Innovation Science

Finally! What changed?! Unfortunately, not very much. Some changes have been made under the hood to make it more stable, and we moved to a different box to run the FTP server, but it has remained largely the same. Why was Wait Then???? Moving, mostly. Other things also needed set up, and, of course, lack of motivation. But Wait, I still Have Plans! Fun fact: The Collective is really a single hard drive that I got second hand! That's terrifying! So, instead of praying to the physical media gods that it won't crash, I have decided to invest in some M-Discs. This will preserve data for around 900 years longer than I'll be alive, so I won't have to worry about that any time soon. I'm also going to be looking into expanding our storage so we can continue collecting data. Sorry for the Short Blog! I'm really tired. I'll update this blog post or make a new one with more information on my future plans for The Collective.

Updates I'm baaaaack! Let's Catch Up I finally decided to pick up this project yet again and, with some better soldering skills (and tools! Pinecil is great!) under my belt, I successfully flashed  Larry's SRXE Bootloader  to a board and fixed the UART connection, which means that I can now develop my very own firmware for the Smart Response XE! Well, by start, I really mean that I've already started, and it's really starting to take shape. Care For A Demo? By the way, if you're curious as to what Innonet is, I'll talk about it briefly in this blog post, and more information on it will come soon ™. The firmware will be uploaded to a  GitHub repository  in a preview state by the time this blog post releases. What Exactly is Done so Far? So far, the UI is about 70% done (most of it works, need to implement other dropdown menus and fix some bugs). If you have a keen eye, you will notice the header said DremXE, as opposed to the original name (which was Dremduin...

IG... What? Innovation Science Internal Git System (IGS) is my brand new Gitea server. It's the new home for my projects, like DremDOS, DremJS, and DremOS (whenever that'll be worked on ;)). It's public to access and view, but contributing is somewhat locked down. See the "Some Questions you may Ask" section for more information on that. I'm still working out some kinks in the system, and some pages still have yet to be customized, but for the most part it is fully functional from this point forward. Why Move From Github? I thought it'd be fun. To be serious, I like to own my own data, and I've been "mildly inconvenienced" by Github more than a few times. What they do over there is amazing, and I sincerely doubt that I'll stop using it entirely, but I just think it's time to move on. I also prefer that the services and applications I use to be open source, which Gitea is. Some Questions you may Ask Can I Create my own Repos and Contri...
