  1. @MekahimeAkari I accidentally made something like a programming language while writing a "top-down rpg game engine" in #Gambas3 once... It was my project to learn #gambasbasic

  2. Useful things in #Linux lately: apt-clone, #emacs & #elisp, #rakulang, #smallbasic (github version), silver searcher (ag), htop, pal calendar, #gimp, #kolourpaint, #vlc, #doublecommander, #gambas3, #geany, and distros like #manjaro, #pclos, #almalinux, #kubuntu, and #q4os
    Pictured: An old photo of my #UbuntuStudio desktop from 2009, watching "The Cat From Outer Space".
    The same system ran WinXP and Win 7 inside of VMs, allowing use of Adobe software and other Windows apps.
    At the time I had been using Linux full-time at my business for about 4-5 years.
    Soon I would take a Linux netbook with me for working abroad (running Ubuntu's netbook distro), along with a Nokia n810 as media station. The years 2009-2012 were, in my work, the second big wave of Linux on the Desktop. It was extremely fun and I'm still trying to recapture some of the enjoyment of those days, which faded a bit with the rise of the cloud.

  3. @Setok I'd add #gambas3 to the list of underrated languages as well

  4. @robdaemon I usually pick some new project that I "always wanted to do"
    Like, I wrote an rpg-ish engine in #Gambas3 to learn it.

  5. Happy new year folk! We are back to work.

    This week we will have a new release of appimage-builder with many bug fixes and improvements!

    In the meantime could you please help me test this recipe for packing project as
