Old Computer Challenge Day 6

Switching for a while to #StackMachines was successful, I've compiled and run without any problem uxn and varvara. I like
the software created like that - prepared for different platforms and systems (Linux, OpenBSD and others). After compilation
as verification phase uxn is running wit piano.rom, which works, but without sound (silent piano). I have to check why
SDL library (used by uxnemu) don't generate the sound.

After this small experiment with uxn I've return to my lisp education. I wanted to install SLIME in Emacs, but because
I'm also Emacs absolute beginner, I tried to learn how to setup SLIME by reading web guide. Everything is done using EeePS
and lynx browser, what means that I don't have JavaScript. Unfortunately I had unpleasant surprise - on Melpa in section
"How to setup Melpa", I had seen message "This site requires JavaScript". Luckily I found answer on Stack Overflow.

So now I have Emacs with Slime, both Common Lisp and SBCL and high determination to learn. And some free time from Monday,
will be next challenge #TwoHoursLispPerDay

Old habits and new paths.

Before my activity in Old Computer Challenge, I used mostly Linux (Debian), vi/vim, bash/zsh, python and as much as possible
terminal environment. I also had some installation of FreeBSD (Lenovo) and NetBSD (this EeePC), just to try BSD at all.
I  never installed OpenBSD. In the end of OCC, I use OenBSD, I've started using Emacs and try to learn Lisp (once again).
My migration from vim to emacs was caused by need to write normal text for Gopher, not program or script, and I must
confirm, vi is fantastic editor for sysadmin, but terrific for standard text. I'm also  surprised by OpenBSD, I always
thought, that it is dedicated mostly to security topics and bogus brother of FreeBSD and NetBSD. Now I've change my mind.

Definitely OCC developed me significantly.
