Found an ubuntu image for my Parallella and spun it up, sshed in, got it to run! Then immediately crashed it generating primes on the Epiphany chip. Should probably hook up the serial to my terminal next time I use it.

I guess I have an FPGA to play with at least! Or for someone else to play with!

@Decimal oh Deci, darling ;w; I know what you're going through and how hard it is, and I want you to know you are talented and loved by all of us even if your workplace doesn't see your worth, and I desperately miss being able to see you in vrchat and hearing about how you're doing, good or bad!

I'm having some sensory issues so I think I'm going to lay down and try not to perceive things for a bit
