LionsPhil 🔸 3AM ZOOMIES MODE @LionsPhil@plush.city

DJGPP, the Free Software DOS development environment, has a 2019 version of G++ (9.x).

I don't know how to feel about this.

I was tired of still being tired all the time halfway into my week off, so decided to replace napping with Beat Saber.

Then got a bit excited about new maps and did a second burst of it.

So that's two hours of aerobics (and two showers) after...far too much 🥔 . I'll try not to have a heart attack.

Combined with having to do some history editing to work around problems with DOS/UNIX line endings, execute bits, and the git classic "I'm not going to point out you forgot to add that new file two commits ago", this sure took a few hours.

In the process of adding a link to this to my website, I discover Ubuntu have updated Ruby to a version that breaks the version of Jekyll they ship.

Sigh. This is why I lean so hard toward rolling all the generative stuff myself (like that mutator) with ad-hoc Perl scripts. At least C/C++/Perl-era languages are really resistant to making breaking changes.

Dug out an ancient #UT2004 mutator I wrote that had been languishing on a few hard drives, and probably long lost on the University CompSci department shared install...

I'm not cranking out Yet Another Battle Royale, GitHub.

Dear #Debian ...why *does* the default XFCE spin have four different things fighting to control keyboard layout, not counting dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration?

https://www.awkwardzombie.com/awkward-zombie/hourly-comic-day-comics-2021 is a mood, or was a mood before my ability to do anything just collapsed completely

I lied. New icon.

Inspired by https://twitter.com/PinballsWizard/status/1351904465125847046 's extensive work over on birdsite.

Also yes I know it's February.

I'm not even the only one around here still trying to fight off the gloom with increasingly unseasonable xmas lights (respect to the homeless tent on the canal with some clipped up), so cozy avatar remains.
