Something to be proud of. ✊🇵🇸

And this is one of the reasons why I'm working on setting up a self hosted blog

i have been a member of the vic socialists for a year.

I miss MySpace and posting just anything, not trying to keep your grid ~aesthetic~. Also, how the fuck do people make big purchases on just their phone? Like if I'm booking flights and a holiday I need to get my laptop out

I just spent 2 hours trying to organise my obsidian vault and I hated it and undid everything I did

I need to make more blog posts, I don't want information to be tied to social media

Saturday

I got a junk 6th gen to test/adapt my mod for it. This thing SUCKS to open

Installed a DIN 3BP Zaxour mod, freaking beautiful!

..... windows 11 is wild

This feels like a slur

its funny seeing the media talk about how evil we are on blue sky, yet i thought the magas called us babies for leaving elon's hell hole

New battery, analog stick module, analog stick, usb-c charging port, and a 64gb micro sd card. Now to find a buyer

I'm getting my period so TIL that it messes with the ADHD medicine - it feels like I haven't taken it. I have been nerfed once again by being a woman

PEAK GAMING

I have started using clang-format and it's going to drive me crazy getting it right

My extended family is right wing it's disgusting. I know I'm a little too far left sometimes but I was radicalised by having empathy for the most disadvantaged people in society

Yeah so I saw the video, stay the hell away from twitter if you don't want to see it, very gory

oh it feels good to send this commit

Good news! Hopefully I'll be able to reopen by then! www.abc.net.au/news/2025-09...

Good news!

I don't know when tf I am reopening my store, I was waiting for Aus Post to reopen to the US but I might have to leave it for now... But I might wait a bit, I am restoring a couple of 3DS' and I am going to sell them with capture cards installed. I also have a couple PSPs/PS Vitas to sell.

uGhhh I have been battling with code errors because I was using the ESPIDF github as a reference but apparently it uses different versions, where as the IDF I pulled that was released LAST WEEK uses an older version. I am just ranting

I sometimes take my USB C cuts a little too seriously

Me, accepting payment in game boy CPUs because I have a problem

I set up bitwarden for my mum, hopefully I will never have to help with passwords ever again

CLOSER

I took a lot of people's advice and got a Saleae! With a discount ☺️

I have added my Game Boy back label .svg files to my wiki! wiki.nataliethenerd.com

Is Trump still missing, cause I hope he has fallen in a deep dark hole

Clear safer charge DC boards for the Color, Pocket and Pocket Color 🔜

Doing a massive restock... over 800 hand placed 1*1mm RGB leds

I can't believe my current hyperfixation is programming. The amount of time I have spent reading the ESP IDF API is crazy

My XM3's headband broke a few years ago (I would fall asleep with them on), so I just taped them up and used them as workshop headphones. I tried 3d printing replacements and they sucked. But I found a replacement headband online!

TIL Bob Katter is Lebanese but is ashamed of it lmao I'm incredibly proud to be a child of immigrants - what a racist dick. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-08...

I am the responsible tech daughter, I have been slowly teaching my mum what AI actually is, and how it's not intelligent it just spits out information manipulated by the user. It might be backfiring cause she thinks most videos are fake now but eh

So with this I was worried about my patched apps (revanced)... But what about emulation?!

massive milestone in my screen capture program. i have the right coloured pixels in the right order... wrong timing

$1 cheap Bluetooth transmitter, $1 notoriously shitty LiPo charge board = $72USD

VSCode doing this to me - I can't be bothered downloading VSCodium

I got my first big girl job, reproducing a broken PCB that has NOTHING to do with Game Boys!

I know I have to be more patient with myself since I'm still learning but my god coding breaks my brain. I think about it constantly, trying to work out what I have done wrong and what else I can try 😭

Hopefully the other android flavours wont be doing this

Update, it's official
