Strlcpy@2

A basic Death Stranding 2D demake targeting SNES, GBA, PS1, Windows, DOS and whatever I can make it work on in one binary. So the single file is a valid Windows program, a GBA ROM, a PS1 disc image, a bootable PC disk image, etc.

I’m really chipping away at it one bit at a time. I already have the most crucial bit, which is the very start of the file which needs to be a DOS EXE header, x86 machine code and ARM machine code at the same time. But at every step new practical difficulties arise.

The specific bit I’m working on now is writing a custom linker, because no regular linker script magic is going to make a normal linker do what I need, and it turns out slicing intermediate binaries isn’t going to cut it either.

I went with the simplest self-hosting I could think of for my private repos:

ssh my-server 'git init --bare git/foo.git'
git clone my-server:git/foo.git

You don’t get a web UI or anything but that’s OK for me, I just want the repo.

Debian mostly. I appreciate the democratic, non corporate governance, the classic Free Software ethos, the stability, and their not going blindly along with upstream defaults (e.g. telemetry).

My server runs OpenBSD because I find it more tightly designed, and simpler. Laptop Fedora because the hardware wasn’t originally well supported by Debian stable.
