Weaknesses of AI image generation
The biggest flaw in AI image generation software is that it completely ignores the basics and just starts coloring the picture itself.

A little #BASIC routine to create a 'psicodelic organ', according to #microhobby magazine
@dosnostalgic I hope Bill Gates has rescinded his open letter to hobbyists so that he doesn't come after me for having the source code for Microsoft Altair Basic https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/An_Open_Letter_to_Hobbyists

This VM is running with a NATted NIC, and legacy DOS TCP/IP LANMAN drivers do not display the DHCP info - So I can't see what IP address the VM is getting, and Trumpet Winsock needs that information. Handily, there is a DHCP.PRM binary file that gets created with the info in it, but there's no actual user tool as part of LANMAN to read it. So... Using only what I have on this VM, I write my own parser!
