Hello, space explorer! Welcome to my star-studded virtual home, safely tucked
away in the coziest fringes of the great web beneath the deepest stellar ocean.
I'm the person behind this site! just like everyone always says, this is my own
little corner of the internet. I use this space for just about anything, though
i mostly use it as a digital journal, of both my personal life and interests.

This site contains javascript, iframes, and sound in autoplay! While made for
desktop browsing, almost all pages on the site should be mobile friendly more or
less. I try to make most of my pages responsive to different screen sizes and
mobile, though the intended viewing size is 1080px on desktop! if you're
returning, please CTRL+F5 or delete your browser cache if anything looks broken!
Please note that my site is still a work in progress, so it may still have some
bugs. Also, autoplay will not work the same on iOS devices.

The technical support button and the update log are only visible on a computer!
I recommend browsing the page in an environment other than your phone.
For technical support, click here with your mobile device or use the nav bar!

——————————⋆✦⋆——————————

If you see any errors on my website, please let me know and feel free to contact
me or discuss them in the livechat. You can also check support to see if any of
the proposed solutions fix it!

Technical support updated 10.17.2024!

MUSIC ON AUTOPLAY DOESN'T WORK!

Automatic playback may not work the same way on iOS devices or other phones.
Check your browser settings; some browsers have settings that block automatic
playback of multimedia content. Make sure that autoplay is enabled in your
browser settings. Also, ensure that your browser is up to date, as updates can
fix errors and improve performance!

You can try testing the website on another browser to see if the issue persists.
Finally, check the website's permissions. Ensure that the website has permission
to play sound in your browser! If you are on a phone, autoplay may not function,
so try using the music player manually by clicking on the music icon. :3

SOME IMAGES ARE BROKEN!

If you're returning, please CTRL+F5 or delete your browser cache if anything
looks broken! Please note that my site is still a work in progress, so it may
still have some bugs. :D

LOADING SCREEN NOT WORKING!

I have two different loading screens depending on your device's browser
environment. If it's a desktop computer, it will be different than the loading
screen on a phone. This website is not fully optimized for phones, so you may
notice some errors or differences. I recommend you browse the site on your PC or
laptop instead.

However, if the loading screen doesn't work on your phone, please check your
internet connection and reload the page. If the problem persists, let me know!

I HAVE A RECOMMENDATION

If you have any suggestions for a new section to add to the page, new music or
something new, you can comment on the live chat or send me an email in the
social section. I'm always reading people's comments and I'd love to hear your
opinion. If you want to add a new feature to the page, share your ideas with me!

with Midnight, my cat! Skye is a leviathan, a whale-like sea dragon that lives
in the oceans, and can take different forms, including a human form. I don't
have much lore about them to be honest, but perhaps in the future I can add more
information about it and even create a specific section for its information.

data ✦

I'm a tech student from a sleepy town in the middle of nowhere. I am fluent in
both Spanish and English. Programming is an everyday part of my life... I go to
school for it, I do it for work, but also I really enjoy it. I have a passion
for all things and I also love decorating my everyday items and personal space
to be as cute and personalized as possible!

I love forests and nature. I currently take care of plants at home with my own
greenhouse. Unfortunately, I had to stop growing for the winter period and I had
to put my project on hold, but I'm looking forward to spring 2025! I hope to be
able to grow lots of things soon. You can usually see my plants on twitter (x)
but I'll try to add a gallery in the hobbies section about the care of the
plants I have or the few I have left.

Character Showcase
My kinnies!

Several of my friends helped me choose, since I didn't know which characters
suited me.

Please read carefully! This will be for any sort of website you need! a personal
one, priv one, or even professional ones

T.o.s updated 10.17.2024!

——————————⋆✦⋆——————————

✦ I only do commissions for pro-standard carrds! (I however can sell non-pro
copies of my carrds). I also don't make overlay designs nor do I charge for
them.✦ For international customers, I accept only paypal and ko-fi! and for
customers in the USA, I can also accept cash app! you can pay through ko-fi if
you'd like, but paypal is preferred.✦ I will only start your commission after I
have received the payment in advance, no refunds after one week after
depositing, unless it is an emergency no refunds will be made after that time.✦
You can edit your carrd after the transfer, but you must be aware that you can
mess something up.✦ The prices of a website vary from $80 to $180 depending of
the complexity! For the simplest ones, the price ranges from $15 to $50.✦ I will
discuss w/you about what kind of carrd design you would like (how many pages you
want, which pictures you would like for me to use, etc). Please have a clear
idea when commissioning me unless you want a website based on creative freedom.✦
Depending on the complexity of your website, the commission will be done as fast
as I can, but again, I will stay in contact with you and update you if anything
happens so i'm unable to work on it.✦ I do not accept commissions with
deadlines. Don't pressure me when it comes to commissions, I ALWAYS work with
more than one comm and by specific order.✦ You can always ask me for help or for
new graphics even after i've completed the commission! however, I can take
additional fee for future changes or fixes depending of the complexity.✦ All
websites will be optimized for desktop. Please let me know if you want me to
optimize it for mobile too!✦ I will be creating the carrd on my account and then
transfer it over to you through carrd's transfer feature if you want that. All
you'll need to do is provide me the email you used to sign up for your carrd
account!✦ Credit on your carrd will be appreciated! i'll pre-code it in when i
make the carrd for you. I request for it to be kept there though!✦ Always check
the Trello queue to see the status of your commission! You are free to ask any
questions!✦ My delivery times vary depending on the commission and complexity.
Please note that some websites may take a while to be created, sometimes it can
take 7 days or even a few weeks or more.

