ebiguy Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 Just curious to know who is LaResistance. This is a French sentence. Does it mean a French guy is involved in this cartridge ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrathchild Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 (edited) Surely it would need to be well under that of an AVGCart as that seems to provide more features? [Edit] that's not to say it is redundant as of course they can be used for commercial production runs etc. Edited February 13, 2020 by Wrathchild Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candle Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 this is early adoption of cartridge case Sikor made - regardless of failing to provide basic documentation about them fortunatly Curt Vendel came to the rescue with original docs, and LaResistance delivered psychical cases for me to test fit pcb "wywal to" means "remove this" and i was reffereing to certain features this case has - pretty much waste of space, but hey - at least it is avaliable this was done as non profit project, as previous sic! cartridge was one can build it by oneselve, but this is not an open source project, regardles of the fact that all production files will be released into PD 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebiguy Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 22 hours ago, candle said: thank god noone from tristesse wasn't involved Right. Private joke for people understanding French but google translate is here for others I understand that LaResistance (should be La Résistance in good French) is the idea that - the 8bit resists against all the new computers/game console/smart phone. - the programming is very close to hardware where each single byte is important compared to Windows program needing at least 100MB to do something useful. - the computer is still fun after 40 years and we (including you of course) can still deliver value and innovation on this small platform. Feel free to contribute to this list if I missed something! BTW, do you speak French (even a little)? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sikor Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 (edited) Non, je ne parle pas français. J'avais les bases de la langue au lycée, mais c'était il y a longtemps ... Unfortunately - second sentence i must translate by google, i don't remember many words. I admire the numerals in French - for example, 1936, if I remember correctly 1000 + 9 * 100 +36?

ebiguy Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 (edited) I am sorry if I make this thread derail. But that is what makes this forum so cool. You learn day after day some small details on other guys. 50 minutes ago, Sikor said: Non, je ne parle pas français. J'avais les bases de la langue au lycée, mais c'était il y a longtemps ... This is absolutely perfect. So I understand that this is just humility. 32 minutes ago, skr said: Completely Off Topic Believe me if I tell you I had problem breathing while watching this video as I was so laughing with no break! Thank you very much for this very funny video. But I guess it is more funny for French people. Back to the topic. Thank you to all of you for bringing new hardware/software years after years.

abbotkinneydude Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 (edited) We are actually quite a few French nationals on those boards. Ebiguy, myself, Atari Frog, Fantomas, Rhod, Marsupilami, Atarimania and I imagine a few more in the 2600 forum as well as the console was a hit in my home country. There's also a brand new French speaking forum devoted to the Atari 8-bit platform on facebook. It's headed by Jean-Marc Lebourg of Funlight Software who coded Danse Macabre for the A8 in the eighties (only as a prototype, the program didn't come out). https://www.facebook.com/groups/957320864626817/ BTW- For the curious, there's plenty of French software on the A8, it's not just well known. http://www.atarimania.com/list_games_atari-400-800-xl-xe-p_total-page-step-country_155-1-200-7_8_G.html The special edition (1995) of FREE is a standout: http://www.atarimania.com/game-atari-400-800-xl-xe-free-funny-risky-evil-escape_26018.html Edited February 15, 2020 by abbotkinneydude Added Atarimania 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
