Emacs is so bad

It has zero intuitive key bindings.

Also i swear that ctrl/tab/shift/alt should be kinda mapped opposite. This editor should be used only with Space-cadet keyboard from 70,80....

Seriously - learning 6502 assembly is easier than to graap those INSANELY bad keyboard layout.

Early versions (3?) could fit an amazing editor, assembler, compiler, debugger and whole IDE in just 120kb(!!!) of disk space.

Vim looks pathetic in comparison to it...

C is the most portable language on the planet.

Literally every single cpu/mcu architecture from the past 40 years supports it.

There are hundreds of such architectures and CPU/MCU types. (x86 is just SINGLE type from maaaaany).

Voyager runs on assembly. only 10 instructions. Very simple and real RISC processor

By simply measuring radio data they measured the size of solar system and density around it. super important subject for future Interstellar travel. same with temperature and radiation levels

Wow. Only 10 instruction set? Looks like father of RISC cpu design

Moat portable OS in the history of computing. It supports like 20 more architectures than Linux, including VAX 780 from 1979(!!!) that can run it out of the box - same source codeBASE as in x86 or ARM etc.

300 baud will not work. arp/tcp/ip have too much overhead even with small MTU.

slip/plip/ppp is workable from 1200 baud up.

1. Make standalone Windows version 2. Make screenshots in English instead of Italian(?)

Then I would use it instead of mobaxterm hehe
