@vidak Have you looked at Tinylisp yet? I think I was more open to it after being exposed to your Basic explorations.

I also feel like I have neglected Common Lisp.
I experience a lot of joy coding in Lisp.
Will remedy this situation in the coming months.
Might look like:
simple little web memex with hunchentoot or caveman.
a port of @oats to Common Lisp
???
Been thinking about BASIC.
Perhaps time to return to @oats ?
Australians: oh I definitely need a crew cab ute and a top-mounted tent to go camping. And the trailer with the kitchen in it, that goes without saying

New lengthy video coming up later. It took a while to edit the massive amounts of footage down to something digestible. :D
Once upon a time IBM Research had scans of the Journal of Research and Development and the System Journal on line. I archived them before they disappeared and just pushed them to bitsavers

I saw the post by @itsfoss at https://mastodon.social/@itsfoss/115576426252562030
...and I decided to make my own.
Good day.
I have been thinking about this some more.
I think that a hash emailed backwards and forwards may be unnecessary. What I think could be done is have almost human-readable commands sent in to the main server, and a set of data sent back to put into one's client.
Turn based, I think. The cycle for sending in commands and receiving a response from the server will be one day, 24 hours.
Being in retrocomputing now is weird for me. I’ve always been into these systems. But when I was a kid, I was dirt poor and an Apple II or C64 was basically worthless in monetary terms - it was all the computer I could afford to have. Now retro is expensive as hell, and I’m still here.
