| Sharing a bit of backstory on why I decided to work on this;
| Firstly, "for fun" but primarily because I felt like I started
| losing the childlike wonder/whimsy I once had with programming.
|
| So I started this new hobby where I ask myself "can I hack on
| this?" upon getting/seeing something.
|
| For instance, I got this new Aula F75 keyboard (really good
| keyboard for the price btw, it sounds good too!) and it only has
| dedicated control software for Windows. So I downloaded the
| driver files, software executable, and manual sheet and reverse
| engineered the full protocol/packets and rebuilt it for my Mac.
| Then played snake with the backlights. Fun.
|
| Anywho, happy to see my blog on the front page. Would love to
| hear if anyones going through something similar or working on
| silly little projects! :)
