Some synthesizer sounds are just catchy, but some of them are genre-defining. We think you could make that case for the Roland JP-8000 patch “Sandstorm”, which you’ve heard if you listened to any trance from the 90’s, but especially the song that was named after it.
“Sandstorm” is powered by the Roland Supersaw, and synth nerds have argued for a decade about how it’s made. The JP-8000 is a digital synthesizer, though, so it’s just code, run through custom DSP chips. If you could reverse engineer these chips, make a virtual machine, and send them the right program, you could get the sound 100% right. Think MAME but for synthesizers.
That brings us to [giulioz]’s talk at the 39th Chaos Communication Congress, where he dives deep into the custom DSP chip at the heart of the JP-8000. He and his crew had approached older digital synths by decapping and mapping out the logic, as you often do in video game emulation. Here, getting the connections right turned out to be simply too daunting, so he found a simpler device that had a test mode that, combined with knowledge of the chip architecture, helped him to figure out the undocumented DSP chip’s instruction set.
After essentially recreating the datasheet from first principles for a custom chip, [guiloz] and team could finally answer the burning question: “how does the Supersaw work”? The horrifying answer, after all this effort, is that it’s exactly what you’d expect — seven sawtooth waves, slightly detuned, and layered over each other. Just what it sounds like.
Sorting algorithms are a common exercise for new programmers, and for good reason: they introduce many programming fundamentals at once, including loops and conditionals, arrays and lists, comparisons, algorithmic complexity, and the tradeoff between correctness and performance. As a fun Christmas project, [Scripsi] set out to implement twelve different sorting algorithms over twelve days, using Christmas lights as the sorting medium.
The lights in use here are strings of WS2812 addressable LED strips, with the program set up to assign random hue values to each of the lights in the string. From there, an RP2040-based platform will step through the array of lights and implement the day’s sorting algorithm of choice. When operating on an element in the array the saturation is turned all the way up, helping to show exactly what it’s doing at any specific time. When the sorting algorithm has finished, the microcontroller randomizes the lights and starts the process all over again.
For each of the twelve days of Christmas [Scripsi] has chosen one of twelve of their favorite sorting algorithms. While there are a few oddballs like Bogosort which is a guess-and-check algorithm that might never sort the lights correctly before the next Christmas (although if you want to try to speed this up you can always try an FPGA), there are also a few favorites and some more esoteric ones as well. It’s a great way to get some visualization of how sorting algorithms work, learn a bit about programming fundamentals, and get in the holiday spirit as well.
The astute among you may remember an earlier version of this Russian beauty, the Lapa, which I featured last year around this time. Creator [lemosbor] claims that the worry was less about visual beauty and more about ergonomics. Way more. Well then, let this serve rather nicely as a textbook definition of that old form-follows-function principle. The lovely Lapa. See, [lemosbor] believes that the keyboard must adapt to the hands and not the other way around. The main goals were to minimize hand and finger movement as well as the visual attention required of the keyboard itself. No, there were never going to be any screens or RGB, and there likely never will be.
But I refuse to sidestep the obvious beauty in this keyboard, which from the side resembles a stylish and expensive pair of slightly-heeled shoes that were tailored to the contours of the human hand. And let’s not forget those handmade, oval keycaps, which again are a product of form-follows-function.
Underneath those keycaps are extremely light, tactile switches — Kailh White V2s with 30g springs. Now check this out. Those DIY keycaps weren’t just for added fun, they are very lightweight on purpose. They allow [lemosbor] to type more easily and accurately than on square caps. But they created gaps which showed the switches, and the whole effect was evidently quite ugly. To solve this, [lemosbor] designed the case so that the switches are mounted on the bottom. They nestle completely into switch-shaped crevices, so they are held in place only by friction. See? Kitten heels. You might be wondering why the wrist wrests are totally different. I suppose I’ve buried the lede, which is that the right half of Lapa operates as a mouse. Like, you move it around the desk.
