My new video is up.
I coded a SID file player in C for the F256 line of computers. Tens of thousands of music files can now be ported to it!

I think you only need f128 for sub-atomic scales across the galaxy, and f256 is enough for Planck scales across the observable universe.

You might think of me as 'the MIDI guy', but I've obsessed over how to code the MOS Sid chip, the TI SN76489, the Yamaha YMF262, the SAM2695 and the VS1053b for the past year. All these side quests have been successful.

There were already 64 "hardware sprites" in the F256 platform, but now, there are 128 for this new extra F256K2 core that also doubles the MHz from 6 to 12.

One of the most prolific dev for the #Wildbits (fmr. known as F256) machines is jbaker. His work on 3d transformations leveraged by the audio VS1053b chip, using its DSP is paying off. Here's a tech demo of tempest-like gameplay

As missile sirens wailed over Israel earlier this month, thousands of Israelis received texts claiming to be from their military, encouraging them to download a fake shelter app, which could have stolen reams of personal data. Others received a text: “Netanyahu is dead." www.ft.com/content/f256...
