Edit: uhhhhhh, solid maybe on this! Our internet is out! I forgot about that, because I was on a cell backup! And that probably can't handle a twitch stream... But we'll see!

Last edit (7:43 pm): internet is back! Stream is back! We're back! 9 PM I'll be online and live!

Last last edit (8:46 PM): internet is out again. Stream canceled tonight. See y'all next week.

Fuck you, Comcast.

Tonight, I'll be going live to continue working on my 6502 #emulator in #Zig!

We've finished the CPU!... Mostly! It's finished enough to run code, so, let's start adding I/O!

I'll be implementing an ACIA serial device to slot into our emulated bus!

I have _never done this before_!

What could possibly go wrong? Tune in at roughly 9 PM Eastern to find out!

#StreamReport

Last night on stream, we hit four major milestones in my my 6502 #emulator:

1. We got the clock code working, so instructions actuary get executed

2. We got our first instruction actually executed. ldx!

3. We.... Ran our first program! A simple thing with a very limited number of instructions, but it was a program and it executed to completion!

4. Implemented all of the remaining instructions!

That's a lot of stuff done on one stream, eh?

Thursday we'll see about wiring things up to a gui; the little TUI I have is great, but it'd be nice to be able to interact with the emulator more, push and poke, things like that, and I think the best way to accomplish that is going to be an immediate mode gui. Probably imgui for now, with the understanding that we'll need something else when we start implementing actual graphics hardware for the emulator.

#zig remains the greatest language of all time. Zero barriers between me and getting things done.

Here's a link to the main commit from last night: codeberg.org/b4ux1t3/zigsty-fi

Edit2: it looks like we're going to have to call tonight off. We'll get back to the emulator on Tuesday! Have a good weekend!

Tonight, at roughly 8:30 PM Eastern, I'll be going live to continue working on my 6502 #emulator in #Zig!

We're pretty close to actually executing some assembly!
