ugh. docker. I stopped working on a project that used docker for 2 years because I got ill and now the images won't build, because they depended on ubuntu and runs apt update in the build

sure would have been nice if I had made this independent of network access back in 2024 but I was busy

the funny part is that the only reason it uses docker is to build dosemu2, because this is actually a DOS program

I'm running Borland Turbo C++ for MS-DOS from 1993 and the reason it doesn't work is because Ubuntu 18.04 is too old

clearly I need to run docker on ubuntu 18.04 inside an even bigger newer container. every decade or so, I slap another emulation around it

someone should invent a containerization format with the explicit goal of being supported forever, by switching out emulation layers

bonus points: forward and backwards. not only can I run this code on ubuntu 38.15, it'll run on windows 3.1 too

maybe I'll just switch to qemu + freedos instead of dosemu2 in a docker container. other than the command line arguments changing, qemu is pretty stable over time

@foone

Just once, I want one of those installers to have ‘I agree’ and ‘I don’t agree’ buttons and for them to both install the program.

@david_chisnall @foone Installer that shows you a picture of a cat and asks "do you agree" . Though, I think in that case, it would be completely appropriate for the installer to quit if you select "I do not agree"
