valve really should support the hell outta this effort

Did a full implementation of the Web Gamepad API for node.js and added a CLI tester for it. Over 2100 gamepads mapped using the SDL database.

About two orders of magnitude more than chrome :)

what's funny is I've actually been working on a terminal based WebAudio implementation, so I'll have a demo of terminal with 3d, gamepad support, and sound soon

naw I want other systems as well. I'm too old for ds nostalgia :)

Luis Montes @monteslu.com · 6d

that's unfortunate. Still Linux runs on a potato without the android bloat. Gimme a couple gigs of ram (the 2024 anbenic had 1 gig), and I bet a good rom could come out of this.
Arm64 is the shit

108 ain't bad. Hopefully knulli can get a firmware on one of these

Three.js GPU (WebGL) accelerated demo running in Node.js (without a web browser) but rendering to my terminal at GameBoy Color resolution.

Even has real texture mapping and lighting effects :)

this kind of engagement farming is so weird.

Hey, THANK YOU JSConf! 💙

To everyone who shared their ideas, sang way too hard at karaoke, and made the hallway track feel like a family reunion... you’re the best.

That's a wrap 👏

were we ever necessary tho

agree 100% on purely the LLM itself. LLMs are just text in text out functions. No long term storage, no background threads working to emit anything on its own without human intervention.
The system that uses it and supplies those pieces would be closer to consciousness.

Luis Montes @monteslu.com · 16d

How about a larger context, a background thread with prompt based on news, social media, environmental sensors, and something like an MCP server with access to long term storage based on keywords and conversation summaries? Seems like they'd be a little closer to conscious?

JSConf isn’t just about JavaScript, but the friends we make along the way. #jsconf

you can see if there's people in the makerspace, but unless you can read 1999 matrix code, you don't get to see who the people are.

See if there are people in the lab! The camera views outlines of people in real time, though you may not be able to tell if nothing's moving. If the cameras are broken, please email operations at heatsynclabs dot org and mention "web cams" in the subject line.
