Hi I guess I have a Patreon now???

It's at patreon.com/raspberryfloof, and I'll put things like Ita2 updates there early before I post them anywhere else, along with music or any other things I make o.o

I don't have anything up yet but I'll do a writeup of some interesting things I've been running into while working on Ita2 the past few weeks by tomorrow! and I know it's the end of the month so it's totally okay if you wait until after January 1 so you don't get charged for one day of posts o.o

silly, tf-related I guess 

<me> I wish I knew why my skin has been so dry and scaly lately...

<me, 2 seconds later> obviously, I must be being unwittingly TFed into a dragon...

Another Ita2 tidbit:

There's a bit of unreferenced text near one routine that handles venture cards #61 and #62, which give stock dividends of 10%/20% normally. At first glance, though, this text seems like it would just print garbage tiles on screen...

It turns out this extra text is old enough that it expects a lowercase English font, which isn't in the final game anymore... and it also suggests you originally got paid a flat amount per stock share you owned instead!

Dr. Mario, on my parents' half-broken NES. Sometimes Mario threw viruses into the bottle instead of pills... >.>;;;

On the Edge team, we had a *whole team* dedicated to finding compat bugs, reducing them, and reaching out to site owners with fixes. Sometimes we would reach out to a site owner and they'd say, "Sorry, you don't have enough market share for us to bother fixing this bug."

This is where we get -webkit prefixed CSS in the standard, as well as de-facto standards and "works best in Chrome." This is why both Opera and Edge switched to Chromium.

If you really want to help Firefox succeed, file a bug on webcompat.com/ when you find a broken website. Don't just switch back to Chrome; let Mozilla know there's a problem so they can try to fix it.

When browsers lose market share, they fall into the "compatibility death spiral." Sites don't bother to test, they break, and users flee to the browser that "just works." Mozilla is fighting this battle every day, and it just got harder.

weh... I wish I could draw anything better than stick figures .w.;;;

Itadaki Street 2 tidbit:

The Maharaja (bonus AI character who pays you if he lands on your shop) has his starting cash set to 0x7FFF7FFF (2,147,450,879 G). The game never deducts any of what he pays from his cash total, though, so he effectively has infinite cash. .w.

Some trans people are men. Some are women. Some are neither.

Some trans people have known since they were kids. Some figured it out in their 80s.

Some trans people have been on hormone replacement therapy for years. Some can't get on HRT. Some don't want to be on HRT.

Some trans people try to "pass". Some don't.

Some trans people have had surgery. Some don't want surgery. Some can't get surgery.

All trans people are valid, regardless of any of the above. :trans_heart:

I do not understand how both programs I wrote for tonight's AoC2018 puzzle compiled properly first try and also worked correctly first try .-.

My code is usually buggy and doesn't work?? and it hasn't been very much anymore????

the pansexual equivalent of "gold star lesbian" is having sex with at least one person of every single existing gender

it has been postulated that this feat is theoretically impossible, and this was proven in 1972 by a team of mathematicians who all later were awarded the field's medal for their work

okay, after FINALLY getting this code to work, after several hours' worth of debugging, and finding out that the original game's code makes an assumption that doesn't hold anymore with how my code works...

I can finally, finally insert new venture card text.

It was a long day. but finally, I have obtained a license to be A. Fox ^w^

If you record a VHS tape onto a DVD...
