@adiwan We're currently going through the once-a-century social hysteria so at least one of them is true, the other requires more study.

I-66 coming out of Washington had a bunch of construction being done on it tonight which meant I couldn’t get into any of the exits leading home. The result is that I had to drive through the dying rural part of Northern Virginia to get home. Two lanes, one in each direction, on a winding, narrow, wooded road in a “The Hills Have Eyes” looking area, critters everywhere, ominous glimpses of dilapidated ranch-style homes with pickups and Trump 2024 signage, and just when you thought it couldn’t get any spookier, a decapitated deer laying in a pool of its own blood that I had to avoid running over. Jordan Peele couldn’t have depicted a more uncomfortable drive.

@zeldatra this sounds like a genuinely exciting roadtrip, it needs spoopy music

I spoiled myself with a game treat and bought the game Tunic. It's a fine game. It is a cross between Zelda and Dark Souls. I had quite some fun but oh boy it is hard. Thankfully there is an accessibility option to make it easy. I used it only two times because my thumbs were already hurting enough and I didn't want to start a boss fight 100 times over. It is best to get into the game blind. I do admit that I looked up stuff at the end of the game because the puzzles to get the true ending are hard as heck and I have a life beyond that game.

@scribus It looks damn good but I'm not really in a mood for a brawler. Back in the day I played more Power Rangers The Movie on SNES because I didn't have Turtles in Time (only played as a rental at a friend's house).

@scribus Out of nowhere I remembered the ""Injun"" song from Peter Pan for the first time in twenty years and on a rewatch, oh man. Oh man
-
@thelastgherkin Well you inspired me to go back and take a look at it. I always wondered why people weren't more offended, but I still forgot half of how bad it is.

it is kind of a long shot, but are any of you nerds good with that Julia programing language?

@mushi I know a guy who's been using it for a few years. What do you need?
-
@vernandex i literally need everything xD.
I accidentally ended up on a course on it and it is my first contact with coding and i'm screwed xD -
@mushi ...well, here's everything: https://docs.julialang.org/en/v1/. Have fun with programming, I guess.

@ceruleanspark Awesome! Is there any way to chat privately?
-
@feelsbadman Yep. You should be able to DM me with the “Message” button in my profile.

@ceruleanspark Sorry to bother, did you get my messages?

@scribus I mean last week I managed, using only apt-get upgrade, to uninstall grub from the server, so this is way more "on" than it was

@ceruleanspark Oh. Missed that, then.

@ceruleanspark Maybe I should finally look into why my personal dot com is 50x-ing me....

So has anyone ported Doom to the Virtual Boy, and do they make a good VB emulator for a VR headset yet? !vgp
Sunday, 01-Aug-21 17:44:27 UTC from web-
@scribus There's actually a VB emulator for the Oculus Quest 2. It's called "Virtual Boy Go".

@ceruleanspark Hmm... I could sure go for a round of Teleroboxer again...

I'm not big into LEGO but somehow I want a Star Wars Clone Wars Gunship set.
Thursday, 15-Jul-21 19:19:37 UTC from web-
@adiwan I hope they've revised the design since I tried to build Gherkins old one. That build is an unfun nightmare and produces the flimsiest model.
-
@ceruleanspark From what I've seen is big and sturdy. But I can only say that as an opinion without much insight and experience with big LEGO builds. I want it but I am aware that these sets are luxuriously expensive. I rather buy new Winter tyres for that kind of money.
-
@adiwan Gherkins was one of the first-gen models from the AOTC era, so it's entirely possible they've made the design slightly less likely to just explode on contact with a stiff breeze.

E-mails asking me if I wanna be harder and longer, meanwhile I've been hard long enough and just wanna mellow, man....

So, i'm in my PhD now, i got a cotutelle scholarship with the university of Lorraine, in france (i speak nearly nothing of french tho, so my first time going to france qas a hell of an adventure. Brazil is even messier than before and i might have gotten even more reclusive than before (though now i'm much more well paid :'v )

@scribus yeah,maybe i can even get vaccinated when i go to france again in september xD

I mean like look if you’re 19 and she’s 17 then neither of you really has your mango together, so who cares, right? But RageNineteen was 28 years old and dating a 16 year old who he’d met when she was 15 while dating her friend who was also 15, and that’s just supposedly normal in the YouTube world?? The hell’s going on????

@scribus To answer the question I just got via email, the server is a basic digitalocean droplet. The $20 one. Depending on how much traffic you're expecting, you could easily run a couple of instances on there.
Wednesday, 07-Apr-21 22:48:40 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark Groovy, thanks. I have a couple $5 ones for some blogs I wanna keep IP isolated, and was eyeballing a $10 for startup. Good to know.

So you know how they've got those nigh-pornographic art models with the poseable skeletons and all that jazz? Do they make them in non-human? Looking for a mouse or a rat... uh, also non-lewd. I don't need a sexy mouse. Not yet....
Saturday, 27-Mar-21 20:26:28 UTC from web-
@adiwan I dunno, lol. This is really probably just Perfectionism stepping on Productivity's toes. Mostly I just was looking for a reliable way to check if something I would write would be physically plausible. But I've already taken pages of notes on "The Secret of NIMH" and other cartoons and actual live animal footage, so I probably don't *need* anything at all.
-
@thelastgherkin Dude I've seen that before! And it is a good idea... um, in the context of trying to make an anatomical/biomechanical model. heh
-
@scribus I think it's cheaper to buy a real mouse and not bother trying to replicate the skeleton in order to see if a pose is even possible. Yeah... It'd bite back but still cheaper time-wise and financially. I don't think pet shops allow anybody willy-nilly to grab a mouse and contort it.

@tiff It's probably because I stopped paying the company who does it for me, so they fixed it so they could hassle me to pay them again

@ceruleanspark don't give in

@tiff They're like "our free offering only lets you send 10000 messages a month though!"

so maybe a weird question, but is there a term for people who... kind of don't care about their gender identity? like, not gender neutral. i've always been comfortable being a man, and I still am, but as i get older my gender (and to a certain extent my sexual orientation, though my tastes are still pretty geared towards feminine-looking people - but not necessarily exclusively women) is something that matters to me less and less, to the point where, if I weren't so obviously male, i could see myself being pretty tolerant of just about any pronoun anyone wants to call me. gender agnostic?
Tuesday, 23-Mar-21 19:37:12 UTC from web-
@zeldatra there's always agender i guess, i know people who use that term with that kind of sentiment. i feel pretty similarly wrt myself but at the same time changing anything about my identity would just insinuate that i care about it more than i do

Playing Metal Gear Solid again... I bodyslammed Meryl while she was disguised because I recognized her walk cycle and I wanted to see what would happen. Nothing happens, she just sprints into her next cutscene to prevent you from impeding her any further. And then she still claims to have gotten the jump on you.
Tuesday, 23-Mar-21 08:21:12 UTC from web-
@scribus This is why I always enjoyed the mostly-unscripted nature of the later Fallouts & Elder Scrolls. New Vegas particularly introduces you to a major antagonist (or ally, if you choose to go that route...) fairly early on, while you’re on your way to a story quest, and you can just let him do his thing, or, if you have the firepower, you can just FrankerZin shoot him and he won’t appear again for the rest of the game. (And then you can shoot his replacement later, too!)

@ceruleanspark I've just decided to convince Google that I must have a pack of unruly children by searching "poop" followed by "pooop" "pooooooop" and "puup"

@scribus There used to be a browser extension for that.
