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...?

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...

I'm glad I documented what I was doing last here, because I hadn't marked down what needed changing anywhere else...

I'm exhausted today already, but I will try working on this later...

Kind of wish I lived someplace where there were cool people around to meet up with or interesting places to go or fun events happening...

I feel really lonely and tired...

"Then... he pays /you/ thirty-five dollars a day to tell him to work faster!"

I've found it increasingly hard to focus on anything at all, and have had awful headaches on days when things are especially bad...

It hasn't been that I haven't wanted to work on anything, just that it is actually impossible for me when I feel this way...

I'm bored, so I think I will ... maybe stream an old video game for a while...

It's been a long time since I've streamed.

Music mood: ♪ Magic Shop of Raspberry, an unused track from Lotus Land Story (Touhou 4) included in Mystic Square's (Touhou 5's) music room.

We're having a sunshower-thunderstorm right now...

A sunderstorm...

I still haven't worked any on IS2 since two weeks ago...

I don't know if I will for a while, either, since I'll be away from things for a few weeks soon...

I feel really awful tonight... I don't know what I can do about it...