BUILDING YOUR FIRST WEBSITE: BASICS OF HTML WITH SOME CSS AND RESOURCES!

——————————⋆✦⋆——————————

Hewoo!! Mastering the basics of HTML is easier than you think, especially when
you can find an HTML tutorial for beginners online that suits your needs. By
understanding the fundamental principles of HTML, you can create stunning web
pages that are visually appealing and easy to use. To learn how to use HTML, we
need to know that it is nothing more than a way of structuring, almost like a
skeleton, and so, CSS and Javascript are part of this skeleton to give it form
and functionality!In short, HTML (Hypertext Markup Language), is a fairly simple
language. It consists of different elements that we use to structure a web page!

HTML STRUCTURE

HTML uses tags to identify different types of content and structure within a web
page. Tags are surrounded by angle brackets and the content they encapsulate is
placed between the opening and closing tags. It is a simple language consisting
of a few basic elements. These elements include the document type declaration,
the html tag, the header tag, and the body tag.The document type declaration
tells the browser which version of HTML the document is using. The html tag
defines the beginning and end of an HTML document. The header tag in HTML
contains information about the document, such as the title, while the body tag
contains the content of the document.HTML tags are used to define the structure
and content of a web page. There are many different types of HTML tags, each
with its own function. Some of the most commonly used HTML tags include heading
tags, paragraph tags, image tags, and link tags.Every HTML document consists of
two parts: the head and the body. The head contains information about the
document, such as the title and any metadata, while the body contains the
content of the document. Here is an example of a basic HTML document structure:

Et voila! Now you have your skeleton for your first page. First we have Doctype.
The <html> element wraps all the content of the page, also known as the root
element. We should always include the lang attribute to declare the language of
the page. The <head> element is a container for everything you want to include
but not content you display to your users.Next, the first meta element is used
to set the character set to UTF-8, which includes most characters in the written
language. The second meta element specifies the browser viewport. This setting
is for a mobile-optimized website. Then, <title> is what sets the title of the
page. And lastly we have the <body> element which contains all the content on
the page. Now, why don't we add some style? Follow me! For this, we will put a
background on the website. It can be a color, a video or a simple image. In my
case, we will put an image. Then we will choose the font for each text, both the
one inside <h1> and <p> element.For this, we will be using CSS. And what is CSS
(Cascading Style Sheets)? The main purpose of CSS is to improve the presentation
of a web page. With this language, you can create responsive web pages that
adapt to different devices and screen sizes. CSS is a different language than
HTML, which is the markup language used to surround the content of a web page.
Both languages work together to present information to the audience!
Using CSS feels like wielding a magic wand. With just a few clicks, you can
transform colors, fonts, and layouts, turning a dull website into a stunning
masterpiece—it's like having a magical paintbrush at your fingertips!Now we will
use CSS. Keep in mind that, usually in Visual Studio Code, the files with each
programming language are separated but linked, however, in this case we will do
everything together. In case you want to do it like the first way, set the
following code under <title>, to link it: <link rel="stylesheet"
href="style.css">. And now, open your new file and name it style.css! and that's
it, you are ready to start.Now we will do it the second way, with everything
together:

If you pay attention, we have specified the fonts for each text, as well as set
the wallpaper that needs to have our URL that directs to the image we will use!
Now, we can use Javascript to make it more complex, however, I am not going to
expand on that, but I will teach you more about it and stay on this basis.As you
can see, HTML gives the website its structure, but it doesn't control how the
website looks. CSS, on the other hand, is used to add style and visual design to
a website. CSS controls the appearance of HTML elements, such as font size,
color, layout, and more. It allows you to create a consistent and visually
appealing design across your entire website.So, while HTML provides the content
and structure of a website, CSS adds the style and design. They work together to
create a visually appealing and functional website.And finally, before launching
your website, it's essential to test it thoroughly to ensure that everything is
working correctly. Test your website in different web browsers and on different
devices to make sure it looks and functions as intended. Once you're satisfied
with your website, it's time to launch it. Here is the website!

You can also center the text and it would look like this!

RESOURCES FOR HTML AND WEBSITE DESIGN

There are many resources available online for mastering HTML and website design.
Every HTML tutorial has a factor that stands out for it. Here are some of the
best resources to get started:✦ W3Schools - A comprehensive online resource for
learning HTML, CSS, and other web development technologies.

POST WITH RESOURCES FOR STUDYING MATHEMATICS, ALGEBRA, CALCULUS AND GEOMETRY
CONTENT!

