I think the first one I used, on loan over the summer from the college of FE that my Mum worked at, was an Intertec Superbrain. If not that then something from that era with a monitor and twin floppies all in one.

The first one I owned was a Sinclair ZX81, then a C64 shortly after it halved in price, then an Amiga. Coded the heck out of the 81 and 64 but not much on the Amiga. I remember trying out a C compiler on the C64 but there was so much disk swapping involved that it was just ridiculous and I gave up.

OK, then what angle is it?

There’s only one person whose opinion on that matters, and she’s aged 30. And maybe your daughter too, but she set it up so that’s unlikely.

You can always find a bunch of weirdos on the internet who’ll be offended at you, no matter who you are or what you do, so it’s never a good idea to not do stuff just because of that.

If you’re worried if you ARE a creep then I’d suggest plugging “what it means to be a creep” or “what is a creep” into your favourite search engine and make sure your regular habits exclude whatever you find. Use several sources, not just the first you find, because not everything on the internet is true.

OK. Walk in a straight line for a couple of metres and stop. Rotate left or right by exactly 90°. Now take a curved path in any direction.

Did you or did you not turn 90°?

I don’t see the point. Even on my monster screen they’re only 6mm² so if it’s anything other than simple line art it’s just a small meaningless square of digital noise.

What’s orange and sounds like a parrot? A carrot.

I AM NOT A ROBOT.

I CAN PROVE IT.

WOULD A ROBOT PRETENDING TO BE A HUMAN INTENTIONALLY DROP THEIR CONN%~~~~~~#!!! No Carrier

I always thought BT should get into the property market. They could sell a house, then rent that house to its new owner, then charge them a fee for using each room.

He just wants another slice of rhubarb tart

I thought that was a t. Took me a while to figure out that “Cheetos bait” isn’t a thing.

Hope you don’t find out who #11 is. (I DDG’d it and wish I hadn’t.)

I click links frequently and I’m not a web crawler. Example: get search results, open several likely looking possibilities (only takes a few seconds), then look through each one for a reasonable understanding of the subject that isn’t limited to one person’s bias and/or mistakes. It’s not just search results; I do this on Lemmy too, and when I’m shopping.

They’re comforted by the knowledge that at least they’re not the guy who installs indicators on BMWs.

I tried pocket a couple of times but couldn’t get past the “we think you’re on a phone so you’re only getting three items on the screen at once”. Well I’m not on a phone, I’m on a desktop with a 32" monitor and three T-Rex sized items on my screen is just terrible design.

If “basic human needs” includes a full working set of fingers, all ten, because then I get them back.

Not in technology, it’s a rapidly evolving field. Answers that might have been absolutely perfect five years ago can now be irrelevant archaic trivia.

My meter is about six inches by three (from memory). It measures voltage (both AC and DC) and current.

I’ve only seen one so far (twice) - My Neighbour Totoro, so it’ll have to be that one for now.

Make sure your driving licence is valid for driving manual in Romania. Here in the UK if you pass your test on an automatic, you’re only licenced to drive automatic, and if you drive manual then you are breaking the law and your insurance is invalid.

Maybe there’s no issue but it’s worth checking.
