Went from having seen no OMITB to watching all four seasons back to back. Adored it, need more. Haven't seen such lovingly executed irreverent self indulgence mixed with existential dread since Pushing Daisies.

Finally playing Dishonoured only looks at watch 13 years late. So far so lots of sewers.

Kudos to whoever managed to cram over a thousand uncooperative brains into my head. Stringing coherent thoughts together must be nice.

I started learning #Esperanto to see if I could try and put my #ADHD to work. 5 months on and, incredibly, I'm still learning it. Seems like my theory that the things I had a childhood interest in would still have power was maybe correct. Did my points of interest get set in stone as a child? […]

Oooh, I understood a couple of sentences of #Esperanto outside of Duolingo :) I can usually catch the general drift, but this is the first time I knew all of the words in the wild. A nice little milestone. (No, I'm not confident enough to toot in Esperanto yet)

TIL I've been walking down stairs incorrectly (zero vertical hip swing) all my life, causing unnecessary strain on my knees. When I do it correctly my 52 year old knees don't feel like they're the ark of the covenant and someone just opened them.

Rest peacefully, Tony Slattery. Without you I wouldn't have "veiny bang stick" in my knob words lexicon. I wish the cost of celebrity hadn't been so high and hope that next time around your filthy mouth continues to surprise and inspire.

We're soon to retire our old home server Colin (an ageing HP microserver containing drives older than I care to think about). He's to be replaced by a little N100 box to be called... Malcolm.

I've started my #Esperanto word searches (Xmas gift). Pro tip: erasable pen.

Oooh, Wikipedia has pages in #Esperanto . This'll help with my real world reading exercise. I also got an Esperanto word search book (dead tree) for Xmas 🎄🎁 This all started out as experimentation on my attention deficit - "can I weaponize my #ADHD against myself to learn something that I […]

I don't usually remember my dreams, but some dream person just said to me "I can see you take your suffering very seriously" in a semi amused but concerned manner and I think that the they them me of I might be right.

A little bit of roguelike dev #ScreenShotSaturday #IndieDev #GameDev

submitted 74 days ago • 0 comments

I've been modernising an old roguelike (actual roguelike that's like Rogue) skeleton project so I can progress it over Xmas. Almost all data is now in YAML and consumed by code generators, so everything gets compiled in. I prefer build time flexibility over runtime flexibility, a luxury I can […]

I gave #zig a go for gamedev but backed away quickly. Zig is genuinely awesome, but it's too soon for me as I don't want to be version fighting the language and almost all zig info I search for is out of date. I'll be back in a year.

Heading back to the village I grew up in to visit Dad. Trying to decide if I tell him about my surprise #ADHD revelation. It should be fine, but it feels like I'm overdue a bad reaction. So far everyone has been awesome, but I know not everyone is that fortunate. Maybe I'll just hide in my […]

Gonna try out #zig for some #gamedev . I still love golang for gamedev, but zigs closer ties to linking with C intrigue me (at least for the client side, I'll stick to Go for server side), and the much smaller wasm builds would be a huge plus. It's also an excuse to try out Jolt Physics, plus […]

One of the curious upsides to discovering you have #ADHD as an older man is that suddenly other people have an easier time finding presents for you...

So, "gis la revido" is taught (by Duolingo) as "see you later" in #Esperanto . Buuuut... the literal translation is approximately "until the re-seeing", which I really like as a phrase. So, until the re-seeing!