——————————⋆✦⋆——————————

Studying math can be difficult for some, but it is not impossible and I want to
share with you all the necessary resources to study the subjects you like!
Whether for your projects, homework or exams. I would also like to share my
study methods and tips and practices to improve in this subject. Personally, I
was never good at anything that had to do with math, I always had a hard time
with algebra and geometry and I spent long hours at school studying with help to
be able to pass my exams, but then I understood that it is not that I am bad at
this, but that I was simply giving it a different approach and I needed to
understand it from another angle.Some may think that math is boring, however,
studying math helps us find patterns and structure in our lives. In practice,
math helps us price things, create graphs, build websites, build skyscrapers,
and generally understand how things work or predict how they might change over
time and under different conditions.Math is all about problem solving. Not only
will you learn how to solve math problems, but the skills you develop while
working on math functions will develop your problem solving skills in other
ways!The importance of math can be seen in hidden ways and in everyday use, all
around us: computers, airplanes, body scanners, software, coding, and much more.
Do you know what the golden ratio is? By studying math we discovered it and
society was able to use it to our advantage: architects design buildings,
scientists apply it to the recurring spiral arrangement of nature, and even
artists use ratios in their artwork.

A POST DEDICATED TO ONE OF MY FAVORITE MOVIES THAT I LOVE THE MOST, TRON:
LEGACY!

——————————⋆✦⋆——————————

"The Grid. A digital frontier. I tried to picture clusters of information as
they moved through the computer. What did they look like? Ships? motorcycles?
Were the circuits like freeways? I kept dreaming of a world I thought I'd never
see" - That's how I fell in love with this beautiful science fiction movie, a
universe full of possibilities within a computer system. TRON: Legacy has been
one of the few movies that I really enjoyed from the first moment, its visual
effects, its landscapes, its soundtrack, characters and story! TRON meant a lot
to me from the beginning because it marked a before and after for me, a sense of
intense love for how computers and the virtual world work.I have always been
passionate about technology and an enthusiast, so much so that at the age of
nine I installed my first custom firmware on my first Nintendo DS. I also
studied programming languages and spent hours inspecting my consoles. The sequel
to the movie “TRON” (1982) called “TRON: Legacy” (2010) , beyond its aesthetic
or narrative quality, seems beautiful in many ways to me and I would like to
share a little of my vision about it!The original Tron released in the summer of
1982 and follows the character of Kevin Flynn , played by Jeff Bridges. Kevin
Flynn is a programmer who is transported inside the computer world, and
throughout the film, we follow him as he journeys through this foreign world in
order to escape. At the time, the film was criticized for its flat characters
and story, but it was also applauded for its groundbreaking visual effects. The
original Tron became a cult classic and is still remembered for its impact on
the world of visual effects. This brings us to the creation of Tron: Legacy,
which was released almost thirty years later.

THE GRID: THE SCIENCE BEHIND

The Grid is one of the most unique worlds I've ever seen and that's because of
how striking its visual design is, and a lot of what is shown and talked about
is based on real-life computer science. I think this is because of the contrast
between the dark environments and the bright neon, which makes everything pop.
Also, the art direction allows everything in the world to look elegant. The
light cycles, light discs, and flying ships are all such beautiful creations
that they draw the eye without being over the top in design. Everything has a
clean and simple look that really draws the audience into the world.Within The
Grid, everything has a purpose, from the light cycles to the individual programs
that complete specific tasks. Everything works together to keep the system
running and fully operational. How does it work? What lies behind it? Well, for
its operation, computers require software that provides specific data necessary
for information processing. Once the desired information is obtained, it can be
used internally or transferred to another computer or electronic component.Is
data zipping through the computer resembling motorcycles? Not exactly. However,
it serves as a vivid analogy for illustrating how memory moves between
integrated circuits. Within The Grid, every program possesses its unique
identity disk, encapsulating its memories. When a computer chip's task involves
transferring memory to another chip, envision Tron's light cycles in action.
Data relocation within The Grid unfolds along virtual highways. If programming
commands memory migration between chips, the process mirrors the efficient
movement depicted by light cycles. Carrying the identity disk (memory) on their
backs, programs ferry memories to different destinations – or chips.Computer
chips consist of silicon and metal, with each integrated circuit housing
multiple transistors that generate electrical signals. They execute functions by
communicating via assembly language, a specific type of programming. Integrated
circuits primarily serve three key functions:✦ Memory Transfer Between Chips
✦ Execution of Mathematical Equations via Logic Units
✦ Decision-Making and Instruction Creation based on those decisionsGuided by
programming, computer chips carry out instructions. Upon receiving an
instruction, it typically takes around five cycles for execution. Yet, this
process can be expedited through a technique known as pipelining. Pipelining
breaks down instructions into stages, aiming to keep the entire processor
occupied simultaneously. Each processing unit handles different parts of the
instructions. Through this approach, an instruction can be executed within a
single transistor cycle.Pipelining is a technique used to improve the CPU's
throughput by allowing multiple instructions to be processed simultaneously at
different stages of the execution cycle. This is analogous to an assembly line
in a factory, where each stage performs part of the task.For example, while one
instruction is being decoded, another can be fetched from memory, and yet
another can be executed. This overlapping of stages increases the CPU's
efficiency and overall performance.

