Is dinner defined as the meal eaten before prime time television in the early evening?

Yes. It could be defined as a meal before prime time TV,
and also in the afternoon.

Do you believe in the adage, breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince, and dine like a pauper?

my 1974 version tube computer did not have enough memory to program and run "pong"
do you believe that it took almost 6 hours to program the binary code for "pong" into my first solid state computer??
