Day 3, Night

NEWS BULLETIN:

After being voted guilty for the murders of Quick Shot and Ricky S., the public today demanded the immediate extermination of Mafia suspect iCeFuSiOn. After being subjected a firing squad, the public's relief was short-lived as an explosion went off just two streets away. Thankfully, nobody was hurt.

The Mafia have released a video announcement within the last few minutes claiming responsibility for the explosion. They also stated that iCeFuSiOn was NOT a member of the Mafia. CCTV footage of the site of the explosion an hour earlier shows that there were indeed FOUR Mafia members driving the Mafia's orange wagon.

It would seem that iCeFuSiOn was innocent, however at least in killing him the townpeople have demonstrated that they will do everything in their power to bring an end to the violence created by the Mafia.

"Next time we won't kill anyone unless we have concrete evidence they are Mafia", the Sheriff said.

In other news, Ricky S.'s cat has been taken in by everybody's favourite barbar Morrie.

Day 4, Morning

NEWS BULLETIN:

It would appear that the Sheriff's latest measures to stop the Mafia have backfired. The Mafia have struck out in retaliation and now have their sights on hunting him down.

This became evident when townsperson Sesse was found buried six feet underground after being tortured for information last night. Scratch marks, blood, and a cat were found inside of the exhumed coffin. Unfortunately, neither the cat nor Sesse made it out alive.

Sesse's fingerprints were also discovered to be on the handle of the spade that was used to dig the grave. It appears that Sesse literally dug his own hole and lied in it.

The Sheriff, who is currently disguising himself with a wig and 'tache, said he will not stop the fight until the Mafia have been caught and brought to justice.

Voting begins now, and ends at 4am CST, 10am UTC, 11am BST. Get it right this time people! :p

Cats eh...? is this one of your bloody tricks again? The one time you gave us a clue we ignored it and the other ones which we didn't, were wrong!! Burnt alive, ice, pretty opposite don't you think? but maybe you were tricking us so we'd make that combo and get it wrong!

    • what other retro software do yall use

      By goretsky · Posted

      Hello, Christian Maas' XVI32 is a nice (and very small) hex editor. Speaking of hex editors, many years ago a colleague and I who both worked at Tribal Voice managed to edit a copy of the company's PowWow instant messaging client to make it behave better now that all of its lookup servers and other server-side tech was gone.  The program didn't support NAT (RFC-3022 was introduced in January 2001, the same time Tribal Voice was shuttered), but it still worked okay if you manually set up port-forwarding on your router.  The server at http://powwow.jazy.net/ hosts a copy (usual warnings about downloading and running untrusted code from random internet servers apply). I occasionally use some tools like Funduc Software's Search and Replace and Application Mover when I need to make mass-edits to text-based files or move programs with a hard-coded installation directories, respectively.  When I need to figure out the exact LCD panel inside of a laptop, EnTech Taiwan's Monitor Asset Manager is my go-to tool for that purpose. JD Design's website (now hosted on github.io) has a number of interesting freeware and shareware utilities.  I used to use their TouchPro utility to set the file timestamps on software I was mastering to match its version number (e.g., version 3.00 of a program had all of its files dates set to 3:00AM, and so forth). Karenware has a number of interesting freeware utilities, too. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky

      I still use HexChat! Not really as ancient as the 1994 AutoCAD above my post, but I have never found anything better to replace it. Yes we still operate an IRC server https://www.neowin.net/irc/ 😛

      At work we still have a couple of people that use a version of AutoCAD LT purchased in 1994. This predates Windows 95 and works fine on versions of Windows up to XP. Its long since run in an locked down isolated XP VM, accessible via RDP. I did install LibreCAD for them, however they said it was just too different to get to grips with. In all fairness one of them is now 75 and the other is almost 60.
