another updated pinned post: hello world! this is fox32, a fantasy computer platform based on a custom ISA! it runs a graphical multitasking operating system called fox32os. over the past few years, a small community has been built up around it thanks to @zencorner.xyz for the new OS appearance <3

i finally bought a TI 99/4A on ebay!! its a beige one, hoping its not the QI revision so i can use a finalgrom99 cart without issues. there werent any pictures of the internals or the expansion slot so currently i have no way of knowing

the fact bluesky won’t let me open a dm conversation if the other party deletes their account is kind of silly. what if i wanted to remember who that was

okay i decided to try my hand at making an iPhoneOS 3 app using theos instead of xcode and i cant even find a good example of a hello world app lol. the best ive been able to do is a Black Screen

oh my fucking god. theos doesnt automatically rebuild the deb package when you run `make install`. so ive just been reinstalling the same broken build over and over again even though it was compiling the changes. it works now lol

and the only reason i got this far is because i hacked together parts of the makefile from purplecord. at first it wouldnt even build for a version this old. lol i really have no idea what im doing when it comes to objective-c

i am, unfortunately, autistic enough about desktop environments and design that when i see 00s Computer Aesthetic things that combine the iMac G3 with Windows XP/Vista icons, i cry a little bit on the inside. no... no...! not the bliss wallpaper on a G3...!

Replying to @xkeeper.net

I've been trying to say this for a while, programming is an art form. It is creative, it's technical, it requires a lot of problemsolving and it takes years to get good at it. It's a skill you have to exercise in order to get better. It's an art form.

unrelated, but it took me over a minute to type the alt text because the keyboard kept freaking out while typing???? did bluesky somehow break basic text input on the alt text popup on the ios app

it's been wild watching from the sidelines as framework gradually went from "super awesome repairable computer good for humanity and the climate :DDD" company to "permanently marred for supporting fascists. also their laptops fall apart like fender pinwheeler"

have any other linux users started experiencing an issue where bluetooth headphones default to "handsfree" mode now? for the past week or so, every time i turn on my bluetooth headphones i have to go into the audio settings and switch back to the aptX HD codec

i suppose i could have the cpu clock run at the minimum 4 MHz speed and then use DTACK(?) to halt the cpu most of the time so the arduino can keep up, but that means i would need to build a circuit that pulses DTACK for exactly one clock cycle and i dont know how to do that

i wish the 68000 didnt have a minimum clock speed so i could drive it with an arduino like i did with the Z80 when i was first learning how it works

by "drive it with an arduino" i mean like having the arduino act as a tiny amount of rom and ram and drive the cpu's clock slowly so i can step through execution

just saw someone refer to software their friend made as "oomfware" that's good we should be running more oomfware
