I dunno why, but I kinda wanna learn perl

A man ran up to Jesus, knelt before him, and asked him, “Good Teacher, what must I do to receive eternal life?”

...

Jesus looked straight at him with love and said, “You need only one thing. Go and sell all you have and give the money to the poor, and you will have riches in heaven; then come and follow me.”

When the man heard this, gloom spread over his face, and he went away sad, because he was very rich.

Jesus looked around at his disciples and said to them, “How hard it will be for rich people to enter the Kingdom of God!”

The disciples were shocked at these words, but Jesus went on to say, “My children, how hard it is to enter the Kingdom of God! It is much harder for a rich person to enter the Kingdom of God than for a camel to go through the eye of a needle.”

Mark 10:17.

Been thinking about software preservation.

BASIC is not really the most ideal application for software preservation, it just so happens that many magazines with type in code have been archived.

I wonder what a software preservation language would require.

The people on the retro computing forum seem to think it would be a very simple to implement virtual machine.

Thinking about operating systems written in BASIC 🤔💭

And no, not the Commodore 64 screen editor.

Unix has a kernel, but what would a BASIC system have?

The Wii modding scene has come so, so far.

Thank you for all your hard work, whoever you are.

"It was DNS!"

Sure it was...

the "no kings" protests in the USA definitely gives me hope

I need to spend some time just playing around in BASIC, been thinking about graphics too

@purple what kind of interface?

@Suiseiseki none of them are good?

@Suiseiseki i'm looking for good microcontrollers... anything with 8K RAM and above is good--do you have any suggestions?

where can you get serial/I2C memory for cheap?

the kind that you can attach to an arduino microcontroller?

Security is primarily a social problem.

You can't google pixel grapheneOS your way to perfect digital security.

Why would you even use iOS?

I wonder what it is possible to do with a dial up internet connection today.

Because I have always wanted to run a dial up ISP.

thinkin' about that time i found out QR codes can store up to about 3KB data

3KB QR code computer programs?

potential permacomputing applications?

Largest Symbol Size: 177 x 177 modules

Maximum Data Capacity:

There's a way to add SRAM to an Arduino in an inexpensive way, I am sure...
