Hooray
00:36 * McMartin fixes a bug that is basically invisible to all end users and most of his fellow developers

05:11 * McMartin pokes at a few programs on his Raspberry Pi, which is currently mostly running BBC BASIC
05:11
<&McMartin>
It is deeply, deeply weird to see what is clearly a BASIC program also organized almost exactly like a Windows 3.1 event loop
05:11
<&McMartin>
But hey, it's apparently fast enough to run Proper GUI Applications, so, uh, more power to them I guess
05:14
<&[R]>
They're not exactly slouches...
05:14
<&[R]>
Windows 3.1 itself ran on slower stuff

"BBC BASIC for SDL 2.0 (BBCSDL) is an advanced cross-platform implementation of BBC BASIC for Windows, Linux (x86 CPU only), Mac OS-X, Raspberry Pi (Raspbian), Android and iOS."
05:21
<&[R]>
So... 32bit x86 only for Linux... but also ARMv6l?
05:26
<&McMartin>
This isn't that fork
05:26
<&McMartin>
This is the one that's the BBC BASIC V on the Acorn Archimedes, preserved through all subsequent editions of RISC OS.
05:27
<&McMartin>
RISC OS is a ROM-based OS originally, since it's That Era, so it ends up looking kind of like Win95 on the outside (with a very alien UI idiom), looking more like Win3.1 on the inside, where you're doing things, and with an approach to UI-in-ROM that looks very Early Mac.
05:28
<&[R]>
Ah
05:28
<&McMartin>
It's also got an SDL 1.x port so I've mostly ignored that when I've poked at it in the past
05:28
<&McMartin>
But it's definitely existing at an interesting if justly-abandoned point in the design space.

First World Problems: searching for a keycombo that editor hasn't already bound (or, looking up how to unbind existing editor hotkeys)

<@TheWatcher>
Unbind? Nah, just add more bucky bits
14:48
<@TheWatcher>
(Note: may require a programmable keyboard~)

This new "gaming" mouse I have appears to be better described as "extremely high maintenance".
21:10
<&[R]>
Hourly oil rubs are a problem yeah
21:10
<@ErikMesoy>
Holes and cracks and weird shitty open design all around the underside leading to grime accumulation and poor movement until I wipe it down again.
21:11
<@ErikMesoy>
Whereas my previous generic brand mouse had a sensible sealed underside and once every few months I'd just scrape off a millimeter from the knobs. :P
