i've been stuck here for a couple days, trying to figure out how i feel about the opening song on here, but the only concrete feeling i get is that this shouldn't be here . like this cassette art is very adorable, but damn if it doesn't also have that "i made this :)" look to it. but then ...

i've had this melody kicking around for… wait fuck, a year now?! […] will i ever do anything with it? who knows at this point, but i'd like to, somehow. i guess i tried to uwu pureceiling_prot_20240829.mp3 or, i started sketching this out, though partway through the sketching process i started to g...

Otherwise, I've been playing with Tailscale and it's really cool. Suddenly I can have a personal network I access anywhere I go. Like it's not all perfect — I can't get huge media shares over SMB working flawless — but I can serve myself basic apps built on databases. I can keep central storage for...

i think i have a problem. genuinely, seriously.
or maybe i just can't help myself from trying things, just to see what would happen – or if anything would happen.

anyway greetings from emacs-w3m

i guess a barebones vimrc with just the motion keys rebound clocks in at 9 lines? and then my full doom bindings config file is a fair bit longer because i wanted to implement them for all the modes i cared about, as best as i could. i never got all the bugs worked out there, though. and aside from ...

emacs is… one of those things i really wanted to love, and tried to love. i love the idea of big, learn-once do-everything software (see how i took to obsidian), and i was hoping that it could be the end of my text editor discontent. and because spacemacs looked pretty, i picked it up and worked wit...

I'm not quite ready to start 1cc runs on anything, just yet. My first attempt at that will be Gradius II, possibly my favourite sequel ever. Trying to play through as many STGs as possible to figure out which titles appeal to me first. that's entirely fair! i always felt like stgs are surprisingly ...

life update: learned that local llms exist and aren't too hard to use, so i downloaded a few to try. i saw this chat model for generating (erotic?!) roleplay and became interested, since the concept of ai girlfriends is fascinating to me. i remember seeing articles about platforms that shut down the...

Short list of the titles that are currently queued up Flying Shark DOOM II (The new Nightdive update will motivate me to finish this) Giga Wing 1944: The Loop Master Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1+2 Hebereke 2 oh those are some good titles. for the arcade games, are you looking to get the 1cc? or just ma...

I adore y'all having names and a naming scheme for your computers! It's so sweet. For a while I named my standalone Linux boxes after planets in Ursula K Leguin's Hainish cycle, but now I just have "the computer I'm using" and some old ones. it's a nice little peek into someone's personal...

i can dump a whole lot more when i'm back home again but here's what my phone looks like: oh, right, i've been back home for a while now… my primary monitor (source deleted, danbooru mirror ): Screenshot_20240806_205917.jpg a secondary monitor, more cluttered to give off a more daily-use feel ( pix...

awwwww~ though that's interesting, since i haven't actively used a laptop since undergrad. though maybe that's partially a reflection of having a more homebody (hikki) lifestyle and partially because i see laptops as more fragile. there are so many things that can do them in, and they're harder to r...

oh i'm glad someone else is in the camp of seeing computers as a means of personal expression… honestly that's a really big part of why i find computers enjoyable and it has been for a while… ever since i learned how to enable the dock suck effect in os x tiger honestly. but there's a certain comfin...

After a long time I can assess how much I love something — from "I get into moods where I like this" to "I think this resonates with something deep inside me, something core into whatever it is that I am, and therefore is irreplaceable". From a more formalist, aesthetics-based a...

i guess you could call what is in there media reviews, though there is a continuum on how review-y they are. like, the only place i've posted reviews to was on rym , but those ended up taking on a public-facing tone, because i felt compelled to consider my writing in terms of the audience which may ...
