After all these years I'm still wondering why it was necessary to explicitly mark line numbers in fortran, logo and basic.

Holy shit. I forgot all about the autoexec.bat. I remember always having to fuck around with mine back in the 90's.

Back when Windows 10 was tolerable before it was ruined to satisfy all the noobs.

I loved Windows 10 back in the early Tech Preview days.

>>58705680
How's this any different from Windows 10 with a light blue colorscheme?
After the Anniversary Update it looks mostly like this.

Norton commander would like a word with you. Also there's a Linux clone called midnight commander.

Makes me want to open up Lazarus and actually use a productive language/environment instead of all of this rust/go/haskell/memelang crap.

according to some programming langauge poll, obj. pascal/delphi/lazarus are still more popular than the latest hottest meme '''''''''coding languages""""""""""""""""""

Oh, Delphi. I loved that shit cause it used pascal. But the build we had were bugged as hell, a single wrong move could mean all your work lost, had to restart the machine.

what?

>>58706711

By the rate of "Why we switched from Memelang1 to Memelang2" posts, I don't think many of these people are concerned with technical debt at all...

They just start over for the faintest of reasons.

>>58705612
Because when you were coding on teletype machines, you couldn't just move the cursor in between lines and add a new line. If you wanted to add a line to your code then you could go from:

10 PRINT "YOU'RE A FLAMING"
20 GOTO 10

And you want it to actually print YOU'RE A FLAMING FAGGOT, you can just add

15 PRINT "FAGGOT "

to the end, to make

10 PRINT "YOU'RE A FLAMING"
20 GOTO 10
15 PRINT "FAGGOT "

and it will run it in the order 10,15,20.

>>58705483
So? Maybe you want to see the first command initializing properly.

I had an Amiga so I never had to fuck with MS-DOS and their shitty game ports.

>>58709281
Right because you only had one game to worry about, golden axe.

>>58709914
Had thousands of cracked games.
All SEGA game ports looked better on Amigas.

>>58705722
It really was different. I had it installed and it felt like Windows 7 with a flat theme and the good parts of 8.1.

For one it had a consistent look all over, not a hundred different visual styles copypasted from desktop, tablet, phone and braille paradigms.

>>58707012
That is a hardware thread. This is software.

You are welcome to kill yourself if you don't like it, you little faggot.
