The Nanoconsole SGX is a VGA console made from a ch32v003 chip (16k flash/2k ram, no multiplication). It has onboard buttons and speaker. It sports a USB bootloader, has none less than six games now and is of course completely opensource/openhardware.
I, like the author, stopped worrying leaving aside unfinished projects. I cobsider learning or having fun was the project, and that I did finish. And I frequently come back to projects a while after.
But freezing is a local state, that shouldn't need more than auditing ?
The control loop "freezed -> unfreeze" should maybe not be exposed for action if it has such consequences.
ofc it's /s, spoiling millions € of food by hacking into fridges of course il illegal. My guess is rendering the braindead auth / bug exploit illegal wouldn't change anything (besides legitimate uses)
You can train on questions, but I will rarely answer to a chat with a SO-quality answer.
I currently have ~12 windows open (Win11 explorer, office, dev / terminal apps, sublime, Firefox, signal) : almost every one of them has a different top bar.
"easy not complex" I'm not completely convinced by this point : it's hard to stay simple ! Maybe I'm just nitpicking between simple vs easy, but words especially in such a context (language and specs expression) are important !
OK but even if F1 teams are a very expensive arms race it doesn't prevent me to bike to shop cheaply. You eed to have a moat around what people need.
given the fact that we've moved in my office from 3-people offices to open-plan office to flex desk now I'm not exactly sure I would want my coworkers to speak all day to their computers and gesturing / walking in front of a projector (provided there will still be coworkers with IA)
And most people don't live in this country.
You need both, and both are responsible for the current state.
To stop this, you need to try to stop both until one doesn't exists.
WTF 386 was for me a sci-fi like device I wouldnt dare think about having when I was a kid. I had a very nice 8086 I cherished, with VGA video no less ! (Yes driving a vga card with a 8086 was slow..
They may be troubled but Codeberg owes them precisely nothing
Indeed, 2000s are my fav globally
Exactly, and more broadly ALL of them are a variation of bgcolor + border-radius + padding + font (type, size). No funky shape, borders, FX, 3D / relief or even shadow, pixels... Every single one is a flat, round borders.
Its not a computer, its a small device. You dont have many unknown peripheral you dont have other programs. The memory and peripherals are there, just use them. Heap is complicated ? Preallocate everything. A peripheral is not used ? Just leave it there. Security ? Of what ? Thats the appeal of those devices.
I find the opposite to be true. I'm much less in control when prompting than programming. So I can be much more in the flow during programming and 8h (well stopping to lunch) can be no issue. I feel bad prompting 2h straight.
I'm 100% behind it, but would regulation of financial markets and balanced tax policy do for global warming ? Sure heavy regulation of industries and fossil fuels usage but financial markets, im not sure.
Sure those heatwaves are murderous, but I think the earlier they come, the earlier real action is taken. The worst could be a very slow response.
What strikes me is the relative sharp change. CO2 has been rising since, what 250 years ? However real effects of global warming seems to be felt since, like 10 years old ?
You talk about Europe then only give Germany examples ..? Is that a German only problem ?
Exactly, you should optimize for quality and have a high bar forbit but I'm not sure sacrificing framerate for pixel perfect rendering or perfect subpixel antialiasing and compositing a perfect glass chroma aberration when wheezing a superfast animation is more important than it being solid 144Hz or audio synced.
"a bunch of nice graphics being manipulated with code" does sum up quite a bit of the videogame industry, including GTA VI ...
docker images and ubuntu releases use an adjective, this could at least allow some alternatives like bold/supreme/decisive/depressed eagle (or just use battery staple)
I havent seen many desktop like workflows on it with several "big" apps open (and running cpu) at the same time, most ive seen was one software at a time or games. Cooperating with yourself is relatively easier, no ?
Funny because I rewrote a bad port of dragons lair for a custom console with a tiny engine and huge dataset relatively, each frame having one "if press X goto frame Y" instruction.
