i want something like Wine, but for AmigaOS applications, but, hear me out, the API/ABI would include chipset emulation and ROM. multiple mini Amiga VMs could still share a filesystem and message passing. Intuition windows could be mapped to wayland surfaces. a bit like Parallels used to work. maybe a hobby project that i could do in 2045

testers wanted for new MNT Reform Keyboard firmware with USB report diffing

GitLab

(testers wanted!) keyboard4-fw: USB report diffing (and reform-next mode) (!97) · Merge requests · Reform / reform · GitLab

diff and send USB report chain only if needed (should greatly reduce USB traffic) reduce interval for 120Hz+ support (esp. trackpad) port some of...

(i want to port this to Pocket Reform keyboard as well once tested enough)

Fallout 4, launched via Steam, on RK3588 MNT Reform open hardware laptop with external AMD GPU (RX 580)

fever idea: EU law that requires that for any chip release, the chip company must release a complete emulator first (would save billions in wasted compile-reboot-pull-hair cycle time)

lil touch test (finally found the i2c usb adapter while cleaning up forsaken corners of the studio with @npub12gl2...frt9)

yes, people sometimes complain that they have to type `apt` commands on debian linux but have you tried correctly setting up the weird dishwasher in my apartment? (and also to get a replacement geschirrkorb for it, argh)

boring and obvious take, but i find AI stuff only interesting when it fails in hilarious or dangerous ways, and i find grifters and snake-oil salesmen fascinating in a crime-drama kind of way. i'll never respect AI output as a creative work because it's just random machine garbage and i'm only interested in real people's art and struggles, because i can emotionally connect only to real people, i mean that is why we do art, writing, film, games etc, not to look at machine kitsch

yesterday i set up an environment for faster kernel development iteration (esp. for rk3588). it builds a monolithic kernel using the patchstack we have for debian kernel version, but on a real git checkout. i can boot the kernel+dtb directly after compiling over the network (tftp) and into a busybox/toybox/static binaries environment to avoid boot times. i then figured out that suspend to s2idle works with that kernel and added the missing code to dts and fw to make it wake via the keyboard.

here is a rare interview based article on MNT Reform and open hardware in general, in german but i think modern browsers have a built-in babelfish. i said more political things that didn't make the cut (about surveillance tech industry (chat control, thorn etc), right-wing tech, our products being reproducible after our lifetime and not depending on unique industrial processes (but more widely available ones)), but it's a good explainer for folks who aren't as plugged in
