[ENG/GER] NOT a bitcoiner/stacker/maxi. I am here to have a damn good time! Rabbithole conniseur; I enjoy random stuff. :D Ex-Furry, (close to) blind, hobby developer/sysadmin, waifu enjoyer, long hair fetish (#hairjob). I sometimes talk about NSFW stuff; because fucking is fun =) (DMs always open.)

idk why or what, but City Pop is so nice and chill. Its like a step above LoFi. It's still "active" enough that you stay awake and productive, but not too fast to kick your brain into "boost mode". Did you know that constant high BPM music basically overclocks your brain? And medium BPM steadies your "clock speed"? I use those tricks all the time - it is why I could never give up my Spotify sub. I may be a hardcore selfhoster and whatnot - but Spotify is a keeper... #tunestr playlist

C feels like such a left-behind language. <- case in point. php/php-src is in there. xD And C++? ...i honestly don't know what to make of this. I love reading /trending to see "whats up". I check Rust, Go, C and C++ from time to time to see what has been gaining some form of traction. I like that PCSX2 is in C++ honestly, that team is putting in some of the most serious legwork. The original PCSX2 source code, plagued with bad design decisions and an overdose of plugin architecture was and likely still is such a mess...and these guys have been pulling this emulator out of the gutter and polishing it. Mad, maaaad respect to these folks. 'tis such a good piece now. The libretro core, on the other hand, is effectively abandoned. XD

Just how - literally - insane are javasctipt/typescript people? Granted, I see this all through the lense of github.com/trending and that dude. But he recently celebrated a form library, and the comments were full of react-hook-forms people... and now, TypeScript error handling. - Dismisses Go's strict typing LMAO - Basically explains Rust's result typing - Actually implements Go's error handling himself - Elaborates forever while Java people hold up their "throws" keyword - And, lastly, C++ in a corner hugging its 10km long type names from a million templates while his own type definitions grow longer by the minute. :D Y'all JS/TS people have a loose one, apologies but what. :D

I bet SilkRoad'S UI/UX beats the shops of today by a landmile. Because that guy cared. Not a fan of the hit orders and don't know about the rest but... I do feel like the govt overstepped by at least some degree. There is a LOT I have to learn about this first before I can make a proper opinion on this. But from the initial sound of it, this ought to be interesting. I did know of the Silk Road, and I knew how to access it - but I was too young to understand most of it and my english was absurdly poor. XD

This is pretty good. It just needs: - A dark mode - Spit out CSS (or better yet, straight up TailwindCSS) ...and I think I could get used to this. image (The Dragon's Inn...is a long, loooooong story. xD Let's just say my history in the internet is an absurdly long one.)

Können wir auch mal wieder was "neues" machen? Die ganzen remakes, reboots, retells und was weiß ich sind langsam mehr nervig als relevant. Hot Take: FF7 Remake/Rebirth hätte nicht veröffentlicht werden dürfen. Remake war noch gut, aber Rebirth war schrott. Fühlt sich an wie ein krampfhafter Versuch an einen alten Erfolg anzuknüpfen...der nicht gelungen ist. View quoted note →

I am so glad I signed up for Figma with an alias. Yeeted the bitch like hyper-masculine braincells do their wife (because they think it's manly). Off to alternative searching I go! https://www.reddit.com/r/UXDesign/comments/11veg61/open_source_alternatives_to_figma/?show=original I am so 50/50 on Reddit. On the one hand, I want u/spez to suck it and watch reddit implode - but there really isn't any suitable alternative - like, at all. Tried Tilde, tried Lemmy, tried Kbin... and they suck harder than an unconfigured SMF/phpBB O_o
