forgive my fiery language, but we've enslaved the products of our labor to
serve only the interests of those who covet them. Like dragons mounting a pile
of gold and proclaiming it their own, even though the dwarves mined it, they
smelted it from ore, they minted it, and they traded it afar... And the dragon
covets, because it's much easier to steal a pile of gold and hoard it than to
build beautiful halls of mountain kings in the depths below the earth.
... sorry, anyway you're totally right, it's abhorrent that we'd be forced to
hide the bounty of human technological progress because someone, somewhere
wanted to make profit off of a 20 year old handheld. Somehow.
Or perhaps they're interested in the principle of the thing, that we should
respect their sovereignty over the intellectual marvels they claim to have
created. When really the engineers are given nothing but wages......
And to that I say, I rebel against you.
(I don't know anything about GBA SP retro-modding, I'm just rhetoric)

gotta agree, random reddit commenter I found in the messages I sent to my
boyfriend when we first started dating which I came upon because I'm
doomscrolling through our early love during a sorta fight that we might be
having but I'm not sure because he's too burnt out to talk to me and it's
tearing me up inside but I don't know what to do about it because if I message
him he'll ignore me which probably means it hurts him to think about me which
honestly is not a good feeling but frankly I don't know what else to do because
I love and cherish him and the thought that he might hate me fills me with
despair
I also love Supreme Commander and think that there has never been a better Real
Time Strategy game, at least not yet, in the year 2024

Hell yeah. I can't help but wonder if there's a more universal solution on the

these purpose-built PCBs applied toward historical preservation and utilization
of forward thinking retro gaming technology fills my heart with joy.

I'm 29, and I had Pokemon Silver growing up. However I bought it used, and the
battery was worn out or something because it wouldn't save! But still I played
that single game for months on my gameboy color, trying to see how far I could
get. I had a level 40+ Totodile (or was it Crocanaw? I forget) and
unfortunately one day I took it on a 30 minute car ride, expecting the battery
to last at least 30 minutes, but unbeknownst to my child self there was
construction on the way, which turned it into a 4+ hour drive. I couldn't
believe it! The battery died, and I lost my save file... I was heartbroken. T.T
Next time I played, I learned a lot. I actually read some of the dialogue text,
and learned you could use pokeballs to capture pokemon
I was so dumb I was using a single character to get through the game. What a
n00b.
Anyway when my mom heard about my tribulations she bought me Pokemon Gold,
which I played quite a bit less. I was focused on other things you see, like
Dragon Warrior Three. Alas.

whoa cool 🤩
Dragon Warrior was the first game I ever played. When I was ~5 years old or so,
my mother bought a gameboy color for me with two games before we went on a
plane ride. I don't even remember where we were going, but the fact that she
knew that a portable video game console with two games (Dragon Warrior 1&2,
and Super Mario Bros Deluxe) would shut my autistic ADHD ass up enough to be
respectable on an airplane makes me realize how much she saw me. Thank you,
mom, I love you
Anyway I was the eldest "brother" (I'm trans lmao jokes on you, family in the
past) so if anyone deleted my save I would kick their ass :D
It still happened once or twice and I did not, in fact, kick their asses,
though I wanted to. Shame. Missed opportunities I guess
Though to be fair it's not like anyone in my family ever expressed the
slightest interest in anything I was into. Not like they'd want to play games
because it was something they wanted, oh no - they would only do it to be close
to me. Whatever >.>

utilize it in a way that it wasn't intended. And I want to save every

Telluride is so cool! I went snowboarding there once, it was an awesome
experience. I was in middle school I think, and my best friend's dad was
driving. There was a blizzard going on and we counted several cars that had
slid off the road - mostly pickup-trucks that were shiny and big and new - the
kind that would hang plastic ballsacks from their rear bumper because they were
"cool" or whatever. Anyway we got a kick out of laughing at them. Looking back
I kinda feel like we were a little heartless, and that we should have stopped,
but we didn't see any people waving us down so I'm assuming that they had
already been helped. I hope.
Anyway we can use IRC if you'd like, it seems to be what you're used to so I'm
into it. :D
And before you ask, yes, I'd like to chat with you. I'll try and make a habit
of logging on because it's important to validate your friends, especially when
they're as cute and talented as you seem to be. ^_^
I hope my BF is doing alright, he tends to hide when feeling bad

I realized the reason it's so difficult for me to get into a new video game is
because my perfect game existed at one point, but no longer, and all else pales
in comparison.
The make-believe games of children are without equal. They represent our inner
truth and desires, cast upon the canvas of our experience through the outputs
of imagination and physical exertion.
I'd spend my time as a child wandering through the forest with a stick in hand,
climbing on things and exploring. I grew up in Wyoming, and the forests there
look like this:

