This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Man, makes me want to go back and play some Uplink. Shit's fire!

If you feel like a more modern game, I really like https://store.steampowered.com/app/605230/Grey_Hack/

It has its own scripting engine, so you can write in-game programs to do exploits and things. It’s not super complex, but you do need to actually write code to play it well, but I really enjoy it

The old school vibe is a feature in Uplink. It's some proper hack the planet shit

Of course, I love Uplink, my suggestion wasn't meant to bring it down, just to provide a recco for a spiritual successor to scratch that itch

That looks awesome! I haven’t dabbled in programming since BASIC—how would I be at this game? Would it hold my hand at first? I’ve done a little bit of machine code(anssembly? The one where you only use numbers) and C++, but it’s been like 20 years.
