story time: at my previous job maintaining and porting applications to card payment machines we were briefly tasked with working on a new hardware from a new manufacturer. they brought in two people from the company who imports them from the manufacturer to teach us the SDK

if i turn on my computer but then don't touch it the gpu fans keep randomly ramping up and down until i actually interact with any part of the UI then it stops doing it for the rest of the session

mr gorbachev this wall is cringe bro

maybe it's not the healthiest way to go about this. but it's what's been keeping me alive without too much trauma and anxiety

it's lonely. it sucks. i can't share most other spaces because everything is competition-focused and i can't do that. but i'm trying to live better on my own & stop paying attention to other people to stop feeling jealous. mostly why i don't listen to a lot of friends' music

it took/it's taking a really long time to process that it's ok that i'm so different from everybody else. everyone i know loves competition, in games, in demos/musicmaking etc, and i just abhor it. it causes me great anxiety and pushes me out of neurotypical spaces

i love the people who circlejerk on tech communities about the battery life of their retro laptops. "oh yeah my compaq vaio satellite pro still lasts 4 hours" buddy not even the manufacturer ever claimed it did that long

don't even have anything to do with this just like having it on my desk

i don't want to be hardworking. i just want to make a living.
