it stopped working. 😑

weirdly, if I *release* the shift key for any reason, the program resets! it works as long as I hold it down. 😅

but it's just the shift key on the Apple II. how cursed could that possibly be?

*opens the closet, finds skeletons*

so the CPU data bus is muxed between the RAM data and the uhhhhhh keyboard port? that's special

also interesting: the shift key(s) is not a normal key in that it does not generate a scan code. it only modifies the key codes generated by the keyboard matrix decoder chip. so how can my Apple IIe detect it when i release shift?

I'm amazed that you find the shift key "interesting" because it performs the same function it has always performed throughout its history, including its mechanical era.

I just reviewed the thread and see that the only reply to it is mine, and your reply to my reply. There exists no other subsequent information in this thread.

@ClaraListensprechen4 I'm not talking about my thread, I'm talking about the thread you replied to without reading.

You must be a lawyer. You're too unpleasant not to be. You're fighting your cause and don't really understand why nobody takes you seriously, not even others in the same movement. You're cripplingly lonely but not emotionally smart enough to know why. And you spend far too much time on social media talking to yourself. I am muting you now.

@engagedpractx
Thus you miss the point. I read the thread over here, so if it wasn't part of the thread I was reading, then there's no way I read it. Capice?

@engagedpractx
Muting me because you don't know how threads work is moronic. Bubbye Bubba.
