GitLab is currently the canonical "source of truth" for my personal Git repositories</a>.

DOOM on the ULX3S Part 1: Introduction

In the embedded systems world, it's a right of passage for hackers to get a piece of hardware to run DOOM</a>. I was recently rummaging around my box of development boards and I rediscovered my awesome ULX3S</a> which would be an awesome candidate for me to learn how to port DOOM. Not only is it a powerful dev board based around the Lattice ECP5 FPGA</a>, but thanks to the amazing work of a huge community of people, it also has a fully open-source toolchain</a> and a huge ecosystem of compatible gateware.

Why Build This Blog?</h2>
In recent years, big internet companies have siloed huge swaths of the internet into their platforms, all in the name of capturing every bit of data from our interactions and selling it for a huge profit.
I'm a firm believer in taking ownership of one's information presence online and being in control of the data that is created and shared. This blog is my attempt to not only express myself, share my personal projects, and let others know about who I am, but also to learn the various technologies of the modern web to enable my own digital soverignty.
