if you put holy water through electrolysis are the resulting gases still holy

the fact that there's a kind of mirror called a vanity mirror is so funny to me. i think we should name more things after the sins they encourage. catch me laying on my sloth mattress eating my gluttony snacks

Ever played factorio and thought "I wish my factory had a risc-v core"?

Introducing Factorio Yosys!

This is a project of a friend of mine not on mastodon, so all credit to him. He built a full @yosyshq backend for #factorio that can now compile a #riscv core.

The core runs at 1.82 Hz at 60 FPS, and much faster with uncapped framerate.

i'm funny and cool and you should give me cash to subsidize my impulsive spending ko-fi.com/kasran

Note that no one has yet preserved an original disk of the Apple II version of "Buckaroo Banzai". We have low-quality, defaced disk images of the cracked version that was passed around back in the day. If anyone has an original of this game and would be willing to let me borrow it for, like, 10 minutes, let me know.

Dew claws on anthros?

hey you!!!! the one reading this post. are you staying hydrated? maybe go have a little drink of some water. you're doin great

where do you go when you're done lifting something? the afterlift

and where does that take place? why, in heavin'

oh wait they sell gba ext port replacements. i could just get one of those and put it on a little arduino or whatever the hell

"kassy why do you want to do this" 

mostly, itd be handy to be able to link the gba up to a computer or something for game-dev reasons, so i can send arbitrary Stuff over the link cable while testing out a link protocol or whatnot

it'd also be cool to be able to use something like this to link a real gba to an emulated one and e.g. trade pokémon or do multiplayer shenanigans that way

but also... i want to make a piece of music software for gba, like lsdj or whatnot but taking full advantage of the gba's power and sample mixing and stuff, and it'd be great to have a "gba-native" way to do things like import samples and export tracks. and there's only so much you can do with that when you can't connect to any devices aside from other gbas

Show thread

in particular i would eventually like to be able to make one without destroying an existing link cable

Show thread

today the weird niche thing i'm looking into is what it would take to make a gba to serial link cable

specifically i would like a way to do this that doesn't involve spending $3000 on a specialized printer
