I sometimes talk about learning Japanese. Two-time N1 failure. Future Fukuoka goblin. I like videogam. I like your art. I like 東方. I liked computers. Failing to resist the allure of shitposting. Accordingly, the shitposting shall accelerate. He/Him 🇦🇺

Now that it's all finalized, I'm happy to report that I will be in Fukuoka from Nov-Apr. I ended up getting accepted into Fukuoka JaLS (30+👴) and now it's all paid for and flights are booked so there's no turning back. It is exciting and scary at the same time.

Just came back from runnin' up that hill. Had no problems. Don't really get what the deal is.

My domain was expiring and I refuse to take the internet seriously so I'll be using this handle for the foreseeable future I can't be a .dev anymore anyway. I'm washed up and someone could think I was into computers (eww)

BTW the monster cat in my avatar is Kuro from the manga Kuro which I bought on impulse a while back purely because I thought the art was extremely cute and it was (almost) entirely in full color! I think I just had an image file lying around but I like it so I'll keep it.

2 weeks out from Fukuoka and I still don't know where I'll be staying. Last message I got said "we'll tell you closer to the date :)" and now I can't help thinking hmmmmm what if there is no school and I got scammed? Worse, what if I need to send... a followup email ヾ(゚д゚)ノ゛

Got more details and it looks like the school is a 20 minute walk from the apartment. Cool! Free daily exercise and saves me heaps of money on train tickets (which I heard are a lot more expensive vs Tokyo). Can double my ramen budget.

My favourite Ghibli character is the deer god cause it's just like me (completely silent, likes plants, becomes rampaging forest monster when you shoot its head off)

Everyone likes to say "damn autocorrect!!" whenever they make a careless typing error but no one has the guts to say "thanks autocorrect!" whenever it auto completes 'consciousness' for them and just pretend they knew it all along

Even my scales have achievements now. Fine then, here, praise me. This took like 800 hours of walking (uphill, both ways). I'll keep doing this until vainglorious shredded abs

It's cool how your parents will divulge your private medical history to the neighbours because they ran out of things to talk about while watering the shrubs

天網恢々 heaven's vengeance is slow but sure 天罰覿面 swift is heaven's vengeance Alright this dictionary SUCKS as a military strategy book

Closing in on 1 year since I did any kanji practice. I honestly wonder if there is any point to continuing to do it forever. There are clearly diminishing returns and I have no issue with reading or disambiguating characters in real life scenarios. Aside from 緑 and 縁. Those two can fuck right off.

Here's something fun. This old file from 2016 that I made for words I kept confusing due to their similarities. I printed this out and stuck it to my bedroom door. In the end I only glanced at it occasionally and got no real value out of it. But I can read them all now just from regular exposure.

What can you say? This was the definite winner they will never top. Also one of the best things I've seen at any PRGE #PRGE #PRGE2026

my favorite code comment ever is that one time I was trying to figure out why a certain file format converter didn't seem to be doing anything, and then I go down multiple layers of obfuscation only to find that the code is missing, and above the gap is the comment: // wow! I just stopped caring!

And that's the story of how I never read this book because page 1 made me feel satisfied I had absorbed all of its (abridged) wisdom. No I did not Get the Most Out of This Book. Or this paragraph, because I immediately forgot what it said.

I have decided I will train myself to do the splits. Yes, the legs thing. Fuck it. Nobody can stop me. This is definitely a good idea and will yield much joy.

You know that thing where you have an appointment at 4pm so you spend 9 hours doing absolutely nothing haha yeah I'm doing that but for all of October

To illustrate how absolutely bananas it is to dump 50k lines of code on someone and expect them to review/integrate it: The entirety of BioMenace Remastered - engine, gameplay code, UI, level editor etc. - is currently 72k lines after more than 2 years of development. So basically (cont.)

I like seeing the dev of the SNES core on the Pocket actually telling one of these dudes off. Holy shit.

2am earthquake here in Melbourne. Might be the strongest one I've felt here. A little spooky, as befitting of the season.

It's called a tax return because your beautiful money returns to the invisible cloud in the sky 💸💸💸🥹
