I have already published some info about the forgotten Swiss Trading Card Game (TCG) "Mystery Planet" released around 1996.
I will soon publish about "Dragon Dawn", another Swiss TCG from the same period. For both of those, think about some kind of Magic the Gathering clone.
Next should be stuff about my collection of Swiss video games. And obviously anything else that I might find interesting to publish there.
And as a teaser, one of the cards of Mystery Planet

Pour JVMag.ch, j'ai pu jouer en avance à "Herdling" du studio suisse Okomotive AG (et édité par Panic, Inc.) et vous en faire une critique pour sa sortie aujourd'hui. Quel été prolifique pour le jeu vidéo suisse, et ce n'est pas terminé !
Le jeu n'a pas réussi à complétement me saisir, mais j'ai néanmoins apprécié l'inalpe!

@bishbashbackup @beet_keeper Additionally, some image formats are more suitable to some context (think floppy flux image formats) and all of this has emerged from both piracy and preservation as a hobby.
About compression or not, I will say that there are enough additional measures you can take to check/repair a file that I would say that keeping things uncompressed might not be the best approach, and this is not only for disk images. Same question for pictures...

@mickylindlar I am indeed one of the authors. Let me check what the licence is and then we can see if we can add it to Zenodo. If possible, I think it will be nice if it can be added.
And hopefully, we can get the report translated to English at some point.
