Awesome. I support this.

More drinks than viewers today make this arguably more fun!

I clearly call the function, yet it never gets called…. Ah why is this happening!?!

Damn Turbo C and its complete lack of warnings/errors.

More #retro afternoon programming!

Baby praying mantis on my screen.

A little #retro programming today

@msh I have a large form factor Sceptre TV that I purchased maybe 3 years ago that's dumb as can be. They still have them for sale online in the US. It's not the best (the speakers are horrific), but it is certainly dumb.

@maxeddy I had a laptop that wasn't supported by the now-ancient Windows 10 Anniversary Update (go to hell, Acer and AMD!), though it would try _every_ time it rebooted for about an hour or two and eventually fail.

Recognizing that it can't upgrade is maybe an improvement?

@dosnostalgic I like to think they licensed and installed Philips CD-I players in the Ford Explorer tourist transports.

@DestinationLinux describing the Nintendo Switch as a “kids’ console” was a bit too out of touch for me. I bailed on this episode early. I haven’t listened much in the last few months.

I will say that the M1 Mac Mini is astonishingly powerful. It makes the other two (an i5 and a dual-Xeon Mac Pro) look like cheap garbage.

I really want to hate Apple, but the M1 is damn good.

The Apple corner is where I’ve spent today. Two Mac Minis and a first-gen Intel Mac Pro on a KVM with a DEC AlphaServer against the wall...

Where I look up APIs...

Some more #retro game dev!

@tedu I'm glad my bank doesn't have anything about "burgers" on its website.

Multiple minutes of a build... The 8088 is so slow!

Another #retro game dev afternoon!

@zwangseinweisung @ices everyone I know is receiving this as a gift this year.

Have to try and get weapons working in this hacked-up game...

Let's try some #retro development this afternoon...
