i suppose the original Hitman in itself wasn't that much less weird, because the metaplot is about 47 tracking down all of the sources of his genetic code (the aforementioned super-criminals) to kill them, and one of them is basically just Tony Montana from Scarface in a really long and annoying jungle level

good morning. i dreamed that I'd decided to replay Hitman: Codename 47. i vaguely remembered Hitman being about a secret society of super-criminals, but i did not remember that one of them summoned humanoid flies or that one of them was a life-sized papier-mache dinosaur.

@joe aw, that's a shame, Haiku is exactly silly enough for a funny little subnotebook like that 😄​

@pencilears the other week, some mild roadblocks were stopping me from doing something that I wanted to do. "I *refuse* to be defeated by the likes of you!" I snapped, in my best saturday morning villain voice.

they stopped being a roadblock shortly thereafter.

we're doing it again

@techokami I was! it got surprisingly far into the process after disabling Vulkan support but it stopped on some issue that I couldn't figure out https://github.com/UZDoom/UZDoom/issues/2000

but I'll have to see if the suggestion in this issue ticket does anything

perhaps i have not introduced this part of the net to PonderSlab; this is a Thinkpad T61 from around 2006. it's got a Core 2 Duo, 4 GB RAM, a 250 GB SSD that I added myself, and it's currently running FreeBSD 15.1 because I got bored.

It's more usable than I expected it to be in this setup; there's some things I have not figured out yet, but it seems comfortable with LXQt.

i wish this resulted in a working binary, but there is apparently a 20 year old known issue that prevents this from compiling under FreeBSD

the occasional hobby of mine: forcing old computers to do things that max out CPU usage
