I found one guy at the end of this thread who claimed that at least since Paint became Paint 3D, it's unable to open any file whose uncompressed size is greater than about 250MB, giving the error you describe.

Looking at the TweakPNG screenshot, your image is 10208 * 14032 pixels, times 3 bytes per pixel gives a total size of ~430MB.

Maybe try scanning at 600dpi or even 300dpi? It won't be as crisp, but should still be quite readable. If you're just scanning invoices to keep a convenient record of them and not scanning hard-drawn art or something, resolution probably doesn't need to be that great.

Luckily, it'll be a long time before X11 dies completely - XWayland is an X11 server built on top of the Wayland protocol (much like there are X11 servers built on the Windows and macOS APIs). At the moment it's a bit awkward for gaming, since it only supports one resolution (the Wayland desktop resolution), and it doesn't support locking the mouse to a window, so using the mouse to aim the camera in first-person games doesn't really work. However, I believe an extension for that is under development.

Well, sure, there are some kludges, but in essence that's how it works, isn't it? Each program has some .dll files shipped with it and it has a folder in the Program Files/ hierarchy. I can't ever remember Firefox or whatever hassling me about dependencies on Windows, except for .NET and friends, but those are practically part of the system anyway.

Isn't a better long-term solution to rewrite all your links according to the Redirector addon's patterns, or some such, eliminating the entire class of issues?

Personally, I just do the middle click -> click -> end -> select with mouse -> delete -> CTRL-A -> CTRL-X -> CTRL-V dance. Although it certainly isn't efficient.

For instance, Google does the same thing for their search results. And I think there's an addon which fixes the redirects (e.g. like Redirector, but with a default list like (Ad|u)Block). But I don't think there's any addons which rewrite the URLs in situ.

Oh, and as for N64's graphics APIs: supposedly, they map very well to the archaic Glide API, which in turn has shims for OpenGL and friends. So that could very well be a way to go at it. On the other hand, then you get 2+ layers of stacked shims, so that could have all sorts of problems.
