Other passengers sit nearby, including a person with skis and a large backpack. The scene feels quietly surreal within an everyday public transport setting.

**ALT-tekst (norsk):** Skjermbilde av en chat i mørk modus. Øverst vises brukerens melding: «Vibe code med meg. Skriv et program i BASIC som skriver “bananflesk” på skjermen hvert 30 sekund». Under følger et lengre svar som forklarer at det finnes mange BASIC-dialekter. Svaret inneholder to kodeblokker: én med et enkelt BASIC-program som bruker `PRINT "bananflesk"`, `SLEEP 30` og `GOTO 10`, og en annen som viser en alternativ løsning med `TIMER` og en løkke. Teksten beskriver programmet humoristisk som et «bananflesk-orakel» og avsluttes med en metafor om et livslangt drypp av bananflesk som en fruktig metronom.
