i found out that vintage computers hold very little interest to me unless i can execute premade programs on them, and easily. here is why
that's how i was when i was 12-16, when i did the massive bulk of what little learning about coding i've done
man, it's so easy to fall into obsessions with this shit. I wanted these machines for reasons I didn't fully examine, and now that I have had them for a while I accept the cold reality of what they Are.
i have 1000 roms to play on my real MSX but flipping through them takes like over a minute each time. i spent most of my time last night trying to figure out what i was loading, trying to load it, having it fail, etc
why am i writing all this
because i keep biting off more than I can chew and I see other people doing it too and it's making me and them miserable
