This is my fun social media account, I will post a lot of video game stuff (mostly old or cloud gaming) and some work stuff.
If I post an image with no Alt text it is because the image is just there for decoration and doesn't provide any extra meaning to the toot.

There’s no convincing me that these modern emulation based C64s aren’t really cool. I know plenty of people dismiss them as “it’s just a Raspberry Pi running Vice!” and whilst there’s some merit to that comment it doesn’t stop them being cool. #retrocomputing #c64 #retrogaming
@molly0xfff there are only so many I can do! I've dropped Disney+ and I'm coming close to dropping Xbox Cloud too.

#AI tools are becoming as ubiquitous as google, calculators, and cell phones. In case it's useful (or funny) to think about those considering wholesale banning of #ChatGPT and similar tools, here's an old satirical article by Doug Johnson on "A Proposal for Banning Pencils" https://www.educationworld.com/a_tech/columnists/johnson/johnson004.shtml

We've not had #BingChat for long and I am now at a point where I can't live without it!

@JJFlash yes, posted about this a little while ago :)
@JJFlash PS: I let him know on Facebook 😄
@JJFlash my Linux container seems to have gcc-10, I think XCB3 was compiled in a Linux box using gcc-11 or 12. I think that's the prob, but I am no expert... basically have different versions of GCC, I'm on Debian on more cutting-edge distros you wouldn't have an issue.

I really wish more people would try more Fediverse server software other than Mastodon.
It's easy to do, takes you just a minute of your time, and answers so many questions about what the Fediverse is capable of doing.

I can't help myself being somewhat proud to have had the opportunity to write an article for the Zzap! magazine, even if it's just the Italian edition (which is still official!). It's on this month's issue.
It's about #XCBASIC of course (I already said how much a fanboy of it I am :)
I had to build XC=BASIC 3 from source, but it is working now!
I'm not 100% convinced that for what I am doing V3 is better than V2 as the string length limit in V3 might be problematic. Anyway! If you get this issue:
xcbasic3: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.33' not found (required by xcbasic3)
xcbasic3: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.32' not found (required by xcbasic3)
xcbasic3: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.34' not found (required by xcbasic3)
Build from source. It fixes the problem.
