I remember finding them through OCRemix around 2013, and I still love this style of music just as I did then

So about that game engine... The framework makes the game work

I wrote a blog post about a long-running project I've had to build a game engine in Typescript. Have a look: deadcomputersociety.com/blog/game-en...

I recommend the 4-12 schedule. I did that a few years ago, and it was nice not having anyone bothering me from midnight to 4am. That's when I got my best work done.

One more thing, I think this is also part of the reason that I've had a harder time searching for things on Google, because the same techniques that used to work back in the 2010s are useless now with their algorithm serving me that it _thinks_ I want to see, and many websites abusing SEO.

I've certainly noticed how the internet has changed since I started using it fully in the early 2010s, particularly around how instead of looking for content, the content tends to look for me through algorithms designed to drive engagement and keep me scrolling. It's awful.

Emulating Mac OSX 10.2 using QEMU on linux

I've successfully emulated that old PowerPC mac using QEMU. The process ended up being relatively straightforward. Now to defeat the activation process of that old publishing software

If you really do need more, a local thrift store might appreciate you taking some off of their hands

I did some data recovery from this old mac recently. That desktop sure was a blast from the past! Now comes the fun part of getting 20-year-old publishing software to work.

20,000 bookmarks in my Google Chrome sync profile

20,000 bookmarks in my Google Chrome sync profile

For a time, I had a habit of bookmarking anything I found remotely interesting online. This was done in a Google Chrome profile that I've been using for at least the past decade. Maybe this is why they disabled syncing with Chromium. Hi, it's me, I'm the problem

Initial commit.

Hello, I'm now on Bluesky. I don't know how often I'll post here, but there may be some interesting things to show off here at some point.

Until then, cheers!
