imagine: an FPU built entirely out of 74-series logic

gah

just had to block someone on discord because their _name_ was a pokemon spoiler

it was one we'd already had spoiled but AUGH come on people

Is the switch lite like a PSP Go sort of situation where it's digital-only, or does it still have a cartridge slot?

bonus points if your code isn't otherwise compatible with those processors

- insist on including workarounds for hardware bugs that exist in very specific, obsolete, and possibly nonexistent processors

don't actually do these

fun things to do with a C program:

- make your program reliant on whether the compiler interprets `a+++b;` as `(a++) + (b);` or `(a) + (++b);`
- #define int uint8
- #define if while
- wherever possible, sprinkle in bits of assembly, even if it doesn't do anything useful

what happened to dual number in languages

we should bring that back

maybe trial too, because why the hell not

the 74ls181 is pretty neat.

If you consider the power that masks have in Majora's Mask, it would make sense that the happy mask salesman is, in fact, a peddler of identities. Buy a new identity to be, but trade in your old one first so someone else can try it out

today is just one of those days where eating lunch feels like a monumental task x.x

it really bothers me how loosely most people--students, educators, and researchers alike--treat units

crts are neat

kinda want to have one to play with

like, just a crt, not a crt monitor or anything, a bare crt

*vaguely stressed beep*

it's kind of weird how no one but nintendo ever managed to get any success out of the portable video games market

"Game gear? Oh, you mean the Sega Battery Eater?"

good morning

also beep

sure $1 each might seem fairly cheap but a functional 8-bit cpu will need several hundred minimum, possibly a few thousand

occasionally reminded of my desire to one day make an entire 8-bit cpu out of relays and yet that is extraordinarily impractical and expensive

relays don't come cheap