Delving deeper into the mechanics of identity disks in Tron, computer chips
utilize two main memory types: ROM (Read-Only Memory) and RAM (Random Access
Memory).ROM serves as a permanent storage medium on the computer, housing
essential information that remains intact even during system shutdowns. This
mirrors the functionality of identity disks, which are designed to stay with
programs consistently, akin to ROM's static nature. Even after a system reboot,
the stored memory persists.Conversely, RAM gets wiped clean when a computer
powers down, erasing all stored data. This scenario parallels a program in Tron
losing its identity disk. Explored further in the Tron Uprising prequel series,
a program losing its memory disk results in memory loss. Essentially becoming a
blank slate, similar to RAM after a computer restart! :)That the grid is nothing
more than a computer system doesn't sound so far-fetched when we observe what
happens as software programs become increasingly intelligent and algorithms
become an important part of self-writing programs that learn and change, going
beyond what the programmers initially intended them to do. Would a computer
program with personality and aspirations have the same sense of consciousness as
a person? Would you be the same person if you were uploaded into a computer? I
constantly think about the wonders this movie brought us, not only its music,
but its concepts and all the science behind it!A computer, in its simplest form,
consists of a Central Processing Unit (CPU), a memory unit, and an Input/Output
unit, which are interconnected through a set of communication lines known as a
BUS. A bus in a computer is a communication system that transfers data between
components of a computer or network. It's made up of a series of lines that
carry different types of information, such as data being transmitted from the
CPU to RAM. But let's delve deeper into their structures!Hardware, in computer
architecture, is responsible for performing calculations, displaying
information, and enabling the system to interact through peripherals like the
keyboard to input the data on which we want to work. Software dictates to
hardware what it should do: from processing information to how and where to
display it. Additionally, it manages communication among the different hardware
components of a computer.These are the primary components of computer
architecture. You probably already knew about them in many cases! In summary, a
microprocessor (CPU) is the brain of a computer, responsible for executing
program instructions and coordinating the system's operations. Let's break down
the key components and processes involved:

ABOUT COMPUTER SCIENCE

The ISA (Instruction set architecture) is a critical component of a CPU,
defining the set of instructions the processor can execute. It acts as an
interface between software and hardware. Different processors have different
ISAs, which can affect compatibility, performance, and power consumption.✦
Instruction Types: Instructions are typically categorized into arithmetic,
logical, data transfer, and control flow instructions. For example, an ADD
instruction performs addition, while a LOAD instruction moves data from memory
to a register.
✦ Addressing Modes: These define how the operand of an instruction is chosen.
Common addressing modes include immediate (direct value), direct (specific
memory address), indirect (address stored in a register), and indexed (base
address plus an offset).
✦ Registers: The ISA defines the set of registers available for use. These
include general-purpose registers, special-purpose registers (like the program
counter or stack pointer), and status registers.The execution cycle of a CPU
involves several stages, each crucial for processing instructions:✦ Fetch: The
CPU reads the next instruction from memory into the instruction register.
✦ Decode: The control unit decodes the instruction to determine the required
actions and operands.
✦ Execute: The ALU performs the operation specified by the instruction.
✦ Memory Access: If the instruction involves memory, the CPU reads or writes
data to the specified address.
✦ Write-back: The result of the operation is written back to the register or
memory.Each of these stages must be precisely timed and coordinated to ensure
smooth execution of instructions! And here we have the main components:✦ Control
Unit (CU): The CU manages the instruction fetch, decode, and control signals. It
generates the necessary control signals for other components and coordinates the
overall operation of the CPU.
✦ Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU): The ALU performs arithmetic operations (like
addition and subtraction) and logical operations (like AND, OR, NOT). It is a
fundamental part of the CPU that handles computation.
✦ Registers: Registers are small, fast storage locations within the CPU used for
holding data and instructions temporarily. Common registers include the
accumulator, program counter, instruction register, and general-purpose
registers.
✦ Cache: The cache is high-speed memory located close to the CPU core. It stores
frequently accessed data and instructions to reduce the time needed to access
memory!

And there you have it! An almost complete explanation of computer science. Of
course, I haven't written in depth or written down the hardware structures and
gates, although they are also fundamental parts... However, you may think, how
amazing is TRON if we think about all this? Computers are considered so perfect
and beautiful for a number of reasons. Their precision in executing complex
algorithms, their efficiency in processing data at high speed, and their elegant
design in both hardware and user interfaces all contribute to this perception.
Furthermore, their versatility in adapting to a wide range of tasks and their
constant innovation that pushes the boundaries of what is possible, along with
the empowerment they provide by enabling creativity, connectivity, and
problem-solving on a global scale, combine to create a form of beauty in
computing technology.

JUSTICE AND PROTECTION FOR MEXICO'S HUMPBACK WHALES

——————————⋆✦⋆——————————

Hello! This post is different from the others due to its seriousness. This is a
translation into English of the situation in the Gulf of California and the
dangers faced by whales in these waters. I decided to translate all the
information so it reaches more people, as I am a lover of marine life and I am
concerned about the well-being of these beautiful creatures. If you are also
concerned about this, please sign this campaign to prevent whales' lives from
being put at risk. Check for more information at whalesorgas.org! and please
sign here.