As you might imagine, this aspect wasn’t easy to design or execute such that the keyboard doesn’t move around like crazy while you’re trying to type. Basically, the right half is quite light by comparison. The cutouts of the honeycombed wrist wrest save on weight while also improving hand contact.
The thumbstick on the right side is used instead of the cursor keys, which [lemosbor] reports as being very convenient. The left side has a thumb toggle switch for choosing between Russian and English. There’s also a left thumbstick, which [lemosbor] uses to switch between tabs and programs.
But the coolest part might be the solenoid hidden under the left wrist rest. It knocks when switching layers, and does so a certain number of times corresponding to the layer so that [lemosbor] is never lost. Since [lemosbor] doesn’t type much English, the solenoid will constantly tap a little bit in English mode. Now I think that would be really fun to type along to, at least for a little while. Imagine what it could do for your flow state.
Claude Plods Along, Emanating From An Enabled Typewriter
As far as AIs go, I’ve personally only used ChatGPT, and I feel somewhat attached to its response style at this point. Honestly, Claude might be a shock to the system. But what wouldn’t be a shock at all is using a typewriter to interact with either one of them.
Hackaday’s own [Ben James] started with a electronic Brother AX-10, and that’s the important distinction here. This type of machine reads your keystrokes just like a computer keyboard, but it tells the daisy wheel print element how to spin, and the paper whether to go up or down.
Thanks to this operation, [Ben] was able to both intercept key presses and inject them. So you see where this is going. You and Claude take turns typing. If only the keys would phantom-depress, like a player piano.
For both processes, [Ben] used an Arduino Nano, which interfaces with the keyboard matrix through four multiplexers — columns, rows, input, and output. The Arduino is wired to a Raspberry Pi Zero W running a Python script that sends prompts to Claude’s API and gets answers in return. See Claude go in the video below.
Believe it or not, these were mostly all pulled out of the e-waste pile just in time, kind of like Indy and the hat. In fact, rescuing stuff from electronics recycling is [ThisLifeSuckss]’ main hobby. Sounds like fun, if you have the space for all that you find. I myself do not.
Do you rock a sweet set of peripherals on a screamin’ desk pad? Send me a picture along with your handle and all the gory details, and you could be featured here!
Historical Clackers: the (Danish) Junior
As the commonplace name suggests, the Junior is meant as a toy for children. But by the looks of it, this would be a fine machine to add to your late 1940s office lineup.
For one thing, it’s almost all metal except for the wooden platen, two ink rollers made of cotton, and a couple of plastic platen knobs. The Antikey Chop declared it incredibly well-built for a toy, though the design is quite simple, clocking in at just 31 total parts.
Because the Junior was assembled largely by pinning or pressing pieces together, it was completely un-serviceable as disassembly would likely cause irreparable damage.
What you could do was change out the typewheel, which was cast, index and type, from one metal piece. It’s unlikely that non-Danish versions were created, however.
In order to use the thing, you would just spin the wheel until the character you want is in the top dead center position, and push the Space bar. This action caused the entire carriage to pivot an inch forward, and would advance the spring-driven escapement by one increment when it came back to rest.
The Return function involves pivoting the carriage forward and pushing to the right. Aside from this functionality, there’s not much to this typewriter. There’s no bell, no lever for Return, and certainly no line space lever or tab stops. After all, it’s a toy. But it would make one hell of a label maker.
Finally, a Scented Mouse for Heated Gaming Sessions
For some reason, the keyboard is called Marshmallow and not the fluffy white mouse, which is known on the streets as Fragrance Mouse. But I think marshmallow is exactly the scent I would want emanating from beneath my hand. Or maybe a nice, calming lavender, which it actually comes with.
The appeal of the keyboard is supposed to be in the muted, natural colors. Okay. That’s fair. Although it comes in three other colorways, I think this ‘green tea latte’ version takes the petit four.
