I still use Font Renamer to manage my font collection. It works great but hasn’t received an update since 2008. Even the website looks straight out of the Windows XP era.
I was gonna say something like
ping, but there’s still a surprising amount of development going on for such a simple tool (40th anniversary, yay!): https://github.com/iputils/iputils/blob/master/ping/ping.cSo… retro games it is. Currently playing through Broken Sword (1996).
Dang thats…a lot more than I expected for
ping
Picasa from Google is still the best photo library management tool I’ve ever come across.
It was, after google bought it it was only a matter of time…
God I miss Picasa.
I like to post to my WordPress blog from my desktop, so I use Open Live Writer. It’s allow me the option to write without being connected to the Internet. I doubt it still in development.
Oh wow thats cool. I remember Windows Live Writer from way back.
Cool Edit Pro. Such a great audio editing tool.
What does it do better than Audacity?
It remains on my computer since 1998 so I don’t need to learn any new tools.
Mostly kidding…but to be honest, I have just never had any need to try any other tool…it works perfectly for what I need to do (multi-tracking, sequencing, mixing). There’s almost nothing I would want it to do that it doesn’t…so I just stick with it.
Hey, I remember when CoolEdit came… It was awesome.
But for me Audacity does all CoolEdit did.
Gitahead, haven’t found another graphical git solution for Linux
WoW Classic. Hardly maintained and bug rich. Circa 2004(?)
I use windirstat all the time, although it’s slow as shit I like the way it works.
Me too! It just works.
WizTree FTW https://www.diskanalyzer.com/
I use WizTree too and it works great. Scans entire C: root in a few seconds
In a previous life I did the occasional custom home theater remote control program job. Like Harmony, but better (I think). Anyway, my personal remote is a 20 year old remote with programming software from the same era.
The connection to the pc to upload the program is a serial Jack. My small form factor pc doesn’t have room for a permanent serial card, so I use a serial to usb adapter that’s 15 or so years old.
I’ve got the drivers for all of this stuff tucked away in multiple backups, alongside .txt files with notes on how to get it all going again, when, like this week, I add new gear and need to tweak the remote.
I guess Harmony counts for me, since Logitech officially killed the product. The day my Harmony account stops working will be a sad day.
I have been looking for an alternative. Haven’t really found one yet.

Does WinRAR count?
WinRAR is under active development. Also, 7-Zip.
My dad insisted on using CARDFILE.EXE from Windows 3.1 up until he switched to a MacBook in 2010 or so. I still have the data file somewhere.
Gotta admit tho, it was one of the most useful applications that came with a PC back in the late 80s/early 90s. My folks put everything into that thing. They probably had about 350 cards!
I have an old cardfile file I created during University for all my contacts. I’ve lost touch with almost everyone I hung around then but it’s nice to keep it for the memories.
Well, here’s a thing I didn’t know about before that might be useful to you – a tool to extract the dated from the *.crd files.
Thanks!
Elasto Mania (Elma). Awesome dirt bike game.
Nikon Capture NX2 for editing raw nikon files. Can’t beat it. I’ve never really understood light room and importing photos. But the colour control points in NX2 were and are fantastic. There are a number of really good plugins I’ve bought for it too.

I don’t use a text browser but I do use elinks to make sure my website works properly in it.
