i'm looking for work. if you know anyone who needs someone with 8+ years professional experience plumbing nearly any sort of bespoke tech, talk to me.

if you like a post where a person is talking about killing themselves that means that you like that that person wants to kill themselves, there is no other interpretation for the wording x has liked your post that i can infer in good faith and this is why i tell people not to like my negative posts unless they like that i'm in misery because if you want to convey anything else you have 26 letters and punctuation at your disposal

techies: this app hasn't been updated in over 30 minutes, it's obsolete and you shouldn't use it anymore!

also techies: i have to re-learn how to interact with my device every time venture captitalists think it's been too long without an update

HUGE step forward

i now have Stefan's basic running on the gizmo with full graphic capabilities of the monochrome 128x64 display and implemented a FatFSUSB driver so i can save files and transfer them to a computer

gave up on pybasic on top of circuitpython, have now been porting stefan's tinybasic 2 to the gizmo

some text printing and scrolling is still bad but this is slowly becoming a much more functional basic machine

BASIC is a really nice language to just Get Something Done On The Computer Easy

i think more people should try BASIC dialects

is gravy the new #fedimeta
