A few years back the way Intel Microcode updates were distributed deciphered so it became possible to extract and research the microcode of some processor models.

Wow: inside DOS Doom version 2, you can run another Doom (even arbitrary other code)
Posted by jpluimers on 2024/09/17
Repository:
- [Wayback/Archive] kgsws/doom-in-doom: Doom 2 code execution. With a Doom port.
- [Wayback/Archive] Releases · kgsws/doom-in-doom
A Video that way better explains how the hacks work to make this happen is at [Wayback] You can run Doom inside (DOS) Doom, for real. – YouTube
I have found a code execution exploit in the original DOS Doom 2 and ported a Chocolate Doom to it. And then Chocolate Heretic.
Attention: This does only work on the original DOS Doom2 version, no GZDoom or other source ports. This is a good thing as you don’t want code execution exploit on modern systems. People would abuse it to spread malicious code.
DOS version is available on Steam and you can use DosBox emulator to run it.
Copy
kgdid.wadto the directory where you have doom2.exe and then in DosBox start it with command “doom2 -file kgdid.wad“.(Copy other files too if you want to try them. Game injection has to be renamed to
doomsav4.dsg)

View DOM Source bookmarklet
Posted by jpluimers on 2024/09/12
This is cool as it shows the page source not as it was first loaded, but from how it is currently rendered which includes all post-load modifications by any scripts: [Wayback/Archive] View DOM Source bookmarklet.
Via [Wayback/Archive] Martin Splitt on Twitter: “I made a bookmarklet to view the rendered source (aka the DOM) of a page. 👀 🚀 Works with Chrome, Firefox, Safari and possibly others, too. 🌈 Beautifies the code 🎨 Includes syntax highlighting 💻 Get the bookmarklet at 👉 experiments.geekonaut.de/view-dom-source 👈”

GitHub – AnswerDotAI/fasthtml: The fastest way to create an HTML app
Posted by jpluimers on 2024/09/11
The HTMX based [Wayback/Archive] GitHub – AnswerDotAI/fasthtml: The fastest way to create an HTML app
FastHTML is a new next-generation web framework for fast, scalable web applications with minimal, compact code. It’s designed to be:
- Powerful and expressive enough to build the most advanced, interactive web apps you can imagine.
- Fast and lightweight, so you can write less code and get more done.
- Easy to learn and use, with a simple, intuitive syntax that makes it easy to build complex apps quickly.
FastHTML apps are just Python code, so you can use FastHTML with the full power of the Python language and ecosystem.
Could this be something for me?

There are quite a lot of cool responses to b0rk asking this a while back: [Wayback/Archive] 🔎Julia Evans🔍 on Twitter: “does anyone know of a good demo (blog post / video) of how to use a Javascript debugger in a browser to investigate a bug? I’ve used debuggers in C but never Javascript”
Archived just in case I need to do more web development stuff.

Posted by jpluimers on 2024/09/09
For my link archive (as I wish this could be part of a Bookmarklet): the --get-url option of youtube-dl gets you the video URL of a Tweet
# youtube-dl --get-url https://twitter.com/Gert_van_Dijk/status/1548997307017871362 https://video.twimg.com/ext_tw_video/1548997270577840133/pu/vid/320x320/C20GFtInFGjBiY9k.mp4?tag=12

Many companies have hardly any idea how many scripts are being used by their people to get the chores of day to day work done.

I’m not the only one storing tech gadgets in flight cases (:
Posted by jpluimers on 2024/09/05
It was about 2 years ago that Jilles reminded me I had a flight case with gadgets too.
Back when I assembled it in 2018, I had big plans for showing private “cloud” container experimentation and gadget stuff at conferences. Then 2019 kicked in with rectum cancer.
So it was good that he helped me motivating to get it working again, especially as the time around assembling it so much fun and working on it brought back those days.
Here are the pictures:
