- Twister will sleep next to Nova in the bedroom - He will lay next to her in the study - As soon as its time to go downstairs he gets so scared of her that he hides behind the TV & pisses himself what is this dog's problem man

Ah, now there's an interesting snag. I want Dreambox to have networking features. For the high level WASM VM, this is easy - I can just add a quick socket API. But what about the low level "hardware version"... ?

Further update: Twister absolutely fucking despises the fact that Nova is wearing a cone. He has no idea what it is and it's freaking him out. He is actively avoiding being near her, despite usually being very close with her 😭

Trying to pick a goal w/ this, and I think I'm aiming for: - A design which could theoretically be implemented in an FPGA with unlimited resources - *Resembles* period accurate architecture, but not necessarily strictly bound to it (example: using RISC-V instead of MIPS)

Digging into this further: I feel like a few elements of this are beginning to diverge from Dreambox's feature set. I think I'm likely going to drop support for depth queries, and I'm strongly considering opting for a custom texture compression format which would break support for DXT images.

Update on this: Nova turned out to have a corneal ulcer. They've done some minor surgery and given us medicated eye drops & painkillers. Should clear up in ~10 days apparently. She is unhappy about the Cone of Shame, but currently snoozing on the couch w/ Cynder

Hm, I'm curious: how fast does it take a thread to resume if it's waiting on a WaitHandle? Like, could I run an emulated CPU in one thread, an emulated GPU in another, and use a WaitHandle to notify the CPU of Vsync interrupt? 🤔

Oh shit 👀

Man I'll be doing well with saving and then boom Surprise medical expense

What the fuck did they even spend it on? Like I genuinely cannot fucking fathom how what I'm looking at could have cost even close to that much. Are they blowing the whole budget on fucking cocaine parties for top level execs or something? Genuinely where the fuck did the money go.

The main villain of Foxblade is solidly in the latter camp lmao. If there was an orphan crushing machine that produced gold coins, he would be shoveling orphans into that thing like coal into a boiler

I finally made it onto a completely unhinged block list! 🥳

OH. NEAT. HELLO POSSIBLE INFLECTION POINT IN HISTORY.

i get paid tomorrow but i need to get food for today

a word to caution for trans people: tell allies to do this instead. the last thing i wanna do is hand over my info with my position on things to a gov that is currently getting taken over by weirdos

Actually maybe I could give it a "unified memory" of sorts. The main things that would need to be transferred back and forth to make that work would be texture memory and rendered frame contents, and I could probably cache texture data easily enough...

Anyway genAI in video games is going great. The AI upscale remaster of Tomb Raider 2 turned these mysterious instruments into a touchtone phone, complete with the classic R button! It's really important that we burn down the world so we can do this.

Hm, Trump declaring that all agencies and regulatory bodies are directly beholden to him seems kinda bad, right?
