Since it&#39;s just a function call it can be put wherever to build something that doesn&#39;t have to deal with the nuts and bolts when you&#39;re being creative.<br/><br/>So in Arco, dialogue:line(&#34;tizo&#34;, &#34;yo&#34;) makes the character tizo say yo, and waits for player input before continuing the script. Extra nice that prompts can just return whatever was picked. It can take as many frames as it needs and the rest of the game can keep in trucking. <br/><br/>Not as elegant perhaps when you drill down inside I guess, but it&#39;s explicit, so you get to say when interruptions can happen, and once you&#39;re in a coroutine anything using that functionality is just a normal function call. 2026-03-22T05:16:14Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqstwsntgr4egmnesgtm4kr3m9unnfvg3kzns3tt24p6lzzrvpu5rfqzyp303ye8yh622t68ws7chvxj69p5syfu00rrvjwqjr88xf7anxcv5eamjtc In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsw3uka39sjsw484szxfhfu27cf5sd662xm8q0x435jqnnu42g7ajqcvtxrm'>nevent1q…txrm</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>any language with coroutines becomes very natural for this too. Eg our dialogue system has single scripts which wait for responses (no function boundaries) and this was extremely writer friendly.<br/><br/>I wonder about the similarities and differences vs catlangs<br/><br/>You can&#39;t concatenate them in most languages but you can just call them one after the other (or wrap them in a function which does that) 2026-03-20T21:43:53Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsrdde6pyzn37zxt864vthgkdlkxfmruc37uyctmqh7ckxzy7e4fvczyp303ye8yh622t68ws7chvxj69p5syfu00rrvjwqjr88xf7anxcv5es2hzj In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsre9zfg3dfdjnn27acgy4gvhkq8j9jxf44nseuhj54yaruym9g69s8hfw8a'>nevent1q…fw8a</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>fwiw I was working on a &#34;bespoke artisanal home baked ML&#34; framework (on top of opengl so it&#39;d run on non nv hardware etc etc) but the llm craze totally nuked any motivation on that.<br/><br/>Completely agree on the repulsiveness, basically. 2026-01-12T22:08:31Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs0ypv9fknvre8gu5rcwsnnke6vruc3xzakwm9826vyq3e09ny85gqzyp303ye8yh622t68ws7chvxj69p5syfu00rrvjwqjr88xf7anxcv599pmyt In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqspyxh4lnjm3zcu55g372nkw0kklcdeajwsyy7xs70zm95q567nzpqlj9xwn'>nevent1q…9xwn</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>all good haha.

Most of the bare metal &#34;this system couldn&#39;t run linux&#34; text handling I&#39;ve seen bakes in a lot of assumptions (eg no RTL), and many of those systems wouldn&#39;t have enough memory for much of a wide coverage font. Even as 1bit, 16x16 (pretty much required for cjk) is two MiB of storage just for the bmp characters. So I guess add external memory and page from it or something. If you know what kind of characters you&#39;re expecting that might change ofc and maybe you&#39;re fine with fixed width left to right layout.<br/><br/>The permacomputing crowd have probably scratched at this somewhat. <span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a itemprop="url" href="/npub1z8rjwhwhg8dna3cq0uz6hded2rdqlegj7lrvcs7s0zd56yj9fdasfgmrq6" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1"><span>Devine Lu Linvegan</span> (<span class="italic">npub1z8r…mrq6</span>)</a></span> <span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a itemprop="url" href="/npub1z2cvkdv4e89xpe5v6rl93vud3fm4mxxygcr3s6xfxrf52u4k34gs8tlaft" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1"><span>R E K T A N G L E</span> (<span class="italic">npub1z2c…laft</span>)</a></span> do you know of any text editors for bare metal or anyone that would? 2025-09-25T22:32:38Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs2xd8vxkd0awx8jks233q95qdfl6kmf4nkqdwqj3ehlsgjty36acczyp303ye8yh622t68ws7chvxj69p5syfu00rrvjwqjr88xf7anxcv5ha4jt0 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsdux9e7ngt3hfngsllkjjlsvg24audc2fjv5698jrchpxxq0z7wqce9xcfq'>nevent1q…xcfq</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>queued for Tuesday work.
