The musings of a Youth Services Librarian. Gaming for libraries has many forms from gaming consoles to computers. I have observed console gaming programs and have seen young library patrons playing various games on library computers. I have even had some time to hear from youth about their gaming experiences. There are a couple of games that are particularly interesting for me and they are definitely interesting for the youth that come to the library. To read up on the game. Just the game by itself has e...

Snaxe on a breadboard! | davidc.net
http://www.davidc.net/blog/201109/snaxe-breadboard
Skip to main content. Snaxe on a breadboard! September 21, 2011. Since I just got my lovely (and cheap) DOGS102 LCD module. And an PS2-style thumb joystick. I thought it might be a good first exercise to get Snaxe. Running on my Teensy. As usual, I'm using the wonderful Teensy 2.0 USB. The USB cable pictured is just supplying power (though a #define enables debug output over the Teensy HID interface). So far, I have been unable to get it running off either a MintyBoost or a 9V battery with 7805 regulator...

http://www.davidc.net/blog/201109/snaxe-hours-8-9
Skip to main content. September 15, 2011. More of the client-server communication is now implemented. The client is now put into the queue (and sent a message) after they enter their name. The server now broadcasts a 'gameover' to all clients on startup, in case any clients are stuck in the game from a server crash. The 'insert coin' state now lists players in the order that they joined the queue, and the 'play' state now adds players to the game in that same order. The next steps are to finish up the cl...

Automatically exporting USB drives over Samba | davidc.net

Skip to main content. Automatically exporting USB drives over Samba. August 23, 2012. For my new NAS, I wanted newly-connected USB disks to be automatically mounted and then exported over Samba. Debian's usbmount program is used to handle the mounting, and a couple of scripts handle the Samba export. Using run-parts (and the equivalent. Upon disconnection). This allows a custom script to be inserted to handle the Samba exporting. Usbmount by default will mount into the directories. Conf EOF [$SHARENAME] ...

Snaxe: Hours 13-14 | davidc.net
http://www.davidc.net/blog/201109/snaxe-hours-13-14
Skip to main content. September 16, 2011. Lots of tidying up done today, making the game look a bit better. Katia has started working on new snake images to fit the new board size, but they're not done yet. I've added a new invulnerability powerup, which lets you slither through yourself, other snakes, or bones - but if you're still crossing them when you leave invulnerability, you die. You can still eat friendly powerups in the meantime. You flash faster and faster as your time runs out.
