Title: Forum for Raspberry PI BASIC coders
Post by: Tomaaz on April 10, 2019, 03:26:41 PM
John has started another forum. This time it's dedicated for people who code in BASIC on Raspberry PI.

https://raspberrybasic.org/forum

Myself, I have never considered getting Raspberry Pi. I just don't get it what's so great about it. I know several people who have it, but they never use it for anything. It's just a toy, a gadget you buy and after a couple of days put in your cupboard.

This is just a simple info about the new forum. Plus my opinion about Raspberry Pi. Other people can do/think whathever they want as long as they don't expect me to do/think what they do/think.

Tomaaz,

Why not write a book on how to think like you so we don't spend the rest of our lives being stupid?

I know. My second post was a reply to that, because I can't see a reason for reacting the way he did. I just wanted to spread a word about his new forum. Maybe I shouldn't have included my opinion about Raspberry Pi, but to be honest - why? Raspberry Pi is a reason why I've stopped buying paper Linux magazines. To many pages dedicated to something I have no interest to use at all. And I really know several people who have PIs, but don't use them at all.

No I do not. Didn't I just say that? I used to buy them, but I stopped years ago. And the main reason was Raspberry Pi. Well, maybe I'm an old school guy, but I like to read paper magazines. The problem is that majority of more advanced ones don't exist anymore and what's left is mainly "computer for seniors" or "what should I buy" stuff. Younger generations have moved to the web. So have I.

I toyed with it for a bit.
Installed Ubuntu and compiled my UbxBasic on it but lost interest.
It seems it's focus is mostly for hardware projects??

ALLBasicALLmightyJohnTHeRpi suggestion:

Buy yourself a Raspberry Pi and join their forum. They are a 1/4 million strong.
