Title: Not really new, but...
Post by: mapar007 on October 17, 2009, 05:44:28 am
Hi guys, I've been registered for some time on this site, but 1 post isn't really much... I've been in the calculator community for a few years now, mainly on UTI.

I will be 15 on november 17th, 2009. I live in Belgium, and I study Latin and math in what you'd call high school in the US.

I'm quasi-fluent in z80 ASM, but that doesn't mean I'm 1337, since I haven't accomplished anything notable yet. I know Java, some C and a little bit of C++. It's been more than a year that I've touched TI-BASIC, though.

I'm a bit into randomness as of now: occasional reverse-engineering, small programs, unfinished projects (the 99% share), etc. You get it.

EDIT: I noticed this forum is about music as well: I'm a renaissance music freak (about 1400-1650 is my style), and I play the recorder & the oboe.

EDIT2: And please don't offer me peanuts, I'm allergic..  ;D

Hi and welcome here ^^

I haven't really got into renaisance music, altough I do like some medieval stuff and also some metal medieval-ish stuff. Besides that I mostly listen to (and create) electronic music, though. One thing is that pretty much all music I like, despite living in North America, is european.


Besides that I tried to learn ASM 3 times in the 8 years I've been in the TI community but I just wouldn't get it so I stuck with TI-BASIC ever since :(. Did a lot of games, altough not as much in the past few years

Welcome to Omnimaga Mapar ;D

I think that patch to get around the lock-out-thingy is fairly notable :P

Mhmm what do you mean O.o, I must have missed something somewhere in the TI community x.x

He released this (http://www.ticalc.org/archives/files/fileinfo/418/41803.html) a few months ago.  It's surprising that it hasn't been well-publicized though, since I think the PTT thing has caused a bunch of people problems.

Oooh yeah now I remember. Maybe it wasn't because many people don't support cheating in tests, which is what this utility might be used the most for. But it's necessary, as some teachers won't revert back the PTT mode enabling after tests, leaving students with their calc locked and losing their precious programs if no one has a link cable

Thanks all, I'll see which project I'll be tackling next, 'cause I'm doing a software project at school as well, and I don't have all that much time...

@simplethinker: Little patches for small things are not worthy of being screamed all over the community.  ;D I'm already glad it's the first thing you get when you search google for "PTT patch" and that some people linked to it on UTI.

Well, since you didn't want the peanuts I usually give out, I was thinking that I could at least give your ego a little boost, but you kinda ruined that too ;D
