Normally, I'd post about new features and information to Twitter. However, now I believe it's important to organize these better in the form of a proper blog!
Here, you can find progress reports for my projects and other random things.
My more random ideas and blurbs of text will still be on Twitter.
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...
The Collective is Moving The Collective has been moved to a private, self-hosted Pydio Cells server. If you would like access to The Collective, please leave a comment with a way to contact you (email, Discord username, Twitter handle, etc.) and I'll consider giving you a limited user account. A public access account is being considered. Related link: https://innovation-inc.org/services/thecollective/
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.
