Воспоминания оMillenium 2OOZ
Sinus
"Millennium was, Millennium is, Millennium cannot but
there is!" - as you may have guessed, today our goal is Millennium
2OOZ
Having bought a ticket, I went to a nearby store, hoping for
Use the remaining money to buy something to eat (or sleep ;).
There was only enough for 2 beer and a half (one Lida (dark),
another native Grodno) and a loaf of bread.
Entering the train, I saw a familiar Tolkienist girl... Beer
it didn’t turn out to be superfluous, and among measured conversations and other things the road
(like beer ;) flew by unnoticed. Upon arrival in Minsk we
bought tickets back (luckily both were leaving in two days) and
scattered about their business, she went off to another run through the woods with
wooden swords,hobbits and other creatures of the brain
Tolkien, and I, accordingly, went to the nearest store for beer.
Blaster (or as it is popularly called - Plaster) woke up on
surprisingly quickly (in past years I could sit outside the door for hours
;), and cursing me with a terrible attack (that they say I interfered with him
sleep), still didn’t go back to bed ;)
Having laid out the gear, I asked Blaster where the Linoleum would be.
“I thought you knew,” he replied.
Hmmm... Let's go to the Internet...
So, TTX Goals:
Вышли из метро. "Смотри, там Эдик",- сказал Бластер. Он
оказался прав. Известный писатель демок на бейсике, Ed/V-пом
подошел к нам. Сам он ждал Seth'а/Ellipse
Сета мы ждали еще минут 2О. А затем дружной толпой
отправиились на party place.
Около местаthere was already a small crowd of people waiting for the party,
among them were Breeze/Fishbone, Fatal Snipe, D'Art from Fenomen, and
KVA/E-Mage. Then Paul Paulov and the most famous joined
stager of Belarus DjPsych ;)
After drinking beer, Breez really wanted to take a leak,
a consequence of which he was more eager to party than others ;)
We talked about this and that. As I expected, people finally
I've written off. Minsk ex-spectrumists have few real
Spectrum that is (I wonder who they sold it (Spectrum) to-
everyone had it before). Fatal was also affected by the wave
descriptions.
But Breeze still broke into the party place, and behind him
the rest of the crowd of people.
The “dugout” (or, as Breeze later put it, “drainage”) turned out to be
a real bomb shelter, converted into a disco
club Several massive doors, longpassages and staircases
spans - here I am at the party place itself.
Then some guy came up to me...
It is interesting that neither in the past nor in any other
I didn't see it on the linoleum.
(As it turned out later, he was close to 99%visitors with the same
question ;)
Quite spacious room, with good acoustics,
a screen suspended above the stage, a bunch of computers and a projector,
giving an amazing green color... The projector really loved
green, and did not recognize other colors.
Glitches appeared quickly - by 11:00 the party had not started. And by 11:20
it didn't start either. And even by 11:00 it had not yet flown.
It’s good if by 12:00 the party has started...
The first day was dedicated to music, music and more music. Then
that there was something else there, I remember faintly, because the muse
It took probably 90% of the time.
In addition to the muse, I remember some kind of piss gfx competition (in
emerald green) and invitation- compo (launched
only one invitashka, as you guessed it, in green ;)
ButLet's move on to the main thing - music.
There was a lot of music... No, more. There was a LOT of music!!!
Of course, I understand everything, there are difficulties with the preselect (well,
if DjPsych takes on the preselection, then there will only be one left
“sausage,” said one of the organizers), but still ears
You should feel sorry for the visitors!
The music was generally good, which made voting difficult, so
how the work was approximately equal. It could not have happened, of course, without
jokes...
During the break between music, Seth told a sentimental
a story about some kind of pussy muzaker (Manwe maybe (?)),
to whom, to the music of Midnight (the Ueformal newspaper was published in his
time) a running spektrumist appears in shorts and with
Spectrum under his arm, which raises his knees high to the beat
music. And truly, as soon as Midnight's muzak started playing, I choked
from laughter, as my imagination painted an even more colorful
picture - the spektrumist was a little overweight, in a white T-shirt and
white shorts with red stripes.
And at this time, a hidden-party-on-party began quietly.
I don’t know who decided to put it there, but by the afternoon
some people were in a state of inability to stand... And some
literally (just remember Fatal sleeping right at the party).
During the next break, I went to look for Blaster. He was sitting at
the farthest table and with all his appearance showed - “don’t come near,
I'll kill you." “Is he drunk?” Ed asked. “I think so,” said
I. "Well then everything is clear..."
In general, it was complete crap. You guessed it, green
colors ;)
I waited impatiently for these music to end... Iwaited!!!
