This seems like a plausible explanation, but I’d maybe expect to see a few giant slugs and caterpillars - these are at least as damaging to crops as snails.

I don’t really think it’s bizarre. Sex crimes and consensual sex are two very different things. The issue here is that some people seem to be facing consequences that last a lifetime for ‘crimes’ that seem pretty insignificant. But if someone raped another person you’d expect them to face consequences even if they are underage when committing the offence.
Yeah, that’s about what my mate says, I’m no musician but he loves the C64 for making electronic music. He lives in a big truck which is also his studio, old computers and amps and synths all running off solar-fed batteries. I understand the C64 had its own compiler too? Yeah there was such diversity of machines back in the day. My first machine was a Tandy TRS-80. And an old ZX81, IIRC that little thing had 1k ram so you had to write tight code. My real love was the BBC B, though, you could do so much with it, learned assembly on it.
Haven’t done any coding now in years. Which is a shame, but mostly these days I don’t really need to. I kinda feel like maybe we’ve lost something though since back then when you really needed to learn to program to get a device to do anything cool. Even though the devices today seem like an exponential improvement. Comparing the phone I’m writing this on to that old ZX81, or even a C64 - just wow. I’m excited to see what comes next!
When you say C64 do you mean the old commadore? Me, I was always an Amiga / Sinclair spectrum guy. But I live with someone who has a working c64 and uses it for music so they are still around.
I think a fair few may be reddit refugees.
Or fashion bow ties from their testicles. . ?
