This is what people say. IME, when I go walking, it's not that I dislike the exercise or the outdoors, but unlike being indoors and concentrating on something, my mind has no focus and turns inwards. If I'm already concerned about something, ruminating with an increased heart rate is the result.

We sure did forget about Metroid Prime 4 pretty damn fast huh. I have had it since xmas, still haven't played it and somehow nothing has been spoiled. sup w/ that

Zelda 40th is less than a week away. *fanboi mode activated* I hope there is something good in store.

I caught up on Gilles' 6music show from yesterday earlier; valentines special. He played this Michael Franks song, which I first heard two years ago. As love songs go it's amongst my favourites, I love the enigmatic, wistful, floaty and open-ended quality it has. youtu.be/M9SP6F2O1Ls?...

There's this thing that I have no firsthand experience with, and confess that I know almost nothing about, but I still despise it because that's what my friends are saying. The community already has prefab'd opinions you can try on and assimilate my dude, don't bother with your own!

after a convo yesterday this is extremely funny to me. difficulty in gaming BAD difficulty in music authoring FINE ACTUALLY & ADDS VALUE

Posting my secrets anonymously on the Crohn's & Colitis UK Facebook group. try to find me.

armpit hair is gross, wth is up with straight fellas. and don't get me started on your disgusting arsecracks you absolute savages. no wonder you're single. #HAPPYVALENTINESDAY

the problem with populism of any stripes is sooner or later, no matter how in with the in crowd you believe you are, you could find yourself on the losing side of it this isn't deep, original or clever at all but it is important and always worth saying. I think about it often in these trying times.

Crazy to me that a lotta my peeps are zero tolerance to genAI, then there's others that are lowkey out here with their geforce cards - and these people remain mutuals at least superficially. There is industrial-scale conflict aversion going on and it is so phony to me (don't shoot the messenger!)

Don McLean's playing on "Vincent" is so skillful and innovative, and what a song - it's poetry! Not like that bland what's-his-face Sheeran, that's just rubbish! This proves me entirely correct that music made after around 1979 is stupid, cheap, untalented, utterly worthless s- (That's enough - Ed.)

I was told about this the other day... I like the looks of it.

3 (liver, oysters, snails)

new/current ringtone youtu.be/aNETjSHgtBY?...

Went for a chill Radical Dreamers type of song for week 6

Shifted gears from Zelda 3 Rando and returned to my roots with Golden Axe Warrior (SMS!) I beat three dungeons, stopped for now. It's an overlooked but competent Zelda 1 clone, sits somewhere between that and Zelda 3. Also pretty hard, I have been eating shit for a living this morning.

All of this politics sure does tucker one out, time for some cheer with the new BBC adaptation of The Lord of the Flies.

found a photo of some nonsense I made during downtime when I was working at xerox a decade ago. it was cool discovering Allyson Grey's art a few years back because she does this sorta concept sometimes (except far better.) well anyway. at least I didn't use AI right

I have changed my bsky username to my domain name - no idea why I didn't do it sooner. no more bsky.social pleb, now I am one of the cool kids.

"Why would you listen to jpop, that's weird, you don't even understand it, just listen to english language pop like a normal person." ---> "I love Andrea Bocelli! Greatest voice of our generation."

Oh, we're all off Discord now. I use Witchhazel now. Lindworm doesn't let you stream your screen. Paprika is actually a foreign surveillance app. Dude, send me your Dingo. I can't sign up for Jester Plus. I don't like the UI for Cabinet's mobile app. Just toss me your Spork. We're on Spork now.

not that it's really a solution at all but I should probably push my neocities into better service somehow. member webrings? member guestbooks? yea i member that.

Aus & UK have had the Discord ID shittery since last year btw. still didn't verify, and point blank refuse to do so. fortunately it has had few consequences for me but ymmv. I am ... anxious about the current temperature I am seeing. I am already socially isolated enough...