And no matter which colorway you choose, the typography of the alphanumeric key legends is stunning and highly-readable. The white-on-gray of the modifiers and such is highly lacking in the legibility department, however.
As you might imagine, there’s a little tank inside Fragrance Mouse’s belly where you put the essential oils. But don’t worry about spilling, because there’s a porous insert that absorbs them.
Although they are sold separately, both peripherals are supposed to be office-quiet, with scissor keys on the Marshmallow and quiet switches in the mouse. Fragrance Mouse is weird, but I would go for it if it were a nice, comfortable trackball instead. But this thing isn’t even meant for left-handers. It should be hitting Microcenter soon, but you’ll have to buy the Marshmallow keyboard from ASUS directly.

Many of us have them, few of us really hack on them: well, here we’re talking about large home appliances. [Severin von Wnuck-Lipinski] and [Hajo Noerenberg] were both working on washing machines, found each other, and formed a glorious cooperation that ended in the unholy union of German super-brands Miele and B/S/H — a Miele washer remote controlled by Siemens’ web app.
About halfway through the talk, [Hajo] takes over, dissecting the internal D-Bus communication protocol. Here, you have to open up the box, but then you get easy access to everything about the internal state of the machine. And D-Bus seems to be used in a wide range of B/S/H/ home appliances, so this overview should give you footing for your own experimentation on coffee machines or dishwashers as well. Of course, he wires up an ESP32 to the bus, and connects everything, at the lowest level, to his home automation system, but he also went the extra mile and wrote up a software stack to support it.
It’s a great talk, with equal parts humor and heroic hacking. If you’re thinking about expanding out your own home automation setup, or are even just curious about what goes on inside those machines these days, you should absolutely give it a watch.
Editor Note: The “S” is Siemens, which is Hackaday’s parent company’s parent company. Needless to say, they had nothing to do with this work or our reporting on it.
NTP is one of the most interesting and important, but all too forgotten, protocols that makes the internet tick. Accurate clock synchronization is required for everything ranging from cryptography to business and science. NTP is closely tied around a handful of atomic clocks, some in orbit on GPS satellites, and some in laboratories. So the near-failure of one such atomic clock sparked a rather large, and nerdy, internet debate.
On December 17, 2025, the Colorado front range experience a massive wind storm. The National Center for Atmospheric Reassure in Boulder recorded gusts in excess of 100 mph (about 85 knots or 160 kph). This storm was a real doozy, but gusts this strong are not unheard of in Boulder either. That is no small reason the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (now the National Laboratory of the Rockies) has a wind turbine testing facility in the neighborhood.
High winds and dry weather make for a particularly bad time. Winds of this nature would not terribly interesting. However, the wind storm brought with it a particularly dangerous red flag warning outside of Boulder, a first for Colorado. Such high fire danger combined with damaged infrastructure prompted the local utility, Xcel Energy, to shut off power for hundreds of thousands of customers starting on December 17. Power was not regained until December 21 for many customers.
This outage came with all sorts of headaches to research institutions across Colorado. Not least of which was the National Institute of Science Technology’s (NIST) Boulder campus which houses a rather precise atomic clock. Due to predicted failure of NIST’s heat exchange, much of the normal monitoring equipment was unavailable to the scientists, further complicating the situation.
As was designed, once utility power failed, backup generators took over. But as the outage dragged on, indications came to the scientists in charge of the atomic clocks at NIST that one of the generators had failed. This prompted scientists to warn against relying on the Boulder NTP sources. The scientists running the clock feared complete failure of the hydrogen source clocks. Such failure would require a lengthy and complex re-start procedure once power was returned in the long term, and complete failure of a stratum one NTP source in the short term.
Further complicating the already bad situation was the fact that due to the dangers involved, the scientists could not reach the campus. So not only could they not confirm with certainty what issues the clocks may be experiencing, but they were unable to shut down the NTP servers. Fortunately, power was returned and the main source clock only drifted by a few microseconds. This is still far too much drift as would be preferred on a clock normally accurate in the range of nanoseconds, but perfectly usable for NTP which is only accurate to within a few milliseconds.
