it's hard to overstate how whipped modern gamers are compared to nerds in the 2000s. there was a significant minority of people who hated Steam *for being DRM*. everyone knew how to pirate. there was an arms race between games trying to detect if you had DaemonTools installed and ways to hide it

I'm an old geezer, been using Linux since '97 or so. I had used daemontools (from DJB) never knew there was something with the same name on windows. So the PSA works both ways! Thanks!

The weird thing is that most Linux users will never need or interact with daemontools. Unless they want to do something like replace their init system, a la troubleshooters.com/linux/diy/su... . Worth looking at, but not necessary in the general case.

One of the foul pieces of software I've ever had to deal with and I've survived through Limewire, DaemonTools, iTunes, RealPlayer, mDickie games, printer software, and having to backinstall Windows 98 on a machine to scrub Windows Vista off of it because it prevented downgrading straight to XP.

Hackers Use NeedyMantis To Maintain Long-Term Access In Breached Networks
Microsoft says the NeedyMantis malware family has been used in targeted intrusions to maintain long-term access inside already breached networks across sectors such as telecommunications, universities, and government contractors. The activity overlaps with the DAEMON Tools supply chain incident and is linked to Storm-3069, with indicators including the C2 domain corp.tripswithengine[.]com...

In this case, since it was pretty early days in the evolution of the concept on Linux (2008-ish), I was mostly looking at it as a possible avenue to replace softlimit from Dan Bernstein's daemontools and chroot.
The Perl built a root filesystem, and the C++ supervised running stuff from it.

Next troubleshooting step: check if W98 even sees the audio tracks on the CD.
Might need to install an audio software for that.
If yes, it's a driver/config thing for sure, if not it must be an issue with DaemonTools.

Hell yeah! Nowadays less need for daemontools especially now that eroge are a lot more accessible now
When I think of ero VNs the first few I played included Wanko to Kurasou, Katawa Shoujo, and Saya No Uta (I don’t really see this as an eroge personally but it’s technically one).

how those services were run was mostly up to the preferences of the system administrator installing them. what was important was that they eventually ran.
back then, i shipped daemontools run scripts and NT service wrappers. in modern day, i'd probably ship a bucket of yaml describing All The Pods.

Right. None of these are fantastic. #Synology has all Seagate Iron Wolf Pros, 2x storage pools, 1 volume per pool, brtfs. Network backplane is Cat6, 1Gbps via TL-SG2428P (no QoS set right now), with 4x LAG to the #nas. Mac connected using #daemontools as the iSCSI initiator. Formatted APFS.
