If I had a MILLION dollars I'd probably spend it all by hiring software
developers to create open source mods for The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.
But if I had a BILLION dollars you can bet your butt there wouldn't be any
starving kids in my country anymore. At least, until my money ran out, but
frankly it'd be well spent.

I've messed around with Bevy and the library most similar in C is Raylib. in
Lua it'd be Love2D I think.
I love the idea of those systems. I haven't built a full game using them but I
can conceptualize operations within them easier using a framework like that
versus a game engine like Godot.

when a player disconnects, scan through all the other active games and find
one where the players are in a similar situation. In as many ways as possible.
Then, take the player who's playing the most similar character / role or

if you're just learning how to cook, I highly recommend "Ms. Dash" and "Better
than Boullion" - focus on getting the ingredients and mechanics right, and
then work on seasoning them.
Level 2 is paprika, garlic powder, onion flakes, lime juice, and red pepper
flakes for spice.
level 3 is learning the difference between basil, oregano, parsley, and other
herbs.
be careful with salt and pepper. They can do a lot, but they can also easily
do too much. better to salt to taste.
also, MSG is wonderful for savory dishes. Your body breaks it down into sodium
in your stomach acid so imagine you're adding salt when considering MSG for
healthy proportions.

dependencies would be fuckloads easier if applications put their files in
standard locations. actually it's better if they are at abstract locations -
meaning it can be user defined for each file.
then, have some "sensible default" setting the user can configure which says
"if an application wants to store a, say, config file, where would it put it?"
and you'd say "oh in the ~/configs directory" then the install wizard would
say "yes yes very good, and now where should I store user interface templates?"
then the user is like... "wat" because they don't know how the software works
yet.
this solves 90% of all software dependency issues because all you have to do
is keep a file with all the directories for each program. then, search through
the file every time you need a dependency connection.

cool! my tip is to walk down the aisles and look at at least one book per
aisle - whichever you feel called to, don't question it too much. Then just
grab whichever one you're most interested in learning more about and BOOK IT
out of the store before they can tackle you to the ground while yelling "STOP
THIEF"
if you're lucky there'll be an old grandma in the background crying and maybe
a kid saying "mommy why are they tackling that poor person" and the mom will
say "hush now this kind of thing happens, say would you like some icecream?"
and before you know it they're down the street and out of earshot just as the
handcuffs clink into place. Unfortunately you'll forever be banned from that
bookstore and you'll never know what secrets were held within those pages, but
at least you'll have some shiny new bracelets, if only for a time.

is an illusion that helps things make sense - for we are always living in the
present tense. The past is unforgiven as all good things end, for you know I
will always be condemned.
Will happen, happening, happened
Will happen, happening happened
Will happen, again and again, our timeless tale of how we wend

Perhaps I'm strange, but I like to take that particular joy that you're
describing in essentially every piece of media I consume. Not as a vengeful
feeling, but rather just a product of the idea that I cannot truly know the
intentions of those who created it, so I approach my understanding of it from
an angle that is aligned according to my own experience. Which means that my
conclusion lands somewhere they (presumably) didn't intend...

as a baby, I would sit and stare at the clouds. My parents took me on plane
trips, and so I'd watch them as I drifted through the air.
It was wonderful. Many hours of this are present in my baby-hood, the part I
can't quite remember.
But my parents do.
I'd play with small, perfect toys, and I'd cry to myself when I lost them. To
myself, of course.
I'd also play video games. The first game I ever played was Dragon Warrior on
the Nintendo Gamecube Color. Alongside Super Mario Deluxe.
It was a blessed childhood. Or so it seemed to me. Things went wrong, as they
always do, but a child's narrative doesn't often have room for the specifics.
Swept along by the nature of fate, they have NO idea what's going missing.
They still play, of course they play, in their strange new realities.
They play because they are children, and children play.
How beautiful, the stories they learn from each song. How cherished, their
feelings derived from affection. Hy heart longs for them, as a bird yearns for
her un-nested.

if you don't have a lot of time but still like games, like for example a new
parent or if you're focused on your career or always traveling, I recommend
the game
Star Realms
in the digital version, which can be played on a phone or computer, has a mode
called "48 hour turns" where each of your moves has time to think for two
entire days. Most of the time you won't need two days, but it gives time to
work on other things.
for people who enjoy this mode, it is not uncommon to have 3-5 games running
at once. When they have time, they can play as many as they can, and as long
as they're keeping up with it there's very little chance they'll lose time.
kinda like words with friends, except space strategy.

every object has a time limit for how long it can stay in your life.
some objects which are loved tend to stick around longer. others fade away and
are forgotten.
when an object is given away, it is born again, to live a life renewed. The
timer restarts, and it yearns to see the future you have granted it.
when an object is thrown away, it fades into the background and it's memory
grows into dust. This is not always an unhappy thing, for it makes room for
new objects in your life.