So this prompts the question, if such a key time source had failed, what would have happened? In short, not much. By nature of being so distributed, most servers have multiple NTP sources, often including GPS satellites. However, there would most certainly be any number of servers without multiple NTP sources configured. Websites hosted on such servers would be rendered inaccessible as HTTPS encryption handshakes require synchronized clocks. TOTP passkeys and FIDO hardware authenticators would likewise be unusable as both protocols rely on accurate time sources. So any two computers would be unable to properly execute protocols requiring synchronized time. Beyond the limited failures outlined above, its difficult to say what more the damage could be, but the effects are unlikely to be terribly dramatic.

“This is so fucking stressful,” Jason said. On a group call, all four of us—Jason, Sam, Emanuel, and me—were bidding on something that had long eluded us. 404media.com. Not the .co domain we launched with two years ago because that’s all we could afford. But a fully-fledged .com.
That September day I was on holiday in an Airbnb. Sam was in San Diego to report on the sentencing of a high profile sex trafficker. Emanuel was home. Jason was also at home and eating a bagel. Ordinarily we wouldn’t be able to buy a .com for two main reasons: they are typically quite expensive, and when we created our company the domain was already in use by someone else.
Fortunately for us, that company had seemingly moved on to other things, and the domain was up for auction. I got some emails from our domain registrar about the auction a few days before, and some 404 Media readers contacted us about it too. This was our chance.
But an auction is a very different experience to just buying the domain outright. We would be trying to beat other people or bots. We thought that might include those kindly trying to buy the domain on our behalf, or others trying to take it from underneath us. And we had no idea how high the price might go.
I was in charge of placing the bids themselves. Soon we found I wasn’t able to place bids of a certain size because, we later learned, the account didn’t have the necessary level of verification to do so. We were leading with a bid of $1,207.
A few minutes into our group call, Jason started recording it.
“I think we should just get 202 Media if this doesn’t work,” he said.
“Okay, under one minute until the five minute extension is over,” I added.
Emanuel led a ten second countdown.
“Your bid won,” I read from the screen. Everyone cheered. Here is what we said immediately afterwards: A transcript of some of the group call. Right now, our .com domain just redirects to the .co one. Maybe we’ll put an Easter Egg or something else fun on it soon, but we also had practical reasons for buying it. The first is that we’re proud to say 404 Media is a well known publication at this point, and we don’t want anyone else parking and abusing the .com domain that many people may end up at by mistake. The second is that, understandably, many people mistakenly email us at the @404media.com domain rather than the @404media.co domain, so now we’ll be able to catch those lost emails and save us all a lot of heartache.
But our ability to buy the domain signifies something important: that we are able to grow, bit by bit, sustainably. When we launched 404 Media in August 2023, we each put $1,000 in. That was to pay for the domain, the content management system (CMS) and website host we use called Ghost, some other add-ons that automatically send people emails, and that’s about it. Buying a .com was a pipedream then, just like running a website and podcast years later was.
Since then we’ve built a fulltext RSS feed for our subscribers (something that didn’t exist with Ghost before); run multiple in-person events; and most recently produced a physical zine. All while reporting and writing cutting edge journalism on technology and AI and how they are really impacting humans every day.
Thank you to all of our paying subscribers who make it possible for us to write impactful journalism every day. And let us buy a new domain.
We paid for the development of full text RSS feeds for Ghost-based publishers. Now we can offer them to our paid subscribers, and other Ghost sites can use the service too.

