President Biden on Thursday signed an executive order allowing the U.S. to impose new sanctions on Israeli settlers — and potentially Israeli politicians and government officials — involved in violent attacks against Palestinians.

Why it matters: The unprecedented executive order is the most significant step any U.S. administration has ever taken in response to violence by Israeli settlers against Palestinian civilians in the West Bank.

The verdict comes after a dramatic day in court that included the former president storming out of the courtroom during Carroll's closing argument.

The Pokémon Company, partially owned by Nintendo, announced it will investigate Palworld for potentially using its IP and assets.

Donald Trump has won the New Hampshire GOP primary, a commanding victory that would make a November rematch with President Joe Biden look more likely than ever.

The Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) is a powerful tool that is becoming more common across all kinds of different projects. They are effectively programmable hardware devices, capable of creat…

GoLEm FPGA project. This is my personal attempt to create a drop-in replacement for the current MiSTer FPGA firmware. The aim of GoLEm is to create a more accessible and less complicated gaming experience that anyone can easily use and enjoy.

I've spent the last five months working non-stop on this project since July 2023 while on sabbatical. My personal objective is to garner sufficient interest to make this my full-time job. I've completely rewritten the application logic, FPGA logic, input system(s), startup, menus, OSD, and more in Rust.

Reversed GBA PCBs on github!

Over the past few months the MARS team has been teasing a new FPGA-based system: Multi Arcade & Retro System. The concept is similar to the MiSTer, but running on its own custom, more powerful hardware. They're expecting to launch it early next year at a $700 price point...

Analogue is making an FPGA N64!

Coming in 2024 (tm), price comparable to their other consoles (tm), etc.

Ohio-based vintage computing specialist Legacy Pixels has launched a slick add-on which offers a true hardware MIDI interface for MiSTer FPGA-based emulation systems, compatible with a selection of cores and hardware.

"[This is a] hardware MIDI interface for your MiSTer setup," the company writes of its creation, which comes housed in a neat 3D-printed casing exposing a micro-USB port at the rear and a pair of MIDI DIN connectors at the frotn. "[It] plugs into the I/O Board User Port and provides a direct interface to the FPGA core. The ultimate in low-latency MIDI connectivity!"

• MiSTer I/O Board v5.5 or Digital I/O Board v1.2 or newer
• Tested with cores designed to emulate the Atari ST, the Commodore Amiga, the Sharp X68000, and IBM Compatibles using the ao486 core
• Should theoretically work with any hardware or DAW that does general MIDI I/O.
• As of the time of this post, $32 from Legacy Pixels https://www.tindie.com/products/legacypixels/midi-interface-for-mister-fpga/

"Very happy to announce a new frontend for the #MiSTerFPGA NFC script by Ziggurat (sigboe)! Browse and write games to NFC tags from your MiSTer, craft custom commands, manage the mappings. Now included as "nfcui" in the Scripts menu, available now through downloader and update_all" - @wizzomafizzo on your favorite billionaire-owned everything platform, www.twix.com.

Of course a huge shout out to srg320, who has put a lot of work into this core over the years despite being caught up in the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
