@ponydude2143 Android is...OK, but like Google+, it feels sort of...unfinished. Like google was like "Welp, there you go. Have fun with that"
-
Trends?! MUST GO AGAINST! I like FORTRAN.
-
@rotation Groovy.
-
@theonepony Or I could mention Object Pascal. Or Forth. BUT MY FAVORITE IS colorForth. HANDS DOWN.
-
@theonepony oh the memories.. I learned Fortran my freshman year but it seems to have mostly died out as do most lower level languages. Machine languages are just too tedious
-
@nimbusbuster I've been tempted to try to learn 6502 machine language. . .
-
@scribus That just sounds unpleasant.
-
@scribus oh wow... I think the last person I know who learned that was my Uncle when he was in college haha
-
@theonepony Yeah, but then I could homebrew NES games! (more likely - fail miserably at it!)
-
@nimbusbuster No school like the old school. lol
-
@scribus You could home brew them with something simple. Like Gamemaker. I bet you can find a cartage writer on the web somewhere.....
-
@theonepony Hmm... Maybe I could... And the nerd-cred of producing my own cartridge will be only mildly lessened! Also, I probably wouldn't finish regardless of the path I take. :p heh
-
@scribus I've done it. All you would need to worry about is keeping the graphics poor enough so your NES wouldn
-
@scribus 't explode.
-
@theonepony Well, if for some reason I ever did it, I'd probably just distribute the ROM. Maybe make a hard-copy for myself.
-
@scribus Heh, yeah. You would also need to find a way to convert the Gamemaket script to the machine language..... This is becoming more and more interesting.
-
@theonepony Boy, at this point I'm almost glad I can't remember what my old "brilliant" game idea(s) was (were). XD
-
Would I be a bad person for running virtual boxes of Windows 7, Haiku, and Parted Magic?
-
@theonepony nope, you would be a bad pony though
-
@nimbusbuster I dunno. I sometimes feel like people think I'm crazy when I say that. I used to also run USE, but I got tired of all the metal.
-
@theonepony What on earth would you do with a virtual Gparted box?
-
@theonepony I have Windows 8 and WebOS running in VMs.
-
@ceruleanspark I'm not really sure. It's fun though.
-
@ceruleanspark Windows 8? I hoping that's a typo because if you have a beta copy i'm going to be really jealous
-
@nimbusbuster Windows 8 Developer Preview: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/apps/br229516
-
@ceruleanspark Oh yeah? I haven't bothered to stick 8 onto my machine yet. Might have to dick around with it this weekend.
-
@theonepony In all honesty, like my experiment with ChromeOS on my EEEPC, it wasn't worth the effort it took to get working.
-
@ceruleanspark I had ChromeOS on my laptop for a while. It was pretty disappointing.
-
@theonepony Typical google product. They haven't launched anything good since Gmail.
