Hey @YouTube I would pay an extra $10/month on top of YouTube Premium to disable shorts. I don't want to see another short ever again. Please let me toggle them off.

Definitely bringing the batting average down in this grouping, but I'll be part of a great conversation about Reverse Engineering this coming Saturday at @OpenSauceLive! The video should also go up shortly after on sauceplus.com if you're not there.

Watch me add a BEEP instruction to MSBASIC and use it to make some very rudimentary music.

Ben Eater Vs. Microsoft BASIC

Reverse engineering Microsoft BASIC Watch me poke around the MSBASIC assembly source to add a custom PRINTLCD instruction. Also, does anyone watch long-form videos on this platform?

I don't know what payoneer is, but I am also awaiting payment from my last video from @Patreon. It took 6 days to get any response from @PatreonSupport and it was from someone who is not empowered to help me. My only options seem to be: 1. Not get paid and be mad 2. Not get paid

Here's a puzzler: I was just at @OpenSauceLive this weekend (which was an absolute blast, btw) and someone was having trouble getting one of the eyes to blink on his badge. What do you suppose he did wrong?

I made it up in time to see a small red light rising from the horizon. A few minutes later I even saw the landing burn on the way down! Of course during the launch, my phone refused to focus on anything but the bugs on the windscreen. The sunset was nice though.
