  1. I'm looking to drop WP, I'm tired of cookie this and cookie that. I'm also tired of the feeling I'm being pushed to buy services.

    Is there another option? ideally open source and cookie free?
    Ghost looks good, and seems to only have "essential cookies", anyone any experience?

  2. New fun with #Kicad 10 on #Ubuntu 26, it seems to randomly cause Ubuntu to just log me out and take me back to the login screen. No warning, no message on screen, just blam, back to login...

  3. @gilesgoat @polpo I think it’s a similar percentage who care, just that America has way more people so it’s easier to find.

    There are a few computer museums and alike in the UK and a few events too (one at the end of this month #Retrofest )

    But it is harder to find stuff in the UK.

  4. Hmmm, lots and lots of issues #KiCAD 10.
    It's slow, I mean, PAINFULLY slow and I keep getting "application has stopped responding". Zooming in/out is pretty much impossible as a result.

    And I've just tried to install plugins and it can't even connect to it's own plug in repository!

    Have to admit, I'm likely to go back to V9.

    I'm using Ubuntu.

  5. WOOT!

    Sorted the bugs (intermittent framing issue when sending) and added TX_BUSY status bit.

    Here you can see me checking connectivity and then connecting to a simple BBS (this is the console on my laptop).

    I do think I'm getting buffer overflows on some servers (m68k one and a couple of others) but this one worked a treat!

    So next I need to write a terminal emulator (which I am not looking forward to).

  10. oOO, Getting closer to a working CPLD/WiFi modem for my 6502 Laptop
    got a couple of bugs that are irritating.

    Here I'm connecting to a BBS using BASIC to send the ATDT command and then display what comes back from the modem.

  15. Well a lot of work on #LT6502b today.
    Now running at 10MHz (up from 7MHz), Keyboard now working and I can receive data from the WiFi Modem.
    Next is making the CPLD transmit to the WiFi Modem.
    Then trying to figure out why I can't run at 14MHz...

  20. IT WORKS!!!

    With a bit of effort I can now receive data from the UART on my keyboard controller, into the CPLD and read it form BASIC on my 6502 laptop revision b (slim version).

    I've set the Keyboard controller to output characters from $20 to $7F, here you can see them being shown.

    There is also a "new data received" status register too!

  25. Well the CPLD UART is coming along, another big step... Now when it's done receiving a byte, it transfers it to a register, which can then be read at anytime by the CPU. So that the CPU doesn't read garbage if it tries to read mid transfer (double buffer).

    more to do yet as I need two such registers and I also want the register to be cleared once it's been read, but this is BIG progress.

    This is all done in WINCUPL, not VHDL/Verilog.

  30. Well, I've not found a suitable UART speed for comms between the 20MHz AVR for keyboard and modem and the CPLD, it's 55336 baud, the AVR has a 0.4% error which gives 55556 baud, which *should* be ok with the CPLD running on a divided down 28.332MHz.
    So it spits out 1 ASCII character a second to the CPLD.
    Later this week I'll get the UART code into the CPLD and write a bit of basic to read it, hopefully it works.
