@noiob oh! a lot has happened since then! three sets of games, in fact

the easiest ones to find right now are probably "gates to infinity" and "super mystery dungeon"

gates is the earlier of the two, and has a really satisfying story

also super mystery dungeon has the continents of all the previous games as places you can visit, and makes quite a few references to previous games (nothing story-significant though)

of the DS games, "explorers of sky" has everything the others do, and tons more

@noiob aaahh! they're so good!

i love these games so much!

@Kistaro yep! it's still going strong here too

it's interesting to see how far i can push my resources without leaving the apartment though

@HTHR@cybre.space there's no way for him not to be!

if he wasn't, sailor moon would still be sans undertale

i wanted to draw a location in pokemon super mystery dungeon, and was going to use the actual game as a reference

so i started it up and discovered i was at a story segment completely isolated from the place i wanted to look at

this is an extremely good excuse to play some mystery dungeon, and i'm definitely taking it!

@bombsfall@mastodon.social happy birthday, @bombsfall@mastodon.social! (and good night!)

self-aware double standards 

i think my biggest fear is not being worth the mental energy of others

but that's not something i try to solicit to begin with--except in a few cases where i've convinced myself that it's absolutely worth it

i mean, it does make my twitter extremely browsable, but it also feels like i'm basically treating myself like a brand, which is ahahaha not good

that's less true here--which is freeing! but there are still a few places where i've decided i'm likely not welcome

self-aware double standards 

*sees one of those positive messages directed at everyone*

my brain: oh yeah! this really does apply to everyone... except for me, of course!

hee, nice try, brain

maybe my resolution for next year should be to get out there as much as possible to counteract my self-exclusionary thoughts?

getting anxious over nothing is the last thing i need, and i think getting some proof that it's all unfounded might be just what i need

Infinity War spoilers 

@KommaChameleon i totally didn't expect it either

i'm glad they went through with it though, because a deus ex machina would have felt so cheap after all of that

i wonder what this means for future marvel things though?

@99CentSoftness if they barked behind each other, at least there would be a chance for tail call optimization

@Zhorken same, honestly

i like how low commitment things are here though! especially if you're just talking to someone on the local timeline

i find because of that, i actually say a lot more here than i do on the tweeters

i only started recording the data because the values embedded on google don't show up anywhere on the source page, so I kinda gotta keep track of it myself

i love how I can basically just hack something like this out in tasker when i need to, though! (maybe i should use it more often?)

because of the local miasma, I made a thing to track it, and send me warnings when i'm out of the house and it gets worse than 100

@chao hopefully some of these can help you sidestep some frustrations with your system locking up

but for reals, good luck with haskell, @chao..!

tech 

@chao no prob..! ^^

another thing you can do if there is even a *little* bit of responsiveness from your desktop is type "pkill -9 ghc" into the thing that pops up when you hit Alt + F2 on most desktops

tech 

@chao ahh! in cases like that, you might still be able to Alt + Sys Req + R to get your desktop to let go of your keyboard

and then mashing Ctrl + Alt + Shift + F1 might get you to a virtual terminal where you can log in and type "pkill ghc"

afterwards, you can Alt + F7 to get back to your desktop

tech 

@chao oh nooo

i guess mashing ctrl+c or the ctrl+z "kill -9 %1" combos didn't work?

if this becomes A Thing, maybe you can try to limit the resources for it? like maybe running "ulimit -Sv 500000" before haskell to limit the stack to 500MB might get you past it growing out of control?
