Axe / How Axe works for the Assembly adverse
« on: April 23, 2011, 09:40:07 pm »
Axe works in mysterious ways, and some of them lead to optimizations that don't make sense unless it's known what's going on.
First off, whenever Axe encounters a variable, it puts that variable into HL, no matter what. Having to do ld HL varVAR every time is slow, so use constants whenever possible.
-> puts whatever is at HL into the following variable
Math operands put the proceeding value, be it a var or a constant, into HL and performs the operation on HL using the following value.
This is why you put constants at the end of the maths when possible (You have been doing that, right? :P), so that 1 becomes 1 in the code instead of ld HL 1.

PS: Am I doing this right?

Miscellaneous / Trying to start a webcomic

I'm trying to start a webcomic. I've got a name (Frameless Comic) and all the other comic bits, I'm just missing the web part. Any advice or help on anything at all, anyone?

Axe / Hash
« on: April 20, 2011, 11:01:26 am »
I'm trying to create an implementation of SHA-2 on calc, but I'm having trouble figuring out the diagram on Wikipedia. Specifically, I have no idea what it means by carry-free addition. Isn't that just xor in binary? And what, exactly, are R and W and where do they come from?

I have officially announced my attempt to create a version of n+ for the 84+SE. I need some recognizable 8x8 sprites, especially of the all the ninja's poses. Anyone who creates a sprite that gets used will be credited.

Humour and Jokes / Quantum Computing

Y'know,
If they ever figure out quantum computers
There's going to be a little black box in each and every one of them
with a sticker on it
bearing the legend, "
Warning: Do not open.
Observing the contents of this box will cause your computer to cease functioning.

Humour and Jokes / Vista shutdown fail
« on: April 18, 2011, 12:29:24 am »
This just happened. Really.
First, some background: the family laptop runs Windows Vista. It came preinstalled. Nothing we can do. As we all know, Vista is a lesson unto itself on inefficient code. Even with the laptop's 2GHz processor, it takes 20 minutes to boot, and another 20 to login. Shutdown isn't as bad; it usually takes 5-10 minutes.
Tonight was not usually.
Tonight, the laptop took so long to shut down it actually triggered the screensaver. I stopped the screensaver to reveal--the login screen!

Miss those old seven-segment calculator displays that you could spell funny things on? Me too! That's why I made this. Put in your string, and watch the obsloleteness magic happen.

I actually made this a long time (relatively) ago, but I never got around to sharing it. Here it is, and enjoy.

Humour and Jokes / Imaginary OmnomIRC quotes
« on: April 15, 2011, 12:31:30 pm »
I've thought up some conversations that never happened.
Here's one.

 What's with all the profanity?
We like profanity
Profanity is our friend
In fact, we'd marry profanity
If profanity wasn't a bitch;
'Cause we prefer our brides human
Not canine

OmnomIRC Development / It's Broken
« on: April 15, 2011, 12:08:02 pm »
I don't know what, exactly, happened, but the new OmnomIRC is completely broken for me. I'm running Chrome, and nothing works at all in it. On the dedicated page, it even says Larger View. None of the links work, and I can't post.
