Poly trans cuddlefloof programmer and gamedev(?). I love poking around in and reverse engineering old games. I'm also super shy and have horrible anxiety, so ... please be nice...

I wonder, should I bother making a Patreon page? I don't really have any idea what kind of rewards I could offer, and I doubt anybody would pledge except, like, my own partners/roommates... but I would kind of like some way of making money, and job stuff is hard...
Spent all evening looking into why the sprite corruption happens, and... turns out it's possibly caused by an emulator bug! ^^; On actual hardware, sprites are disabled for that frame, so no sprites are shown at all.
A weird bug in Super Off-Road for NES:
For one frame, when you touch the finish line on the final lap, sprite memory is overwritten with garbage. No idea why!

Today I made: gloopy pasta with leftover chicken! (or, Raspberry throws a bunch of things in a pot and sees how they turn out. ^.^;;)
It tastes much better than it probably looks!

finally do I have the proper way of looking at the fediverse 
also yes it's fully functional and I'm actually using it as my main interface right now
mh, ~+?
I always told myself growing up that if I expected I couldn't do something or that things would always go wrong, I would never be disappointed when they didn't go well, and be pleasantly surprised if they did...
though... now things have been bad for so long, and I'm so used to being treated badly, that .... any deviation feels surreal, like something that shouldn't have happened but did...
mh, ~+?
Today feels incredibly strange, like things are just slightly wrong or off somehow...
I think it's because ... people have been being so nice to me, and I almost feel ... happy? It's a feeling that's really alien to me, after being in such terrible situations for years and years...
but... it's made me feel almost slightly dissociative, like I've been watching everything that's happened to me this weekend from somewhere else, instead of actually experiencing it myself...

@Raspberryfloof my favorite GBC tidbit was that the Klax developers had the original Amiga BASIC source but couldn't get their Z80 ASM rewrite of the game logic working quite right
so they built an Amiga BASIC interpreter for GBC and ran the game logic in that

society meta / profession levels (-)
So it is either to pick up stuff at a young age or never do that.
That ultimately leads to stagnation. People just stop learning new things, because they are supposed to be brilliant at it, when starting out.
That also ultimately leads to stop learning at all.
"Why even try if you never get anything from it"
That ultimately leads to people being stuck in puberty forever, because they never learn to interact properly

The notion that you have to have a certain level of profession at a certain age is extremely toxic and just fosters a culture that never goes developing beyond a puberty stage.
If you learn new things, you are of course bad at them.
If you pick up painting with 30, you're not picasso at 30
You need to learn and train to become better, but if you're expected to be a pixasso at 30, there is no room for that.
At some point I should add this to the TCRF page, along with better documentation of this game's debug mode. ^^
I love that the default Emacs scratch buffer text got into Mario Golf (GBC) somehow. I wonder if this was a mis-copy-and-paste from a developer, or if it was another case of a compiler taking random memory contents and using them for padding in the ROM...
The one thing I am most sad about on Masto is that sometimes there are amazing people on an instance that Awoo doesn't federate with, and I feel really sad when I see "This person is great" messages but have no idea who they are talking about because I can't see them...
But... Awoo's whitelist system does so much to keep awful instances or users away, and I wouldn't ever get rid of it.

There was a Neo-Geo AES system for sale at my local video game store today... *_*
It cost $300... *_*
I wish I had enough disposable cash for it... *_* I would love to own a Neo-Geo home system... *_*
I think what I miss most about university is having a large, quiet, well-stocked library I could relax and work at. There aren't enough quiet places that are open late, like uni buildings are for students...
programming, ~
I've seen so many programmers or CS graduates talking about weird things you can do that they seem so excited about, or particularly interesting obfuscated and esoteric code that they wrote, but I just see them like curiosities that probably won't be useful outside of some niche. Why write a strange obfuscated algorithm for something when you could have written it cleanly and neatly, but still have it work exactly like your obtuse code...?
programming, ~
I wonder if I even belong in a programming job...
I never really cared about programming for its own sake, or for any of the weird things you can do just for the sake of doing them. I just want to build interesting things, like fun games or useful applications...
