Old Computer Challenge day 3

Day 3 was a bit different. I had nothing to really do at first. Then I was thinking that firefox is faster than palemoon on my desktop. Would it be faster on the netbook?

Installed firefox and it turned out to be faster than palemoon. Now I think i will use firefox all the time. Even though the esr release is the last release of firefox for windows 7. I can just keep using firefox even when updates stop.

opengl

All games with opengl don't work. Just a black screen. Looked it up and found a reddit post saying that turning on aero works. Tried that and now opengl games work. So this means that out of the box this computer could not run opengl programs. Windows 7 starter does not have aero theme. I started to like the windows 7 classic theme. But now opengl games like quake2 work.

Installed putty so I can ssh into my znc server. Setup backlog on my znc so whenever I reconnect from a different client the history will be shown even if a client is connected.

Then I played a bit of quake1 online and had fun with that.

Overall I an enjoying using the netbook. I might end up using the netbook a bit more even after the challenge is over just because I enjoy using this laptop with windows 7.
