But imagine if they had Cow, imagine if they had. Atari would have beaten the shit out of the PlayStation. Because, in the words of the Techcrunch blogger, clearly building a Video Game console that focuses on Video Games is old-fashioned and short-sighted.
[](/badgerscratch)I heard about what Google did with Gmail the other day for April fools, it was kind of a mess.

[](/vinylsleepless)I dunno, I'm kind of just lost as to what to do at the moment. I tried taking an accounting class this semester, and that's not really for me I think. Other than that, it's been getting some required stuff out of the way. I think I'm gonna try taking an engineering class over the summer. It's taken me way too long to realize I'd probably enjoy that more than computer science and that I should of gone for that instead of computer science to begin with.
[](/4h) Yeah, seems like they've just been sticking things together with super glue or something, eheh. I'm a fan of languages like Opa that try to bring everything together, even if it's still using HTML/CSS/JS.
[](/twidashkiss) Hah, that's rich.
That all sounds rather convoluted and silly. Also the regeneration thing already sounds like kind of a weak plot point, straining it even more probably wasn't a good idea. I'm also not sure who River is, heh. [](/sp) [](/readingdash) Assembly is cool. I kinda didn't pay close enough attention in the class I took on it though so I don't remember much.
I wonder what assembler you'll use? Mine used MASM, but I've since found NASM, which is pretty cool too. MASM is some Microsoft assembler I think (I still don't know if it's actually used for anything today other than classes like that), NASM is the most popular one for Linux but it seems to have versions of Mac and Windows too.
Also, if you ever get bored you can try following these series of videos. It shows the basic, non-theoretical things you have to do to make super basic bootloaders with NASM. [](/sp) [](/rainbowlikes-r) Yeah, I saw that video. It looks like a pretty cool game.
The concept for it made sense back before the internet was as big a thing as it is now, and the main way you got all your game news was through magazines, word of moth, or adds in a game store. But now it is all kinda superfluous that they hold a huge convention so we can see shit like this get announced that no one that's watching it cares about anyway.
[](/rdsneak) I'm assuming he was a playable character in the first Payday? [](/sp) [](/xx11) Hah! That's a crazy amount of ordinance. Quite a few missile pods, and that gun is gigantic. And why do you need good weather for that? Doing it outside with spraypaint? Heh.
Oh wow, that's pretty cool. Didn't know people made original gundams like that. [](/sp) [](/xx01) I see. Yeah, that sounds boring. Probably basically an intro to programming class, eh? That's what Python is often used for, since other languages confuse newcomers too much due to their more complicated syntax.
You could always resort to books or online tutorials and documentation to learn it. I'm sure there's a lot. Python is quite popular, and since it's often used in education there's a huge number of tutorials and whatnot. Also, Reddit is written in it, so you could just read its source, heh.
Also, I recommend PyCharm as the IDE of choice to use for it. It's a JetBrains IDE, they make a lot of them. They're all similar and good. And they all have free versions that work well. They also have an educational edition. It seems kinda cool... but I've never used it and don't know anything about it, I just found it.
