@cabel@social.panic.com this is ENTIRELY unrelated but I do have to wonder where and how the diamond shape became this ubiquidous icon for "go here." like once you notice it you start seeing it come up everywhere... at first I thought it was exclusive to Control (2019) but it just Keeps Appearing

@cabel@social.panic.com #Alt4You Gameplay from Lego Batman: Batman takes something from a stuffed bear and plugs it into a computer. Subtitle: Red Hood One put something in this bear, but what? Let's analyze it. On the computer monitor appears two screens of what looks suspiciously like Commodore BASIC, followed by a banner that reads: BAT BASIC v19.89 Video cuts to a Commodore 64 emulation, where the above program listing is typed in and run. It brings up a small yellow Batman logo, which bounces around the screen.

@cabel@social.panic.com It's too long to fit in a post, but in case anyone wants to try out the code (I did!), it's in the alt-text of the image below. Tested and verified in the Denise C64 emulator.

@cabel@social.panic.com OMG, amazing find! If anyone wants to quickly try it themselves, copy the code here: https://gist.github.com/waxpancake/c6b287e725347cc6981a87bb8fdd11ea And use the menu in the bottom-right of this excellent browser-based C64 emulator to paste text from clipboard, and hit enter to run it! https://ty64.krissz.hu/

@cabel@social.panic.com lmfao, i wonder if this is planned like: here are 2 storypoints to implement this or if a dev thought: "lets have some fun. hardly anyone will ever know, regarding the target group"

@muddle@infosec.exchange 2026-06-08 04:45
@cabel@social.panic.com I did. I only caught a quick glimpse of it and thought it was going to cycle the border colours (similar memory area) but then noticed the data and looping and realised it was going to be a sprite animation.. #A900

@cabel@social.panic.com As someone who has transcribed many 8-bit BASIC programs from one platform to another, it is tragic how a screen full of POKEs is correctly interpreted as C64. Every other platform had an actual BASIC that you could do things with!

@pheraph@mastodon.social 2026-06-08 05:11
@cabel@social.panic.com @Gargron@mastodon.social I love everything about it. Especially the fact that you had to type the code in by hand, just like we used to have to do with the listings in computer magazines back in the day.