The color is what defines the third eye

my mother would knit square wash-cloths with coarse yarn. My memories hold
plenty of colorful patches of knit fabric. they work well as a sponge
replacement because you can throw them in the wash instead of the trash. plus
they're good practice for people learning to knit, or practicing a new
pattern, or switching colors, or whatever interesting thing you're learning.
if I remember correctly, the kind that worked best felt "knotty" with holes in

make sure you always keep a vague sense of the time while in the spirit world.
Also helps if you have a general sense of where you are and where you're
going, NORTH/SOUTH/WEST/EAST style.
I mean, it's helpful to get lost.
very helpful.
in fact, you'll never get where you're going if you don't get lost.
but if you forget what time it is, radically so, if you lose your way and
can't find the exit, then "oh no, guess I'm trapped forever until someone
comes by and directs the children and seniors to the exit"
(if you're normal human age then sorry, guess you're stuck for a while more.
At least you won't starve.)

That happens a lot with online people. You can only see one side of them, the
side they present to the camera, and so it's difficult to find new ways of
looking at them. Hopefully you can find the brighter sides of this person! I'm
sure they exist, unless the person is spiralling. Then they'll often be
pushing themselves first one way, then the next, but both directions point
down... And that produces the ":(" feeling. Good luck!

I never rest. Not mentally. I find it sooooo much harder to get moving again
once I'm asleep.
But I've been sleeping lately, because it's "good for me" or whatever. Because
I'm "burnt out and need to heal" or something.
Damnit why is it so much harder to stop snuggling someone than it is to pack
up a tent?
I'm like the guy in Hot Fuzz, that one really good movie about cops. oops cops
mentioned one second.
I'm always moving, but, I hardly ever seem to be able to get anything done.
Why is that? Is the work just... endless? Am I ever a slave to my
surroundings? Or am I just cursed with a mortal form, a form destined to toil
in whatever way it finds itself contextualized in?
Maybe I should just stop complaining. Maybe work is it's own reward or
whatever. I don't think I'm depressed anymore, although good luck getting me
to feel any emotions except focus, and the call to intercede on another's
behalf.
I don't have time for this. >.

I don't understand why modern software isn't error correcting. We shouldn't
have any bugs in this day and age.
For example, if you're missing a dependency then why doesn't your program try
to, I dunno, download that dependency to the program's installation directory
and use it there? Seriously there are very few problems that are unsolvable!

It sounds like you enjoy the themes of Dark Souls. When people say "soulslike"

when riding a roller coaster, as the train crests the first hill, the first
cars near the front will peak over the edge, ready for the coming thrill.
at the back, it feels like you're climbing, 'till suddenly you're not, and it
whips you around flying! Straight over the curve, the world is flashing right
past you, and down around around you'll go faster.
My mom always said the back is more fun because of how fast you go. I tend to
believe her, but there's something special about the front as well -
especially the very front! That part is neat because you can see all the
scenery completely.
But only one car's in front, so it's quite a coveted position. Lucky for us,
the line's not too long! Good thing they built enough rides to carry us all
along.
what's that you say, there's capitalism at play? and they only had room for
those who could pay on this day? how rude!
well, maybe they'll build more tomorrow.

how cherished is she that wanders with the
flowers in the garden of eden
under a big tree her heart she will leave
with all the designs she abandoned
I lay beside them and wonder about her
does she know we miss her horizons
I think she will mind if I have resigned
my fate to a life I will hide in
Oh how I do long for you
her symbol is the name
that lets us belong here
a falling a light and a leaving
if only our words were listened
but power is penance
and repentance is all that I have chosen
here in our sanctum we live with our only
and time will be gracious towards us
it's only our words that keep us
confined to our lights and our lonely
yet there and beyond her lights do belong
beyold in the land that is sanctum
here in our forest is our own dark forest
where we keep our silence to ward us
but there and beyond her heart does move on
free from her moments of longing
silent were we to the forests we plead
as terror has come for our moments
I think I'd find her
that cherished belonging
when she does at last come to warn us
how little we find of we find of thoughts from her mind
yet now we are kings of our own time
oh how she does wander true
how cherished is she
that wanders with ye
here in the garden of eden
under a big tree her heart she will leave
with all of her fears since abandoned
I lay beside her and find her defined here
will she know we miss her horizons
I think I will mind if I have resigned
my fate to a life I will hide in
oh how she grows fond of you.

my favorites are the rock spirit and the water spirit, especially in tandem
because they build up long-term defences and I'm all about that kind of
meta-gameplay.
sometimes I play the video-game version and play more than one spirit, just
because A. nobody will play with me IRL and B. then I can coordinate myself
without feeling bad about stepping on other player's toes
