The demoscene has provided our community with its artistic outlet since the first computers which could handle graphics, and has stayed at the forefront of technology all the way. For all that though, there’s a frontier it hasn’t yet entirely conquered, which exists in the realm of silicon. To address this [comes] the ever awesome…
I thought it would be nice to put together my own introductory guide, and in the process improve my own understanding. After a lot of reading, and a lot of questions answered by my excellent colleague Dr Amy Hughes, I’ve put something together that covers some of what I was hoping. https://mcla.ug/blog/qc-intro.html

There are several types of CSS units like rem, em, px, vh, vw, percentage and each with its own specific use case. CSS units…
[Rejunity] is bringing us an open-source z80 core on real hardware, thanks of course to the TinyTapeout ASIC project. The classic core will occupy two tiles on the upcoming TinyTapeout 7. While perhaps it’s not quite the same as a real 40-pin DIP in your hands, like all of the open-source custom silicon world, it’s as yet…
Can’t get enough of Chibi projects… their work, IMO, represents one of those branches. https://chibitronics.com/2024/01/17/sending-hugs-using-animating-led-sticker-and-the-pull-tab-switch/
Our current computing eco-system is, essentially, a speed-run down *one* branch of the possibility tree. When you grok that, you then ask the what-if question. When you unhook yourself from the profit motive as a culling mechanism… shit gets really interesting. If I die an old man exploring those other branches… I’ll die a happy…
