any datahoarders out there with a torrent of the latest Epstein release? I'm hearing rumours they're already being taken down.

Yes, you can absolutely build a USB (or, with an ESP8266, MQTT) to DMX adapter with an ATMega328 (as available on Arduino Nano or variants thereof), despite the fact that it only has a single UART.
All you gotta do is run TDMA between USB / UART input (57600 baud) and DMX output (250 kbaud). Also known as: Just send the desired output pattern several times, one of the transmissions will fall into the โ300ms gap between two consecutive DMX frames.
Mwahahahaha :3

I understand the words USB, UART, ATMega, ESP8266, Arduino Nano, MQTT
USB and ESP8266 & ATMega stuff I even touched! (Tho only USB 2.0, on an RP2040)
@ity basically: DMX is a protocol for lightning fixtures that can also be transmitted with a UART hardware interface. However, the ATMega328 (8-bit microcontroller in an Arduino Nano, with a whopping 16 MHz / 32 KiB Flash / 2 KiB SRAM) only has one such UART โ it cannot receive data via USB and output DMX at the same time, as the two use incompatible line speeds (baud rates).
Enter TDMA (time division multiple access): alternate between receiving USB (UART @ 57600 baud, transmit line for DMX idle) and sending DMX (UART @ 250 kbaud, receive line from USB not used).
That's it, really^^
ah, I somewhat follow I think (?)
Any reason to not do an RP2040 instead? Seems interesting nonetheless tho :3 kinda wanna forward it to a friend that did bitbanged UART & SLIP on an attiny85
ooo
The RP2040 has two UARTs, one over its USB 2.0 controller, the other routed to PIO pins
It's very nice, the baud should be high enough too (plus the thing can do PIO faster than its own clock speed, the PIO is tied to shift registers and a few other fun things)
And yea, hardware limitations are very fun :3 I'm still bad at embedded engineering unfortunately, but it's really cool to watch others do these kinda things

My dream is to immigrate from the United States to Switzerland, so a fully remote data entry job would do really well for me right now.
RE: app.wafrn.net/fediverse/post/fโฆ
I am tired of being broke by the end of the month, so please help me find a job.I am looking for a Entry Level Remote Data Entry job.. I have never really done any data entry in my life, but as I live in the suburbs in New Jersey in the United States, and do NOT driveโฆ most other jobs are pretty much off limits to me. I have experience using Excel (and Excel like programs), word processors, and computers. If you are looking for someone to do some data entry work I am willing to send you my resume. Just direct message me, and I will email you my resume.

I've reverse engineered the bus arbitration logic between the NEC GB-1 ET2000-based EGA card, and the Z80 that sits on the card's CMII compatibility module.
Dumping the board's three PAL decoding chips was key to figuring it all out.
It's a bit of a mess!

What's fun is that the logic to check if the CMII board is active actually passes in the affirmative sense if you don't have any of the relevant registers at all.
So trying to boot the ET2000 BIOS in MartyPC just means we ask the poor IBM BIOS to initialize a Motorola 6845 that doesn't exist and the virtual monitor loses sync.
The ET2000 has a completely undocumented register 1Ah that if you write 02h to it, apparently allows you to read whether there's a CMII card installed by reading CRTC register 12h.
That seems rather random but you do you, Tseng Labs.
They are very careful to always write 0 back to 1Ah after doing this.
The ET3000 and ET4000 chipsets seem to skip right over 1Ah, so I'm guessing this was a register that only existed on the ET2000.
It must have other bits. But what do they do??

dawg smartphones are fucking stupid like if you told a medieval peasant that you had a little magic brick that screamed at you for attention every few minutes they would look at you like you're an idiot and offer to kill it for you

Itโs life changing to turn off all notifications that you absolutely do not needโฆI would also recommend deleting social media apps off your phone and using a web browser instead.
A bit hypocritical as Iโm typing this from Ivory, but I donโt find Mastodon controlling my attention. I always feel pretty deliberate about using it (notifications are also off too)
