GWBasic on a Tandy 1000. I wrote a guessing game then a super super shitty implementation of blackjack. Ahh the fun of numbering you own lines.

I knew when my dad showed me gwbasic on a tandy 1000. Never did more than a high/low guessing game but not bad for a 7 year old. I so do not miss having to manually number lines.

My laptop died on Monday. 5 days after it's first full backup in 2 years. I'm almost disappointed it was a power connection issue and not a drive failure

"Sorry but we can't run unknown code on the server"

Developers who think spaces are better than tabs.

Seriously every editor other than Notepad lets you set how many spaces a tab is equal to. Stop trying to force your stupid 2 space tabs on me.
