[email protected] - A silly milestone we passed sometime this year: The Internet Archive now emulates (to various degrees, of course), over 250,000 pieces of software, hardware, and electronics, thanks to the effort of a dozen emulation projects and all of them running in the browser. Live again, ancient software!

Headline is wrong. Internet archive has been emulating software for a long time now.
Maybe they just got to 250k titles, but them emulating is not new.
yea. it already had more than 2000 MS DOS games back in 2015
I apologize I will change the title.
It has been a day since you said that.
Lol sorry I been busy
And you still haven’t. Classic.
It doesn’t take even a minute to edit a piece of string.
Fuck off , what is your problem? You don’t have anything to do today?
no, not really.
This many replies indicates you have very little to do today yourself.
