I’ve been working on synthesizers for the GBA and rp2040 the past couple years, and I’ve made some fast oscillators.

Raspberry provide an example I2S output PIO program.

The raspberry pi 3 doesn’t have the hardware crypto extensions for aarch64, at least going by cpuinfo.

I’m setting up an old Dell box (2011-era tech).

It’s another post about our thinkpad :).

There’s this collection of tales about people who use static site generators.

The options for 32-bit x86 distributions have been declining a little bit.

NetBSD 10.0 is out!!

LÖVE (which I will write as love because my keyboard doesn’t have an Ö) is a neat program that’s mostly intended for writing games with lua.

This has been an addition we’ve wanted for a long while.

In the world of the digital, many of us have been tricked into thinking that something only needs to be said once.

nixGL is a tool that’s useful for people who use Nix on distributions that aren’t NixOS.

Gentoo’s process for removing packages from the main gentoo package repository is designed to make me aware of it and give me time to react, and I really appreciate that.

Little Sound DJ (LSDJ) is a music tracker for the original gameboy / gameboy color.

This is useful for running cloud-init VMs locally, particularly if the image doesn’t have sudo or some other privilege escalation tool.

Scrollbars.

I’m not a core Gentoo dev, but this is my understanding of what the stability indicators mean, having used Gentoo for about a year now.

Sometimes when we’re talking, we want ephemerality.

Haskell has a package database called Hackage.

this is a lua script that generates a nodejs cache from a package-lock.json. why is this useful?

Simple thing, writing so we can find it again.

I’m not sure if something changed with the way Nix’s rust build system works in 23.05, but I’m pretty sure something did because this project didn’t suddenly switch to git dependencies since I last built it with git; it was already using them.

So we got ahold of one of these used from someone who found it didn’t do what they needed it to.

Alright the premise of this one is way simpler than how we got there.

So you’re using helix, you’re working on a rust crate, and you need to turn a feature flag on.

Linux won’t sleep on this motherboard out of the box.

It works on illumos.

You may not know this, but you can run your own sync server for Firefox Sync, which lets you keep all your sync’d data entirely on your own servers.

This warning serves no purpose on slow computers where like half of modern web-apps trigger it (thanks modern web-apps).

A strategy so simple that a friend described it to me in a few sentences, off hand, not intending to provide me instruction. and I went and did it, and it worked anyway.

Due to Circumstances, I want to boot a NixOS live ISO in such a way that the storage medium can be removed after boot-up.

I rebased the 4.4 branch of jernejsk/FFmpeg on ffmpeg 4.4.3.

You’re writing lua, you want to serialize and deserialize data, and you want to pick the best format/library pairing for the job.

There’s this website online that’s a bit notorious for being awful, and also for being everywhere: fandom dot com.

I want to cross compile to illumos from linux, for reasons I’ll hopefully get to write about in the future.

We’ve been passively experimenting with the mold linker for the past six months or so.

This is not new information but I’ve been having an increasingly difficult time finding the exact options to use in the library of babel that is the modern search engine.

I think it’s only fair to call me an X apologist.

I read the manual, and I’m putting it here so I don’t forget.

There’s a javascript emulator for the TI83+, TI84+, and TI84+CSE calculators called jsTIfied, which was written by Christopher Mitchell, founder of the calculator fan site cemetech.net.

Hey!

Decisions are our keys to the ethereal freedom, but they are also our shackles to the earth.

I am a notorious lover of small computers.

If there’s one thing that is guaranteed to piss me off in the current year, it’s a social media tool that doesn’t let me disable GIF animations.

If you’re in need of a backup solution for your *nix machines, BorgBackup is a great tool for it.

Welcome back to me making bad decisions with Oxide software.

The early 2010s was when I first got into music in a big way.

I’ve got this rock64, which is an aarch64 board comparable to a Raspberry Pi 3 B+ with 4 gigs of ram.

It was a calm day on the puppy-linux thinkpad.
