Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

DOOM shareware was 2.39 MB, so technically your gender only includes Knee Deep In The Dead if you upload that one. The full game with all three episodes came on four 1.44 MB floppies, so 6-ish MB

6 meg is still less than 10 meg right? I am not doing the maths wrong, am I?

Your maths are good, we may be able to fit a Commander Keen or two in there as well!

You are correct, I'm just saying that if you upload the 2.39 MB one, your gender is incomplete

[–] GabrielBell12fi@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah -- I might have figured that out after I posted the comment -- sorry.

Sometimes I see something, react to it, then my brain catches up with what I just read, and I think "now I feel stupid" :)

And I thought that was a huge storage hog at the time.

Were they compressed? I assume compression algorithms have gotten better so you can compress it down from 6 MB. I know you are compressing your gender but it's lossless compression so it should be fine.