I only ever do cannabis, but when I do my kooky-dook levels go off the charts.
People say it's difficult to converse with me, so your concerns are probably
valid. Though it's less because I'm not present, and more because I'm too
present - I feel like I understand the totality of all things, which honestly
is the only rational way that I could ever be convinced to consume
mind-altering substances hehe - like "oh wow I see new colors" who gives a f
but the moment someone says "yeah but you'll 'get' spacetime and morality" my
ears suddenly perk up
... anyway people say it's hard to talk to me because I'm too galaxy brained in
that state I can't relate to normal humans. See all the psycherwauls on my
profile... >.>
anyway in an hour or so I'll let you know what's up. "good news" or "bad

reference to debug why mine isn't working. "oh probably because I didn't do
this part here"
also, bad news. Guess I'm doing C programming. What should I make? I'm thinking
Tic Tac Toe or maybe a really basic Asteroids or something

primary conversation spaces in social media should be no larger than the size
of a conversation.
A few years ago I heard that humans can only really keep track of about 5
things before they need symbols to keep track of them. Maybe it was 7, or maybe
11, I'm not sure - the exact count eludes me.
But another thing I heard was that we can generally keep track of around 70
people in our lives - beyond that it's hard to remember specifics. And yet our
social media sites gives us friends for life, because honestly who's going to
kick someone off their friend list?
At least, that's how it feels coming from a social background of games. In
Runescape you'd add someone if they were cool, and completely forget about
them. Sometimes you'd be out wandering in the world and you'd actually run into
them, and that was just like... the coolest thing.
When I played later games like CoV and WoW everything was more instanced. But
their chat system was superior, and you could more easily keep chats with
friends ongoing.

this is the project I was referring to, I think. Can't see how to host on their
website so maybe I was wrong - it might need a bit more configuration than I
made it seem.
that's the way WoW private hosting is, like you gotta compile the project and
stuff.
did you know that every time you include a library in a project you're
necessarily including all of the functionality that they have access to? Well,
all that which you import. But once a function has been written for a
functionality then there's no reason to write it again. Unless you're
refactoring of course.
phew, sounds like a lot of spaghetti - YEAH IT IS. Spaghetti is fucking
awesome, it's DELICIOUS OMG ahem I mean if you have collective seminars where
you discuss the functionality that's relevant to certain parts that you and
your team are working on, you can more easily be adept at applying them.
phew, sounds like a lot of thinking, not enough writing. Well, write then!
Ideas are more spark when currently writing. : ) : )

I'd do the same thing when I was on Reddit. Except, backwards - I'd argue with
American conservatives (nobody more extreme than that) politely and kindly,
using logic and empathy. I'd cite their sacred documents like the bible, the
constitution, or even just the founding fathers.
I don't know if I ever changed any minds, but I represented my ideas as
honestly and clearly as I could. I can't help but hope that some people saw
them and considered them. Sometimes all it takes is a push, and they'll start
thinking on their own. Like a thought that doesn't go away, they can't quite
forget how they couldn't find the lie in what you spoke.
Or maybe I wanted to believe my actions had value. Post-hoc justification. Who
can say. At least my intentions were honest.

the future is what we make of it. it happens both slower and faster than

when I yearn for the future, I find myself drawn to the past - the natural
world around me inspires me in ways that my computer never could. Just as my
computer inspires me in ways that a tree, a brook, a cloud alight might not.
though the future may be terrifying, we're here for it together. And nothing
has changed in our humanity, save for our slight addiction to social media.
frankly I'd take social media over leaded gasoline any day!

I knocked, spoke aloud several times, poked my head in, and slowly and

kitchen floor, which was weird, and their oven/stove was off, which is good. I
spent less than 30 seconds in there, and then I waited out front for ~15
minutes. I also asked the neighbors and notified maintenance, who came over and
shut the door. That's all I know. I hope they're okay.

it assigns nation-state affiliation to essentially chance. Reducing it's
relevance and dominance over our lives. it's an anarchist perspective to attack
the power that a structure has over us.
I can't help but picture a world where the boundaries of our nations shifted
under us like the wavering paths carved by a river. Or even better, the paths
of migratory birds.
"yeah during the summer months I live in canada, but during the winter it's
more croatian"
it's arbitrary
it's pointless
kind of fun to think about, but like... we're all just people, living here on
the face of a rock in space. our surface is dimpled by frequent impacts, some
that threatened our ancient biological ancestors. and yet we persist, because
life cannot be extinguished. It is part of our earth, there's no thing that is
separate from it. We are it's foremost expression.

cob, but there's no difference between me and my friend. so

I call myself a patriot because I believe in the soul of the land of my
birthplace and my home. A land that should be tended to by the people who live
atop it. And as a government, or a corporation, is a steward of the people, so
too must it care for the land.
hence, national parks
though the stated reason was a bit of a lie, the spirits of the land (like me)
believe that life is a gift from me to thee. so take care of us please?
hence, why me, as a human, do tend to the world around me. by feeding ducks, by
fostering trust, and sharing my heart and my perspective.
it's good that we have trees, they allow us to breathe. it's good that we have
our labour, and it's good that we can learn how to weave.
... sorry lost the train of thought there at the end :3
anyway borders are philosophically pointless, but they hold real meaning over
our lives. We don't live in the world I described, and unfortunately I can't

