An idea for hexadecimal time

• basic unit of time is the second
• epoch is the unix epoch
• this makes it compatible with unix time up to second level precision
• the equivalent of a millisecond would be a mibisecond (1/1024 sec)
• UTC time of writing: 687F 5394
• YYMW DHmm
• hex minute: 0x100 seconds or 4.267 minutes
• hex hour: 0x10 minutes or 1.1378 hours
• hex day: 0x10 hex hours or 0.758 days
• hex week: 0x10 hex days
• hex month: 0x10 hex weeks
• hex year: 0x10 hex months
• hex century 0x100 hex years

Examples

Yet Unnamed Revolution Investigation

DOL

• More compatible with Nintendo tooling
• I assume it has something to do withu

ELF

• more flexible than DOL
• can be converted to/from DOL

KalistiOS

• seems to be an SDK for Dreamcast
• supported PS2 and GBA at one point but those are unmaintained
• supported x86 at one point but wasn’t made public?
• looks like yu-rvl is gonna be doing stuff with that

libOGC

• bad
• seems like it’s used by most/all existing Wii homebrew

NAND Channel

• Forwarders?

BlocksDS

• seems to be an NDS SDK we’re shipping alongside other Yu utils?

Hardware

• 128x128 Screen

• 16 official colors + 16 unofficial colors
• 256 8x8 sprites
• 32kb cart size
• 64kb RAM
• 4 channel audio
• uses p8scii
  • != ascii
• runs at 30fps or 60fps

  board: Array,

  moveHistory: Array,
  enPassantTarget: {x, y} | null,  // Updates each turn
  halfMoveClock: number,  // For 50-move rule
  capturedPieces: Array
}

3. Move Validation System

Separate move generation into layers:

Layer 1: Basic Move Patterns

getPseudoLegalMoves(piece, position)
  - Returns all squares the piece could move to
  - Ignores check/pin considerations
  - Each piece type has its own logic

Layer 2: Board-Aware Filtering

getLegalMoves(piece, position, gameState)
  - Filters pseudoLegal moves
  - Checks if king would be in check after move
  - Handles special moves (castling, en passant)

Handling Special Cases

Hardware

• Display Resolution: 192x160

  • potentially just upscaled from 96x80
  • at 3x scaling that’s 576x480, 32px pillarboxes if 640x480
  • 384x320

• how small can the screen physically be?

  • android guidelines say 48dp @ 160dpi or 0.3"
    • android guidelines also say 48dp is about 9mm so who the fuck knows anymore
  • apple says 44pt or 44/72" or 0.61"
    • 44pt is 44px, 88px, 132px depending on device
    • 132px on iPhone X @ 448(?)dpi so ~ 0.294"
  • 192x160 is 1.2"x1"
  • 640x480 is 4"x5" for a 6.4" diagonal
  • 28.8" x 24" needed to meet android accessibility guidelines jfc
  • tl;dr: Apple and Google seem to want about 0.3"per target
  • NDS screen size is 106.666 dpi
    • poketch would be 1.8x1.5"
    • 640x480 would be 2x1.5" or 2.5" diagonal
  • https://www.adafruit.com/product/2478 should do the trick
    • 320x240 2.4"
    • we use 288x240 (1.5x)

• 2 Bit grayscale

Shell

• !!:s/foo/bar/, replace first instance of foo with bar in the previous command
• ^foo^bar same thing but shorter and less flexible
• !foo rerun last command containing foo

Keepalived

• don’t ever use use_vmac, it’s fucky

communication between a client and meshtastic device over serial

• need to adapt from: https://github.com/meshtastic/Meshtastic-arduino
• https://store.rokland.com/products/rak-raspberry-pi-rp2040-core-module-for-lorawan-with-lora-sx1262-us915-mhz-rak11310-pid-116003 seems like a minimal device that would work well for this

Next Step: figure out how tf to get serial I/O on interesting devices

• TI-84: seems to not be viable? MirageOS has functions for using the TI protocol to send bytes but we’d need an intermediary to turn that into the meshtastic serial protocol
