oh hay image uploading is back

after the repair fail i made myself feel better by using an emulator to learn how Atari 8bit DOS works n stuff, ported code golf fractal to Atari Basic / BASIC XL 🫡

haha GTIA mode 11 go brrr

Atari DOS is frickin' weird and an odd menu driven thing that makes zero sense because the menu is just listed in alphabetic order so instead of something sane like "D" for directory its "🅱️"

and it just kind of spews long listings off screen and it expects you to remember and type a filename to do things to it, its total garbage nonsense. peak atari doing it cheap instead of well

its nuts and i guess the power users use spartados which is more normal about things

that antic through an authentic shitty RF connection to a 12in CRT is just beautiful tho

peak 80s
