2021-08-13 13:48 Hex Word of the Day: 0xDEA110C8 I finished a p roject today for the first time in a long time t oday (https://sr .ht/~nytpu/sbhk/ ). I wrote about this in my cont ribution to SMOL zine 6 on Gemini , but I have bee n totally unable to finish (or e ven start) any p rojects lately. Usually I blame it on work or sc hool, but both o f those haven't been any sort of an issue, I've had abundant fre e time lately, s o I don't know w hat the issue is . Hopefully this 'll catalyse me to work on more stuff at least..

2021-08-18 09:08 Hex Word of the Day: 0xB007AB1E -I'm really enjo ying writing C a gain. Not that I 've really writt en in any other "real" programmi ng language rece ntly, but I just haven't been pr ogramming at all . I'm currently working on a thi ng to encode DTM F tones, and it' s interesting to work with libav codec which I've never used befo re. I do want to jump into Game Boy assembly aga in but I also wa nt to save my go od game idea for when the Playda te SDK is releas ed. We'll see if I can hold out long enough.....

2021-08-28 21:40 Hex Word of the Day: 0x0B57AC1E I want to make a tri-posting ut ility that will let me write gem text and be able to port it to G opher and HTTP. I like Kineto f or HTTP, but it' s a little limit ing on customiza tion so I want t o experiment wit h something else . The main thin g I got hung up on last time I t ried working on something like t his is that prog rammatically gen erating Gopherma ps is really fuc king hard. Gene rating the right item types and selectors from r aw gemtext is ve ry difficult.

2021-09-13 09:46 Hex Word of the Day: 0x000FECA1 I'm getting a h ankering to try out some sector art. Regular sec tor art is borin g though, you're just taking an image and downsc aling it and cru shing the colors . Instead, I'm talking about wr iting a simple T UI tool to let m e write xterm co lors directly to a raw binary fi le so I can dire ctly make sector pixel art witho ut any dumb baby high-level help er utilities oth er than my homeb rew one......... ................ ................ ................ ................
