Silly Doom trivia question for anyone who ISN'T following my tumblr:

So someone implied Doom (1993) rendered triangles. I pointed out that it does not, it's solely rendering line strips for walls and sprites, and weird horizontal strips for floors.
HOWEVER: I was wrong. Doom DOES render triangles. But where does it render them? Because it's only one specific place.

(Outside of level designers making triangular rooms. That doesn't count)

I wonder how hard it is to make a fake USB printer.
Like, a printer that takes any printout and goes "yep, that printed just fine" but nothing ever comes out anywhere

With all the different microcontroller platforms out there, it's sometimes annoying because there's a solution that does exactly what you want but it's targeting some weird architecture that isn't what you use, or has suddenly become hard to find.

I think it's about time we organize all our open source microcontroller-based firmware around a simple, widely available, and powerful architecture, for consistency and interoperability.

The Intel 80486.
