Your percentage of legal games was probably still higher than average 😉

good old times. those “starter animations” are called “intros”. this one has my favorite SID music: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j069Eve63iY

I beg to differ. They just asked for a book that explains “how to do pretty much anything” (admittedly pretty vague). i’m assuming they mean things like browsing the internet, composing simple music, editing photos etc. You can do that without knowing any of the things you mentioned - they are part of most operating systems today, so the book would just need to go to that level.And when it comes to programming, the book could just explain how to code simple stuff for example in JavaScript in the browser’s “developers tools” (or equivalent).

…and a high percentage of those were copied illegally. I’m not judging, just stating a fact

you’re right. nowadays a beginner would have to sift through a bunch of websites to figure out how to do it.

Employees of many corporations don’t have the luxury of choice. Apparently you do - more power to you!

interesting theory. i’m afraid we’ll never find out if it’s true

and all the great Winamp skins…

thanks for the compliment!

technically yes, although i use the “1 instruction per line” rule and give the number so that readers have a rough idea of the complexity of the solution

Touché! C64 at 1MHz had no chance for decent speed of emulation of Speccy at 3.5MHz

Async params - I stand corrected. thanks for catching this

you’re right, i have to rework it. i’m deleting the post for now. thanks for the feedback

Do you mean literally? Can you paste a screenshot?

Is that cheating or a feature? 😜

I appreciate your feedback!

There are a lot of similar games, but I don’t recall any black-and-white ones. Thanks for your feedback!

no, it runs directly in the browser
