Updated the web DID feed to remove what appears to be another relay. Also hi I'm not dead I just disappear and reappear whenever it's convenient for me :))

Just as some ISPs don't have IPv4 addresses, others (like mine) don't have IPv6, so it'd require workarounds either way.

Oops, web:did feed broke. Fixed now though!

They hid it on the website, but forgot to hide their source maps...

If anyone knows a thing or two about PHY IP cores and recognizes it from the offsets/values/routines used for initialization, please shoot me a DM! It would be very cool to solve this mystery! The H616 and A523 use very similar PHYs, so would be cool to solve this mystery github.com/BrokenR3C0RD...

Finally finished writing up my blog post on reverse engineering DRAM initialization code. I'm no expert, but it seems like nobody really is in this space :)) #ReverseEngineering #Embedded # I don't know hashtags :(( blog.epochal.quest/a-noobs-jour...

A noob's journey to mainline: Part 2

So what did I need to reverse engineer? Just the code for a proprietary DDR3/DDR3L/DDR4/LPDDR3/LPDDR4 SDRAM PHY and controller, with absolutely zero documentation or source code to work off of

Weekly "what #DnB have I been listening to" #3 Missed a few weeks, oops! But don't worry, I'll make up for it! I have a neurofunk banger here that I found while digging into songs I hadn't heard for a long time. Magnetude - Goodbye (feat. Receptor) open.spotify.com/track/34tBRP...

Squid Game S2 was pretty good IMO, but the ending was such an OBVIOUS cockblock to build suspense for S3. Ah well, hopefully that'll come out alongside HTSDOF S4

Oh, it's a basketball team, makes sense. Was really confused why everyone would be talking about chicken nuggets and was concocting a head canon where there's massive McDonalds controversy

@koopaz.epochal.quest No clue when Bsky fixed it, but I can mention you now! Yay!

Saw others on the TL doing this; not at all surprised by my results.

The question is, what will you stream?

Your work still means something, no matter what happens. Whether that's knowledge, friends, or knowing you made something cool and did your best, you'll have something that will stick with you well into the future. So none of it has been for nothing IMO

Kinda want to build a super small 3D printer for shits and giggles. Something alluring about the idea of making a tiny RepRap and getting hands-on with some mechatronics

Only so many vacation days in a year :) Definitely planning to be a little less stingy about taking PTO though next year; burnout is a real shitty experience HAHA

MasterR3C0RD @record.epqu.ca · 14/12/2024

Really need to take vacation time more; I feel so free and relaxed when I don't have to worry about the following week of work (and can sleep in the day before Friday night drinks with the homies)

Finally, progress! Ends of smaller bridges are still a bit rough, but I think that might be either accel or pressure advance; not entirely sure

000

MasterR3C0RD @record.epqu.ca · 13/12/2024

Hating TPU so far; it REALLY hates the concept of bridging. Still tweaking away to see if I can get a single good result; hopefully this'll be the one...

Yep, lots of cases like these. Clearsky only released support yesterday or day before I think. Internect.Info I patched and upstreamed myself. Think Frontpage and/or Whitewind doesn't have did:web working yet. Definitely feels like you're using bleeding edge tech

Just some cheap SUNLU Silk TPU I picked up from a big box store; I think it's supposedly 96A shear but can't really confirm that. Haven't had too bad of luck with the SUNLU filaments yet (used their PETG heavily so far), and spools are easy to get locally

Sorry, engraved text needs to be *bigger*, not smaller. Probably bold font would be better. Cookie for anyone that recognizes the specific font :)

010

MasterR3C0RD @record.epqu.ca · 11/12/2024

Problems: - Walls are too thick, not very flexible. Fits like a small glove on medium hands - Pressure advance (?) messing up the seam - Engraved text is too small; need to make it smaller. - Stuck to my PEI bed pretty hard well, even with lots of glue V1 works! Will iterate again tomorrow...

Well, it's not perfect, and has a lot of problems, but you know what? It works!

Sometimes we have about 30 variations of "meow" in the feed; if I mute you then I'd have to mute them for equivalence, and then the feed would be too normal and no fun...

This stuff definitely loves to string though, temp tower didn't go very well (but that might have been due to the tower getting wiggled around by the nozzle). Seems to be better after a few hours in the dryer; should be good enough for a print at least. Planning on 3D honeycomb infill :))

010

MasterR3C0RD @record.epqu.ca · 11/12/2024

Already nearly clogged my extruder after some issues with the filament sensor; luckily after heating my nozzle up and re-loading was all good. Hopefully not a sign of things to come with my case. TPU tips are welcome; have been printing PETG mainly (barely touched my PLA spools) so

110

MasterR3C0RD @record.epqu.ca · 11/12/2024

Just about finished running through some fine tuning/calibration prints for my new TPU filament; just gotta do pressure advance and it will be "3D print my own phone case" time :D

MasterR3C0RD @record.epqu.ca · 10/12/2024

I think most of the issues new users are running into are due to not properly understanding concepts like lists, labelers, etc. Personally have my labelers all set to badge/warn; not many will know to do that on the Bsky mod service. Initial subscription to Bsky mod good, should be able to remove.

010

MasterR3C0RD @record.epqu.ca · 10/12/2024

Amusingly, I believe posts like these are what actually help push people to the other side; low self-esteem and wanting to find where you belong? Probably not looking for people who will mock you.

MasterR3C0RD @record.epqu.ca · 10/12/2024

They're giving him attention, which he wants. He's likely trying to get a rise out of everyone, and they're being foolishly compliant. And everyone expects Bsky to fix this; guess what, it's an open protocol! Use labelers/lists and fix it yourself!

MasterR3C0RD @record.epqu.ca · 10/12/2024

I agree, I feel like this is common sense if you've been to the various corners of the internet. Just spreads their messages further; Streisand effect. I never heard of the fella everyone's freaking out over until this recent debacle, and sure many others didn't either. They're amplifying his reach.

Are T&S issues important? Yes, very much so. Everyone deserves to be safe on platforms and free from harassment. But so is being able to wake up tomorrow and log into the funny butterfly site. /endrant