L’anno che volge al termine è stato caratterizzato da tanti momenti rilevanti, non solo per la vita della Chiesa e la comunità dei fedeli. In uno scenario globale caratterizzato da conflitti, disuguaglianze e timori per il futuro della nostra casa comune, l’anno giubilare ha permesso di custodire e coltivare la speranza. Abbiamo dato l’ultimo saluto a papa Francesco, dopo 12 anni di un pontificato intenso e coraggioso, e accolto con emozione papa Leone XIV che, in continuità con il suo predecessore, ha chiesto alla nostra rivista di continuare a «cogliere lo sguardo di Cristo sul mondo, coltivarlo, comunicarlo, testimoniarlo». Accogliendo l’invito del Pontefice, vogliamo ripercorrere le riflessioni che ci hanno accompagnato lungo tutto l’anno santo, rileggendo con voi i 12 articoli più letti pubblicati nel 2025.

Arizona – the Arizona Pirate Party will start the year off by hosting their first in-person meeting in the Tucson area, expected to be held at a public library. Discussions will include expectations for the upcoming year, the Henry campaign, among other topics. The Arizona Pirate Party has also been actively working to help Nevada and Colorado to get a Pirate Party officially formed in their states.
Illinois – the Illinois Pirate Party released their meeting dates for 2026 for both the Illinois Pirate Party and the Chicagoland Pirate Party. The first Illinois Pirate Party will be held January 4th over Jitsi. In-person meetings for both Chicagoland and Illinois will take place in earnest come August. Otherwise, meetings are expected to be held over Jitsi unless stated otherwise.
West Virginia – Those seeking a warm place to sleep have a location available in Keyser, WV. The link and address can be found in the link to the meeting posted below.
Committee News – A renewed focus shall be put onto our committees within the US Pirate Party. Regular meetings are scheduled to be held weekly for Platform, Outreach, IT and Press Committee. A new chair, USPP PR Director Cy Kindsfather, will take over for the Outreach Committee. You can join our Discord server to find more information on committees and to get involved in the discussions.
Volunteers – We are actively seeking volunteers! This is nothing new, but if you are from the states of Idaho, Michigan, Montana, North Carolina, Ohio or West Virginia, especially, you are incredibly close to having an official party in your state. It would only take a couple volunteers to make it official, and all it might take is you (yes, YOU ).
Quote of the Week – “That’s what’s called leadership… those of us who are willing to actually look around and see ‘this isn’t getting done so I guess I’m gonna try to do something’. That’s leadership.” – Drew Bingaman

«Grande è la ricchezza di un mondo in agonia», scriveva Ernst Bloch. Per il momento, con l’iniziativa che è ancora nelle mani di Stati e tecnocrati, questa «agonia» è ricca soprattutto di disastri, di coercizioni e di guerre, il cui tessuto di silicio copre letteralmente la vista. Se quella di uscire progressivamente da questa «infermità sovra-equipaggiata», con l’accumulazione quantitativa delle lotte e delle forze, è un’illusione fuori tempo massimo, anche l’idea che gli scossoni delle rivolte riannodino improvvisamente i fili dell’esperienza umana e del giudizio critico risulta a suo modo consolatoria. Serve più che mai la lucidità di far proprie delle verità scomode. Ad esempio, che non c’è alcun progetto rivoluzionario bell’e pronto da ereditare dal passato; e che non esistono delle capacità umane meta-storiche su cui fare affidamento. Il dominio ha scavato a fondo. Non solo per estorcere sotto tortura i segreti della vita biologica, sfruttata fin nelle sue particelle sub-atomiche; ma anche per condizionare fin nell’intimo degli individui il senso della libertà. Nondimeno, le forme autoritarie di organizzazione fanno sempre più fatica a imporsi nei movimenti, e lo spazio-tempo dentro il quale questi si sviluppano tende ad assomigliarsi sul piano internazionale. Resta probabilmente vero quello che diceva Gustav Landauer, e cioè che nelle epoche di rottura i rivoluzionari nascono per germinazione spontanea. Ma questo non è necessariamente vero per le rivoluzioni. Continua a leggere→
