I am sorry I am not very good with bussiness, is it good when the market looks like this.

[javascript-official]

you people have one joke

[madlori]

I enjoy it immensely when a commenter addresses all of Tumblr as "you people" as if they aren't here at the devil's sacrament with the rest of us

[lynati]

And hey, we've got LOTS of jokes! I've got a compilation of my favorite Tumblr memes right here.

[codebirdfantasy]

#include <stdio.h> int main() { int i; int firsta[] = {1,2,3}; int seca[] = {1,2,3}; for (i = 1; i<=3; ++i) { printf("Enter value %d for First Array: \n", i); scanf("%d", &firsta[i]); } for (i = 1; i<=3; ++i) { printf("Enter value %d for Second Array: \n", i); scanf("%d", &seca[i]); } printf("\nFirst Array: "); for (i = 1; i<=3; ++i) { printf("%d ", firsta[i]); } printf("\nSecond Array: "); for (i = 1; i<=3; ++i) { printf("%d ", seca[i]); } printf("\nSum: "); for (i=1; i<=3; i++) { printf("%d ", firsta[i]+seca[i]); } printf("\nDifference: "); for (i=1;i<=3;i++) { printf("%d ", firsta[i]-seca[i]); } printf("\nProduct: "); for (i=1;i<=3;i++) { printf("%d ", firsta[i]*seca[i]); }

}

IT HAS HAPPENED

FINALLY

Yes, I am using a desk fan to cool my CPU. Don’t question it.

[codebirdfantasy]

Next Month’s To-Do List:

- [x] get a HDMI-DVI-D adapter

- [] get a microcard reader just in case…

- [] re-read how flexbox containers work for the Spectrum Terminal project

- [] Maybe… Invest in a book about circuitry… Because this is embarrassingly overwhelming.

-> [] Or find something from the Auckland Library

-> [] Or pirate something from the Internet Archive

[codebirdfantasy]

I wasn’t expecting my Raspberry Pi to heat up so fast. That explains why people invest in heat sinks and cooling fans.

I am learning very slowly

[codebirdfantasy]

Mm yummy pie

Okay so I have learnt that I could use something called Tauri which allows you to build apps via HTML CSS and JS

So I might move my project to Tauri, that way the Spectrum Terminal runs on an app and not a website. But this isn’t a final decision yet, I’m still doing research… Cause, I heard there’s also Electron and a few others…

[codebirdfantasy]

Turns out that installing either of these is harder than it looks… And I would rather not bloat my laptop any more than it’s already been bloated.

What should go here?

[codebirdfantasy]

I may have gotten obsessed...

And I figured out how to edit my terminal so that it now gives me a welcome message and the weather forecast whenever I open the terminal...

For anyone with a bash terminal who might want to do this, I managed it by typing the code: $ nano ~/.bashrc

nano is an editing system, and ~/.bashrc is the what you want to edit. This file runs your shell.

Then, inside the script, you'll want to scroll all the way to the bottom. That's where you can safely add your code. My code looks like this:

echo "Welcome back [MY IRL NAME]" echo "Acquiring today's weather forecast..." echo " " curl wttr.in/[MY CITY]?0Q

This is what that looks like:

wttr is a site that returns the weather forecast in your own city! It's awesome! I use 0 to only show me the weather forecast for today and Q just makes it look more minimal and nice to me, even if all its doing is removing some words.

After this, you want to hit CTRL-O and then ENTER to save your file. Then, CRTL-X to exit.

Close your terminal. Open it up again, and et voila! Your terminal now greets you!!

Did you need it? Well it depends on how much you depend on your terminal, I'm personally falling in love with it and am slowly using it for everything.

The day I install a virtual machine is the day I can finally cry about how far down the rabbit hole I've fallen...

[thebirdfantasy]

I DISCOVERED HOW TO WRITE FANFICTION IN NEOVIM!!!

I AM NOW A FORCE THAT CANNOT BE STOPPED!!

[thebirdfantasy]

how do you save and exit...

[codebirdfantasy]

Nevermind I got it!

it's Esc leave editor mode, then type :w to save, then :q to quit and get back into the directory.

The Spectrum Terminal Project is Now Acessible To Anyone With a Computer

I made a page on this blog for computer users who want to see my lil pet project!

it's called https://codebirdfantasy.tumblr.com/spectrum-terminal

I'll be updating that page every so often whenever I'm bored!

[codebirdfantasy]

When in doubt, find someone on the internet who has already done it.

I've been trying to make a pulsing dot for the status bar but it was so hard!

Then I found this site here where it's already been done! So I pasted and tweaked the code a bit to suit the style of the site, and IT LOOKS SO GOOD! I'm so happy with the result! Thank you Codepen.io

[codebirdfantasy]

So... I may have gotten bored...

...And started making a Spectrum Terminal using HTML and CSS...

The Rotating Earth was something I found on reddit and I tweaked it a bit to suit the style I'm going for

Improved Thunderbird Four's Collision Shape

Log Entry Below:

There was a bug where if you put one of the "boulders" on top of the submarine, it would prevent the submarine from moving upwards properly.

I decided to fix this by improving the submarine collision shape by making it a custom polygon, so now the the "rocks" roll on the collision shape instead of getting stuck and stable on it, and this allows for the submarine to continue to move albeit sometimes slowly. Sometimes they roll right off the submarine too, which is great!
