Until you need networking or something that doesn’t look like a Commodore64 running GEOS.

Imagine what a genius like Terry could have done if he had taken his donkey brain meds and worked on a real OS that actually benefited people like FreeBSD or Linux.

The problem is that schizophrenia medication severely impair brain function. In as little as two years 10% loss of brain volume has been measured. Dementia in schizophrenics is disturbingly common, even at a young age, this too is a side effect of antipsychotic medication.
Terry would have been more functional if he took his pills, he'd have been able to hold a job without going off about CIA niggers, but he wouldn't have been a genius.

No he does not. He is one of if not the worst posters on the site. Neck and neck with the TES lunatics.

I'm terribly sorry that you are so offended that there is fun being had. Sounds like you belong in Brodie Robertson's private non-fun-allowed pedo Discord.

Mainly to increase compatibility of KDE and Qt applications on Windows IIRC. Dolphin can run on Windows, but it is not as maintained, at least not back when I tried it

As far as I know this approach all started with KDE 4 (the QT licenses basically made it impractical to do natively for KDE 3 and before, without running KDE applications under Cygwin through a Windows-hosted X server anyways, which I briefly tried in period but it kinda sucked).

That was basically the same point as the KDE 'project' 'transitioned' from being a cohesive desktop environment with the best apps around, into a bunch of mongs rewriting a bunch of new barely-if-not-much-less-than-MVP applications with names stolen from actually useful KDE 3 apps completely anew every few years.

Sad. If this had been viable with KDE 3 in the QT 3 era you would have been able to mix the best spatial/navigational file manager that ever existed right into your Windows XP environment and natively copy files from your local Windows file system to SFTP or WebDAV servers.
