Target Can’t Measure Their Own Bins
Whoa, a non-technical article! Look at that!
Imagine RIT Broke My App (because I suck at handling errors)
Imagine RIT is (as I’m writing) this upcoming Saturday! For those unaware, Imagine is essentially a giant maker faire that RIT hosts every year, with this year’s being on Saturday, April 25. I, being a first year, haven’t actually experienced it yet, but I’ve gotten the impression that it’s pretty cool and will be in attendance. However, this event’s approach came with a very unexpected…
The Future of libWiiPy, WiiPy, and NUSGet
Hey there! I strongly suggest that you read the previous article I published, “The History of libWiiPy, WiiPy, and NUSGet”, before reading this one. It provides a lot of the context behind why I started on libWiiPy and its related projects. Assuming you’ve done that, let’s talk about the unfortunately growing list of concerns that I have with these projects, and where I’m planning to go with them.
The History of libWiiPy, WiiPy, and NUSGet
I sat down to write about the future of my Python Wii projects, but I realized that to understand where they’re going, you kinda need to understand the history first. I’ve never formally written down what started the libWiiPy project, so I figured that now would be a great time to do so.
Tahoe-no (Or, How to Destroy a 24+ Year Legacy of Icon Design)
I’ve always tended to be an early adopter of Apple’s software updates. I install the day 1 developer beta on my devices after WWDC each year, and then suffer the consequences of doing so (but hey, it’s really fun to watch the improvements between the early betas). I stuck with that trend this year on my phone, but when it came to my Mac, I held off. And while yes, I didn’t have a supported Mac any…
An RNGTool Tragedy (Oops, your App Store app, it’s deleted!)
If you’re an avid reader of my fantastic blog, then you’re surely familiar with RNGTool. It was my first real Apple app, and after only being available on macOS and via sideloading on iOS, I was given the opportunity to publish it on the App Store thanks to the generosity of ny, one of the lead developers of SideStore. She allowed me to publish the app on SideStore Apple development team. I of…
Another Brand New Website Design
You might have made the astute observation that my website suddenly has an entirely new (and incredibly different) design now!
The Pitfalls of VEX Robotics’ Software
It’s my senior year of high school, and I’ve been taking a year-long robotics class, mostly just because I’m going into Computer Science in college and my school doesn’t offer much else in the way of CS classes. I’ll be the first to admit that mechanical engineering is absolutely not my strong suit. I’ve had a number of mechanical issues throughout my time in this class, but I’m not going to try…
Enabling the Hidden Wii DVD Icon, Part 3
I’m finally here again.
The One That Got Away (Dolphin NAND Manager)
It’s time to talk about my lost project: Dolphin NAND Manager, one of the most useful programs I’ve ever made.
The Story of Finishing fake-apt
Well, after about a year and a half of work and 107 commits, fake-apt has finally reached a state where I feel alright calling it completed. It may not truly have all of APT’s features, namely features like updating and upgrading just print out text, and edit-sources just spits out an error, but overall it’s a pretty solid recreation, in my opinion at least.
To Bootstrap or not to Bootstrap?
Switching to Bootstrap was quite a big decision because it required me to rework a lot of this site to make it work.
Welcome to the Blog!
It’s blog time (again)! This is where I will talk about tech things I’m doing or like. Oh and also where I’ll rant about things I could just ignore.
Bringing RNGTool to Your Wrist (Maybe)
Hmm this title sounds familiar…

Love Letter to Vector Graphics
I finally reached that point in my life where I learned what an SVG is! Not sure how I made it this far without that knowledge.
Unsupported Mac Adventures Part 2
Wow! There’s more.
Unsupported Mac Adventures
So as a fun way to document my work on my MacBooks, I thought I’d make a blog article out of them. Blog articles that are actually about our software will be coming soon.
