Ahh, this is great news: standalone DOSBox PURE.

I've used the PURE core on Retroarch for a few years now, and it's taken a lot of the fuss out of running DOS games. It autoconfigures an appropriate PC spec for a particular game correctly the vast majority of the time.

Hostess Lights (1990-circa 1995): A line of low-fat and cholesterol-free (as was the style at the time) treats from Hostess. Varieties included plain chocolate, raspberry-filled, vanilla pudding-filled, and apple spice cupcakes, as well as brownies and Twinkies

A cross section of a chocolate cupcake with chocolate frosting, with a red jelly filling, sitting next to a single raspberry. The top of the image reads "New 97% fat free, no cholesterol Hostess Lights". The ad copy reads "Let them eat cake.", and a line up of 3 different white boxes with images of cupcakes with different fillings sits along the bottom

Somehow, the low-fat Twinkies were the last snack cake standing, limping along into the early 2000s as the sole remnant of the Hostess Lights line, long after the rest of the offerings had been dropped
