Typing CD keys was such a feeling when it was for a brand new game you can't wait to play, pure despair if you mistyped something and it didn't accept but then you corrected the error, biggest sense of relief of my childhood
My first typing was a game into C64 using machine code. Game magazines at that time dedicated a few pages with lines of hex numbers for games. After typing 4 pages you had a game.
Unfortunately, I‘ve got my data tape recorder two month later for xmas. And mom was nervous about keeping the power on for days. I entered those numbers quite some times. Load„*“,8,1
That's some hardcore 'cd key' typing lol
The joy of typing binary from a magazine into a hex editor :) we did it as two people, one reading, one typing, but I believe we only ever completed one of the smaller listings.
I'll leave this here -- it was maddening, but so satisfying and magical to have a running program after seemingly endless typing: https://archive.org/details/1990-11-compute-magazine/page/0-34/mode/1up?view=theater
