@mcneely @jynersolives 🤣 I’m 61 and worked in IT from the before times. #Mastodon feels more like those days.
James Trickle uP@twokatmew @mcneely @jynersolives I'm 56 and got started on HP Timesharing BASIC at 300 baud, Apple ][, cassette file storage, 5.25" floppies, BSD via 1200 baud dialup, uucp, C-News (USENET), archie and veronica, ftp by mail, so though I'm 6 years your junior, I too feel old as dirt. High five!
@twokatmew @mcneely @jynersolives I recently found all the tapes of the HP-2000F BASIC system available on the Internet and have been trying to resurrect a favorite star trading game from there (rewriting in C++). It... needs work, I don't know that flavor of BASIC as well as I once did.
