It's #BandcampFriday again! For today Bandcamp waives their fees and all proceeds go to the artists!

I feel a little silly promoting my music over and over but I know not everyone who would like my music has heard it yet!

This opinion will be unpopular not because people will disagree with it but because it is incomprehensible

Today was a special day. I scored 1,016,221 points in classic NES Tetris, the first time I broke the 999,999 maxout barrier.

With that maxout, I became the oldest person to get their first ever maxout at 46 years 319 days.

After I scored that, I learned that today would have been 7-time Tetris world champion Jonas Neubauer's 43rd birthday.

I am FILLED with incredible emotion tonight.

Since I see that a notable VC-famous is now telling us that he wish he'd "stood by" Eich way back, I'd like to tell you a true fact that situation: Eich didn't lose the CEO's job for his (reprehensible) Prop-8 donation.

Everyone wants to believe that's true, because fits nicely into narratives a number of invested camps want to believe, whether it's somebody being ousted for reprehensible views the woke SJW mob somehow pulling down a great leader (tm) but that's not what happened.

There’s #demoscene, and then there’s this abomination of nature and genius

Somebody must have bet him that he couldn’t make a demo without the computer itself

(completely fucking up on my first day at the printing press) uhhh maybe nobody will notice

It's late enough to be hacker hours, if you're as old as I am. Gonna write down a bunch of rambly thoughts about #xz and #autoconf and capital-F Free Software sustainability and all that jazz. Plan is to edit it into a Proper Blog Post™ tomorrow. Rest of the thread will be unlisted but boosts and responses are encouraged.
