Pipes!

That certainly explains some things

Sadly my Shannara product idea has expired, but it's not too late to support Lego Bill & Ted.

That's a pretty small space bar 👀

Looks beautiful!

I think I prefer the solid colors to the gradient

(no I did not fabricate the 64 by temporarily unfollowing 2 people)

Fun numbers

Going off of forum dates / posts is a lot easier for PotM since it provides a definite list and doesn't risk forgetting stuff (it essentially serves as a recap of the projects section of the forum for the past month)

PotM is based on forum dates, and I didn't make a forum post until January so it goes with January's projects. This is somewhat common; @kermmartian.z80.me's CNN digit recognition project was completed earlier, but goes with December's projects since that's the date of the post

2024 ended strong: Cemetechians worked on calculator, computer, and hardware projects in December 2024, from an on-calculator ez80 ASM IDE to math and 3D graphing tools to a TI-84 Plus-turned-art. See them all and vote for your favorite: www.cemetech.net/news/2025/1/...

The only correct answer is a calculator

Happy New Year!

A view of the sun coming out from behind some clouds. In the foreground there are also some trees (missing leaves because it's winter)

A view over a large piece of rock, looking over a lot of trees and a cloudy sky.

A view of a blue sky with clouds, a tree with leaves, and a lot of trees without leaves.

Went for a hike today!

Been working on this project for a while and it's finally finished! Go check it out :)

Is your app up to date?

YouTube video by KermMartian AI on a CALCULATOR? (Without Internet)

I recently finished documenting a project to identify handwritten digits directly on the TI-84 Plus CE. Draw digits with a mouse, and in 18 seconds, a CNN running on the ez80 CPU classifies them. Video (excuse the clickbait title): youtu.be/olcZdTRdnQg ; technical details: z80.me/blog/calcula...

A square box frame with a teardown of a TI-84 Plus calculator inside. The physical hardware of the calculator has been glued to a backdrop with arrows and information pointing to notable components. At the top left is the screen, followed by the PCB. Below that, from left to right, is the front case of the calculator, the keypad and battery cover, the backup battery cover, and the back case of the calculator.

The parts of the TI-84 Plus calculator have been disassembled and are ready to attach to the backdrop. From left to right is the back case of the calculator, the front case of the calculator, the screen and keypad, the PCB, and the battery cover and smaller backup battery cover.

I turned this broken TI-84 Plus into some kind of art! I've seen people do this with other tech online and I thought it would be fun to design something myself.

It's here!

Justice Hyperdrama concert livestream was awesome! Really hope to see them live in person some day!

A visualization of Advent of Code 2024 Day 2 Part 2 on the TI-84 Plus CE graphing calculator. The robots from the puzzle input, each represented by a gray pixel, have arranged themselves into a Christmas tree after 7858 simulated seconds.

I've completed "Restroom Redoubt" - Day 14 - #AdventOfCode 2024! This was another fun one to visualize, especially part 2!

I've completed "Claw Contraption" - Day 13 - Advent of Code 2024 #AdventOfCode! Just some math today, I found it a lot easier than some of the previous puzzles

Thanks @commandz.bsky.social and @roccolox.bsky.social for help with the stack thing!

Finished Day 12 of #AdventOfCode on the TI-84 Plus CE calculator! Had to move the stack to a different RAM location since it wasn't handling the recursion well, but in the end I got it and the visualization looks super cool!

I've played a lot of different Minecraft worlds and servers, but whether or not that counts as "replaying" seems like a bit of a gray area. Not counting that, I'd say it's a tossup between Pokemon Red (GB version + Fire Red) or Undertale (possibly Kirby's Dreamland 2, I've played that one a lot)
