I like how Windows managed the 32bit/64bit migration in the most sensible way, by making us pick from two copies of every installer/binary forever

Usborne released a bunch of their old 80s programming books for free a while back, and they're all just a gem:

oh god as someone with dyslexia, the new discord spellcheck is HORRIBLE
It doesn't mark misspelled words until you stop typing. So if you spell something wrong, it'll look fine right up until you pause.

Hiya! Anyone in the SF Bay Area/Remote need a cool programmer for your team? I've been messing with computers for over 30 years now, I can program anything with bits, and I've got a lot of experience with all sorts of different systems, environments, and languages.
I've done mostly CI/CD/devops/SRE stuff recently, but I also do embedded software, some hardware, primary development, tooling, etc.
My resume:

So I'm 1600$ away from being able to pay my rent. I'm trying to take care of a household of 6 people, only two of who can work right now, and with my longterm illness (I was bedridden for 16 months) I'm just not able to make rent this month, as a bunch of unexpected costs hit right in a row.
If you've can donate any amount at all, it'd really help. Thanks so much.

since my new initials are "AT", I'm thinking I might make an LLC called like "AT Software" so I can get the email address at@atsoft.egg for maximum confusing.
or instead of an LLC, I'll get a GmbH in Austria.

Neat DOS game remake: God of Thunder 3D!
It's free on itch and steam. Very faithful to the original, but gives it a 3D Dot Heroes look:

there's a scene in The Man With One Red Shoe, where someone is trying to use a bathroom that has been hastily reconstructed by the CIA. they turn on their sink, and the toilet flushes. They flush the toilet, and the shower turns on.
that's how computers work on normal days, even without CIA intervention

so after being bedridden for 16months due to a hernia, I've finally got my surgery!
now I'm bedridden for recovery, fun!
I'm in a lot of debt from my illness and I've not found a job yet, so if you've got a couple dollars, it'd help me get through this last stretch. Thanks so much!
and my patreon is at https://www.patreon.com/c/foone , if you'd like to set up a monthly donation. Thanks!

so after being bedridden for 16months due to a hernia, I've finally got my surgery!
now I'm bedridden for recovery, which is at least a great improvement.
I'm still about 2000$ away from paying all my storage bills, so if you've got a couple dollars, it'd help me get through this last stretch. Thanks so much!