if you want to share a post without the "fedi algorithm" (as in, the machine
learning bots who scrape the open web) then share something that's simple and
benign but located close to your desired message. Include a symbol or something
for your followers that means "go here and poke around a bit, you'll find what
I'm pointing at"
alternatively, for a different effect, you can boost things that are saying the
words you want to say but in a different context. Like someone posts something
that says "wow so cool" in like a judgey way but you boost it in response to
something someone else said but like in a "dude that's radical" kinda way

anhedonia perhaps? the difficulty of identifying or feeling emotions? (emojis

you shouldn't overexpose yourself to things regularly. Think of it like you're
slowly adjusting your body to a poison - you need to start out slowly to build
up a tolerance. In the same way if things make your heart hurt then you
shouldn't expose yourself to too many of them all at once - face the darkness
you find, but only enough to contrast with your bright.

my boyfriend gets like, 2 social spoons to spend per day. He usually uses them
on work because meetings and such.
On the other hand, I'm excitable and passionate. I'm constantly driven to share
things I find or think about. If you go on a walk with me without my mask I'll
spend the whole time showing you pretty pieces of moss and stones.
I usually message him once or twice per day. If the first one isn't responded
then maybe he just wasn't interested in the thing I showed him - the second
time he's probably burnt out.
It fucking hurts.

I dunno, from my perspective it's less about whether or not they're "unwitting"
specifically and more like "lesser of two evils" - many of the republican
people I knew in the past who were my age were utterly and absolutely convinced
that if we didn't defend our homeland, somebody would come and kill us for it.
It didn't really matter who that other was, they were convinced that someone
would do it. So they supported the military and opposed loosening restrictions
on immigration (instead preferring tighter restrictions, but more quantity. As
in, "let in more people but only if we KNOW they're cool")
I can't help but wonder if people join the military for the same reasons. Like
standing atop the wall that divides "us" from "them", they put their backs to
those they love and trust and face out toward whatever may come.
The military is a very diverse place. I know a lot of other people do it just
because it seems like a good, honest job.

the sharper you are in your beliefs the deeper your passion may cut. Those
judgemental purists can be useful, just as the more flexible and compassionate
people can be. "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" kinda deal... So if you
meet one, point them at their foes [your foes] and say "I'll handle the rest,
I'll get everyone on board, you're right that we aren't 'pure' as you say, but
with time perhaps we'll learn from each other"
two allies is better than one is better than none.

if someone does not consent to helping you bear their emotional burdens, but
you insist anyway... that seems to be the narcissism you mentioned
if someone does consent, then they're helping a friend. Or they're being a
therapist for them.
sometimes we can't help but be overcome by emotions. In those moments I find
it's usually best to retreat to a safe space and hide out for a bit until the
storm passes, then maybe return to the world a bit more fatigued but less...
spicy.
those moments show that you need more emotional support, both from yourself and
from others. If the people in your life cannot help you, and you cannot help
yourself... then yeah you're probably gonna hurt people around you. Plan as
such and figure out how to still be a good person, it's up to each of us to do
it in our own way.

my guess is it's a product of the neuro-muscular capabilities we developed when
sneaking through the underbrush or the balance gained from balancing on fallen
tree trunks.
that mixed with all the practice we have carrying cups in our childhood that we
don't even remember. Children are prone to spilling mugs, but if they do it
enough eventually they'll get tired of being wet. So their neural pathways
align, and before you know it they can balance it on their noses if they'd
like. Though it hardly ever gets that far teehee, usually it's just enough to
be, in the dark, with a warm cup of tea.

commonly content-warning'd are also commonly content-filtered by people who
tend to be the biggest beneficiaries of healthily designed content-warnings. so
putting keywords in there that filter out people who don't want to see intense
or damaging things to their psyche can avoid it more easily.

it suddenly became relevant in your life for a different reason and you wanted
to share it again to see if anyone wanted to talk about it so you could explain
your feelings and see perspective from someone who's maybe approaching the same
or similar thing from a slightly different angle?

like, an old post of yours is suddenly interesting again. and you want to share
it, so you boost your own post. "self-boosting", as you described it

![mathematical graph showing several results plotted on a two dimensional field/plain. there are two types of patterns shown to be occurring with a simple algorithm (pattern for application of numbers toward a pre-defined desired result [approach]) see second picture for equations the first type of equation is a series of straight lines angled out from a central radial point. They create a cone outward from the origin with gaps between them with increasing density as approaching the floor. the second type is a smooth arcing projection, like the rippling radiations of the gravity waves of a planet as it courses through space, or perhaps the bending and weaving of a river as it traverses first this way then that. alternatively, they show a cross-section of a 3 dimensional bundle of fabric folded over itself with a certain rotational pattern that it moves. like the mouth of a clam, except pointed outward rather than in one direction (away from the pearl (or black hole) of the clam it's quite possible that nothing really happened on the moon before man. Perhaps it's just a rock floating in orbit. Or perhaps it deserves our respect and our trust, our honest comportment. ... this isn't about the moon, though. right so this graph is a description of why we need two dimensional numbers.