THE WHALES OF MEXICO ARE IN GRAVE DANGER

To the President of Mexico, Claudia Sheinbaum, her government team, and her
counterparts in the United States, President Joe Biden, and responsible
agencies:The transport of methane gas from the United States through the Gulf of
California, in Mexico, puts the lives of whales and thousands of other species
at risk, in addition, it threatens the lives of communities on both sides of the
border and contributes to the emission of more greenhouse gases. The citizens of
Mexico and the United States demand that you stop this project: the construction
of the Sierra Madre gas pipeline and the Saguaro Energía liquefied “natural” gas
plant in Puerto Libertad. The world demands that we leave the fossil era and
stop sacrificing territories and populations.Demand that whales be protected
from the threat that huge methane tankers passing through the Gulf of
California, a place considered the Aquarium of the World, would represent.The
Gulf of California is considered the Aquarium of the World and a World Heritage
Site for its high biodiversity. It is home and breeding ground for various
species of whales and thousands of other species. However, it is being
threatened because Mexico Pacific Holdings and other US companies want to use
Mexico as a route to transport millions of tons of methane gas from Texas to the
Asian market.The Sierra Madre gas pipeline megaproject and the liquefied
“natural” gas (LNG) plant in Puerto Libertad, Sonora aim to turn the Gulf of
California into a Sacrifice Zone for the fossil industry, worsening the climate
crisis and damaging the health of various communities. Due to the noise caused
by ships and collisions with whales, this project is completely incompatible
with the life and presence of marine mammals in the Gulf of California, but you
can help us stop it with your signature and your mobilization.Whales or gas? It
is clear that we say: whales!

The construction of fossil gas terminals, coupled with seabed dredging and
increased maritime traffic, not only represents a significant threat to the
bio-diversity of the Gulf of California but could also mark the beginning of
irreparable damage to this fragile ecosystem. The Gulf of California, known as
the "Aquarium of the World," is a crucial refuge for many cetacean species that
depend on these waters for their survival. The anticipated changes, such as the
increase in ship traffic, will inevitably lead to more collisions with whales
and dolphins, potentially resulting in even higher mortality rates for these
animals.The underwater noise from ships and dredging activities threatens to
disorient cetaceans, interfering with their communication, feeding, and
reproductive patterns, potentially forcing them to abandon vital areas for their
existence. More- over, this project will not only have local effects but will
also contribute to climate change, with long-term impacts on the biodiversity of
the Gulf of California, including its iconic whales.This is a critical moment
for protecting the Gulf of California and its cetaceans. If we allow these
projects to proceed unchecked, we may be signaling the fate of one of the
planet's most important marine ecosystems. The actions we take today will
determine whether whales and other inhabitants of the Gulf will continue to call
these waters their home or whether the impact will be so profound that the
damage will be irreversible. Now more than ever, it is essential to act to
protect this invaluable ecosystem before it is too late.

LET'S PROTECT THE WHALES!

A week ago a portrait of this whale’s eye went viral on all the content scraping
pages. Days later, her upper jaw was ripped off by a speeding vessel. The video
just emerged. I think everyone who marveled at her eye should see it. "Sweet
Girl" - This young humpback whale was hit head on by a dirty machinist in Tahiti
on October 8th. The video is mirrored with sounds to hear the vocalizations of
the humpback. Sweet Girl has died after many hours of agony.MarineTraffic
documents indicate that ships (ferry note) arrive at the port in 30 days!!! Even
though the limit is 5 knots and we are in the middle of whale season!! An
absolute disgrace. ENOUGH OF IMPUNITY!!Please visit Marine Education and
Research Society www.mersociety.org. They do research on humpback whales and a
lot of education about threats to whales and boating near them. I'll also
suggest MareCet. They are an NGO based out of Malaysia, supporting dolphin,
dugong, and whale research and policy including population assessments,
behavioral studies, and human-wildlife interactions.Note that they partner with
WCN's WildNET for payment processing of donations from US residents (making it
tax-deductible), so for people able to give, you'll be redirected to WildNET and
then can choose MareCet to receive the funds -- and it's fully 100% of the money
donated (maybe minus the credit card fees).

MODDING MY 3DS AND FUTURE PROJECTS

——————————⋆✦⋆——————————

Hewoo! In this short post, I will talk a bit about my experience with custom
firmware on gaming consoles. However, I want to clarify that this is not a
guide, as any method I may offer for doing this with your 3DS may not be up to
date for current dates, considering that these methods are constantly updated
and many things are still works in progress. However, if you wish to do this
with your 3DS, I recommend using this website that contains a complete guide on
how to install Luma3DS custom firmware on your retro console. Likewise, if you
want to perform the same process on your Wii to run Homebrew, here is this
website with a guide to modify the console and run unsigned code.

