New one will be a meter tall and run on gasoline.

Zero-code has been about to make us all redundant for about five decades running so far.

Dark Conflict/Days Of Ruin

Their definition of “secret” seems very different from mine.

Computer scientists are notoriously literal.

So proud. Their first step toward being bought out by a massive publisher and then made redundant after a year.

New edition is just an incoherent rant about the “woke mind virus” trying to destroy him for “just saying what everyone is thinking”.

This was doomed from the gecko.

Couldn’t you all just vanish into the tundra if the Yanks stormed the border? They’d soon get bored and go home.

But I have a mouse from 20 years ago that works just fine.

They could figure this out more easily by simply playing the game and deciding if they enjoyed it or not.

Isn’t that Jared from Silicon Valley?

Imagine calling your kid KnockoutJS.

“It’s a Fortran system; I know this!”

Oh, my sweet Summer child…
