Hi! I'm Aki! I'm a software engineer by trade but I also do a bit of hardware design and maybe some reverse engineering once in a while. I've picked up the unfortunate hobby of doing research and development for various obscure and curious things, most of which are quite niche. And as such, in order to give back to the community at large I strive to make all of my work free and open source. This includes hardware designs, CAD/CAM files, FPGA gateware, firmware, software, etc. basically the whole stack from silicon to bits. A few notable projects I currently maintain and am working are are as follows: <ul><li><a href="https://github.com/lethalbit/lethallink" target="_blank">lethalink</a> - A flexible PCIe DMA based debug platform for x86 machines</li><li><a href="https://github.com/lethalbit/libfortress" target="_blank">libfortress</a> - A library to consume and generate every debug information format ever conceived</li><li><a href="https://github.com/lethalbit/Slice-N-Splice" target="_blank">Slice-N-Splice</a> - An FFMPEG like tool for inspecting and altering object files for most executable object file formats under the sun&nbsp;</li></ul>With many more to come in the future. With how expensive hardware R&amp;D is, I figured it would be a good idea to set up a patreon to allow people interested to contribute to "lethalbit's R&amp;D fund" so to speak. I've got a full time job, so I'm not looking for income-replacing levels of support (but not gonna lie, being able to work on open source hardware and software for a living is a dream), but if you're interested in kicking in a buck or two once a month I'd be&nbsp;greatly appreciated~

Free

Help with the R&amp;D fund, and get access to all of the patron-only updates, mostly consisting of silly prototype ideas and one-offs.  You'll also get your name as a shout out at the end of my livestream as extra thanks for the support. That's it, there are no other tiers.
