@Zhorken ooh! mawile is really high here!

i also see maractus and cinccino. less common, but both Very Good

(~) Kinks / Catch 22 

@ulvra i think this happens because you put more value in your friends' thoughts, so saying things that might make them uncomfortable can make you pretty skittish

basically, it's hard to tell if they're avoiding your kink because it makes them uncomfortable unless they bring it up first

with a rando, there's no reason to stay in conversations about things they don't like--also, when talking about a kink you don't have with a friend, there's no pressure to continue either

it's 2:20 am, and *of course* i wanna write a roguelike in lisp right this second

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...

@Raspberryfloof ahahahahah, what the heck??

i'm definitely leaning more towards your RAM theory now though

i mean, if i knew my compiler did that, i would sandbox it so hard! i wonder how much sensitive information has been inadvertently distributed like this?

@Raspberryfloof hee, oh gosh

grabbing random bits of ram in compilation seems hellua-insecure

then again, the only other way i could think of this going down is maybe a developer used the scratch buffer as a scratchpad, and saved it as a file?

@ctrlaltdog@chitter.xyz oh, no worries!

i can't actually do right now since it's past midnight here

@ctrlaltdog@chitter.xyz honestly, that's something nobody should assume anyway

it's not really obvious if you haven't done it before

overthinking 

@ctrlaltdog@chitter.xyz oh! the way i usually do that is to say something like "i figured it out! you just <answer>" and mark that as the answer

@ctrlaltdog@chitter.xyz i'd be up for this later if you are! (i mean league, i know that rotation is long gone now)

proton/steam play troubles 

@ctrlaltdog@chitter.xyz oh, no worries!

i know that things can get pretty confusing at first when digging below the interface of a new system--i think you can do it, though!

good luck, @ctrlaltdog@chitter.xyz..!

proton/steam play troubles 

@ctrlaltdog@chitter.xyz oh! you can define that by prefixing your command like 'PROTON_VETSION="3.7 Beta" protontricks (whatever args you give it normally)'

you can also make that variable stick around until you close your shell by typing: export PROTON_VETSION="3.7 Beta"

i don't know if that's the right thing to set it to, but that's how you'd do it

proton/steam play troubles 

@ctrlaltdog@chitter.xyz i guess setting the environment variable isn't enough?

hmm, maybe seeing where it's pulling the original directory from might give some hints?

if protontricks is a script, try just opening it with a text editor and seeing if it's hardcoded, or what environment variable it needs

if it's a binary maybe "strace protontricks (your args) 2>&1 | grep 3.7 -B2 -A2" might spit out something meaningful?

@ctrlaltdog@chitter.xyz splatoon dreams are fun! but it's probably a bad sign when you get bodied in your own mind

proton/steam play troubles 

@ctrlaltdog@chitter.xyz maybe setting your launch parameters as 'PROTON_VETSION="3.7 Beta" %command%' might help?

and if not, maybe you can symlink the bin folder from beta into the other one? (ln -s /path/to/bin /path/to/3.7)

you can drag and drop files and folders onto your terminal, so you don't need to type those paths out

@ctrlaltdog@chitter.xyz ohhh! nice rank x power!

(and you know what? i should play some splatoon soon too)

introspective (~) 

i actually already knew that, but i decided somewhere along the way that mentioning things that might not ever get completed was just setting others up for disappointment

but on the flipside, seeing interest in things i do is motivation, and having it out there is more motivation on top of that!

hm, maybe come new year, i'll have to shake things up a bit!

introspective (~) 

it's kinda strange how i use masto like a staging area for thoughts

i felt like i kinda painted myself into a corner with most of my social media where i don't do anything except post stuff that i spent a lot of effort on

but i'm noticing that it seems like the idle thoughts along the way are far more interesting than just having a general "list of things i've done"

metakink thing 

@Draekos real talk though

i find that knowing peeps who like a thing normalizes it for me

i mean, there's a lot of things that just aren't for me! but the list of things that actually bother me has gotten really small, and mostly stems from my being icked by dirty things

metakink thing 

@Draekos humiliation--the gateway kink
