ah ha ha we did it

chaining and score multipliers, and a score display, now potentially fully implemented

this has finally reached "playable" status, though there's much more to do before it's "releasable"

trying to untangle cc65 code we wrote years ago and feeling intensely mocked by the previous iterations who were responsible for it as we futilely try to continue work on this project

pouring one out* for kissinger

* into my mouth. because i'm celebrating his death

hot take but i think ISPs should return to giving every user a couple hundred megs of space on a public facing web server & encourage them to build little homepages. the corporatization of the web really hit overdrive when the persistent web presence of the average user stopped being a bunch of handwritten HTML and random files they wanted to share and instead became a profile template on a social media site

i'm trying to think of ways that i can play ds games and stream them while still being able to play them with the original controls. best i've come up with is using an emulator on PC and something that streams the emulator video to the DS and the touch and buttons back to the emulator but nobody seems to have made that yet. does anyone know of anything else like that

i am, once again, angry* about computers**

* mildly upset

** the general regard for computing hardware and software doled out by people with more societal pull than me

the same people who brigaded for webp and avif adoption under the guise of less storage/bandwidth are the ones who told me "hard drive is cheap* now**" and are the ones proselytizing for the nuking of unattended accounts so i'm like, 90% sure that anyone giving you hardware advice on the internet is wrong

* if you live in the global north

** if you have a disposable income

I COMMAND YOU TO RISE FROM YOUR GRAVE AND RESCUE MY DAUGHTER

check this out. gonna show you a really cool trick. (gets killed on the first stage by a roaming enemy while fixing up my sleeves)

if someone "cheats" in a non-competitive non-goal oriented or, goddess forbid, single-player game, and you get upset about it? i beg you to find a hobby

i can't tell if i'm doing something wrong or if the phoenix live view guys really thought hosting a single static non interactive landing page that still inexplicably requires postgres was the best demo they could come up with for their highly interactive html-on-the-server framework

Poverty shouldn't exist. For anyone. Ever. Too often I hear 'No one with a job should live in poverty.' True. But let's go further. No one should live in poverty, job or not. Jobs should be a ticket to more than just survival.

Think thriving, not surviving; buying fun, not life.

richard stallman, pedofilia 

Drew DeVault ha recopilado las preocupantes opiniones de Richard Stallman sobre pedofilia, acoso sexual, y otros temas sensibles sobre los que habla sin saber.

Todo esto es público y notorio desde hace tiempo, pero lo que más me duele es que universidades y grupos de usuarios de GNU/Linux de todo el mundo le siguen invitando, también en España.

Sigo esperando a que la comunidad de software libre rompa con él y mire al futuro.
