AGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

compiling C++ software is always fun.
I compiled my own copy of scummvm because I need to hack on it, and it works! it compiled just fine! and then it crashes with no error when I try to open any games!

@foone It's not always the compiler, but the libraries being used needs to be the correct version. It's a bit annoying.

Properly photographing a 3.5" floppy disk for archival is annoyingly complicated. The label has THREE sides!

I've already built an automated system to take a picture of the front of a disk, but really I need to take THREE photos if I want to get the whole thing.

That means either three cameras or I need to rotate the disk 90° and then 180°, which is going to really stress the limits of my mechanical engineering skills.

@foone I have been looking for something like this for 20 years. Would you happen to release the prints as well as full instructions on how to replicate it? Got me loads of disks that I'd like to copy, but stopped because manual work...
