ComradeVlast<p>Looking for some more advanced techies to help me out here. I was browsing the files of old abandonware (as one does) and came across the .zym file format in a game called Gubble 2. Does anyone have any idea what this file format is? Is it something proprietary by the gubble devs? Something that just isn't used anymore? The only thing google brought up regarding .zym was some mods for quake.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/tech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>tech</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/techquestions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>techquestions</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/fileformats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fileformats</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/abandonware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>abandonware</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/windows98" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>windows98</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/techie" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>techie</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/oldtech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>oldtech</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/retrocomputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>retrocomputing</span></a></p>
2something<p><span>Fedi, I have more tech troubles. This time it's my laptop's built-in camera. When I join any sort of video meeting (including, at least, Zoom, Teams, and Matrix video rooms), the software detects my camera and claims my camera is on, but the camera shows only a blank black screen.
