I just got off the phone with @bobabria.bsky.social and she informed me that the bean having butt cheeks was my idea. This was news to me, but also I am very proud to have been responsible for such a ground-breaking feature.

Did you know you can hack an initrd to run an entire x86_64 Desktop install under Rosetta??

I'm really excited for the Pixel 10a to come out in Spring...
Going to ultrasonic for fingerprints is a great QoL change. No camera island.
Also it is great to have AVF supported in the stock rom!

Did you know that one of the best ways to saturate a link when doing a backup over network is plain old HTTP?
It is pretty low overhead and you can really max out your speed by using a parallel download program like aria2c
(remember to fsfreeze though!)

“The New York Times collaborated with a white nationalist eugenicist hacker and agreed to keep his identity a secret to publish a Zohran Mamdani hit piece” is a way bigger story than “18 year old Zohran Mamdani ticked ‘African American’ on his Columbia application because he was a citizen of Uganda”

Glasgow is such a great tool for interacting with hardware. Been using it a lot, and it’s both easy and fun to build custom applets for it.
are you a platform/embedded developer?
do you need to interact with hardware in a semi-custom manner?
would you like to suffer a lot less doing it?
if so, #GlasgowInterfaceExplorer might be for you. the code below is all you need to build a custom testbench:

I am so frustrated!! I just realized that my GBA interposer that I use for taking logic captures was actually corrupting data on the bus

i've upgraded the Ethernet controller applet for #GlasgowInterfaceExplorer
this is the main loop of the applet working in bridge mode (acting as a network card for your PC). no weird optimizations, no hacks, just a loop that forwards packets in normal boring Python

Did you know you can just DMA over the running instruction of a PIO from another? This works but it feels super cursed

Yeah, you read the title correctly.
In an age where the Wii reigns supreme and unopposed, I want to do something that nobody wants to do anymore.
