Has anyone used the Cardfile App in Windows? If so, what did you use it for :D? Its intention is to simulate a collection of index cards, useful for things like contacts and recipes Considering there are database & word processing apps, are there still use cases for this?

🧵 Going to do a cursory look through the OM1 cardfile and report my findings here. First of all, I really enjoy most of the places that they were able to keep the card name and card concept intact. Especially on this one.

This isn't a problem unique to WotC. Literally every game - card game, video game, board game, etc. experiences this. WotC can have what, ~30 testers that have access to a stable cardfile for ~6 months? Once the set releases, there's literally tens of thousands of (1/2)

Never heard of Cardfile. Is that like HyperCard?

You might think it's just a game, but it's so much more! Minesweeper was included to teach users how to right-click. Solitaire was included to get people familiar with drag and drop. Cardfile was included to familiarize people with MDI applications. Paint was included for mouse dexterity, range selection, and more advanced mouse use. Pinball was included just because it was cool. Credit to @dsobeski for pointing it out!

It’s like the ol’ #CardFile days IYKYK

The best Baekhyunee pocas through his fetus era, daddy era, and noot noot era according to me 🤣🤣🤣 The cardfile safely arrived, tysm as always @Kyungsells 🥰🥰🥰

I still smell the cardfile and can see the bent over tabs.

When Bestow is a large focus of a set, it imposes design constraints on other parts of the cardfile. Compulsory Rest used to be Faith's Fetters, but it was too frustrating to get your bestow aura trapped under a Pacifism. The ability lets you unlock it and not get 2-for-1d.

Cardfile was an app where users could create, store & retrieve digital index cards for contacts. Introduced in Windows 1 (1985), it was technically included in Windows until Windows ME (2000), although it was not installed by default starting with Windows 95 (1995). 🗂

The #Staplechase deadline is tomorrow, and as I go through the cardfile and make my selections, I'll put my thoughts in a thread 👇. I've never tried this before -- anticipating which cards in a set will get the most play in Commander -- but failing in public can be healthy!

This could be a useful application for an LLM in the medium-term future. Take an LLM fine-tuned on the existing corpus of cards, rules, decklists, combos, everything ever written about Magic. Run the latest cardfile through and let it suggest potential problematic interactions.

Microsoft Cardfile (1992). It was some kinda weird business app to make business-people think computers were the future. From an era when many companies still kept their customer records on little paper index cards in tiny drawers.

Yes, I continue to use my cardfile box as I never know when I won't be able to use my PC & need to know address, phone # for person.

Can just use flatfile databases to replicate a cardfile type system, any #MSAccess and #LibreOfficeBase have memo field and OLE/Blob fields that allow an object to be inserted in a record.

On This day, November 20, 1985. Microsoft released its 16-bit graphical operating environment, Windows 1.0, which offered limited multitasking for MS-DOS programs. Windows 1.0 is considered a "Front-end for the MS-DOS operating system", a description that has also been applied to later versions of Windows. Windows 1.0 offers programs such as: calculator, calendar, clipboard viewer, Clock, Notepad, Paint, Reversi, Cardfile, Terminal and Writer. Windows 1.0 was adopted very slowly, largely because it lacked an "App Killer" to drive users to use it while encouraging the use of a mouse for navigation, which was a relatively new concept in Windows 1.0. that moment. Windows 1.0 does not allow overlapping windows. Instead all the windows are tiled. Only dialog boxes can appear on top of other windows. This is because Apple computer had that feature. Windows will have four versions: 1.01, 1.02, 1.03 and 1.04.

Somebody probably suggested the original in the cardfile and the Arena team said "nah that old ass templating is too many clicks dawg"

Oh my God. I was there. I still have Cardfile.