OVERVIEW

Custom firmware refers to modified or alternative software that is installed on
hardware devices such as smartphones, routers, gaming consoles, and other
electronic devices. This custom firmware provides users with additional
features, tweaks, and functionalities that are not typically available in the
manufacturer's official firmware! Custom firmware is often developed and
maintained by a community of enthusiasts and developers who contribute to its
improvement and provide support to users through forums, online communities, and
documentation.When Nintendo officially ended production of the 3DS in September
2020, it wasn’t exactly a surprise. For one thing, some variation of the
handheld system had been on the market since 2011. Which is not to say the
product line had become stagnant: the system received a considerable
mid-generation refresh, and there was even a more affordable variant introduced
that dropped the eponymous stereoscopic 3D effect, but nearly a decade is still
a fairly long life in the gaming industry. Of course Nintendo’s focus on the
Switch, a hybrid device that blurs the line between console and handheld games,
undoubtedly played a part in the decision to retire what could effectively be
seen as a competing product!

Here's the exciting aspect of homebrew on the 3DS: every hardware version,
regardless of its region or firmware version, can be modified with just an SD
card and open-source software. Furthermore, with Nintendo now focusing on new
endeavors, it seems the community has emerged victorious. With no new hardware
revisions anticipated and even if Nintendo attempted to release a firmware
update to deter users from running unofficial software on their 3DS, they cannot
compel you to install it.There are multiple exploits available depending on the
firmware version running on your 3DS. However, one of the simplest and quickest
ways to start running non-Nintendo software on your 3DS involves leveraging a
vulnerability in the system's Internet browser. By placing the necessary files
on the SD card, all you have to do is direct the 3DS browser to a specific URL
to activate the exploit. Utilizing the browser's capability to interpret QR
codes means you don't even have to manually input the URL; simply scan a special
code, and you're well on your way to exploring homebrew applications!

SO... WHAT IS OPEN-SOURCE SOFTWARE?

Open-source software refers to computer software with a source code that is
openly available for users to view, modify, and distribute. This type of
software is typically developed in a collaborative and transparent manner,
allowing anyone to contribute to its improvement and use it for various
purposes! Open-source projects often involve a community of developers who
collaborate to improve the software. This community-driven approach can lead to
rapid innovation, bug fixes, and feature enhancements.

3DS SOFTWARE

Generally speaking, 3DS software comes in two distinct forms. Smaller tools and
programs are likely to be offered as a .3dsx file, which is a self-contained
executable that you can run through a tool called Homebrew Launcher that gets
installed along with Luma3DS. This works well enough for one-off applications,
but can become annoying as it takes several steps to start the software from a
cold boot.The alternative, preferred for larger and more complex pieces of
software, is the CTR Importable Archive (CIA) or .cia file. These archives
contain not only the software itself, but the necessary metadata to actually
install them as if they were an official game or application downloaded from the
Nintendo eShop. Since software installed via CIA appears on the 3DS’s main menu,
it’s much faster and easier to access than going through the Homebrew Launcher
first.With that said, I also want to share with you some of my resources for
getting games in that format and putting them on my 3DS! Some of these resources
are Hshop and Romsforever.The Nintendo 3DS features a dual-core ARM11 processor,
256 MB of RAM, and 128 MB of VRAM. It has two screens, with the top one capable
of displaying glasses-free 3D graphics. It supports SD cards for storage, and
this is what we use to install custom firmware on it. To be fair, unusual
systems are no strangers to videogame developers. But in this case, 3DS
programmers only have access to the ARM11 MPCore. Furthermore, once you reach
the ‘Operating System’ section, you’ll learn the abilities with this cluster are
further restricted.In any case, no matter the console revision, programmers base
their algorithms on the multi-threading model: the program groups sequences of
instructions using threads, these are then dispatched by the operating system to
the physical cores, as the former deems fit. Once a novelty for Xbox 360
software, this standard provides a layer of abstraction that blinds the
developers from writing software only compatible with a fixed number and type of
CPU cores.

WHAT DO I NEED TO KNOW BEFORE GETTING STARTED?

Before proceeding with this on your console, you need to be aware of the risks
of hacking the 3DS: EVERY TIME you modify your system, there is always a
possibility that your console may become UNUSABLE in an IRRECOVERABLE way. It's
rare, but the possibility is there, so make sure to follow ALL instructions TO
THE LETTER. Your SD card should be MBR, not GPT (the SD card that comes with
your console is MBR by default).Additionally, if you need to format a new SD
card, you can use guiformat and adjust the allocation unit size to 32K.
Furthermore, the 2DS is essentially identical to the Old 3DS in terms of
software, and any steps mentioning "Old 3DS" also apply to the 2DS.Installing
custom firmware (CFW) on the Nintendo 3DS can offer various advantages that
enhance the user experience and expand the capabilities of the console. One of
the main reasons for opting for CFW is access to a broader library of games and
additional content. This enables users to install and play backups of their
games, which is particularly useful for titles that are hard to find or
expensive in the current market. Additionally, CFW allows the use of homebrew
software, including unofficial applications and games developed by the
community. This means users can explore a variety of experiences not available
in Nintendo's official ecosystem.Another significant advantage is the
enhancement in system functionality. With CFW, it's possible to make adjustments
to the console's settings that are not feasible with the original firmware. For
example, some CFW versions enable users to customize the user interface and
manage memory more efficiently. There are also CFW versions that offer options
to improve image quality and game performance, resulting in a smoother and
visually appealing gaming experience.Retrocompatibility is another major
advantage. With CFW, users can run emulators of other consoles, further
expanding the library of available games. This allows playing titles from older
systems that would otherwise not be accessible on the 3DS. Additionally, users
can apply patches to games to fix bugs or enhance the gaming experience, which
is especially useful for titles with performance issues.It's also important to
mention that CFW removes many of the region restrictions imposed by the console
by default. This facilitates access to games from different regions, allowing
users to enjoy titles that may not have been released in their local
market.However, despite all these advantages, there are considerations that
should not be overlooked. Installing CFW can increase the console's
vulnerability to malware or malicious software, potentially compromising the
device's security. Additionally, modifying the system can void any warranty the
console may have, which could be problematic if something goes wrong.

