So I took my favorite C64 game loaded it up in C64 emulator and captured ~1 minute of game play (frame by frame), then I ran captured sequence through an algorithm I've been working on and got this result 
Though it's slow as hell, it took ~20 minutes to create this map

It would work better if you did not capture and encode a video. Instead, you could try to process each frame with the help of the graphics processor on the fly. And you could lower the frame rate to give it more time. Shirley you don't need so many almost identical frames.

It's processing raw 4-bit video output from emulator, but it's slow largely due to hand written code for things like blur which is, needles to say, sub-optimal

The link is rated NSFW at work but I grabbed the idea from the Google cache. I was not aware of that reputation of people from imgur, was merely refering to the fact that you had dropped your picture on it.
Nice work, BTW.

I have been working on a little dotnet core project that will allow users to create their own site and then post to it. It's really an interesting experiment so I can learn the underlying technologies -- and I've learned a ton so far.
Anyways, I just got my SSL Cert applied to my site so now it is secure for users :
https://NewLibre.com[^]
HTTPS & HTTP Still Work
The additionally interesting thing is that I updated the dotnet core site with the existing (and very limited prototype code) and everything is now working perfectly under HTTPS and still works under HTTP if the user selects that.
Cool VStudio Deployment
Mostly, I'm shocked that it still works. I'm also amazed at how easy VStudio 2017 and dotnet core make it to publish your web site. Serious CI and very cool. Also cool that you can test so easily on localhost:<port> then deploy to your prod site and it just works.
Well, I've recently posted in Weird & Wonderful about this site that will allow you to create a landing page (prototype) ==> The Weird and The Wonderful - dotnet core gen sub-web landing page[^]
And I've also written an article related to some other challenges I had:
DotNet Core 2.x Razor Pages: Using PartialViews[^]
And I documented a bug in Dotnet Core razor pages at : Why is my Model object always null on my Razor Page in dotnet core 2.x Razor Page app? - Stack Overflow[^]

Thanks for the encouragment.

I'm not sure what that is.
Are you wondering how I can pull the daily Dilbert comic to your landing page on the fly? --ie How I can pull remote content? Or something else?

You can read about it here: Web server implementations in ASP.NET Core | Microsoft Docs[^]
I found it interesting for our company as there are multiple SignalR projects in the pipeline and that way the developers don't have to implement HTTPS security themselves in their applications (we always struggle with certificates and stuff like that  )
|
|

|

Interesting. Thanks. I will take a look at that article.
EDIT
Oh, yes, interesting. On my main site I am not employing that at this time.
However, I have also deployed a test dotnet core web site to my DigitalOcean.com droplet (running Linux Debian). I want to soon try deploying this prototype to that environment but I had a heck of a time getting the sample running due to getting nginx (proxy) setup properly to expose it to the outside world.

I'm seeing a couple of 404 errors for your fallback scripts:
- https://newlibre.com/lib/jquery/dist/jquery.min.js
- https://newlibre.com/lib/bootstrap/dist/js/bootstrap.min.js
Firefox is displaying a "mixed content" warning, but I can't see what's causing it. Chrome, Edge and IE11 don't seem to have that problem.
(Edit: Now Firefox has stopped complaining about it as well. Weird.)
Did you have to pay for your certificate? Let's Encrypt[^] might have been a better option, especially if you could combine it with PKISharp/win-acme[^] to automate the renewals.

Thanks for all that info.
Very nice.
I will check out those items.
I did pay for SSL cert but only $29 and then additional $24 for static IP which is required.
All hosted on smarterasp.net which is cheap and quite nice and allows direct deploy from VSTudio 2017.

One of the issues is that it pulls the image from Dilbert.com and there is no SSL version of Dilbert.com.
This shows that warning/error in firefox about images:

Thanks again.

congrats and a quick question ... :
did you encounter any problems with SignalR over https ? 
I am asking because I could not make it (SignalR 2.2.3) work using (various types of)
self-signed certificates, no matter how hard I tried ...
|
|
|
|
|
Very good question. Unfortunately I have not tried it yet.
My signalr example runs from my raddev.us which doesn't have SSL on it (yet).
If I get a chance I will promote that test signalr app to my newlibre.com and test it out.
|
|
|
|
|
Sounds good ...
Configuring SignalR server for https with a self-signed cert was not a problem, but SignalR .Net client refused to connect ... JavaScript SignalR client will probably work, but it is not an option in my case, so I am stuck for a while ...

How to grow those?
They'll grow in the used coffee ground from the office. Just fill a plastic cup with used coffee-grounds and plant 'em. Aw, and poke a hole in the bottom of the cup for drainage.

Interesting, I was going to put mine in a Strawberry Jar my Mum found...
|

Seedlings do not like transparent pots; the soil will warm up more by the sunlight. Strawberry jars also lack a draining-point, so the roots of the seedling would be rotting pretty quickly. You need a way to get rid of excess water.
