Every time I re-watch and see the episode where Rory gets a blue G3 , I feel so much envy but also joy.

Imagine getting a computer as a gift? And that one to boot? I would have screamed haha yaaaasssssss. That's amazing!

But one day about 7 years after cool coloured iBooks had come and gone, I found a nice tangerine iBook on eBay, and have loved every second of its use since for writing, some graphics, and listening to CDs. Such a cool gorgeous !

Remembering and one of the many memories. 😭🕯

We're all an emergence of stars in the cosmos. Attacking us is a ridiculous useless stupidity. It's like kicking the side of a mountain while the planet's plates and volcanoes keep producing more, or spooning the pacific ocean into a coffee mug only to have it evaporate and rain back down.

Diversity is a property of all Life. human beings are born every day. We are not...going...anywhere!!!

The Drake Cutter is my new favourite small-sized ship. It's like the big Jeep Wrangler of space. :D

It's super interesting inside and out, and is a feast on the senses with all the moving switches, buttons, sounds and other fun role-play elements like a bathroom, bed, reading light, storage, closet and cargo bay.

And best of all? It can carry a Nox! The funnest bucking hover-horse in the game XD.

3 years ago I volunteered to create a new edition of Ethan Winer’s 1990s BASIC programming book using LibreOffice (@libreoffice). Over the span of a year, with Ethan’s editorial input, I rebuilt the book layout from TXT sources in , and recreated all diagrams from scratch using , and . It turned out great!

Dev1: so our zombs will find the shortest path possible or the weakest with some randomness
Dev2: what if a person can't be reached?
Dev1: Eh?
Dev2: I mean climb a mountain or dig a super deep hole, or dig a super deep hole at the top of a mountain.
Dev1: Nobody would...what?🧵

This is my favourite ice cream. I like it because it has these little chunks of chocolate in it.

Sorry, I mean full-diameter SHARDS OF SUCCULENCE! XD

I bought the new remasters of GnR Illusions since I enjoyed the originals so much in the 1990s but had lost those copies over the decades.

And they sound terrible lol. Modern loudness compressed, mid range is boosted so high my teeth hurt, and November Rain got wrecked:

Piano is quieter, strings are louder, the thunder clap is muted to almost background atmosphere, the last bass drum kick on the signature drum roll is muted. It has no cinematic narrative punch anymore.

The Case Against by Hoffman is a wonderful read. If you’d like to learn more about biological consciousness, models of adaptation, and challenge all your preconceived notions about the of the “visible” universe as a consciousness emerged from evolution, this is a thrill ride!

Currently in a section about how our brain compresses information for adapted responses.

I mean, you can't rely on streaming anyway. Licenses come and go and I have mixtapes that aren't even a year old that feature tracks that already have expired licenses on streaming platforms.

Thank god I bought everything for offline playback at the time!

Trying to buy and own music in 2022 (for mixtapes) is a pain in the ass anymore. Curse you streaming!

I lamented the effort required to a friend tonight...

"I'm moving the payload!", shouted Mercy as she helped me organize my home for a LAN gaming day. <3

I invited a friend and his kid over to play Destiny together on all our computers.

This is the game that was the most interesting to the kid.

(As it should be!)