Pretty sharp! Lots of familiar names around us

I am probably late to the party but this is nuts lol.

I have mass generated alttpr seeds twice now, then after only half a dozen seeds, feel I want to change settings again. Most seeds I only have to do a couple of bosses, never had to check sword pedestal, never entered Ganon's Tower. Also some seeds are very short. Wanna experiment but... nggh.

This isn't working on my phone, quoting to check it out on windows later. seems interesting.

Crohn's disease sucks, cannabis prohibition sucks and the Labour Party sucks, yeah that's the one, hit post

can you rly access that info on here? if so that seems like it might not be a good ides i think? I know what would cheer me up: seeing a list of ppl who hate my guts! said noone ever (well maybe the odd sociopath)

I never expected 2025 to serve me a deadass repeat of 2012, where someone I stupidly developed feelings for, fell for another mutual, and in both cases I knew both parties for years before they knew eachother. I don't know if I articulated that cleanly, but it feels like a cruel joke.

wonder when my nervous system will finally get over the emotional whiplash of last year. I need a lobotomy. sorry david you are not allowed Happy you must remain trapped in autism thoughtloop mental prison forever.

saved you a click - it's CHAOS WITH ED MILIBAND 💫🎉 god the express is so funny.

kinda hope he does

there's probably a sabrina carpenter album or something you could buy, idk.

what should I watch on youtube while vegetating in bed all day tomorrow

I'm trying to expand on this, but it's proving hard. My original plan of dictating into my field mic didn't work out (my thoughts are most sharp when speaking out loud/standing up.) Though writing about it is also proving difficult without waffling, too. Will see. But this is a WHOLE thing.

I've checked my PC for the publicised signs of malware, following news of the Notepad++ breach. I think I'm clean. I dl'd the latest ver via the homepage, and I'm doing a full virus sweep, too. Still, can't escape the feeling of wanting to uninstall it and find an alternative. What a pile of shit.

The Notepad++ supply chain attack is a brutal lesson: Your updater is the biggest vulnerability. WinGUp was compromised, turning the trusted update channel into an attack vector. It doesn't matter how secure your core code is if the delivery mechanism is rotten. Trust nothing. #security 1/4

On my last ALTTPR run I got a bit stuck again. Lo and behold... "Hyrule Castle": { "Sewers - Dark Cross:1": "TriforcePiece:1" One of these things is not like the other. o_o I am using advanced item placement, but somehow I still expected that this customiser setting would override it.

flicking thru the Nintendo marketing magazine included with my Prime 4 order last year, and it strikes me how in all of the photos demonstrating ppl playing the Switch 2, they are adults. Not a kid in sight anywhere. Idk that's just really funny. what did Nintendo mean by this.

The teevee loicense is important because of the BBC's role as a public broadcaster and--*EastEnders theme starts playing* you know what I'll be just fine with YouTube actually.

Tuesday. How do we cope🤔

"Here are the IoCs (Indicators of Compromise)" - sorry it seems you made a wee typo there, what you really meant to type was "Here's how to determine whether or not you have a nasty fucking virus on your computer."

a lotta posts heavy on what the infection is and how it works, but light on detection and removal methods. "just do a virus scan bro." aight?

Warning: If you have any version of Notepad++ between 8.8.2 and 8.8.8 or if you updated between June 2025 to December 2nd 2025 there's a risk your computer has been infected by malware. Please update as soon as possible and make a malware scan. notepad-plus-plus.org/news/hijacke...

welp. guess what I am doing when I get out of bed...

This is an excellent thread, I could easily reply with one of my own, because it touches on struggles I've had for a long time. I may still do that, but because there's so much I'd like to say and it's such an important topic to me I wanna try something else first. Failing that, replies later (...)

There should be more games that use parallel worlds as a gameplay mechanic (zelda altp, oracles, metroid prime 2, chrono trigger.) It's a fun & rewarding gimmick, I like it a lot. Developing a modern flagship game like that would probably be development hell though.
