kickstarter to launch a satellite that could be used as a sovereign ground for the principality of sealand

have you ever wanted a #GlasgowInterfaceExplorer, but more wireless? #ESP32JTAG is a Glasgow-inspired device which is specialized for FPGA/MCU programming and debug, and works over WiFi. I think it's very cool and I've backed the project www.crowdsupply.com/ez32/esp32jtag

god forbid girls do anything

this is not the face of a boy who understands the realities of the american legal system

brother

they're good cats

added a new #GlasgowInterfaceExplorer applet, `control-clock`: a simple clock generator for when you just need to feed something into the XI pin of an MCU or something. you can use it in combination with other applets! e.g.: `glasgow multi probe-rs ... ++ control-clock --clk A7 -f 2000`

does anybody know whether Flash memory protection in Atmel AVR (specifically AT90USB162, but there is nothing special about this chip) can be glitched/bypassed? also, does anybody know if UV erasure attacks on lock bits on this particular IC family has been demonstrated?

watching a video about private equity buying everything in pro audio (native instruments, etc) i think over a long enough timescale (more than five years) the only tools that remain are FOSS ones.

let's fix the Wasm stack overflow situation at least for WASI: github.com/WebAssembly/...

Just got home and checked some of the Halloween sweets — found an ESP32 Supermini inside a Double Decker and an ATmega328P inside a Lion bar. Please be careful and inspect everything before eating. Something’s not right about this. #HalloweenSafety #HowSmallAreTheyNow

that "getting kicked in the head by a horse" tweet gives a more accurate idea of how this works than the prevailing psychiatric diagnostic model. everyone is capable of losing touch with reality, to varying extents. because "reality" is a fake idea. when the feedback loop breaks down, you spiral out

These should be illegal!

as a condition of funding, we were asked to affirm that we wouldn’t undertake any diversity, equity, and inclusion work, whether or not we used the government funds to do so. The PSF simply couldn’t agree to that statement,

advice to every Rust organizational decisionmaker out there: shut up, stop making excuses, and take notes from the PSF: bsky.app/profile/pyth...

TLDR; The PSF has made the decision to put our community and our shared diversity, equity, and inclusion values ahead of seeking $1.5M in new revenue. Please read and share. pyfound.blogspot.com/2025/10/NSF-... 🧵

this C compiler is really fast! it can compile and link a simple C program in ~65 ms on my machine. (this involves spawning three Wasm "processes") on the same machine, running the same command with a very similar Clang build natively takes ~80 ms. fast enough for update-as-you-type live coding!

any interest in having a fully-in-browser cross-compiler like openbsd.llvm.moe but for more popular platforms? (linux, freebsd, windows, etc)

I understand why they had to stop him but I don’t agree with imprisoning him in the phantom zone

if you do shared development of software on Tangled, is it called "knotting"?

finally wrangled LLVM/Clang/wasi-libc/libc++ together

turning a big dial labeled "how constrained a situation must be in order to qualify as a choice, thus freeing me of any responsibility for the existence of those constraints and offloading responsibility onto someone else" while looking back at the audience like a contestant on the price is right

this is how git-pages / grebedoc handled an 1.2 Gbps peak of egress just now: a blip

good news: we have cured all disease bad news: like, a salami

it's live, enjoy! openbsd.llvm.moe (not my project, but i contributed to it)

hey chat what do you think of my input UI element for compiler flags? it handles spaces correctly!

[extremely loud kibble crunch]

endianness is just a plot by Big Endian to sell more byte swap operations

horrors www.w3.org/TR/exi/

they made a compiler passive aggressive (pictured: openbsd playground, a webpage that lets you click a button and get a compiled openbsd binary downloaded in a few seconds, all done locally using WebAssembly)

"deserves" is a fake idea btw. when I say someone "deserves" something, know that I am compromising my own worldview for the sake of grammatical and rhetorical convenience. if this seems hypocritical to you, I mean, yeah. if you're mad about it, you are welcome to come kill me with a kitchen knife

youtube auto-generated captions just casually dropped this banger: "a thousand" -> "a,000"

ok so, check this out i have the YoWASP toolchain extension use a full OpenBSD toolchain cross-compiled to run on Wasm in the browser produce OpenBSD binaries!

I had NO idea sea hares could get THIRTY POUNDS I WANT ONE AS A PET

someone just seemingly attempted a DoS attack on one of the grebedoc sites (based on examination of trace samples this cannot be legitimate traffic from any source) p99 never rose above 60ms during the entire thing

please enjoy: a complete (ish; I only have the Python and JSON extensions enabled), working (ish) build of vscode-web that is hosted on a static page website with no active server code whitequark.grebedoc.dev/static-vscode/

did you know ITU has a document with the exact frequencies of dialtones and busy tones for every region? www.itu.int/ITU-T/inr/fo... very useful for getting modem handshakes period- and region-correct

i'm much more used to modem handshake noises being preceded by pulse dialing, so whenever someone includes it preceded by tone dialing i get weirded out a little

do you ever think about how, in all likelihod, more people in history have heard modem noises as an audio gimmick on youtuber videos communicating "this is slow" than out of a literal modem?

It's a Saturday night and time to go wild! So here is an X-ray of a Toshiba 500GB laptop drive!

A refugee camp in space, the war's first visible equalizer on this rock station called "Kemal-8" waiting for our Clipper. Here icehoppers, middle class lottery winners, and wealthy colonists all become the same under UN hot pink tarps, canteen food, and relief containers.

hey do you ever think about how npm's response to a Very Good Phishing Campaign (resulting in a wide range takeover) that used authentication updates with a few day deadline a premise... ... was to _actually_ deploy (pretty widely reviled) authentication updates with a few day deadline.

if i published a game on steam that consisted of a "code editor and HDL toolchain behind it (simply works)" & the objective is "implement logic in a real HDL without handrails but with debugger and tutorials" and there is a progression, leaderboard, and achievements would you play or playtest it?

hey does anyone have a copy of Windows 11 http. sys before and after build 26100.6899, or (since you probably don't want to roll back or install the update just for this purpose) can you run ApplyDeltaB* to materialize the file from WinSxS? * github.com/whitequark/A...

i should put some weird shit into DNS. no, weirder than that
