Portal Ending – Still Alive – on an Exercise Machine
Thanks for all the comments, guys! I made an HD version, here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hfmGnLMlKvs
Exercise machine computer modified to perform the portal ending.
Thanks to 256byteram for releasing source code- I got the music data from there.
The project took 3 days: one day to replace the CPU, one day to write the drivers and engine, and one day to prepare the data.
The original CPU was an 8051 clone. This was replaced with a dsPIC30F4011 because I have the tools and equipment to program it.
Source code:

… I was very bored.

I would really like …
I would really like to know why you decide to be such an ass. Why do you act like this? For fun? Or is that really how you think and respond? I’m being serious.

I know you’re eyeballing it pretty hard but honestly I dont even think my dick could fit into your mouth.

And this makes you feel better about yourself? Going on the internet and picking on random people to get over the ignorant you are?

What the is …
What the is your problem?
What has he done to you?
What has he done that made you decide to be so negative to him?
He was inspired by something he liked and decided to do this and show us. If you have nothing nice to say, then just don’t comment instead of making yourself look like a jackass to an upwards of 40,000 people.

This was a music …
This was a music fan’s creative project at programming something unique to do something amazing. If you think having an exercise machine decides a person’s personal status, you need to re-examine your standards.

That would be a bit …
That would be a bit hard. First, the president would have to issue an order. Then, they would have to figure out how to monitor every piece of technology in the USA. Finally, they’d have to threaten people with nuclear weapons to make sure that they do it. So, yeah, pretty much impossible.

It really shocks me …
It really shocks me that such basic and generic bleeps and bloops carry that much emotion on it. Valve hit the nail on the head with a great tune.
