gustavThis 5 hour interview with Sean Barrett (aka nothings) is a gold mine for anyone who has played around with software rendered graphics and/or handwritten assembly!

I finally managed to release #uxnfloppy, my bootable x86 #uxn emulator 
Try it out here: https://git.sr.ht/~gustav/uxnfloppy
Turns out Sid Meier wrote many of his early games in his own programming language, a #forth variant he called Sidtran :p
Among other things it made porting to the many architectures of the day easier.

cathosI started using Chimera Linux last week. So far, it's been pretty nice. Some similarities with alpine and gentoo (it has a BSD userland and a 'world'-based transactional package manager), but is generally just working for my purposes. Also, seems pretty easy to make packages for. #theFurnace
#debian friends - how do you go about building software on debian that depends on more-recent versions of things that are in the debian repos? #theFurnace #dependencyHell
noodle.tal also runs at a high framerate now, but it doesn't demo very well since the mouse only appears to be smooth when I use the tiny trackpad on the device, which is very hard to use one-handed! Probably my ps/2 mouse driver that is at fault..
For my #DecemberAdventure, I've optimized uxnfloppy so that it runs at 60 fps most of the time at 640x480! Here is a video of bunnymark.tal running on the laptop. It can draw around 2000 sprites before it goes below 60 fps!
It's the week of the noodle(.tal)! After weeks of painstaking ps/2 driver trial and error, the Mouse device is now working in #uxnfloppy as well! @tbsp #uxn #osdev #theWorkshop #theFurnace
Spent the evening implementing basic support for varvara's screen device in uxnfloppy!
