there have been source code leaks consisting ofwinamp GTA5minecraft Salesforce CRMTeam Fortress 2 and CS:GOFrostbite engine and FIFA 21Ubisoft gamesPokemon gamesWindows XP (SP1), Windows Server 2003, MS-DOS, and Windows CEso why not use AI tools like Claude and rewrite them into some other languages and make them open source
>>108515629csgo has already been freed as kisak-strike
>>108515734You have woman hand writing. Hungry man thinks of bread.
>>108515629It turns out that corpo-software is umaintainable shit.That is why they have to rewrite their stuff again and again. You simply do not have any pressure to make your software easy to maintain, when you are in an corporate environment.Every time someone got hyped by a Source Code leak, it turned out that the code is garbage you can barely run.
>>108516050>the code is garbage you can barely run.WindowsXP almost has 1:1 feature parity with a modern Linux desktop environment, yet I can run XP on 64MB ram, and even boots with 32really makes you think about whose code is garbage and whose a bloated piece of DEI trash.
>>108516127can modern windows do that ?
>>108516127Kill yourself, shillFact is that the source code is avaiable, and nobody touches. Not because they don't want to, but because it is unmaintainable low-quality spaghetti code.If you think different, then go ahead and use it....
>>108516170>Not because they don't want to, but because it is unmaintainable low-quality spaghetti codehence OP said "why not use AI tools like Claude". it looks unmaintainable and spaghetti to you because skill issue. but not to Claude.some Windows XP (SP1) code was leaked, which could boot with 32MB of ram on relatively modern hardware. I dont see how this is "unmaintanable can barely run" but quite the opposite, it's quite fast. >>108516158>can modern windows do that ?for example the latest Ubuntu official requirements are 6GB of ram, that's even more concerning. how many things can modern Gnome do better than XP? I am saying a 25 year old OS seems much more lightweight than current foss DE's floating around and your comeback is>but but but what about Windows11?weird way of taking the L my dude
>>108516238tiny linux still exist, gnome is a pile of trash, explorer crashed on start way to often. winXP was the last good windows and even then it was a buggy mess
>>108515629The only way to make AI slop even remotely correct is to have an extensive test suite. It would be more effort making the test suite than it would be to rewrite the whole thing manually yourself.
>>108515705it hasnt been updated in years and theres too many forks to find a good onealso no windows support
>>108515629> winamp You would have to write it from scratch, but it's a good reference.> gaymes> CRMDigital trash, nobody really cares, except for maybe the Frostbite engine, 'cause it's like CryEngine but not retarded and runs very well on 2013 budget hardware. Marvel of software engineering, so at least some people would care.I missed that one btw, anyone got a link?> Windows It's outdated and build tools are painful to use. But you take the core to write your own OS on top, it might be worth something.GNU/Windows when?> why not use AI tools like Claude and rewrite them It's not magick. You may waste like $1000 and get absolutely nothing out of it. Or you may one-shot it, it's like gambling, honestly.
>>108516238>I dont see how this is "unmaintanable can barely run" but quite the opposite, it's quite fastI'm not sure about that one. First of all, if it's 32bit, it is smaller, sure. But it runs different. Afaik it ignores registers that exist in modern CPUs. So software compiled for modern machines runs faster than that you would recompile to run on the same machine but with 32bit. There are situations when it's the opposite, but still, it is definitely not a one-sided situation, that is for sure.
>>108516269Then go ahead and start maintaining and updating it. It's open source, after all.
>>108516319im a retarded webshitter i dont know c/c++ i dont even know javascript, just html and css
>>108516248> winXP was the last good windows Not true. It was not as stable as win7 became at one point. But then they ruined win7, but I don't know when exactly. Later similar thing happened to win10. At some point it was literally the most stable operating system ever created. Nothing leaks, nothing breaks, no blue screens, you could run it for years. But they ruined it with updates, as usual.winXP finished in a fairly stable state, but not best ever.win7 through win11 ended up as garbage, but 7 and 10 were top tier once in the past.
>>108516331>but 7 and 10 were top tier once in the past.mdr has we say in France
>>108516330I'm mixed between "What's preventing you from learning it?" and "Also as a fellow webshitter I lowkey feel you."
>>108516355i've tried learning c++ in the past it was pretty hard but that was before i was a webshitter; i could probably learn c right now and become good at it
>>108516376I actually started with C/C++ before moving to webshit.I mean desu nowadays you can probably let Claude write the code for you. Go clone the repo and mess around with Cursor or something. It might surprise you.
>>108516238>6gb ram>for gnome>on a sœstymd distroyeah no shit its bloated. look at who runs those repos lol, its all former windows expats and glowniggers making changes to benefit their startups.sœstymd i can conjure up a reason why someone would still not have moved on from it yet, but who the fuck even uses gnome anymore? they've pissed on the heads of literally every kind of user they've ever had.i genuinely don't understand your comparison or why you're making it, assuming you're speaking in good faith.
>>108516393i might try it i've never used in code
How does code even get "leaked"? Does an employee get pissed, get fired/quit and post it somewhere? Is it sitting on a server that's publicly available for some reason?
>>108516331Windows NT 4 was extremely stable. Windows 2000 was also very stable. They weren't home/ gaming systems though.
>>108516127WindowsXP doesn't have drivers for a lot of modern hardware.
