Hoo boy; we have all sorts of formatting options here!
10 print "goto 10";
20 hello world!

(Personally, I liked to spell it GO TO wherever it’d let me)
/me waddles in and lurks in a corner
Welcome ^^ How do you like our new banner lol
It is groovy!
I hope this place will become popular and full of useful guides and whatnot
Thanks :)
I haven’t announced it anywhere public yet (= our subreddit); I’m totally new to lemmy.
I'm new too! It's a new age of internet isn't it
A bit like a cross between the social media and the insular web forum ages, plus added activism and federation. So… I guess yes. :)
Yea, I think it's a good thing tbh. Reddit used to be a big part of the internet, owned by a single company. Now, not anymore and that's great!
Hey everyone, I saw this "trending" community and subbed :)
Excellent! :)
@monolalia @raspberriesareyummy hello, this is a post from mastodon. If this works, it seemns federation here is working as expected, very nice indeed.
Checking in... Love the Commodore pic. Started coding on a C64 then Amiga (Which I still have). Do it as a job now on a boring Windows PC.
we're used to getting things working, we can shift to this.
Beautiful device. Would love to see a video of it working.
Languages that used line numbers didn't use semicolons to mark the end of a statement.
Also, this program would just say "goto 10" and then would popup an error because "hello world!" is not a statement.
But I'm just being silly.
Jumbling up that bit of rote code was the joke! But the semicolon isn’t supposed to end the line; it tells BASIC to suppress the newline after the print statement. Makes for a better endlessly scrolling text experience ;)
Hello there
General Kenobi
hello world!
hello world!
hello world!
hello world!
hello world!
hello world!
hello world!
hello world!
...
with the ; it would be hello world!hello world!hello world!hello world!hello world!hello world!hello world!hello world!hello world!hello world!hello world!hello world!hello world!hello world!hello world!hello world!hello world!hello world! …
;)
(That makes it still visibly scroll/add text once the screen is full!)
$the more you know 🌠
It’s always so disappointing when retrocomputing YouTubers don’t do that…
