I know how to code.
I know how to make digital art. Pixel Art & 3D.
I know how to fly FPV racing quads.
I host everything myself.

I'm still using floppies.

I put Deluxe Paint II on my FreeDOS retro EeePC. Did some pixelart next to the fireplace.
It shows what we got in the garden.

Nice article => https://www.datagubbe.se/dpaint/

BTW: this setup uses so little computing power (relative to the EeePC power) that it still works hours on battery!

@tripplehelix This is an inset corner - outside fireplace.

(And it's not exactly mine house, family retreat)

User: Make simple python application using pygame. Let it opens in the center of the screen, be 512x512 in size and have a hearth icon/shape inside that changes size in hearthbeat fashion.

It works! Looks like Sci-Fi when it does each step just as any other junior programmer. Runs code, checks errors, adds graphics (almost hearth) and in the end even creates venv for this project.

I'm using OpenAI API for this.

User: Make a website about slugs. Why those are cool, what they like, how to keep one for yourself. Make it flashy, animated, use a lot of emojis. For european users and slug types

User: make a simple paint program for 1-bit graphics and 8x8 sprites. use python. make the window 320x320 with a canvas for drawing that has big pixels 40x40px.
User: now on [ctrl] [s] save the drown image as .gif and also as .bin - a binary file for assembler where each row is encoded into binary number 1 black, 0 white pixels. save those binary representations as hexadecimal numbers one by another.

This junior AI broke working functionality while fixing other stuff. But overall it's super fun to watch :D And now it's fixing itself...

So much fun... and I run out of my budget at OpenAI API in no time :P

Will back to this after the paycheck.

@tripplehelix Do you have the same bug - when it runs local server there is no way to kill it so the Devon is stuck and can not continue? (in python you close the app and can ask for changes).

redrawn sprites with 2 frame animation.

I made a paper backup of the code. Four A4 pages per game (single side).

@voxel I remember those. Never write any but know friends that did.

@tripplehelix Are there any magazines left?

@ tripplehelix yes! very good keyboard. still works fine after this long time!

w84death,
@w84death@fosstodon.org avatar

Night shoot but already shows how I cleaned it up.

One of the best (non mechanical) keyboards I have!

Perfect for my retro IBM PC.

There is a chance I will use one of my Arduino to make a converter for USB. True PS/2 will not work without a dedicated CPU.

@tripplehelix Shift (and fre others) are now fixed. Rubber domes looks like new, problem was the "legs" each button has ant those needst to be perfectly straight. Its platic those bends when I taken them out for cleaning.

My precious dirt!

Argh, my mail was delivered to the wrong address again, someone else has a very similar road name. This keeps happening, especially when we get a new postman. It's frustrating for both myself and the other person!

@tripplehelix You do not have postal codes for streets? or new mailman do not look at this information?

Emulated 386/33Mhz, 2MB RAM

Works perfectly smooth on EeePC class CPU.

@tripplehelix Im still figuring out how to make collision detection in the last free bytes...
the look is similar because I made 2x1 pixels.

For anyone intrested in boot sector programming this is the best tool out there!

I was searching so long for anything close to this for days. And bum! I don't even remember where I found it.

=> https://www.bootsector.games/

  • x86 BIOS Emulator
  • Assembly IDE (bad error handling)
  • Compiler, Debugger, Stepper
  • Live memory map! <- this is HUGE for me
  • Web only (Good and bad)

Next game (3) will be something cyberpunk themed. This cover will fit perfectly!

@tripplehelix I was learning how to move my variables into memory and use that for particles/enemies positions. Yesterday I found out how to debug my code and made pissing bullets!

w84death, to asm
@w84death@fosstodon.org avatar

Yes!
Decoding binary pixel data using AND mask.

4b worth of sprite 🌱 (4x8)

Selecting sprites also works now.
