oh hey that's fun. this game has two layers of copy protection! if I hack the "check weird sector" code to always return 0 (for found-it), it tells me "Diskette/version out of phase"
they call the copy protection on two different sectors, and throw the out-of-phase error if they give the same result, I think
oh hello copy protection, fancy meeting you here

the problem with being "the floppy person" is that every decade or so you have to write some code to read FAT12 tables. and every time you wonder if it's worth it
everyone is talking about the 2038 apocalypse but not enough people are talking about the 2108 apocalypse when the DOS FAT format runs out of years

oh dear. the SDK for this microcontroller is hosted on a git server I'm getting 116kb/s from.
I'm currently 30mb in, which is 0% of the total.
yay I'm finally up to 1%!
at 90mb.
this is gonna take a WHILE

I didn't make this video, but I should have: Making a floppy disk from scratch!

there should be 5v alkaline batteries
I need to make a note to stop trying to stuff GUI applications in docker containers.
it can be done, sure, but it's never worth the trouble
