Not that I am asking any #twtxt developer to give me that, I am just saying that I am going to build those tools that I want

I can tweet and twtxt from the command line, now I want a popup text area, a simple local Web interface and an Albert/Alfred action to do it without going to the terminal.

so glad USB phone tethering exists. no way am I going to stumble through wpa_supplicant and wpa_cli to connect to coffeeshop wifi

@frogotbits.com Well actually I don’t have that much to right down (I think) so a bujo might be overkill. Actually I’m good with Taskwarrior for now, I find it faster to manage tasks, but having a place where I can put tasks and thoughts on paper is nice. That’s why i’m gonna go with dash-plus as @lucidiot@tilde.town showed me :)

@johanbove@johanbove.info I mean, I’d keep this one, but also create another one just to let go thoughts. But yeah, the more I think about it the sillier it gets.

Going to see Terminator Dark Fate next tuesday - somewhat big expectations

Apparently, not only is Netflix making more FMV VNs, but Youtube Red is going to produce some too? As a VN author I can’t complain too much but jesus are we in 1993 again? The return to forgotten history in the tech industry gives me whiplash

going without was fun and all, but i’m glad to have something to use again

despite the temporary break of last weekend, i still feel like i’ve been going at full power

my no-laptop experiment is still going alright… although i’m kind of just excited to start messing around with my new one when it comes

i’ve been insanely productive this week… usually my manic states don’t go on for this long but we’re pushing three days

i’m going without a laptop for a week… i’m really excited about it and day 1 was great so far

We ought to be suspicious of business plans that resemble manifest destiny: expansion into supposedly-unclaimed regions, turning inhabitants into tools & discarding the resistant (who now have nowhere to go) or worse.

Why Conspiracy Videos Go Viral on YouTube - The Atlantic https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2019/02/reason-conspiracy-videos-work-so-well-youtube/583282/

A lot of people are going to start watching Magical Girl Spec-Ops Asuka, and then say ‘this looks like trash’ and stop watching it. They’re right, and it’s a shame. Higurashi had the same problem.

Bad idea of the day: Do a free machine-generated text class at a library (using tracery or something), self-publish the course materials as a book (with proceeds going to the library as donations), & get a couple copies for the stacks.

Unusual core features for a dream language for small computing: MUMPS-style disk persistence of otherwise normal variables indicated by sigils, go-style piping between coroutines or greenthreads, message passing & guards like erlang, parsing backtracking like icon, constraint solving like prolog

i think it’s going to take some time before i can actually Do School again…

One of the ideas I was playing with in MfoM was the distinction between player & player character with a ‘possession’ metaphor, & how that relates to the time loop. I didn’t go so far with it. Maybe in Book of the Damned I’ll have the player be a possessing-spirit.

My furnace broke & the furnace repair guy is snowed in, & it’ll be going below zero tonight. So, I had to run to walmart & buy a bunch of space heaters, & I’ll be up all night making sure nothing catches on fire :(

We all know about social constructs vs reality, but there are levels of spookiness (and no upper bound). We can define them as how far a lie can go before the truth gets its boots on. Spookiness level one – money – already goes basically perpetually.

Remember: unless your turkey sees its shadow, you must go back underground and avoid buying anything until halloween of next year.

Oh no… The Alita movie is going to try to cover the rollerball arc in addition to the first arc.

I’m going to be periodically posting research resources for the new book here, as I find them: http://www.lord-enki.net/resources-survey-of-alternatives.html

Bunny-Girl Senpai is an interesting show. It seems to be going for a theme with the various arcs: each one seems to be about how communications media change our behavior & self-image by exerting social pressure with expectations.

Because of the use of ‘rune’ to refer to unicode codepoints in go, a fulthark transliteration program might have somewhat confusing source…
