so i got a steam deck (i wanted one for a while & the threat of them running out of DRAM because of AI demand is looming)

@whitequark I have no idea what pnr means besides Place'n'Route. What's the meaning in your case?
@ppxl exactly that

@ppxl exactly that
@whitequark ooooooooh now I got it.
️️️I thought of doing hardware preparation like solder screening, not computational multi objective NP hard calculations. I am obviously not smart

@krutonium ty, how do i do that?

Your Mileage may Vary, if you mess it up you're on your own.
Worst case scenario you should be able to fix it by clearing the CMOS though, unless you go wild with voltage settings or somthing.

you think i was joking
@whitequark i feel like you should start a YouTube series called "will it FPGA" as you try to synthesize, P&R, and JTAG an FPGA from increasingly exotic platforms.
Start with easy peasy: Android phone, steam deck, Windows 98 laptop, etc. then step it up... Nintendo 3ds? Smith-Corona PWP-80?

@azonenberg @whitequark Vivado on a car infotainment system could be nice — take long running P&R jobs with you!

@azonenberg @whitequark how many LUTs could a smart fridge route in a hard day’s work?

@azonenberg @whitequark an Underwood Portable might work if you can fix the C compiler

This is how we wrote software before Selectric. -
@ftg @mei @whitequark I had Altium, ProE, and Matlab all in steam back in undergrad.

it's... it's really nice. someone actually gave a shit while designing this PC hardware and software. rare and pleasant
@whitequark Glad you like it!
There are still some features not upstreamed in Linux, but to this day, we test every new MR in mesa to make sure we keep on improving the support and performance
