Salut le fediverse !
En ce début d'année 2026 qui commence mal, je vous invite à rejoindre le projet Science United qui utilise (via le logiciel BOINC créé par l'Université de Berkeley) la puissance de calcul de votre ordinateur (processeur, et carte graphique si vous en avez une) pour des projets de recherche universitaire : médecine, astronomie, mathématiques...

I am almost certainly going to add some kind of programmable computer to my game. Thinking of making it programmable with assembly and basically implementing something like a 6502 VM that runs a handful of instructions per game tick. But I'm not entirely sure whether to make it an *actual* 6502, or to just make a similar but simplified ISA
Kinda tempted to do the second one, because 1) making ISAs is fun and 2) standard 6502 assembly is ugly so I'd wanna make some changes anyway.. #gamedev
Alright I have designed a little ISA: https://gist.github.com/mortie/d678c4663fe705219e5dfe90e0bbdc3d. It's somewhat 6502-inspiret, but I think it's cute.
Not done yet, but I think it's a decent starting point. Next step: writing a VM and an assembler...
Today 38 years ago a small computer manufacturer in UK launched their new product. The RISC machine became the Acorn Risc Machine and later Advanced Risc Machine -> ARM
It is the most used CPU ever. Intel? Never heard of it...

Have you ever thought to yourself "wow, I have these (CPUID|MIDR|marchid) values and have no idea what they mean"?
Now there's a Rust library to solve your weirdly specific problem!
Introducing #libcpuname, a Rust crate with no dependencies that can translate between those values and the name of the referred-to vendor, chip, and core!
Currently supports x86, ARM, and RISC-V lookups.
Add it to your project now: https://crates.io/crates/libcpuname
(first crate please be nice)

One thing that really pisses me off personally is the #regression in terms of #Messenger#Apps.
My personal distaste and dislike for #proprietary, #SingleVendor & #SingleProvider #services like #Signal¹, #Telegram, #Discord², #WhatsApp, #Slack, #MicrosoftTeams, etc. aside:
WHY is there no #CrossProvider#Messenger to handle that shite?
WHY does everyone of these shitty providers think people want to download their #bloated#WebApp that takes up triple digit Megabytes if not entire Gigabytes and will gobble up all the #RAM and #CPU they can??
This problem ain't new and already got solved for corporate social media ages ago! (Not to mention actually good messengers!)
I mean
API 0- style access because obviously none of the platforms will allow, endorse or support such an endeavour and actively fight the developers and users !
So yeah, consider this a call for a @gajim / #Gajim or @pidgin / #Pidginfor garbage platforms!

Olà, le fédi toulousain, j'ai besoin de ton aide !
J'ai un notebook de #Tuxedo sur lequel je voudrais renouveler la pâte thermique du #CPU.
On m'a dit que c'était pas trop compliqué, mais pour la première fois je préférerais quand même voir avec quelqu'un qui a l'habitude...
Est-ce qu'il y a un #réparateur sympa (ou à défaut un #repairCafé ?) que vous me conseilleriez pour faire ça ?
Le boost allonge la durée de vie de mon ordi et réduit donc les déchets électroniques 😉
