July 2016 Recap

What I did this month (Hint: More than June)

This article was written in 2016. Many of the author's opinions have matured since then and many of the projects named here are no longer active. Take any advice with a grain of salt (or multiple).

MTGos

I added an Unicode Font (extracted with some random commands from unifont). C9AFBF8
I added an working IDE write driver (ATA PIO). 05941E6
I added a WIP FAT driver (currently outputs root dir listing on FAT12/16) E974AF0
While pushing that commit, github went down and I needed to commit again, to sync the github git servers with the HTTP servers or something
I experimented with the unreal mode, but quickly settled to write a FIRM loader from an multiboot-loaded loader.
A complete rewrite is going to happen.

Network

I installed FreeBSD on my PC
I'm just finished installing FreeBSD on my Picoserver (RPi2)
I wrote an article on home network security
I switched from apache to lighttpd. This means that currently I don't have SSL certificates for my server
I have a "working" mail server! If you want to ask me a question you now can just ask me via email! (root AT dark32 DOT cf)

Security

All activated user accounts on the server now use three/four-factor authentification (pubkey, pass, OTP)
My PC's HDDs are fully encrypted, save for the boot partition
I secured my phone for two factor auth.
32 char passwords

Gaming

Finished Undertale neutral and pacifist routes. Stuck at final boss of genocide.
Err… Should I mention that I'm still stuck at Kirby Planet Robobot's final boss? No?
looks for the cause Err. My 3DS is still broke. And it got even worse when it randomly decided that closing it causes a short contact.
I got Linux from Scratch to run on my Wii … Kinda.

What's next?

Rewrite of MTGos. Got a lot of ideas. Also every but the x86 port is totally broken. AND the coding style. AND the tabulator settings. Took me ages to fix most of the code from 2-width, 3-width, 4-width, 8-width spaces and tabs randomly thrown in.
Finish undertale, I guess?
Save up for a < 11.0 N3DS (Most likely takes more than a month)
Find some subjects interesting enough to talk about on my blog
Fix the fact that I have to login to twitter every time I boot my phone up.

Next article will be one with not so many lists, I promise. But some monthly recap looks better in list form.
