I opened a box of two frozen pizza baguette halves, and one of them was facing downward! That has NEVER happened before!!

Reasons weâre not the galaxyâs most basic bitch species after all, #1:
We have a bazillion muscles in our faces with which we can inaudibly express amusement, adoration, contempt, curiosity, confusion, disgust, anger, boredom, contentment, happiness, fear, nervousness, triumph, sympathy⊠essentially anything encoded in the Intergal Emoji Standard of 2563 except for uwu because wth sort of face is that anyway.
Can the insectoids of Toctiqetec do that? NOPE.
Apple/cinnamon is not nearly as delicious an idea for a shower foam/gel scent as vanilla/cookie dough⊠couldâve known!
When did we go from âgender shouldnât matter in most everyday situationsâ to âeveryone, state your gender and preferred pronounâ? For someone whoâs shy, in the closet, or feeling insecure about their presentation, it can be uncomfortable to be put on the spot like that (and it can lead to public self-denial lest the legitimacy of oneâs claimed gender be assessed (quietly) by a whole group of people at once)

Christmas can be hard. If youâre alone, if youâre feeling alienated or excluded from the warmth and cheer and togetherness, if youâre half-buried under failures or holiday stressâŠ
I want to send you ((hugs)) and what <3 love I have to give and tell you you are not alone in this. *We* are not alone in this.
And now is not the time to condemn yourself. Try not to flee what daylight there is. Donât busy your mind holding all your sorrows and pain at once, to be evaluated and despaired over time and time again⊠try, just try, to step out from those long shadows youâve grown. The present moment can be enough for now. The small things, the little joys, maybe some youâve almost forgotten, you big grim adult, you!⊠and maybe thatâs vague self-help babble, and I can clearly not heal myself either.

Does anyone else experience confusing menus or an overabundance of title and interstitial screens and intros and logos as an efficient deterrent when it comes to even starting a video game? Dragonâs Dogma: Dark Arisen is one of the worst offenders in my library, along with Capcom Arcade Stadium, Mega Drive Classics, Zaccharia Pinball, Atari Vault⊠maybe all those "simulated arcades/living rooms" but even that could be implemented with far fewer extra steps. And the logo plague is universalâŠ

Especially when considering I can swap out part of the charset when transitioning to a different map that may have a different biome or society
So the inverse colour characters on the Commodore 8-bit machines are in fact not generated from the regular 128 chars but are simply characters 129-256 (or 128-255 if you will) and thus redefinable. My dream of a plus/4 Ultima-lite RPG with reasonably sized character tile graphics is not entirely dead
The world becomes less scary when I think of it as just a giant classroom. The lower-brow tough normie kids with their blunt, open contempt and ridicule and the odd seriousness of their silly hostility; the activist kids with their ironic and sarcastic remarks, barely predictable offence-taking, and conditional acceptance; the straight-A overachievers who barely recognise your existence; the fellow outcasts who donât necessarily like you (or you them) but are the ones whoâll have youâŠ

I read that book; was interesting; have little to no personal experience with the male milieus she immersed herself in.
Not sure you can just conclude that thatâs what drove her to end her life, even if she described these experiences as eye-opening and harrowing (and felt guilty about deceiving people).

âLegionâ of elves? That seems wildly anachronistic and also out of character. Call it a host of elves plx? Admittedly I have not read any Tolkien in a while. Maybe Iâm wrong

I kinda feel like inventing a virtual town outside any demographics-based punching up/down/sideways and culture warfare for people to come together and start over with their own âboroughsâ or âestatesâ and just pretend to be a future or parallel reality nation in which we can all live and let live and be individuals

VSCode interprets my ASCII art as Perl code =)
Iâm not going to call her his âsex dollâ just because he ordered her from his fantasies into his life; longing & smitten-ness are made of more than rutting. Luo/the book?/its author? may have a sexist streak (proof of which this margin is 2small2contain); so do often the publicly fairest, most enlightened humansâ private needs, for social & innocent biological reasons. For them I prescribe self-aware fatalist acceptance; for the book⊠idk
Later, Mr Luo, given immense powers as an unpredictable analysis-proof âWallfacerâ, requisitions a real-life version of said dream woman. The way Da Shi knows exactly what he means & finds him a woman right out of his daydreams rather outweighs the disbelief I can suspend⊠(but I suppose there is a type that âdoesâ it, if not in practice then at a daydream level. Sensitive, intelligent, imaginative, utterly open & innocent & petite & delicate & protective-instincts-rousing; a Bambi Pixie Dream Girl)
So second bookâs love-unbelieving main guy Luo Ji at the behest of his love-believing, YA-novels-writing girlfriend dreams up the perfect woman and to his own astonishment 1. falls in love with this imaginary creature 2. goes on a road trip with her because sheâs just that real to him. ⊠Is that an option?

