@starkatt Seriously! The guy's a genius.

In 2017, Linus Åkesson released "A Mind Is Born", a 256-byte-long Commodore 64 demo with an intense glitch aesthetic. It runs for two minutes and twenty seconds and includes evolving visuals and soundtrack.
It accomplishes this by using several parts of the code to do double or triple duty, contributing patterns to both graphics and sound while partially modifying itself in the process.

Started a batch of #drawings today, but the only one I really tightened up was a Blood Bowl picture!

Third day of "Pristiq" – https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desvenlafaxine – and I'm definitely getting some effects all around. My mood's been pretty good and I've had a little more of the whatever-it-is that lets me want to do the thing and then actually do the thing. (Executive function, I suppose.)
I've also had some trouble sleeping, though. I hope that clears up soon.
fired: referring to me as the gender my features suggest
tired: referring to me as the gender i seem to be presenting as
wired: buy me several coffees and listen intently as i explain my gender for 3 hours
inspired: "im gay," i say. our immaterial eyes meet across an unperceptable manifold of n-dimensional space. digital information pours into organic processors. lifetimes of experiences harmoniously vibrate. 7 ms later, you nod, "same."
hired: you use they/them for me
We are re-federating with https://snouts.online. There has been a misunderstanding and @noiob is sorry that defederating so quickly and with that notice has caused so much harm. Snouts.online and @Ace@snouts.online do not support harassment campaigns.
here's to reconnecting with friends
This seems like a good time for a PSA:
If in the future you see something on a public-facing webpage you want to make a durable record of for use as evidence, don't take a screenshot. Those are -- understandably -- widely considered too easy to fabricate.
Instead, snapshot the page with the Internet Archive. It'll log a timestamped copy of the page to their servers. Highly tamper-resistant.
