I have been using GitHub since 2017, and have been getting tired of GitHub's theme. I didn't need a huge change, just a small refresh. So, to solve this, I whipped out [Stylus](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-CA/firefox/addon/styl-us/) and made a nice little CSS file for it.

I was playing around with some D-link routers today and remembered an [ExploitDB Entry](https://www.exploit-db.com/exploits/33520) I read a while ago. Many D-link routers have a great feature that allows remote management and configuration queries. Interestingly, this cannot be disabled, and one of the pages contains a cleartext version of the admin password (yay!).

A rather large number of people know me as "the guy who does weird things with python". I would object to this title, but it is quite accurate. So, here are some of the things I like playing with in python. None of these are actually breaking the language, just little known facts and syntax. At some point I will share about actually breaking the language. For now, enjoy the weird things I have found over the past 6 years.

Over the past year and a half, I have been hacking my way around the undocumented [devRant](https://devrant.com) auth/write API. At the request of devRant's creators, this API must not be documented due to the way logins work on the platform. That is besides the point. I have been working on a little project called [devDNS](https://devrant.com/collabs/2163502) over the past few days that uses this undocumented API. Why must I be so bad at writing intros?

One day, back in June of 2018, I was both looking for a new project to work on, and trying to decide which Linux distro to install on one of my computers. From this, a little project was born. [Give Me a Distro](http://ewpratten.retrylife.ca/GiveMeADistro/) (or, GMAD, as I like to call it) is a little website that chooses a random distribution of Linux and shows a description of what you are about to get yourself into, and a download link for the latest ISO.

I have always been interested in text and data encoding, so last year, I made my first encoding tool. [Shift64](https://github.com/Ewpratten/shift64) was designed to take plaintext data with a key, and convert it into a block of base64 that could, in theory, only be decoded with the original key. I had a lot of fun with this tool, and a very stripped down version of it actually ended up as a bonus question on the [5024 Programming Test](https://github.com/frc5024/Programming-Test/blob/master/test.md) for 2018/2019. Yes, the key was in fact `5024`.

The [ATmega32u4](http://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/devicedoc/atmel-7766-8-bit-avr-atmega16u4-32u4_datasheet.pdf) (aka. 32u4) chip is one of my favorite microcontrollers to work with. It is a low power, 8-bit, [AVR](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AVR_microcontrollers)-based system developed by [Atmel](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmel). They are commonly used in [Arduino Leonardo](https://www.arduino.cc/en/Main/Arduino_BoardLeonardo) development boards and programmed via the [Arduino IDE](https://www.arduino.cc/en/Main/Software), but I prefer having as much control over the device as I can. So I choose to program these chips directly in [AVRASM](http://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/devicedoc/40001917a.pdf) and [AVR-C](https://www.nongnu.org/avr-libc/user-manual/).

I am starting a new little series here called "Notes from FRC". The idea is that I am going to write about what I have learned over the past three years of working (almost daily) with robots, and hopefully someone in the future will find them useful. The production source code I based this post around is available [here](https://github.com/frc5024/lib5k/blob/cd8ad407146b514cf857c1d8ac82ac8f3067812b/common_drive/src/main/java/io/github/frc5024/common_drive/calculation/DifferentialDriveCalculation.java).

I was recently accepted into the [GitHub Codespaces](https://github.com/features/codespaces) beta test program. After reading through the documentation, I wanted to find a good use for this new tool, and decided to try it out on the largest open source project I am currently involved with. At *Raider Robotics* (@frc5024), we maintain a fairly large robotics software library called [Lib5K](https://github.com/frc5024/lib5k). The goal of this library is to provide an easy-to-use framework for new programmers to use when writing control systems code. As this library has become more complex, we have recently forked it into its own GitHub repository, and completely reworked our dependency system to match that of any other large OSS project. I figured that setting this repository up to use Codespaces might make it easier for other developers at Raider Robotics to make small changes to the library without needing to pull in the nearly 5GB of dependencies needed just to compile the codebase.

I have been looking around for a small, and easy-to-use [maven](https://maven.apache.org/) server to host my personal Java libraries for some time now. I origionally went with [Jitpack.io](https://jitpack.io/), but didn't like the fact I jitpack overwrites artifact `groupID` fields. This means that instead of specifying a package via something like `ca.retrylife:librandom:1.0.0`, a user would have to write `com.github.ewpratten:librandom:1.0.0`. While this is not a huge deal, I prefer to use a `gorupID` under my own domain for branding reasons. Along with this issue, I just didn't have enough control over my artifacts with Jitpack.

Recently, @rsninja722 was telling me about [a project](https://github.com/rsninja722/file2bmp) he was working on. The basic idea is that you pass a file into his program, and it generates a bitmap of the binary data. This was inspired by [an old post of mine](/post/ef7b3166) where I did the same thing with a horribly written Python script and the library [`pillow`](https://github.com/python-pillow/Pillow).