In general, the end, first day is over. People have sobered up a little,
and accordingly gathered for a hidden party.
Going out into the street, I realized that my desire to go to the hidden
not a trace remained - few people gathered, there was no money, there was
It was cold and a light rain was beginning to fall. Yes and Blaster
sobered up to such an extent that he himself suggested not to go to this
Hidden party, and go home. To which I didn’t think twice
agreed (I almost wrote “saved” ;)
That's how the first day of the party ended... Night was falling...
Three people are sitting at the Plaster in a safe house... They are sitting, and not
can finish the fucking O.5 liters of Alivaria Strong beer - NOT
NEVER TAKE THIS BEER!!!! TOTAL SUCKS!!!!
Next, we sent Pasha Pavlov not e-soap three Zx-Demos, two for
BASIC, one Xas-saX.
Waking up early in the morning, the first thing I did was warm up pretty much
frozen socks. After connecting my broom to the blaster
Dude, I started rewriting all sorts of useful things...
Time X was approaching... Having collected my belongings (from the party, I decided to go
straight to the station), I got dressed and pushed Blaster...
The blaster promised to come over later... What else could you expect from
a man who played “Gothic” (a toy like that on the petset),
probably until 5 am.
I got to the party place without incident, and in addition to
goodmood. Looking around I was a little scared that
I was late - there were almost no people. However, there was concern
in vain, and the crowd soon increased. But still not like that
quantity as on the previous day. (apparently someone's music is still
finished the channel ;)
Actually, on the second day the most interesting thing remained -
Spec's graphics, amazing muse and of course DEMOS!!!!
Oh, by the way, they brought a new projector, which at least has flowers
everything was fine, it was still extremely buggy (and where are they
do they buy such projectors?) and showed only in one resolution -
8OOxbOO.
Competitions are held peacefully and quietly... Only the most
persistent, for whom even the sound of ayugrika is not scary ;) Actually,
the atmosphere was somehow friendlier. Somewhere closer to
Blaster approached the demos. And then Specter/OV came down, from
which I learned several interesting features of life
Minsk spektrumists. This is how you would pause your program? halt-ami?

Specter said that in Zx-Element'2 the pause looks like this: ld hl,O:
ld de,O: ld bc,#ffff: ldir
And what a powerful keyboard survey he has! Almost the same
The code is present twice. But the fact is that the first piece
It was buggy and did not poll the "O" button. Then Wolf, who is not looking
simple ways, I made another questionnaire that asked
only "O" ;)
And about the beginning of Freeman's coding life? Once upon a time there lived Freeman, and
he was independent, since nothing depended on him ;) And
he made some kind of newspaper on his byte, which was seen only
his close friends. One day a newspaper came from Specter, but
his scorpion(?) she did not earn. And the whole point was that
Freeman switched pages not by #7ffd or even by #fd, but...
on 1 (first) port! When Freeman was asked why 1,
then he replied that it didn’t roll on the O-th port, but on the 1st
it worked. He didn't look any further.It's amazing how fast
Freeman has developed into one of the coolest coders on zx.
Then the conversation turned to newspapers, I naturally remembered TargeT,
and Specter told me a top-secret theory about news writing.
But I will reveal it to you, in the hope that a stream of new ones will soon appear.
newspapers. So, we took our hand and looked carefully at the palm...
We turn our gaze to the fingers and carefully look at which of them
there may be news... Oh! Appeared! Now let's start it
pull it out slowly ;)
Meanwhile, the most interesting part began - the demos. Gone with
with friendly laughter our demos in BASIC, then xas-sax flew by and
The pussy demos started. Surprisingly, the demos were very
not bad. The guys from Gomel(?) once again proved that

A little joke came out with my pussy demo - it’s quite
unclear ending, and I spent about five minutes explaining to the organizers that
stop tormenting people with this effect that I am the author of this de(r)ma, and
We need to turn this de(r)mo off.The party came to an end... For about half an hour I ran between
organizers trying to write down work from linoleum onto a CD. C
I'm heartbroken that all the works (except for Spekov's :( were recorded.
I went to the station. I bought a chuburek with my last money and
bottle of beer, and began to wait for the train and a familiar Tolkienist... She
I arrived 3 minutes before the train departed - what about these women?
take it ;) and we went home. The end.
That's it, I finally wrote this. I agree, this is not enough
Moreover, it is not on time. Maybe I'm a bad reporter
maybe it was necessary to take the advice of the Specter, or maybe
maybe this Millennium was such that there was nothing special to write about...
