Right. Yeah I didn't engage my brain on the & initially as i thought it was just a typo. But that should work, seems others on the internet think the same.
I like 'exec startx', but really if someone has physical access, unless you are doing a lot of other security, you can't be safe.
If you switch to the VT with Ctrl-Alt-F1, and hit ctrl-z the process is suspended, but does not complete so it never gets to the exit.
At least that is my suspicion. I'm going to try it when I'm in front of a machine.
Joke's on you. Ctrl-Alt-F1 Ctrl-z.
Vic 20 was my first. I watched my dad struggle with and eventually give up on assembly. Something-something and the microbots. I was fearful of it until I took Assembly at Uni. That 2nd/3rd year class was where the final puzzle piece of how computers work fell in place for me.
My first job was writing assembly tests for a DSP hardware design team. Fell in love. Never looked back.

Me, reads post, feeling it speaking directly to me, but never having put absurdism direclty in front of me, despite my absolute die-hard adherence to it. "Waiting for Godot", huh wonder of the "Godot "(in my head pronounced go-dot) game engine.
Ask wife, Have you ever read "Waiting for go-dot"...
"You mean, waiting for gah-doh"
"Oh-shit.."
I'd heard of the play, with the correct pronunciation, but never put it together in my head.
Anyway, I'm off to find more defined absurdism. Thanks for this so that I could get it out of the way with my wife and not in front of regular humans.

I assume they all share the same Tandy 1000 to IRC with hot-singles in their area.
