No, it would take a miracle and even then who would care.

3 Name: Nameless : 2025/10/19 21:15

>>2
I would. If you like world2ch, you would definitely like world4ch, as it will have 5000% more users.

4 Name: Nameless : 2025/10/20 00:36

world4ch never had a great surplus of users, and it wouldn't now.

5 Name: Nameless : 2025/10/20 22:44

>>4
Well at least it would have more users than this site. If they open about 5 boards and make a new box on the home page for these boards, I'm sure they would be active. Even 1000 posts per hour per board would be good.

6 Name: Nameless : 2025/10/21 08:57

No, it wouldn't. It would have less than the oekaki boards would because nobody would care to learn about textboards. If you care then do something about it, prove me wrong if you think you can.

7 Name: Nameless : 2025/10/24 04:32

probably not, hiroshimoot dosent seems to really care about 4chan at all...

8 Name: Nameless : 2025/10/29 10:56

world4ch was nothing but spam by the end and i assume the maintenance burden was just too much

【2:8】 Hello!

1 Name: Raion : 2025/10/21 16:50

Came here from Spaz's little corner. How's it going guys?

I am that crazy SGI/IRIX nerd you maybe have heard about.

This brings me back to 2005.

Just wanted to introduce myself and say that I'm aware of this place; I will be happy to post / offer any assistance in UNIX space if I understand it.

2 Name: Nameless : 2025/10/22 03:04

hey there, welcome. if you were looking for real time discussions like /g/ you will be dissapointed, but it's nice checking up on your thread every day to see how it's doing.

3 Name: Raion : 2025/10/22 06:00

I don't use /g/ anymore. It's a cult.

4 Name: Nameless : 2025/10/22 07:48

In terms of technology and engineering, we vastly outclass even NASA. We have already made 3 or 4 unfinished projects.

5 Name: Nameless : 2025/10/23 07:39

So in UNIX, how do I make a directory? I've been a user for 20 years and haven't yet to find out.

6 Name: Nameless : 2025/10/23 07:57

Better yet, how do you change a directory?

7 Name: Nameless : 2025/10/25 15:40

Ooh. I always wanted to get into SGI systems.
I missed the boat due to being too young to buy stuff when they were cheap and easy to get as everyone was liquidating them, and I don't have room for much here these days anyway lol.

8 Name: Raion : 2025/10/27 15:12

【4:9】 GTK must die

■ ▲ ▼

1 Name: Nameless : 2025/10/09 12:28

seriously, I am so done with the shit from the GTK organization. They are a bunch of lazy self absorbed nazis who think that a paycheck from Red Hat lets them shit all over the Linux desktop with their broken shitty software. And also be antagonistic to anyone trying to fix it! enough is enough, I switched to full Qt and you should too. It is literally just like windows and you can theme it easily unlike GTK which wants to be like an iPad for some reason.

2 Name: Nameless : 2025/10/09 14:18

It's just switching desktop environments right? Why didn't you do it sooner?

3 Name: Nameless : 2025/10/10 03:27

>It's just switching desktop environments right
No. GTK permeates tons of Linux programs. You have to conciously choose /not/ to use it by picking software that doesn't include it. Fortunately, plenty of formerly-GTK software are switching like EasyEffects.

4 Name: Nameless : 2025/10/10 03:35

On Windows you could just stick with an older version of the offending software, but (in my very limited experience) in UNIX everything seems to have 9000 dependencies and the whole system depends on everything being kept up to date for them to be compatible with one another

5 Name: Nameless : 2025/10/10 12:17

Usually software made specifically for BSD and Solaris are a lot less bloated. I can only think of one or two programs I have ever tried from GTK.

6 Name: Nameless : 2025/10/10 14:39

I'm still fucking mad about how bad GTK3 and GNOME 3 have been for the Linux desktop experience. Everyone involved should be bound and whipped, and not in a hot way. I'm still mad Xfce moved to GTK3, too.

I'm now on KDE, which is nice. I hated KDE before, but it's pretty nice now.

7 Name: Nameless : 2025/10/11 03:15

>>6
KDE is cool if you like that kinda thing. If you like old Windows try LXQT. You can make the UI look like the Windows Classic theme really easily. Get QMMP and you've got yourself WinAmp too.

8 Name: Raion : 2025/10/21 16:54

All I can tell you is from building GTK2 for IRIX, the code for it is not terrible. But the problem is the amount of dependencies it pulls in. Cairo, glib2, pixman, pango etc. three and four are even worse.

And very applicable to sgis in particular that don't have direct hardware access to anti-aliasing and no CPU SIMD, text rendering through GTK is slow. Very slow. Performance wise it's not great.

