i sketched a bunny who just CAN'T BELIEVE i didn't post them here

@ctrlaltdog@chitter.xyz how is rocksmith for learning guitar agility anyway..?

i've thought of picking it up a few times

no context programming 

@noiob gosh, i know that php module management has probably improved since i last looked at it, but this still feels cursed

@shaderphantom gosh, i feel this

i hope you can take all the time you need to feel less burnt out--and without feeling too bad about resting

good luck..! ^^

Veiled misogyny in speedrunning 

@trysdyn i know someone who was pretty uncomfortable with the speedrunning community as a whole because of how male-centric it is, but also really loves that this event is happening

it sounds like speedrunning might even be something she might want to try now!

...

i know that wasn't about misogynistic dudebros, but i just wanted to throw that out there because it's kind of heartwarming, and i think we need a little more of that when people act like this :s

@EeveeEuphoria all chus are important~

but pichu are legit the pokemon that originally got me over my awkward tween-self to finally admit that i might actually like cute things

gosh, that was a turning point

@ctrlaltdog@chitter.xyz oh yeah! i think anything that feels oily or sticky in general kinda does that for me!

ngl, i wash my hands a lot when most finger food is around ^^'

i think it would be really cool to finally be able to articulate myself outside of small chats

hee, it's such a tease. i'll get there though..!

i honestly think i need to start keeping point form notes for myself, *of* myself

is it weird to have a trillion writing ideas swimming around your head, but also having them all evaporate the second you actually sit down in front of a screen?

it's weird how i almost never get frustrated with things i'm trying

when faced with something that seems basically impossible initially, i just get progressively more and more excited the closer i get to doing it

oh yeah! i guess i should mention this is for wsl_proxy!

it's a thing i'm making that lets you use wsl command line tools as if they were windows programs

always happy to come across another situation that's "not such a big deal because it's simply a contrived problem which you'll likely never encounter."

(from superuser.com/a/962805/149426)

it's unfortunate that i'm relying on base64 existing in any wsl that this is used in, but i guess i'm already relying on bash as it is anyway, soooo....

Show thread

i did figure out a way to do it though! and that way is very bad, hee

i base64 the whole command line, and run it in a subshell, because that doesn't require any double-quotes or escaping magic cmd-side

Show thread

i even wrote a C# program to use its built-in argument parsing, so *it* could figure out passing that as a single argument to wsl bash

it couldn't do it either

Show thread

TIL escaping things for cmd.exe is sometimes impossible

like, if you have a file:

C:\folder with spaces (And parens)\fancy!!! chars'`@;,[]{}().txt

the only way to get that escaped as a subshell in bash is like:

cat "$(wslpath $'C:\\folder with spaces (And parens)\\fancy!!! chars\'`@;,[]{}().txt')"

and i'm trying to write something that will throw this into bash.exe -ic, but how the heck do you escape it?

backslashes won't do it, carets don't do it

looking it up, turns out you can't??

@ctrlaltdog@chitter.xyz it was nice to see you around..!

smash bros 

@codl you can never have too many playable pokemon

this is true outside of smash too
