Been writing a NES emulator for a while. Works well enough but there is a new automated test available. My emulator does ok, but not good enough. Going to try and improve things.

The whiplash from the whataboutism must hurt

Yea i don’t know what the above is on about. Social studies included civics and history.

The processor definition is in Scala using Chisel. This produces an HDL (what’s needed for actual hardware) using a typed embedded domain specific language. This also compiles to a software model for validation. But that’s not the same as “software only”

I’m getting Juicero vibes

Egg. Salad greens. Tofu. Whiskey.

Thoughts and prayers /s

Beyond All Reason is really interesting. There is a long history there! The engine was originally made to play Total Annihilation mods (or the full game? Not sure). That evolved over something like 15 years!

The end result though is not just a good open source game but a damn good RTS with an awesome scene. I <3 BAR.

Anyways, aside from fawning over BAR what’s my point?

Plan for the long game: these projects can take a long time to gain traction.

That does constrain the optimizations to a profile determined prior to the end user. Which is hopefully the same but might not be. Shared code between applications also is a challenge.

I like to ask the posters like abo 3 “what is the role of the vice president?” They typically mhave no answer, make shit up, or propose things that are definitely not constitutional for a vice president. Then again, they want a dictator so the constitution has little to do with their reasoning.

Scala 3 native. If the compiler was faster I’d be even happier. Curious to try Ada

Specifically impacting poor people. Which, ya, is fucking bullshit. Feed the kids in school please. Breakfast, lunch, dinner if you must. Feed the ducking kids.

They are slippery. So they require a case. Why not, i dunno, make them easier to hold? The phone design doesn’t matter if it’s always hidden.

Is ipfs usage growing? Stagnant? No idea… Diatributed serving of content seems great

Scala-js is becoming my go to scala backend. I did not know there was a wasm feature coming. Will try

I have the 2022 razr model. Which has a slightly different form factor than the newer models might have worked better for me. Larger bezels are a bit easier for me to use. As for feeling bulky no not at all. It felt a very nice and good size for one hand when folded. Then when unfolded it felt like a normal phone.

As for the pixel fold well. Folded it feels like a heavy and slightly bulky normal phone. Which is fine. Actually, I don’t mind the heaviness of it or the bulkiness of it. That said, I have a lot of problems with the phone’s design. For instance, the heaviness makes it difficult to handle confidently without pressing a button for me.

Anyways, I posted a half feverish rant on the pixel fold here https://youtu.be/WHxOosmJt_U

Oh wow, is this a totally new thing? Is Biden just suddenly old or was he always going to be this age when fucking time moved on. But hey doesn’t seem to stop Trump

This whole thing is so fucking stupid. If the Democrats wanted a legitimate candidate they should have thought of that way before but instead they fucked it up. Now by trying to replace Biden. They’re going to fuck it up even more. But hey he’s old I mean come on better let the fascists win

Two of those were redundant 🙂

Yes. I’ve used the razr flip. Which was probably the best phone I’ve ever had. Glorious device. Loved the foldable screen.

I also use a pixel fold. Which is a piece of shit. Software is buggy. Hardware is poorly arranged. Generally hate using it.

Absolutely does. Source: worked for Amazon.
