I've had some of the most fun I've had in a long time just writing a calculator for Risc OS in pure ARM assembly. Maybe I've just been aiming too high?

In the 2000s once talked my mom into getting me an old Mac Centris 610 from eBay. I attempted some C programming, but I had the most success reencoding MP3s from the Final Fantasy 8 OST and copying them over to the Mac on floppies lol
