This Sunday 1:15 EST at Queerness and Games Conference 2018 I'm going to be giving a talk! It will be called "Making a Programming Language is Surprisingly Easy and Fun" and I will demo creating a scripting language from scratch and adding it to show how easy it can be. There will be streaming but I'm not sure what the URL is yet. https://qgcon.com/qgcon-2018/talks/making-a-programming-language-is-surprisingly-easy-and-fun/
I finished fixing all the code that was calling the SearchDialogDefinition function last night, so ... now I have to go back through each dialog box call, and check the surrounding code for any of the old functions I just replaced, and repoint them properly...
... weh. Tedium. x.x;;
Help Rae the Doe: after a recent comic suggested gamers should support the 250 ppl laid off by Telltale, Olive Brinker (Rae's creator) had to deactivate her account because of the subsequent mass harassment by the GooberGrape movement.
If you can, please support Olive on patreon at https://www.patreon.com/raethedoe. She does amazing work for the trans community and deserves support during this attack.
re: programming, request
Just realizing "Thingy view" is basically a custom character set.
programming, request
Does anybody know of a better free hex editor? I mostly want something stable and easily usable, but also preferably with support for displaying contents using a replacement table (Translhextion calls this feature "Thingy table view", after an old DOS editor called Thingy).
Also, I'm on Windows most of the time, so something that runs on Windows is preferable.
nsfw mention, birdsite mention
I find it incredibly amusing that a bunch of nsfw/furry/tf/etc artists I recognize have been retweeted onto my main Twitter timeline today because of the Peach-Bowser thing >///w///>
I don't follow them on main, even! I just follow a lot of people willing to retweet them, I guess...
legal stuff, ++
It'll cost me $270, plus however much a new ID is? so hopefully I can ask my partners for it, or find some way of getting it otherwise...
legal stuff, ++
I don't have medical insurance or a doctor who can write a letter or fill out forms for me, so ... because they don't require that anymore... I can actually get an ID with my new name, and with "Female" for my gender...
;//w//; 💖 💖 💖
legal stuff, ++
I just filled out / printed my paperwork for getting my name legally changed...
and then I went on the DMV's web site, because I heard there was a form you could fill out for changing your gender marker on your ID, and
"-- DMV: Gender Change --
Your driver's license or ID card will indicate the gender you choose on the application. Medical certification of a gender change is not necessary."
... I literally started crying when I realized what that meant...
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 don't mind if you follow request, but if I don't know or recognize you, please send me a message so I know who you are. #nobot
