These guys are off into FOSS with a rendition of BASIC. It includes old-school graphics with a good collection of samples. It's even on Android.

#SmallBasic #OldSchool #FOSS

2024-05-23

Useful things in #Linux lately: apt-clone, #emacs & #elisp, #rakulang, #smallbasic (github version), silver searcher (ag), htop, pal calendar, #gimp, #kolourpaint, #vlc, #doublecommander, #gambas3, #geany, and distros like #manjaro, #pclos, #almalinux, #kubuntu, and #q4os
Pictured: An old photo of my #UbuntuStudio desktop from 2009, watching "The Cat From Outer Space".
The same system ran WinXP and Win 7 inside of VMs, allowing use of Adobe software and other Windows apps.
At the time I had been using Linux full-time at my business for about 4-5 years.
Soon I would take a Linux netbook with me for working abroad (running Ubuntu's netbook distro), along with a Nokia n810 as media station. The years 2009-2012 were, in my work, the second big wave of Linux on the Desktop. It was extremely fun and I'm still trying to recapture some of the enjoyment of those days, which faded a bit with the rise of the cloud.

A glass desk with a dual-monitor computer setup, a couple of large PC speakers by M-Audio, an empty water bottle, a small MIDI keyboard, and a Netflix envelope. On the L monitor we see an Ubuntu desktop background, while a movie plays on the R monitor.

Made a little New Year "intro" in my #SmallBasic based fantasy console Games for Rats

I added play controls to Games for Rats - and built standalone versions for Win/Mac/Linux (only Win is tested though).

#Racket is so much fun. I haven't had this much fun since I played with #SmallBasic some years ago.
