Yes. *I* needed typing training to type efficiently and quickly. The fact that said training started with the Almena method rather than the classic "JJJ space FFF space JJJ space FFF space JFJ space FJF space JJF space FFJ space" method doesn't remove the requirement for training (and more importantly, practice and ongoing use.) https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.almenatyping.com%2F

For WinG, there's a "Its pretty much dead Jim" component from the WINE project, called WINEVDM

You can use it to run win16 applications on modern windows. (with lots of warts. Caveat emptor)

It can also run win16 applications inside WINE. (same caveats apply)

For old DX versions, I'd suggest stringing DGVoodoo2 together with VKD3D in a proton container. Essentially wraps those old APIs over DX12, which is provided by VKD3D over Vulkan, and has quite a few options you can fiddle with about color depth support reporting, and options to force upscale (useful for those 640x480@8bit DX5 games, since modern monitors dont like those legacy modes).

Bonus, is that it also functions as a glide wrapper.

You can do this right now.

Use DGVoodoo2 with VKD3D.

VKD3D provides DX11 and DX12 over Vulkan.
DGVoodoo2 wraps DX1 through DX9 over DX12 api. (which will functionally pipe it through Vulkan on Linux)

Your wine / proton prefix will need to be set to use native DLLs, but it totally works.

That being said, the article DID make clear that there WAS a court order for him to disband the account, and even if he was using in all the right ways for all the right reasons, not-complying with a court order is extremely problematic.

Then her remedy is to go back to court and compel the target of the order, aka the ex-husband, to do as ordered, not to claim that a third party with no standing in the case is at fault.

If you and I contract that I will sell you may Ford Escape for five grand, and you give me five grand and I don't give you the keys, you don't go to Ford and ask them to make you a key. They will, correctly, say "....and what does this have to do with us?" when you wave the sale contract at them.
