As winter is finally coming to a close, I have enough natural sunlight to comfortably read printed documents while I program instead of a second screen!!!
Maybe I should make a binder of a bunch of Manpages/documentation printouts

When i started writing #uxn I always thought only having 4 colours was going to be a serious limitation, but with a careful colour palette and some creativity I have always been just fine with only 4 colours.
Here is the celeste spritesheet in uxn form ^__^ (There is no easy way to extract assets from a Pico-8 game so I had to redraw them all)

We at Lenovo are proud to introduce the x225, a new generation in jank
Featuring:
- a cursed BIOS to make your enemies fear you
- a secret 3rd bios chip on the bottom side of the motherboard epoxied in place with wires being held with silkscreen
- a Micro-Displayport jack outputing a analog VGA signal
- a x230 motherboard that has few ammount of parts swaped with there x220 replacements
And so so so much more cursed things hiding underneath
(Unironically so proud of myself for resurecting this)
I was teaching a lesson on Bubble sort today in class, and one of the comments at the bottom of the file was:
> # and there we go, bubblesort :3
And a kid raised and hand and asked "What does the abbreviation :3 represent".... I just sat there for a solid 10 seconds realizing that i accidentally included a :3 in my lesson and just said it was a "Old technical term" to avoid embarrassment on both sides
New Journal entry for this month!

Holy shit the logic analyzer found the issue, Intel Me is doing some handshake with the chipset and its failing.......
I have now manually create a new generic "OEM" Intel ME firmware for it to create a new handshake with the transplanted chipset.....
Fuck you Intel ME, Seriously Fuck you.
Also big thankyou to this hackaday article for a comprehensive guide on this intel me OEM fixing ^__^

AMD usually has great documentation, but this.....
This might be the most useless thing I've seen in a manual for a long time

Added partial e-ink screenupdates support to my fork of uxn-lfb so animations work now!! #uxn
Was playing around with LLVM / QBE and how there Intermediary language is based on Single Static Assignment, and i just realized the seemingly very close relationship between SSA and Catlangs.
I MUST investigate this further! I was plagued with thoughts of stacks trying to fall asleep last night, i know there is gold to be found in this path of thinking :moomin_flower:

@neauoire@merveilles.town i prefer to write my website in markdown as i can show people the who have no idea what html is the un-processed document and they can still perfectly understand what they are seeing
but i still hate markdown with all my heart as its just a confusing mess of contradicting standards :>

@aartaka@merveilles.town it was honestly not as hard as you think! you might need some sandpaper to file down a tiny peice of plastic near the new USB 3.0 port, but that was the only tricky thing!
I had to replace the BIOS chip because i blew it up with 12V by accident while installing coreboot, but if your just doing a motherboard swap it is super easy and worth it!

@skrshe oh I had no idea!! I thought the export option would export the game as a "png cartridge" and not as its spritesheet

@endrift for some of the freelance work I do, i work with old lightning systems. so i use everything between windows 2000 and windows 7
i'm wondering of anybody here could help me out with a #openbsd networking issue?
on my server i am having this weird issue of TCP handshakes randomly failing, but after the handshake completes the connection is completely fine. i dont think its a pf issue as it happens with it both enabled and disabled
it started around 48-hours again and i didnt touch any configuration files during that time
it happens with my IRC bouncer,HTTP(S),and FTP server, with/without TLS
