Cay-Eric Schimanski<a href="https://mastodon.social/@truls46" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@truls46</a> In the GDR I could listen to <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/BASICODE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BASICODE</a> broadcasts - but my humble Z1013 did not support it, so I was a bit jealous of KC 85/x owner, who were able to record the sounds and load the programs into their machines. Although, since the broadcasts were introduced with a short description of the software, I knew I did not miss much ;)<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/retrocomputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#retrocomputing</a>

SimonI've been rummaging in the bit of my brain labelled "home computing nostalgia" and written up some memories of early 1980s computers and the software that came to you through your transistor radio. <a href="https://newslttrs.com/yes-in-the-1980s-we-downloaded-games-from-the-radio/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://newslttrs.com/yes-in-the-1980s-we-downloaded-games-from-the-radio/</a><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/RetroComputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RetroComputing</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Basicode" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Basicode</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Nostalgia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Nostalgia</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Geek" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Geek</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Nerd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Nerd</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/1980s" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#1980s</a>

stirz ✅<a href="https://oldbytes.space/@Wintermute_BBS" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@Wintermute_BBS</a> I recall an article about <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/BASICODE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BASICODE</a> for the <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/commodore" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#commodore</a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/C64" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#C64</a> published Back in the 80s. There were such things as BASICODE radio broadcasts which you could record to tape and then load into your homecomputer. What completely blew my mind were thin plastic records (as in "record player") which were added as supplements to magazines - required you to connect the record player to the tape port. I guess that's peak geekdom.
