@eniko this is for Windows 3.1, but I've been thinking of making my own "shareware" compilation of games I'll be creating using Klik & Play https://www.myabandonware.com/game/klik-play-fxl

@discatte @nina_kali_nina I think I may actually have an idea for smooth scrolling 160x100 8bpp double buffered graphics without using assembly 🤔

@eniko Gorillas-like? ("-like" in the sense of the language it is programmed.) (Anybody remembers it nowadays?)

@eniko That had a propaganda effect on me, I did not figure out that qbasic could be compiled ---and qbasic programs be much faster--- until 25 years later!

@eniko Won't qbasic be pretty bad at scrolling? Like MSX bad?

@eniko Last time I did that was in the late eighties. A long night of coding together with the woman who is now my wife, on something that made music. We ended up going to the alll-night in the Breestraat, Leyden,, getting snacks and half-liltres of Amstel beer. playing the music game we made, and then falling asleep and missing college the next day.
Amstel beer, btw, is not nice.

Mike Delevante - September Days (2026)
September Days segna il primo album solista di Mike Delevante, noto soprattutto per il lavoro con il fratello Bob nei The Delevantes, duo storico della scena Americana. Pur essendo un esordio individuale, l’album riflette la lunga esperienza di Delevante con melodie guitar-driven e un songwriting che si muove tra tradizione folk, rock classico e power pop... https://artesuono.blogspot.com/2026/02/mike-delevante-september-days-2026.html

Wilco – Schmilco (2016)
Dopo avere assistito ad un concerto di Wilco si ha come la sensazione che la band di Jeff Tweedy sia l'ultima depositaria dei canoni della musica americana e che nessuno oggi sappia suonare così, sia per perizia di mezzi che per feeling. A prescindere da ciò, basterebbe scorrere i singoli capitoli dell'intera discografia per notare c... https://noblogo.org/available/wilco-schmilco-2016

Tutti i visti di Epstein per la Russia. Così aveva accesso a unità d’élite dei servizi di Putin

@khinsen Agreed, the family of languages makes a lot of sense once you take the historical evolution into account.

@stefano
I read your post, and stuff like this is incredibly infuriating. You did everything right, someone made a tiny mistake and the insurance company is exploiting it to the fullest extent possible. And you are essentially powerless, unless like you said you get an attourney and battle your insurance in court for a couple of years. And who has the time and energy for that...I had my bike stolen once, which was insured, and they also weasled them out of their obligation to pay because of a technicality. So I bought a new bike and canceled the insurance. No point in having one if they're not paying...

@amoroso From a pragmatic point of view, I share the "toolbox" perspective, but taking a historical perspective, @aartaka 's view of CL being a fusion of similar languages with distinct focuses is interesting.
Nothing special of course, human languages are much the same: the result of complex historical paths, which however we don't need to know or understand to use the language.
