i've basically just given up at this point trying to manage the cables at my studio. safety hazard? yes, but it's a risk I'm willing to take to be lazy

hyprland is working pretty well. because i didn't want to setup a bar today i'm bar-less and kinda enjoying it. no distractions

"Grandma" (and "Grandma (Destruction)") from Nier is one of the greatest songs ever created and no one can argue that

honestly after installing Aerospace I could see myself using macos full time. is it as good as Qtile? of course not, but it makes the os far more tolerable

i've said it before and i'll say it again, 1.19 was the last good MC update

once my setup is completely setup again and i can properly power my usb switch either externally or through the Mac, this is easily going to be the main recording machine. it's the perfect machine to keep around mics

i'm only using a 5600x on my main machine but the fact the M4 Mac Mini can do CPU rendering faster (at least for what i'm using it for ) is still quite impressive. All without making any noise

M4 Mini set up and running, main PC is freshened up and now on Arco... No problems getting everything working again either, surprisingly

doing non-dev freelance work but knowing web dev means sometimes i wake up going, "maybe i should make my own storefront for my work" knowing damn well it's too much work (still going to do it)

moving from Spotify to Tidal was such a good idea. i can finally listen to a high quality version of Kelas (Lets-Dance) from the Full Metal Alchemist movie Conquerer of Shamballa

god why does the Scarlett Solo's (at least 3rd gen) output sound SO good? at this point i'm just going to keep both my SSL2 and Solo plugged in and just use the Solo as a DAC

it being 9 degrees (-12c) is pretty sick dude

my life has been forever changed after learning about Pete & Bas

Maybe I should just run Genshin all night to heat this room up

"expected delivery by 9pm" and you expect me to be able to do literally anything today???

with either them changing their TOS, going out of business, breaking user trust with AI or something equally stupid, etc. I like having as much control over my own content as possible.

This is me holding myself accountable but by the end of 2025 I want to not only be producing enough NSFW content to need this but to also be running an NSFW site where you can buy/sub to my content.

I really don't like the current options, especially Patreon, and there's too many potential problems

customizing my setup in various ways than I have in some single player games. But it's very difficult to have healthy discussions on what is, at the end of the day, a tool when most people you'll find on the internet don't treat it like one.

That's why there's always going to be a disconnect with a lot of Linux users, especially younger ones. It's far more of a hobby and obsession than an appliance used for work. Any criticism of it is criticism towards something they're deeply invested in. Which I get, I've spent as much time--

just to make all of that easier to do and easier to manage. And that's just the start, I wanted to get some front ends up and running for some of this stuff too.

It's funny to me that my online presence is/was mostly about Vtubers and specifically the backend of Vtubers. Managing, content production, community management, etc. But lately all I've been doing writing python scripts, writing giant documents, and updating my existing organizational tools

playing genshin because it's fun: ❌
playing genshin because the room is cold: ✅

I hate feature creep, dude. There's no reason to implement AI into DDG other than everyone else is doing it. From what I've seen there isn't a whole lot of overlap between privacy-oriented people and AI

hoyo NEEDS to release the name of the Xilonen theme singer it's not even funny how bad i need to hear her other work

despite being a professionally trained designer, I don't want to sit here and go through config files and set colorschemes, nor do I want to make colorschemes myself for my desktop. having something that just...does that? amazing

i started using PyWal and now i finally understand why people were using PyWal and i'm kinda mad that I wasn't doing this before

you don't even have jasmine vibes, what were they on about

But also I dunno if I wanna do that and what would be faster, making a short VN or faking the VN aesthetic in Davinci

Now that I actually have the space to think about creative stuff, I really wanna get back to making that one experimental ASMR that works like a visual novel.

I wanted to actually make it in RenPy and basically just record all the dialogue + record the gameplay for the video

everyone hits a point in their life when they wanna start a blog/podcast but i dunno if i'm old enough to do that yet 🚬
