or what if I just `mem::transmute`d it
this feels more in the spirit of embedded -
why waste valuable cycles on this ESP32 parsing/validating input, when you can simply not hold it wrong
-
oh, the reason why this SD card reader isn't working is because I forgot to connect the power
-
I've been trying to figure this out for like an hour
-
ah, the reason why it still doesn't work is because uh
the reader has onboard circuitry whose only purpose is to make a 3V3 SD card require 5V, by converting the voltage both ways. why -
ok so my new plan is to get out of having to pay €2 + shipping for a working SD card reader (on which I would put a schedule file + a bunch of pokemon sprites), by generating a big pile of JSON and turning that into compile time constants and embedding the images they reference in the binary
I've got 4MB of flash on this ESP32, I sure hope this actually fits w -
arrested for rust crimes
-
ok this doesn't actually look half bad if the variables have actual names, don't mind the transmuting
-
ooh but now that I'm doing rust crimes at build time anyway, I could like. precompute all the cryptography and checksums and stuff
this doesn't need to be nearly this optimised, but I have the technology -
it's 4AM and I can't sleep, but I'd be the envy of the playground in 2007

ayy, my Pokémon event spoofer got accepted as an art project at 38c3! :drgn_sparkle:
if you have a copy of Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, Platinum, Heart Gold or Soul Silver (even some ROM hacks work), bring it by for some Mystery Gifts
there'll be re-runs of old events (Shaymin, Darkrai, etc.), some unreleased content (The Azure Flute), and a silly illegal Pokémon to collect - all hacked to allow DS-to-DS sharing, even after the end of the event -
