What about if I submit questions in Japanese? Your fans would love to hear about your tools!

Great! Will track it and see if I can get some feedback from the other folks ..

For tooling, the OSDK:
osdk.org
Runs great under Wine, btw - I have a vim+Makefile style rig for my Oric projects, which uses Wine to run the OSDK tools .. not sure if anyone has done a native Linux port but its not really necessary ..

And don’t forget to check out some of the amazing new titles for the Oric, which was a tragically underlooked platform in the day, but these days has even been a constant winner of the 10-line BASIC Programming competition…

There are a number of Oric emulators out there - J’Oric and Oricutron. I also use Linux so Oricutron is my recommendation for you:
github.com/pete-gordon/...
Join us on the defence-force.org forums if you have any meatier questions, we are quite active these days especially with the LOCI device..

There are a lot of competent hackers in the Oric scene - I encourage you to include us in your future plans as you see fit. We can probably do most of the heavy lifting as required .. note that there are other alternative ROM’s available for Oric as well, such as dflat:
github.com/6502Nerd/dflat
github.com/6502Nerd/dflat
GitHub - 6502Nerd/dflat: dflat is a BASIC-like language for 8-bit micros and retro computers running on 6502 and 65c02

We recently got the LOCI “i/o expansion” accessory for the Oric functioning and shipping in decent quantities too, which might give us more RAM to play with ..

The ORIC BASIC ROM is reverse engineered and available here - not sure if someone has made a reproducible source project from it, but there are many other things going on for Oric that might be beneficial for the effort of porting…

The expectation that there will be good human beings selected from America’s ruling classes is entirely fallacious. America got in this state because Americans have been willfully ruled by war criminals for decades. No ‘good men’ can be found in such circumstances.

If the tools are there but the parent doesn’t use them, then the legislation banning bad parenting can simply address it.
It only takes a few cases making the news and lazy parents will catch up.
But you seem to want corporate overlords, not parents and families empowered by better tools…

Nonsense. You can’t say this with any degree of certainty.
Of course people use features that get built in to their devices. This is like saying “people won’t use email if it’s included on a phone”…
Give parents the ability to monitor their kids activities and they’ll use it.

It’s more like, OS vendors need to prioritize giving parents the tools they need to be better parents, such as the ability to define a device as a child’s device, observe the devices screen, and so on.
But of course OS vendors are too busy turning their devices into ad machines…

Bonus point if your engine has a GUI though, of course…
