It is an interesting read for me sometimes since I do not have any experience in larger companies. The mismanagement part really makes me realize how lucky I am to not have said experience. ]]> + + + WIN98SE + Thu, 25 Nov 2021 09:09:53 +0100 + win98se + Feed + https://win98se.com/rss + If you look for "aesthetic" pictures on Tumblr, and you filter out all the stuff with a synthwave pink and blue palette or the photoshopped stuff, you'll probably find a lot of Windows 9x screenshots. I found this aptly named blog, full of screenshots, and it's a pretty nice source of inspiration for when I want to do things on my Windows 98 SE virtual machine.

With those screenshots, I had found some software a few months ago called PlantStudio and it is impressive. There are some screenshots I haven't really exploited yet, mostly of Japanese software. I really am fond of exploring the Japanese web, be it through some of their attempts at creating internet standards like HINA or through the software they created.

Speaking of, It makes me a little sad that Japanese websites are slowly switching to the more "modern" designs we see now, like flat design, and are not keeping the condensed, efficient looks they had before. I used to browse Pixiv regularly, and while its new design is a bit more useful to English speakers, I had gotten used to knowing from memory what each link was in Japanese in the old design and the new one made me lose a ton of features. I wish we could just all go back in time and destroy JavaScript to prevent all of this.