When sharing files, I use three main services. I use [Firefox Send](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firefox_Send) and [KeybaseFS](https://book.keybase.io/docs/files) to share one-off and large files with friends, and I use [Google Drive](https://drive.google.com) to store some personal files, and for everything school-related (I don't get a choice about this). For the first two services, sharing a file is as simple as calling [`ffsend`](https://github.com/timvisee/ffsend) or moving a local file into my kbfs mountpoint, and I am done. Google Drive, on the other hand, the process isn't as easy. While some Linux distributions have Google Drive integration out of the box (I miss daily-driving [ChromiumOS](https://www.chromium.org/chromium-os)), Linux users generally have to go to `drive.google.com`, and deal with the Google Drive webapp. Not sure if this is an "only me" problem, but whenever I need to quickly make a change to a document through the webapp, It decides to stop working.

As I talked about in my post [about Minecraft modpack development](/blog/2020/10/24/corepack-development), I got back in to playing Minecraft earlier this year. I primairly play on a server full of friends, where the server owner has [dynmap](https://github.com/webbukkit/dynmap) installed. Dynmap is a handy tool that provides a near-real-time overview of the minecraft world in the form of a webapp. I always keep Dynmap open on my laptop so I can chat with whoever is online, and see whats being worked on.

About a month ago, I decided to buy myself a mechanical keyboard. I have always been a huge fan of membrane / laptop keyboards. My current laptop (the Lenovo T480) has a very nice feel to its keyboard, and my previous laptop (the Acer R11) had the best keyboard I have ever used. The switch to mechanical wasn't my first choice, although I was open to trying something new, so didn't see it as a negative. Ever since adding another monitor to my setup, I haven't had enough room on my desk to fit a keyboard. This generally is not a problem since I mainly use my laptop, but I occasionally need to use my desktop for rendering work, which requires a separate keyboard.

Well, that depends. If you are the type of person to customize everything for maximum efficiency, go for it! The Vortex Core is a very nice keyboard with more configurability than I can wrap my head around (even if you need a third party tool to do so). If you just want something simple, stick to a 60% keyboard. The lack of numbers on the core drives many people crazy.

For programmers: you basically need to remap your keys. Most common keys (brackets, quotes, operators, ...) are hidden behind one or two function keys, and the learning curve might hurt for the first week or so.

## The base game
|
||||
|
||||
Starting out at the base game. I like to keep this fairly up-to-date. Right now, my base game is version [`1.16.4`](https://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Java_Edition_1.16.4). Along with the base game, my game launcher of choice, [MultiMC](https://multimc.org/), allows using a custom [LWJGL](https://www.lwjgl.org/) version. I choose to use version `3.2.2`, as it is the most stable for me.

### This website
|
||||
|
||||
I have now experimented with three posting schedules for this website: monthly, bi-weekly, and weekly. Monthly posts were too spread-apart, and left this site feeling a little empty. I switched to weekly posting through the summer, which worked out great. Since school started again, I have moved to bi-weekly posts, writing each post a few weeks before publishing it (hover over the date of any post to see the date I wrote it). The bi-weekly system seems to be working very well, and I will likely stick to it until summer 2021, so enjoy more content fairly regularly (and remember to subscribe to my [RSS Feed](/feed.xml)).

My previous development laptop was an [Acer R11](https://www.acer.com/ac/en/CA/content/series/acerchromebookr11) chromebook. I always ran it in [developer mode](https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/docs/+/master/developer_mode.md) with all the Linux packages I needed installed via [chromebrew](https://github.com/skycocker/chromebrew). This setup worked great except for GUI programs, as (at the time), the built-in [Wayland](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wayland_(display_server_protocol)) server on the chromebook was not exposed to the user in a meaningful way. I relied on an internal tool from Google called [sommelier](https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/platform2/+/HEAD/vm_tools/sommelier/) to translate X11 calls to the internal Wayland server. None of this was ideal, but with a lot of scripts and aliases, I made it work.

For the past few years, I have been using a self-hosted VPN to bring all my personal devices into the same "network" even though many of them are spread across various locations and physical networks. This system never gives me problems, but there was one thing I wished I could do: access non-VPN devices on other networks using one of my VPN devices as a gateway.

Last fall, I [purchased my first mechanical keyboard](/blog/2020/11/06/vortex-core), the [Vortex Core](https://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=3550), and have been loving it ever since. Well, almost loving it. There are a few "quirks" of the keyboard that I wasn't super fond of, like: occasionally not sending `KEY_UP` commands back to the computer, or the badly documented and maintained system for building custom layouts.

Your first, and possibly only question is likely: *"what?"*, and I forgive you for asking such a thing. As probably any reader of my posts knows very well, IPv4 address blocks are practically impossible to get, and more than impossible to get for personal use. To quickly clear things up, my address block is *not* for personal use, but in comparison to the majority of the internet's existing address block owners, I am basically a single person holding on to a `/24` subnet for dear life while the giants of large internet corporations are eating up everything around me.

This is mainly to make sure nobody is doing something *too* stupid near my network, but also just out of curiosity. Its nice to know what other people are up to, both as a sanity check on my own network, and as a view into new things I could try out.