How (non-)sensical is this whole business of unfolding a subatomic particleâs dimensions from M-theoryâs eleven down tosix, three, twoâŠ? The Trisolarans unfold a proton to two dimension to inscribe integrated circuits on its now immense surface, turning it into a particle-sized computer that can conveniently be accelerated to near the speed of light⊠is a two-dimensional object even possible in three-dimensional space?

âA live action Pac-Man movie is on the wayâ â didnât expect to hear thatâŠ
So, watched RMCâs video on the VecFever. I hadnât realised colour vector arcade games like Atariâs Star Wars used CRTs with shadow masks, costing them some of that cleanness and vibrancy associated with vector displays.

She got up in the very doomed, dramatic way she had and left them, and Lactamaeon, second in command of Yr, whispered, âIf one is to be doomed, one must be beautiful, or the drama is only a comedy. And therefore, UnbeautifulâŠâ

There should be some sort of loungey, living-roomy place-to-hang-out-at for queer/ace/trans/kinky/whatnot types (the types could vary daily) where you could just relax/read/game/draw/crochet/write/code/cuddle/stare off into space, and you wouldnât *have* to make contact with anyone, but if you did (would?) want to socialise, youâd know youâd have some specific thing in common, at least in a broader sense (in practice this can mean bugger all), and you wouldnât have to justify or explain it

Today I learned an âopen relationshipâ is just getting to have sex with other people whom youâre not dating and donât love. So for me that would be _worse_ than monogamy. But I guess my partner would be welcome to it to take the sex pressure off me. đ The priorities of people with sex drives are strange and frustrating.
Polyamory is the desirable one.

So just for fun (this is fun for me) I tried to come up with a non-jokey Latin phrase for âDonât let the bastards grind you downâ:
Non patimini beluas pessum atterere vos = Donât let the brutes/beasts grind you down/into ruin
Nolite pati beluas pessum atterere vos = You donât want to let the brutes/beasts grind you down/into ruin (if youâre attached to the âNoliteâ)
NOTE: This might be gibberish. Donât use on actual Latinians.
I just invented guidelines for life
1. That banning/mandating/regulating (something) would make life nicer in some regard is not sufficient reason to actually do so.
2. Donât be heartless. Maybe not everyoneâs fighting some hard battle youâre just not privy to, but itâs more common than you know, and itâs not just the people you like.
3. You wouldnât treat anyone else this badly, so why are you doing it to yourself?
4. You can change and be things you currently arenât. You arenât in any âhardwiredâ way cursed or excluded from life.
5. Itâs easy to be a saint in paradise or a devil in hell. Would you be equally good under all circumstances?
6. If life gives you lemons, you can still just go explore the universe.
7. Consider how much the media get wrong about the stuff you know. How much do they get wrong about the stuff you donât know? And how much might âyour sideâ get wrong about âthe other sideâ?
8. An it harm none, do as thou art told. (Okay, that oneâs a semiprivate joke)
9. The truth doesnât care about your feelings, but stuffâs not true just because it hurts.

Finally understood âAunt Floâ! Flow! DuuuhâŠ
Watched Dune at last. Iâm⊠really disappointed? âDesert powerâ *rolls eyes*⊠how anachronistic (for the world of Dune)! People sound mundane, present-day-ish, and largely uninvolved. Nothing has colour. There's little grandeur or sense of a rich cultural heritage â just this grey desaturated utilitarian military flavour to all but the spice-blue eyes. Of course the David Lynch movie had the opulence cranked up to eleven for House Atreidis and the Corrinos, but it did at least show off more of the Dune universe and made it quite clear that it was a very different age and world. Edricâs (the Guild navigator) visit to the Emperor with his news of Ix (the meaning of which would be lost to anyone unfamiliar with the book) certainly helped âweirdifyâ Dune as well. Oh, well. It can only get more interesting as the story picks up pace in future movies. Right?

Oh em gee, look at the prettiness coming to my "problematic" first computer love! Back in the day (mid-80s++) I wouldn't have believed it possible.

