Any #CommanderX16 peeps on fedi?

I'm still glad I ordered my #C64U, but I think I'd like to play with an #X16 a little later (perhaps when the second or even third generation hardware is finalized), as it seems like it might be a little more hacker-friendly, having an assembly monitor baked in, as well as a non-line-numbered editor and BASIC converter.

Hopefully both communities will cooperate and there will be similar hacks and tools for the C64U.

I kinda like the tack that the Commander #X16 has taken with this, using the Commodore 8-bit machines as a hardware platform, but giving it near Amiga capabilities through FPGA coolness.

I'm hoping that the C64U (or a follow-up device, #SUATMM forever, dadgummit) might take a similar path.

Also, I don't know if anyone has complained about the price, but if they do, kindly remind them that $299 today is $89.06 in 1982 money, and the C64 debuted at $595 ($1,997.57 in 2025 US clams).

@slembcke

At the very least, we'll get a nice branding umbrella for stuff like the #X16.

I really wanna see them take on microshit, though. And crapple. (Even though he's a bit of a fanboy of modern-day apple).

Now that we have multiple modern retrocomputing systems, would it not be prudent to host a place where representatives from each project can post lessons learned developing each platform, so we can all learn from them going forward?

I've completed "Scratchcards" - Day 4 - Advent of Code 2023 #AdventOfCode https://adventofcode.com/2023/day/4

That was actually quite fun! No major hurdles.

#TIL:
• BASIC has a ^ operator
• You can move your caret within a PRINT statement with some special characters

I just completed "Cube Conundrum" - Day 2 - Advent of Code 2023 #AdventOfCode https://adventofcode.com/2023/day/2

So much I learned!
* INPUT# stops at ':'
* LINPUT# expects CR linefeed
* Variable names with only two significant characters
* 1 is TRUE but NOT(1) is not FALSE
* It's really hard to write reasonably readable code

I'm using the #x16 emulator on mac.

Philip has created a new release of VolksForth 6502 for the Commodore 64 and Commander X16

This release adapts the X16 VolksForth to the R46 ROM. It also adds an X16 binary with added words to invoke the ROM-based X16Edit (XED), to list directories and files (DIR and CAT) and to issue DOS commands and read the error channel (DOS).

Es ist nur Teil eins des Advent of Code #aoc2023 von heute, aber das war sehr spaßig, und ich bin stolz überhaupt, den Emulator des #x16 in Betrieb zu nehmen, und die Puzzledaten aus einer Datei gelesen zu haben.

Hübsch ist das alles noch nicht, und es scheitert z.T. auch daran, dass ich keine Zeichen in eine Zeile einfügen kann (löschen geht) - OTOH weiß ich gar nicht, ob das auf dem C64 überhaupt ging.

Das ist übrigens der Emulator des Commander x16 und das hauseigene #BASIC

In case you missed it, here's my opinion about the latest #CommanderX16 repositioning. I don't hold back, as I already got enough crap online and otherwise for publishing an earlier opinion on the technical side of things. So this is unfiltered.

Really tempted to pre-order one but they're almost 300 pound :blobfoxblushmore:

The #Commander #X16 is now trying to be a children's toy. Here's what I think about it: https://www.thebyteattic.com/2023/10/the-toynomator-cx16.html

Finally got around to watching the video for the 8-bit guy's new 8 bit computer work in progress.

It is ambitious, and it will take a lot of work to pull it off, but it seems like a pretty solid box.

With the right supporting software, he's about 75% of the way to what I would want as a minimum computer for daily use.

Anyway, the Commander #X16 project looks like it'll be neat.
