfair towards the Israeli occupation
He expressed sympathy and support for the Palestinian people and was critical of Israel's actions. He wrote in 1960 that, "I think it was a mistake to establish a Jewish State in Palestine, but it would be a still greater mistake to try to get rid of it now that it exists."(168) In his final written document, read aloud in Cairo three days after his death on 31 January 1970, he condemned Israel as an aggressive imperialist power, which "wishes to consolidate with the least difficulty what it has already taken by violence. Every new conquest becomes the violence. Every new conquest becomes the new basis of the proposed negotiation from strength, which ignores the injustice of the previous aggression." In regards to the Palestinian people and refugees, he wrote that, "No people anywhere in the world would accept being expelled en masse from their own country; how can anyone require the people of Palestine to accept a punishment which nobody else would tolerate? A permanent just settlement of the refugees in their homeland is an essential ingredient of any genuine settlement in the Middle East."[169]

Honteux de citer Senghor pour ensuite renier la solidarité internationale. Les munitions Israélienne sont fabriquées en banlieue de Montréal, c’est nous qui exportons le conflit à l’étranger.

Source pour l’image: www.bbc.com/afrique/mond...
En 1977, Léopold Sédar Senghor devient le premier président subsaharien à recevoir Yasser Arafat, en sa qualité de chef révolutionnaire de l'Organisation de Libération de la Palestine. "Senghor a renouvelé son soutien aux Palestiniens en prenant une décision historique qui a fait du Sénégal, un des premiers pays au monde à reconnaître l'Etat de Palestine en 1989 sous Abdou Diouf", indique Sawat Ibraghit. Le premier président du Sénégal a ainsi posé les jalons de l'érection de l'une des premières ambassades de la Palestine en Afrique, à Dakar. Celui qui est considéré comme le père de la nation sénégalaise rompra en 1973 tout lien avec Israël en réaction à la guerre de 1973. Les deux pays renoueront en 1992.

I don’t think the US needs more IDF prison guards who care so little about innocent lives.

Transcript from this interview www.npr.org/2025/03/26/1...
Deepa Fernandes: There's little talk of the fact that this attack killed 53 people, as we mentioned, including women and children. The civilian toll of these American strikes. Are we burying the lead here? Jeffrey Goldberg: Well, those, unfortunately, those aren't confirmed numbers. Those are provided by the Houthis and the Houthi health ministry, I guess. So we don't know that for sure. Yeah, I mean, obviously we're, well, I don't know if we're burying the lead, because obviously huge breaches in national security and safety of information, that's a very, very important story, obviously. And one of the reasons, you know, it's a very important story is that the Republicans themselves consider that to be an important story, when it's Hillary Clinton doing the deed, right? So that's obviously hugely important. But yeah, I think that covering what's going on in Yemen, the Arab and Iran backed terrorist organization, the Houthis, that are that are firing missiles at Israel and disrupting global shipping and occupy half of Yemen, and all kinds of other things in the US, you know, and the Trump administration criticizing the Biden's response and Europe wants Trump to do more. I mean, yeah, there's, there's a huge story in Yemen. But Yemen is, as you know, is one of the more inaccessible places for Western journalists. So maybe this becomes like a substitute for a discussion of Yemen. I don't know.