MY EXPERIENCE AND FUTURE PROJECTS

In my personal experience, I'm not as passionate about video games nor as
consistent as I would like to be. However, with the little free time I have to
play on my console, I have had a lot of fun and it has helped me relive memories
from my childhood. My first console was the Nintendo 3DS, then the Wii, and the
Xbox 360! I spent long years playing with these systems until I moved countries
and lost everything. Recently, I decided to buy a Nintendo 3DS and opted to
install custom firmware on it, and it was the best decision I could have ever
made in my entire life.I'm not joking or exaggerating when I say that the 3DS,
even without custom firmware, is a better console than the Nintendo Switch. You
could watch Netflix and YouTube on it. It had an internet browser. You could
take pictures with it. Load it with your own music. You could customize it. The
entire console was full of charm and character!Now that I have the Nintendo 3DS,
my next project would be to buy the Wii and install custom firmware on it! I'm
not sure if I'll do it this year or the next, but however things unfold, I'm
excited nonetheless to do it.

Installing custom firmware on your Nintendo 3DS is a radically game-changing
activity, and mainly for the better. This is like a better upgrade of the
console such that you are able to do more things than you ever thought were
essential. Of course, that does not include the usual imported games only. You
will find such games as well as many others, including original indie games and
fan games which are recreations of some known franchises but with new elements
which are pure fun!And, don’t forget the nostalgia. Liberating a system from
backward compatibility constraints allows you to once again turn on old classic
games of old gaming systems and remember all the things you once loved and lost
in the depths of time.Getting rid of those annoying region locks also means that
you will be able to play different games from different countries, making your
gaming adventures far wider and letting you play games that you could have
hardly imagined.I cannot blame anyone for disregarding these warnings. It is
true, however, that risks do exist, including the possibility for viruses and
the effect that firmware installation could have on your warranty. However, for
most gamers, the disagreement is to use technical advantages afforded by custom
firmware – more games to play, more operability tweaks, better performance and
access to other regions’ games, hence a better all-round experience on the
Nintendo 3DS.Thanks you for reading :3

A BRIEF ANALYSIS ABOUT LINUX

——————————⋆✦⋆——————————

Heyoo! In this post, we'll delve into the general information of Linux and some
of my opinions as an Arch Linux user. Whether you're an aspiring hardware
engineer, a software developer interested in programming, or just a tech
enthusiast, this post will provide a comprehensive understanding—or so I hope!

OVERVIEW

Linux is an open-source kernel based on Unix. It was initially developed by
Linus Torvalds as a personal project while he was a student at the University of
Helsinki. The first version was released on September 17, 1991, and since then,
Linux code has evolved enormously thanks to the collaboration of thousands of
programmers and enthusiasts worldwide. One of its most prominent features is the
variety of Linux distributions (distros) available. Each distribution has a
specific focus and purpose. Some of the most popular ones include:✦ Ubuntu:
Known for its user-friendliness and active support community, ideal for
beginners.✦ Fedora: Backed by Red Hat, it focuses on cutting-edge technologies
and software.✦ Debian: Recognized for its stability and robustness, commonly
used in servers and critical systems.✦ Arch Linux: Geared towards advanced users
seeking a highly customizable system.

- STRUCTURE AND COMPONENTS

A GNU/Linux operating system consists of several key components:✦ Kernel: It is
the core of the operating system that manages hardware resources and enables
communication between software and hardware.✦ Shell: It is the interface that
allows users to interact with the operating system through commands.✦
FileSystem: Manages how data is stored and organized on the disk.✦ System
Libraries and Tools: Include essential programs that enable the basic
functioning of the operating system.✦ Desktop Environment: Provides a
user-friendly graphical interface (optional in some distributions). Known for
its user-friendliness and active support community, ideal for beginners.The
kernel is crucial for the operation of any operating system. Without a kernel,
an operating system cannot interact with hardware, manage resources, or provide
a stable platform for applications! Its design and efficiency directly impact
the performance, stability, and security of the operating system.

