DesertFOX<p>So on this lazy sunday afternoon I felt like checking out a few more exotic Amiga models in the WinUAE emulator. I had picked an A3000 with ROM v1.4. ... configured it... and it worked... up to a point. Because it asks for a so-called "Super-Kickstart Disk". And this is where it started to get annoying!</p><p>I am usually not too stupid... and I am not an Internet newbie, either. But today it literally took me "hours" to find this simple file called "superkickstart-204-a3000.adf". I eventually found it, and it works. But, why is this so hard? Amiga and all of its ecosystem is pretty much gone since 1994! Stuff like this should not be hiddden or hard to find! Okay, on second thought: Maybe I really AM just stupid.</p><p>Sorry for the rant. - Enjoy the rest of your weekend! 😉 </p><p><a href="https://techhub.social/tags/RetroComputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RetroComputing</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Amiga" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Amiga</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Commodore" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Commodore</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Kickstarter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Kickstarter</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Firmware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Firmware</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/FloppyDisk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FloppyDisk</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/A3000" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>A3000</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/WinUAE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WinUAE</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/emulation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>emulation</span></a></p>

Yazad<p>A general <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/softwareengineering" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>softwareengineering</span></a> question, when using the word <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/embedded" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>embedded</span></a> how do you distinguish between embedded as in <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/firmware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>firmware</span></a> vs <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/embedded" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>embedded</span></a> as in in process like a programming language like <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/lua" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>lua</span></a> that is used in a game engine or a database like <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/sqllite" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>sqllite</span></a> or <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/duckdb" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>duckdb</span></a> that (can potentially) run in the host application. As in do you use different terms like <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/embeddedsystems" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>embeddedsystems</span></a> or <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/EmbeddedSoftware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EmbeddedSoftware</span></a> to refer to one or the other? Or am I completely off base here?</p>

uvok cheetah<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://furry.engineer/@soatok" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>soatok</span></a></span> Hi, I'm uvok. Member of the furry fandom since I don't know when.</p><p>I'm <a href="https://woof.tech/tags/firmware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>firmware</span></a> developer to earn my living. As a consequence, I "kinda lost my passion" for programming in my free time, or I just lack the energy? Not sure which it is. ("I studied electrical engineering, I have to have electronic projects!!!" is a weird pressure I put onto myself for a while).</p><p>Took interest in computer networking a while ago and decided to run an Autonomous System. Now it just runs itself. Still not sure what to do with it. Maybe I'm gonna put it on my CV?</p><p>I occasionally blog. Mostly about technical/computer subjects.</p><p>I started to play <a href="https://woof.tech/tags/guitar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>guitar</span></a> in 2019, took private lessons until my teacher moved one or two years ago. Haven't looked for another one yet, putting it off constantly. I noodle around occasionally and look for sheet music. I play in a group/"an ensemble" with flutists, though!</p><p>I love being outside, walking or bicycling, a few days ago I bought a pedelec which I already tested. It's fun. I like to read, technical subjects, or fantasy.</p><p>I occasionally pick up a not-exactly-hobby / learning subject, do it for some time, and then lose interest again.</p><p>Looking for "meaning" in my life, I help counting votes at elections, am member of a employee organization at my employer, and (occasionally) help at furry conventions (so far in the kitchen and at the front desk).</p><p>Usually too shy to approach other people, as a consequence probably missing out a lot of fruitful connections.</p>
