Free Towns OS: an open source recreation of FM Towns OS

A few weeks ago I linked to a story by Misty De Meo, in which they explored what happened to the various eccentric Japanese PC platforms. One of the platforms mentioned was FM Towns, made by Fujitsu, which came with its own graphical operating system from the era of Windows 3.x. I had never heard of this one before, but it looks incredibly interesting, with some unique UI ideas I’d love to explore, if only I could read Japanese. Since learning Japanese is a serious life-long commitment, I can safely say that’s not going to happen. It seems I’m not the only one interested in FM Towns, as a new project called Free Towns OS (or Tsugaru OS in Japanese) aims to provide an open source replacement for the Free Towns operating system. The goal of this project is to write a copyright-free FM Towns OS to run free games and the re-released games, or why not a brand-new game for FM Towns. without concerns of violating copyrights of the files included in the original Towns OS. Let’s see how far we can go! But, so far so good. Now Tsugaru OS is capable of running the three probably the most popular free games, Panic Ball 2, VSGP, and Sky Duel. All playable without single file from the original Towns OS. ↫ Free Towns OS GitHub page That’s a pretty good milestone already. The project aims to eventually also be able to run on real hardware instead of just emulators, but further than that, it’s difficult for me to extract more information from the descriptions since not every paragraph has been translated to English just yet. Finding English information on FM Towns OS in general is hard, so I’m also not entirely sure just how much the project has already been able to recreate. I definitely hope this effort attracts more interest, hopefully also from outside of Japan so we can get a translated version people outside of Japan can use.

Equipo de Investigación: Tráfico de estrellas 15-10-2021

3 de cada 4 consumidores miran las reseñas antes de tomar una decisión, pero muchas de esas valoraciones son falsas. Equipo de Investigación lo demuestra este viernes en el reportaje ‘Tráfico de estrellas’. El programa presentado por Gloria Serra descubre que hay un mercado de compraventa de reseñas falsas. Usuarios que reciben productos gratuitos, a través de Amazon, y que los valoran con 5 estrellas sin ni siquiera haberlos probado. A cambio ganan cuantiosas cantidades de dinero. Pero no es la única App en la que Equipo revela fraude. Ocho millones de restaurantes participan en la plataforma de turismo más grande del mundo, los reporteros comprueban lo fácil que es calificar un menú en TripAdvisor sin degustarlo. Los hosteleros denuncian prácticas abusivas que presuntamente les propone la plataforma si quieren alcanzar la máxima calificación. Lo llaman la tiranía de las estrellas.
