@lritter i'd like C if it was simpler. what i really like about C is that you write a list of things for the computer to do and it goes into this big grid of numbered boxes and changes what's in the boxes. you can remember the widths of the boxes easily by multiplying them by 8. thats all there is to it. if you mess up with the boxes its kind of your fault. for telling it to open the wrong box. you don't feel angry at it, because it's fair. good game design. i think they call it a souls-like
I’m fascinated by “Frontier: Elite II”, a space game from 1993 featuring:
- 3D graphics.
- Flight and space physics (lightweight, but still).
- Factions, trade and combat.
- Ship customization.
All that implemented originally in 250000 lines of 68000 assembly, with the whole game fitting in a single double density disk.
Seriously, if you have an emulator and some time to spare, spin it up and give it a try.
Dear printer-fighting fediverse,
I'm afraid that our printer is reaching the end of its life, and I'm considering buying a new one: I believe that the recommendation for printers that print and don't try to trick you into subscriptions is Brother, and the usual shops I buy these things from either don't have them, or they are huge multifunction ones (and they are out of stock anyway).
do you have recommendations for ships with a website to buy printers from, ideally in it or at least in eu?
(I'm looking for a colour laser, with ethernet)
