You can also use an indented (code) block

    - Remove AI from your editor completely.
    - Start a project which is easy and fun for you, something you did when first learning to code. Text-based adventure game, or some silly little app that is just for fun.
    - Or take a new language or some aspect of coding, that you have only brushed over, but want to learn better, and learn it properly by doing coding exercises or some silly project that teaches you the syntax etc.
    - Most importantly relearn how fun coding is

For fun, for personal projects.

How so?

Not exactly, that's more due to the projects. Let's say I want a music player with scrolling lyrics, I have a greater desire to have and use that music player than I do to build it. If there was a music player that already did exactly what I wanted I would use that. I think that might be a good way to put it: What I may be looking for is a project that I would build even if it already existed.

  1. I don't have AI in my editor in the first place, mostly use web chat with a bit of gemini CLI
  2. Good ideas; worth considering
  3. I'll pass
  4. That is my goal

The conflict between wanting the result versus wanting to program. The result tends to win out. Instant gratification, in short. If I want something enough to not lose interest when programming it myself, I usually want it enough to forego programming it myself in favour of having it earlier.

It is easier to see in other fonts, but yes, I am aware of that. However as far as I am aware, it was never used to join an e and t that were not the latin et.

&c as an abbreviation for etc was very common historically. For example, look at the OP. It would not normally be used for an et that is not the latin et (and), as in et cetera. Its use for an 'and' in latin carried over to english, for some reason, and that usage has stayed with us.

Same here, pretty much. I was able to get to 1200 without much difficulty but 1200 took a lot of effort to decipher.

As well as micropython, there is also a port of ulisp. http://www.ulisp.com/show?4JAO

I have used the T-Deck with tulipcc for coding and writing, although these days I mostly use it as a calculator. I wrote a GUI text editor for it, which you can find here:

I haven't done too much coding with it, but I have on occasion fixed bugs in the text editor on the T-Deck itself.

Not celtic, germanic, i.e. Anglo-Saxon derived words.

I believe the username is from the AI simulation of HN in 10 years.

Indeed. The influences are prominent, but it is BeOS modernised, not BeOS reimplemented.

It's hardware requirements are little, even overlapping with BeOS on the low end. I have personally run Haiku beta5 on a 666Mhz Pentium 3 with 256MB of RAM (normally, I run BeOS on that machine, with 512MB of RAM). I'm not sure what I'm trying to say here, besides a general call to give Haiku a try on that old thinkpad, in a VM[0], or anywhere else really.

[1] If you're using virtualbox don't give it more than 1 cpu, virtualbox has a bug which makes haiku slow with multiple CPUs.

Well at this point the BeOS (binary) compatibility is incidental. It is it's own system, and daily drivable for a great number of people. (admittedly not for gamers, but there are working nvidia drivers (not public (yet))), Firefox and derivatives have been ported, as well as most of the big name foss apps (libreoffice, etc) have been ported.

Have you tried Haiku recently?

Indeed, the only winning move is not to play.

I use lemurs, seems pretty similar.

This is very impressive! When I saw the title, I thought it would be classicube, but no, it's actual minecraft.

For old DOS games and programs, there is this: https://github.com/crazii/SBEMU

(because LINUX ELF binaries and runtime support are now available on IBM mainframes, Windows and as of last June, macOS)

I was not aware of linux binary support for macOS, can someone link to that?

EDIT: it seems to be this: https://www.infoq.com/news/2025/06/apple-container-linux/

While that way work on some hardware, on a lot of hardware it won't.

see https://old.reddit.com/r/osdev/comments/yjm04z/vga_on_uefi/i...

That would probably be because it is using UEFI text mode rather than VGA text mode.

There are actually two similar options, one is -nographic, which simply shows the serial terminal, and the other is -display curses, which will show the VGA text mode console on the terminal.

Have you seen tvision[0] and turbo[1]?

Same here. It's just better in almost every way.

I usually open videos of any topic I don't want in my recommendations in a private window.
