Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Linux on a Commodore 64
Not Linux related, but I've been trying trying recent (at least to me..) C-64 accessories:
I've tried the "Kung Fu Flash"- it's a software defined cartridge that is cheap- just a single STM32 and can do pretty much everything. I bought this because I'm trying to duplicate the developer experience I see on "8-bit show and tell"- it can emulate the "super snapshot", but not the REU. It's a really nice way to quickly try a lot of C-64 software and games.

I also have an SD2IEC: what I've learned is that it would have been useful to get a variant with an extra DIN socket. It's nice but I was never a fan of C-64's DOS and this reinforces it. To mount a D64 disk image you have to: OPEN1,8,15,"CD:MYIMAGE.D64":CLOSE1... yuck..
JiffyDOS (replacement ROM for the C-64) improves this (it's faster and includes a permanent DOS wedge), I bought one- it's on the way. I'm curious to try it with the real 1541 drive.

Am I too old to videogame?
The advice I've seen regarding current videogames seems sound (particularly: Get a Steam account).
Here's some advice regarding C64:
>Floppy disk is incredibly slow
Floppy really is slow without a fastloader. I use EPYX fastload[0], as an emulated cartridge on kung-fu flash[1].
Also consider sd2iec[2] as an alternative to an actual floppy drive.
>it's super difficult to find new games (these floppy disks with games are crazy expensive on eBay)
Research TOSEC[3][4]. Some archives[5] are available at The Internet Archive.
And about retro-gaming in general:
>maybe using a multi-system platform like the Overcame console?
I suggest the miSTer[6], a multi-system FPGA solution, because it is open source and has the strongest ecosystem there is for this sort of thing.

- Commodore 64 (Purchased a joystick switcher and Kung Fu Flash card) My thoughts. The device is actually really cool BUT.. NOT a full replacement to the SD2IEC as it does not support disk switching. :( However it DOES support CRT cartridge's files!! and has some sweet menu special and reset buttons!

Turning 1702 on/off resets C64
The fact that the KFF Helps doesn't seem to be electrically. The reset line is only connected to the Collector of a NPN Transistor, see Q1 in https://github.com/KimJorgensen/KungFuFlash/blob/master/hardware/KungFuFlash.pdf
- Kung Fu Flash v1.42 Support 128k Super Snapshot ROM

Fastloader options for pi1541
Maybe Kung-Fu Flash will work with your system. It allows you to load cartridge files from a MicroSD card. So, you could have all of the fastloaders like FastLoad, Mach III, Super Snapshot, etc, on a single cartridge.
- Kung Fu Flash v1.41 is out now \o/ support Pagefox cartridge. Device number can be set to 8-15. Improve disk emulation
- New Kung Fu Flash v1.37 out now - Optimize VIC-II read access for ultimax cartridges
- Kung Fu Flash v1.36 Disk emulation support large PRGs Improve disk emulation loading speed Load and mount is now default for PRGs

Trying to write a 6502 assembler, but struggling with labels
The resulting symbol table can also be exported, either as debug information in the object file, or as a text listing. An example from 64tass: https://github.com/irmen/64tass/
