deadcast··on Show HN: UltraEd – A level editor/game engine for the Nintendo 64
Aww thanks so much! Glad you like it! :D Yeah this is definitely not useful haha but I'm learning more about 3d mathematics, rendering techniques, low-level systems, constructing tools, etc...

BTW here's a video of proof-of-concept ROM I built first to see if I could actually achieve building what I wanted on the console. :)

Haha yeah I don't expect many people to actually setup a VM to use this but it's a big learning project for me! :) My end goal is to create a new game for the N64 but I need tools. So this project is really for me and anyone else who wants construct new content for the system as well!

It's really easy actually to load on an emulator or on real hardware. The build process I'm working on now creates a production ready ROM that can be placed on an EverDrive 64 or 64 Drive cart. I always test on real hardware when developing the engine for the N64 part of the system. :)

These files are necessary to setup the dev environment if you want to compile. I use the link myself when setting up a new build machine.

If you don't trust the files that's perfectly fine. You could pretty easily, I believe, find them all from repositories you trust.

Also yep Win XP only! Keeping it authentic lol. :)

deadcast··on Ask HN: Is Comcast having internet problems?
same in Modesto, CA
deadcast··on Ask HN: Is there something wrong with internet right now?
Dang I can't even access downdetector. I'm in California in the central valley. Everything is very sluggish and the ol' router/modem reboot did nothing. :/
deadcast··on Users don’t need a password
I don't store any personal information. Just public chaincoin wallet addresses so I think in my use case this solution works pretty well. Good ideas to think about though! :)
deadcast··on Users don’t need a password
Yeah it actually is open source! :~) https://github.com/deadcast/ChainTrack. It's using Rails 5.1.4 with Ruby 2.4.1.
deadcast··on Users don’t need a password
I don't think it's that bad. Reminds me of my current login flow for some sites where I utilize 2FA.
deadcast··on Users don’t need a password
I just did this with my web app that helps you track alt coin earnings. Just enter your wallet addresses and then bookmark the unique url that's generated for you. Access any time with no credentials. Works well so far but might not be best for every app.
deadcast··on Smallpt: Global Illumination in 99 lines of C++
Great work and thanks for sharing the source! I love when I can see the output from someone's program, get the source code, compile it myself and then get the same results! :)
deadcast··on Welcome, ACLU
Happy to hear this! I just became an ACLU member yesterday and I'm grateful to have an organization like them around in our current frightening times. The amount of support they've been getting is pretty awesome! :)
deadcast··on Earth Sets a Temperature Record for the Third Straight Year
Please keep your conspiracy theory propaganda off of HN. You're a danger to the world we live in. Ty.
deadcast··on With Google's RAISR, images can be up to 75% smaller without losing detail
Does anyone know if there's something like this available now to experiment with? I've been looking for a new way to ultra compress images and never heard of these techniques before. Looks like Google hasn't released any tools yet to the public, if they ever will.
deadcast··on SpaceX Iridium-1 Webcast [video]
I guess I'm puzzled as to why somebody would find this great event saddening?
deadcast··on AdNauseam Banned from the Google Web Store
Yeah after hearing about all of this I'm now a new happy adnauseam user! :)
deadcast··on AdNauseam Banned from the Google Web Store
Yeah I just installed it as well and it's fun seeing all of the content that gets clicked on. Searching on Google shows at least 15 ads clicked/blocked. No wonder they hate this extension!
deadcast··on How to encrypt your entire life in less than an hour
Yeah KeePass is great! I currently use KeePass2 on my Trisquel 7 machine. I use that app in conjunction with Deja Dup to back up my password database to S3. There's even an app on the fdroid store called KeePassDroid but I've yet to make it work. I think the version on the store hasn't been recently updated.
deadcast··on Nvidia adds telemetry to latest drivers
I just switched to a geforce 8400gs using the nouveau drivers on GNU/Linux. I'm not big into graphically intense applications and I don't have to worry about my graphics card waking up and "phoning home." :)
deadcast··on Turbo.js – GPGPU made simple
Yeah I got that error as well. I'm using IceCat 38.8.0 on Trisquel 7.0 with a geforce 8400gs.
deadcast··on Plasma Mobile – Turns your phone into a fully open hacking device
I actually haven't heard of CopperheadOS before but I chose Replicant because it's a project backed by the Free Software Foundation. I thought I'd give it a try since I'm slowly moving over to the FOSS world for everything and I wanted to support them. :) I actually bought a phone from Tehnoetic with Replicant already installed. Should be here any day!
deadcast··on Plasma Mobile – Turns your phone into a fully open hacking device
Whoa very cool! Happy to see a new, free phone OS. I'm currently switching to Replicant and moving away from the Apple/Google controlled phone world.
deadcast··on Show HN: My first web app – PDF memo creator
Yeah that's what I was thinking. I trust Libre Office way more since it's free software and I can actually inspect the source code to see what it's doing. I don't trust web apps like these at all.

"He was #1!"
deadcast··on Final – A credit card built for the 21st century
I do as well. If it's proprietary then I don't want to run it on my phone. No thanks.
deadcast··on How to make tabs using only CSS
I had to first click on one of the tabs before it started letting me use the keyboard.

You forgot one:

Have a Go, mate!