Q: Would you like to see companies embrace gender(-)neutral German?
A: Not until there actually is such a thing as gender-neutral German. In my maybe not so humble opinion, the current incarnation with the "gender star/colon/underscore" is no better than the generic masculine. While it frequently works out in the singular (apart from the "*" confusing the normies), plurals like "Ărzt*innen" or "Professor*innen" really just inject an asterisk into the feminine form: "Ărzt" doesn't mean anything, and "Professor" isn't the intended masculine plural form either. Using the asterisk as in set theory or like a DOS-/UNIX-style wildcard won't help with that either; the wildcard doesn't work like that. And the nerd and pedant in me is bothered by that. I think the slash thing or mentioning both was better even if it took up more space ("Ărzte/Ărztinnen", "Ărztinnen und Ărzte").
I started thinking about how, when you close your eyes, your eyes nonetheless remain active and awake behind your eyelids, and somehow that's freaky, and now I'm afraid I'll never sleep again
If the Doctor (Star Trek) and other holograms were indeed "photonics", they'd be visible in the dark. But no, they merely reflect light like the rest of us. Yet they probably don't even glow in the infrared! What a scam. "Photons be free" indeed.
I would like to propose the existence of a shameful "kink" among the privacy-minded: a secret, tortuous longing for the final blissful peace-bringing surrender of every detail of your life to Amazon, the government, Google, several other governments, et cetera. YOU WILL EXIST IN NAKED SUBMISSION TO A STATE OF GRACE ONLY NORMIES HAVE KNOWN

I don't dislike "Visual Novels" on principle. Like text adventures They often have far more interesting and, uh, non-normie stories than the more luxurious video games. But imagine reading a book that has only one sentence per page, with some of the pages containing nothing but ââŠâ. That's what the *gameplay* is like. Goes for dialogue sequences in JRPGs, too.

Q: If you had to guess, do you think humans will go extinct in the next 1000 years?
A: They're resourceful little buggers. They will hang on for way longer than that, even if it might not be by the billions. Think about what this would require: billions of individuals from a resourceful and technologically inventive species ALL gone with not even one "Adam and Eve" combo remaining, and be it in abject misery, in highly artificial surroundings, in the last patch of uncontacted tribal territory on earth, in an underground bunker, on Mars, or in the Google AI's petting zoo.

Been over a week that I merged XDG_CONFIG_HOME and XDG_DATA_HOME, still no issues :)
Learned some C with ncurses. 1985, here I come! <3
Yoiks, was operating with about 20% of my mind on the Trine stream and finding it enormously funny that nothing made any senseâŠ
...people photosynthesise with purple skin to save scant food, die at 35 (another side-effect of wiping out cancer, who'd have thought!), and have knowledge, memories, desirable behaviour and skills imparted by viruses -- yet it doesn't feel half bad, because it also means there's no need for locks, police, fear of walking alone in the dark; everything just seems to be running itself without having guns pointed at it; life's... not easy, but informal
It plays on all the senses without ever feeling indulgently hedonist or 'purple'. It'll manage to gross you out *adoringly*. Huge genetically engineered antarctic miners (polar bears) who you'd expect to be an oppressed underclass are a rugged wealthy separate culture that'll take the mickey out of us squishy mind-controlled normies; the eradication of cancer let tumours replicate the host body so well as to produce immortal deformed-looking copies...
Been finding it hard to booklog; it's still what I'd love to have written but so dense with ideas to process and integrate into an internal coherent model -- melancholically playful, whimsical when it should be creeping you out; a dystopia you (sometimes) half want to live in...
Have merged XDG_CONFIG_HOME and XDG_DATA_HOME into one, since developers barely know when to use which as it is. Nothing's fallen over dead yet, not even AkonadiâŠ

It's time for that old outburst of anger again, because I can't view a single German website without losing my temper any more. YOU. UTTER. FICKING. AR$âŹHOLES. DESTROYED. THE. FREE. OPEN.

That "Datenschutzerklaerung" and that "Impressum" demand a level of self-exposure (self-doxxing, really) and legalese-compliance that a decently-sized business may be able to deal with but not an intimidateable individual with a need for privacy and a hunger to find the other weirdos of the world. BURN IN HELL YOU SHITS.
Iâll have to talk fragmentarily about this book while Iâm reading it. It's the sort of colourfully imaginative but grounded-feeling life-as-an-XYZ-sort-of-creature-detailing "soft" sci-fi I'd want to write if I wanted to take up the responsibility of writing sci-fi, that is to say, to presume to be able to speculate with some level of plausibility.
