You can find the source code on GitHub (I'm considering moving to Codeberg): https://github.com/projf/isle

Includes everything you need for:
* @machdyne Lakritz (Lattice ECP5)
* Digilent Nexys Video (Xilinx XC7)
* Radiona #ULX3S (Lattice ECP5)
* Verilator simulator with SDL (Linux/macOS/Windows)

Sometimes you need to ship it and call it a night, so I give you 🏝️ Isle.Computer Chapter 6 - Input Output: https://projectf.io/isle/input-output.html

Adds input hardware, uart, Isle edition of FemtoRV "Gracilis" RV32IMC CPU, software library in #riscv asm, Verilator/SDL sim improvements... #FPGA

TFW you realise something obvious. "Somebody to Love" is Queen doing gospel. And what a song it is when turned up to 11.

# each morning I get up, I die a little...

Is anyone surprised by this anymore?

“Around the time when Facebook was arguing that it was just a ‘mirror to society’, internal documents shared with the BBC by Motyl, the senior researcher, reveal how the company knew it was amplifying content which angered people and even incited harm.” https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cqj9kgxqjwjo

Meta and TikTok let harmful content rise after evidence outrage drove engagement - whistleblowers

Companies allowed more harmful content on user’s feeds, knowing their algorithms ran on outrage, BBC hears.

I always think the next chapter of 🏝️ Isle.Computer will be smaller and done sooner, but it never is. 😅

96 changed files with 6,169 additions and 538 deletions.

Bear in mind this includes docs, tests, support for multiple dev boards, simulation, and compiled software in Verilog $readmemh format.

Board testing in advance of #FPGAFriday. The answer was 42. #ULX3S
Tired of Teams? Meet Macintosh style from 1985 with VMCO.
I wonder if this could be ported to #GlobalTalk? 🤔

Happy #MARCHintosh for those who celebrate. 🥳

You might enjoy my Macintosh history series based on MacUser: https://systemtalk.org/post/macintosh-history-8510/

No ads, no slop, just classic Mac goodness. ☺️

Mac History 85.10 - Welcome to Macintosh

The creation of the original Macintosh has been extensively studied and written about, but what happened after it launched? What was it like to own a Macintosh in the mid-eighties? I intend to tell this story of the Macintosh through the pages of MacUser.

I‘ve upgraded 🏝️ Isle with the FemtoRV32 "Gracilis" CPU (RV32IMC); it even has interrupt support, which we’ll make use of later. 😄

I’ll release the next Isle chapter soon, with keyboard input and the start of our #RISCV software library. There’s simulation with graphics for Linux/Mac/Windows too.