In terms of actually building gtk2, the code was relatively simple to patch:

https://codeberg.org/IRIXNet-Development/Nekoware-Package-Collections/raw/branch/main/patches/neko_gtk2.20.patch

Virtually everything applied is for gdk-pixbuf there.

GNOME has got to be some sort of sabotage operation.

【5:7】 PC98 horror story

■ ▲ ▼

1 Name: TheReaper887126 : 2025/09/26 05:08

Kirito was exploring a new area of the SAO virtual world when he stumbled upon a strange object that looked like a computer. It had a label that read "PC-9821" and it was covered in dust and grime, as if it had been forgotten for years. Kirito, being the curious and adventurous character that he is, decided to take a closer look.

Kirito: "What is this? I've never seen anything like it before."
Asuna: "It looks like a PC-9821, a Japanese computer from the 1980s. But why are you so interested in it?"
Kirito: "I just found it out here, in the wild. I thought it might be something useful or valuable."
Asuna: "Useful? Valuable? I don't think so. It's just an old computer."
Kirito: "But it's a PC-9821. I've heard they're rare and collectible."
Asuna: "Rare, maybe. But collectible? I doubt it. They're just obsolete technology."
Kirito: "I'm going to find out for myself. I'll just have to see if it's got any hidden treasures."

Kirito began to examine the PC-9821, opening up the case and looking at the components. He was surprised to find that the computer was in working order, albeit a bit slow by today's standards. As he was tinkering with the computer, he noticed something unusual about one of the expansion ports.

Kirito: "This port is different from the others. It's wider than the rest."
Asuna: "What are you doing, Kirito? What are you looking for?"
Kirito: "Nothing, just trying to figure out how this thing works."
Asuna: "Kirito, I don't think you should be messing with that. It could be dangerous."

The PC98 series truly is something of rarity and efficiency. I hope to actually possess one soon.

6 Name: Nameless : 2025/10/10 14:41

So, how many megabytes could he store on his PENIS? Is his cock jammed full with gigabytes of eroge, or can he only save a handful of kilobytes to it?

7 Name: Nameless : 2025/10/19 16:38

If it was a PC-9821 then probably not much.

【6:5】 The notorious goto statement

■ ▲ ▼

1 Name: Nameless : 2025/10/11 22:27

Are you man enough to use it?

2 Name: Nameless : 2025/10/12 01:47

A "Shit Happens" bumper sticker. A good go to statement.

3 Name: Nameless : 2025/10/12 02:20

"Takes one to know one."

4 Name: Nameless : 2025/10/13 14:22

I get the problem with goto, but also for exception handling in C? It's really nice.

5 Name: Nameless : 2025/10/18 12:29

I remember fucking around with gwbasic a few months ago for fun and goddamn, I am glad we live in a time where goto is gone. Writing any program of any length is ass due to mucking about with subroutines.

>>4 is right though, as a fast exit from problems, goto is useful there. Probably the one good reason it should be in C.

【8:28】 Creating the World2ch dedicated browser

■ ▲ ▼

1 Name: Nameless : 2025/08/06 04:37

I think the easiest way to create a dedicated browser is to modify an existing 2ch browser.
I believe a good candidate for modification is JaneXeno: https://janexeno.client.jp/

What will have to be done is the UI translated to English, and the program rewritten to accept
the kareha software. I know it's specific on what kind of textboard softwares it can take.

Maybe it could have a feature to paste kaomoji and aa of your selection

23 Name: Nameless : 2025/09/14 05:54

in the spirit of kareha it must be written in perl/Tk

24 Name: Nameless : 2025/10/05 08:37

Can you release the prototype for the browser already?

25 Name: Nameless : 2025/10/05 19:35

Speaking of PSPs, this is the only site i know of that still properly runs on the console and the low res screen gives a very satisfying, sharp look to the site (i’m specifically using a PSP Go). It also supports flash natively so you can watch SWFs in the uploader too.

26 Name: Nameless : 2025/10/06 20:34

>>23
it should be written in any 90s-2000s GUI language.

27 Name: Nameless : 2025/10/06 23:06

Do you want that for any reason other than the year?

【10:5】 The world2ch sitcom

■ ▲ ▼

1 Name: Nameless : 2025/09/29 06:53

Since we're brainstorming ideas like a OS and video game, why not create the w2ch sitcom: "Everybody hates Nameless"

2 Name: Nameless : 2025/10/03 02:03

It'd just be a clone of that Clonepa show but with more penis gags, by which I mean a ascii cat choking on a penis.

3 Name: Nameless : 2025/10/03 02:58

Then perhaps we could write a sitcom centered around a yoshiyona establishment. Or maybe something along the lines of "Shii in the middle"

4 Name: Nameless : 2025/10/03 08:37

"Morrow in the middle" would flow off the tongue better.

5 Name: Nameless : 2025/10/03 08:53

It's not finished, but I like where it's headed.
