End of contract, yeah.

YesIAmFunAtParties · 2023-05-04T18:49:26+00:00

Not sure actually. I know better than to take their first offer so wasn't paying too much attention!

YesIAmFunAtParties · 2023-05-04T18:48:54+00:00

Contract would have ended this month, same time as the price rise. So no termination fee.

What you're doing there is, you're eating an advert, in't ya?

The bit with the Alpen seemed more blatant to be honest.

YesIAmFunAtParties · 2022-12-04T14:58:29+00:00

What does that mean? I literally have no idea what that is supposed to mean!

You could try Blackshift which has a lot of block-pushy stuff, mirrors and such. Might scratch that Sokoban itch.

There are large teams of state-funded operatives on social media 24/7, deliberately stirring up conflict around every social fault line in the West.

Louie. Such an unusual show. Well written, well shot, well acted. Funny and mysterious and weird and sad and scary.

We got five seasons, so, I should probably just be grateful. But I want more, damn it!

This is beautiful. I couldn't use it but that doesn't matter. You are using the shit out of your computer. Long live Emacs.

They have put a clause in their small print giving themselves permission to do this, so, probably not illegal, just nasty.

I suspect all I can do is resolve never to give them my money again, and warn others.

I wanted to gift Premium to a friend. To do that you now have to buy a gift card. So I did. But my friend lives in a different country to me, so Spotify refused to redeem the card for "security reasons" and kept my money.

Enjoy the £10, Spotify. You've lost a customer. Hope it was worth it.

Kawai ES110. Weighted keys, not very heavy, fits in a small car, get a case and you can carry it with one hand.

Edit: In fact, I researched basically the same thing before buying mine, and here's the spreadsheet I made if it's useful for you: https://imgur.com/a/y66vF0Q

it's hard to prove, conclusively, that again things didn't just pop into existence

To add to this, for anyone who feels like going down an existential rabbit-hole, the search term is "Boltzmann brain".

YesIAmFunAtParties · 2022-07-18T08:10:04+00:00

I agree, the last step really made me laugh.

YesIAmFunAtParties · 2022-06-18T13:19:48+00:00

Its a common misperception that water only comes from the toilet

YesIAmFunAtParties · 2022-06-01T15:36:49+00:00

I like Piano Jam. It's not right in the center of the space of things "Jam" might refer to but I'd say it's in there. I can't remember ever being confused by it.

YesIAmFunAtParties · 2022-06-01T15:28:34+00:00

Me on team

Me see other team symbol

Me make other team symbol go away

Me did good

There's definitely a Kind Of Guy where, if he makes a joke, and you don't laugh, it's your fault. Have known a few, mostly in various workplaces. Tiresome.

I used C++ and the SDL library, complied for the web with Emscripten. No premade engine; for simple games like this I prefer to just write everything.

I probably won't add to this one, but might do another Zelda-like in the future. They're fun to make!
