Thoughts and Rankings
Old PC friendly version

📌 2026-02-10

I am working on a project about making a kernel based on an old failed attempt I had long ago. I managed to make it boot and display simple lines like "Hello from C++ kernel!" Recently I have taken it up a notch to try to convert a png in readable raw data to be booted off and displayed in the kernel.

I have had mainly two annoying issues where it would either display a black screen or almost display the correct image but it would be cropped, cut off, resized, and almost always have strange colours. I have given up on this because I have debugged continuously to no avail; my knowledge on C and C++ is minimal and I barely know any assembly.

This really is an ambitious project from me, but if I actually learn in the first place and get help from experienced people, it would go a long way for me and the project.

If you are interested, the project repo is located at MrBlight/MrB-Kernel.

Contact me via email (recommended), as I am unable to use IRC and discord for now. (Please use plain text email if possible!)

Thanks for your consideration :)

As humans, we all have misunderstandings, either by mistake or made intentionally, we argue most of the time, but as arguments come and go, we still learn from them. But how can we learn from them if we don't let go?

I think one of the things that I dislike the most are grudges. I don't like the idea of holding onto a moment in time that's given you heartbreak, either doing this because of something someone said or you said. And most of all, I don't like holding onto grudges because someone else is.

But if I were to be honest, I wouldn't go up to someone I just had an argument with to start a casual conversation like nothing happened, but I wouldn't enjoy spending days (maybe sometimes even more) just for someone to let go either.

Personally I don't hold grudges, although sometimes I may get angry, disappointed, or annoyed. It isn't because grudges feel "bad", it's because they don't help with anything. The truth is that grudges make you feel worse than you did each day, and they don't resolve the argument for both parties either.

Think of grudges like tugging on a rope, it may have been a two-sided battle but your opponent left the game long ago, and it's left you to get exhausted over nothing.

At the end of the day, all I have is love for everyone. And maybe if you hold grudges too, you can try letting go as well :)

I found a great design to use for my site and in some nice buttons on the main page too. I wanted to finally add something to this page so Im going to rank some OS's.

Also future rankings and such will go on top of this entry