ADVANTAGES OF USING LINUX

One of the main advantages of Linux is that it is open-source. This means that
the source code is available for anyone to study, modify, and distribute. This
transparency facilitates collaboration and innovation, and also allows anyone to
review the source code to ensure that it is not affected by any bugs or
backdoors. Additionally, Linux is known for its high security. Thanks to its
architecture and user permission model, it is less susceptible to viruses and
malware compared to other operating systems. Furthermore, security updates are
frequent and increasingly easy to apply.This operating system is extremely
stable and can run for long periods without needing to restart. This makes it a
popular choice for servers and critical systems. Moreover, Linux can run on
older hardware with efficient performance, extending the lifespan of older
equipment. Linux also offers a high degree of customization. Users can adjust
nearly every aspect of the operating system to suit their needs, from the
desktop environment to the system kernel.Lastly, the Linux community is large
and active. Users can find a wealth of resources, forums, and online
documentation to troubleshoot issues and learn more about the operating system.
Distributions like Ubuntu and Fedora also offer professional support!Linux is
widely used in academic and scientific research. Its open-source nature allows
researchers to modify and tailor the operating system for specific experiments
and studies.Moreover, many scientific tools and applications are designed to run
on Linux. With a deep understanding of Linux, you can contribute to education by
teaching others about the operating system. Many educational institutions seek
instructors who can deliver courses on system administration, software
development, and cybersecurity.For avid enthusiasts of the latest technologies,
learning Linux can be a rewarding and challenging endeavor. It allows you to
delve into the inner workings of operating systems and experiment with different
configurations and tools.

WHY LINUX IS SO COMPLICATED?

The issue with Linux is not so much that it is complicated, but that it requires
dedication and knowledge.Many Linux and open-source software advocates will tell
you that the answer is not true, that you can install a Linux distro like Ubuntu
or Mint and they come with software to perform any basic task, and their use is
not so different from any Windows . However, the problem comes from another
angle.When you run Linux (focusing on those oriented towards new users), you
basically have a bunch of components adjusted to have a balance. And if all you
do with the PC is simply browse the Internet and check your email, or listen to
music... You have everything you need.The moment you need to do anything that
goes beyond the balance the system comes with, the balance breaks. Need to
install a driver? Besides learning how to use the terminal, which has been used
in the system for the past 30 years, you start adding dependencies/libraries
that were not in the system. Need to read a disk that the system does not
recognize for some reason? You need to learn what mounting is and be careful not
to change existing mounts. Need to install a program that is not in the
repositories because it is proprietary software? You start learning how to do
manual installations.

And if the program is open-source but new and not added to the package manager?
You start installing the build-essentials (you have to learn how to do that
first), then move to the terminal to the folder where you downloaded the code
and run ./make and ./install, and if something fails for any reason, you start
trying to figure out why, read the error and try to realize that debugging
scripts may not be very fun if you just want to get in and use it.And yes, any
advanced user can say "That's very easy! Just a sudo apt-get install
build-essentials and you're done!"... but that's the problem. You need to have
enough dedication to learn the basics of the system, the tricks, how this or
that works, and the time to learn how to do small things that you may not use
again. Linux, although it has many user-friendly distros, was never made with a
new user in mind; Linux is an operating system designed for those with computer
knowledge who want something more customizable than what other systems
allow.Windows and OSX are not easy to understand, but they have a great ace up
their sleeve: They hide all that complexity at absurd levels. Windows is a
system made for people to come and use it without having to complicate anything.
Don't believe me? Read a bit about the development of the Windows 95 interface
to see how focusing entirely on ease of use ended up with components that remain
with very few changes even to this day!That's what Linux never had. Linux favors
decision-making, but at the cost of giving you so many options that any user
coming from another system will be lost. And I wouldn't blame them for getting
lost. Think not only that there are thousands of distros (Ubuntu, Fedora, Arch,
SuSE, Mint, Debian, ZorinOS, Manjaro, ElementaryOS, Deepin, Solus, Puppy Linux,
Sabayon, Gentoo, etc.) but after choosing your distro, many times you have to
choose your desktop environment whose names usually don't say much (KDE, Gnome,
XFCE, LXDE, MATE, IceWM, Fluxbox, Cinnamon, Budgie, Trinity, Deepin, Unity,
etc... or even without a desktop, just the command line), each environment
coming with its own programs and base ideologies.

CONCLUSION

Without unification, there can be no consensus, and without consensus, the
system will continue to be confusing... because the options are so many that it
is normal for someone who does not have prior knowledge and wants to give the
system a chance without having the time to dedicate to testing it to get lost
and end up returning to what they already know.However, learning Linux is a
valuable investment in your professional and personal future. From job
opportunities in system administration, DevOps, and cybersecurity, to
involvement in research projects and open-source coding, Linux skills open up
numerous doors.While this blog post provides a basic introduction to Linux, the
field is vast and complex.Moreover, the ability to customize and control your
technological environment enables you to innovate and solve problems
effectively. With the increasing adoption of Linux in various technology
industries, now is the perfect time to dive into the world of Linux and leverage
all the opportunities it offers. Whether you're diving into digital logic
design, exploring assembly programming, or simply emulating a CPU in software,
each step brings you closer to understanding the inner workings of the
technology that drives the modern world. And that's why I think it's important
for you to know this.Happy coding and happy building! ⸜(｡˃ ᵕ ˂ )⸝♡
