| 15:20 | | Kindamoody[zZz] is now known as Kindamoody |
| 17:46 | | * Vornicus finds the wait loop, which is just checking the jiffy clock for changes |
| 17:46 | <~Vornicus> | Okay this is the *other* half of the update loop then. |
| 18:02 | | Degi [Degi@Nightstar-lnsk50.pool.telefonica.de] has joined #code |
| 18:36 | <~Vornicus> | the more names I put in, the faster figuring out the purpose of other code that happens to touch the named things |
| 20:14 | <~Vornicus> | Oh, this is reading from the joystick. ...fucking doomed |
| 20:18 | <~Vornicus> | now ... uh ... Hey McM how many drugs were the guys who designed the keyboard reader for the c64 on because What The Fuck Is This Shit |
| 20:25 | <@TheWatcher> | All the drugs/ |
| 20:26 | <@TheWatcher> | s|/|~| |
| 20:27 | <~Vornicus> | search "Location Range: 56320-56321" in http://unusedino.de/ec64/technical/project64/mapping_c64.html and look at that table. |
| 20:29 | <~Vornicus> | "Fortunately for us all, an interrupt routine causes the keyboard to be read, and the results are made available to the Operating System automatically every 1/60 second. And even when the normal interrupt routine cannot be used, you can use the Kernal SCNKEY routine at 65439 ($FF9F) to read the keyboard. |
| 20:30 | <@Tamber> | Wow, that's fantastic. |
| 20:38 | <@TheWatcher> | "Although common sense might lead you to believe that you could read the joystick that is plugged into the port marked Controller Port 1 from Data Port A, and the second joystick from Data Port B, there is nothing common about the Commodore 64" XD |
| 22:06 | | Kindamoody is now known as Kindamoody[zZz] |
| 22:27 | <&McMartin> | Vorn: The Spectrum is similar |
| 22:27 | <&McMartin> | I believe this is just the way keyboards work unless and until you stick a microcontroller in the keyboard itself |
| 22:27 | <&McMartin> | Which the IBM PC did in 1981, but that is because they were M-Fing IBM |
| 22:27 | <&McMartin> | Everyone else catches up in the 16-bit era, I believe. |
| 22:28 | <&McMartin> | (The ST at least has a sane keyboard hardware interface, and it *advertised* that its keyboard had a controller inside of it *in the marketing copy*) |
| 22:28 | <&McMartin> | otoh, the IBM keyboard also controls the PC speaker, because of reasons. |
| 23:13 | | * TheWatcher is still mildly miffed that the Sun Type 5 doesn't talk normal PS/2 serial, although he probably couldn't really use it these days even if he build a converter, thanks RSI |
