    Github education won't accept any of my documents to renew my free pro subscription. Thankfully I only used pro for having some subdomains in private repositories. This was just an excuse to have a friend help me self host! It's much better to have extra freedom over how I do things.

    maybe github won’t accept anything cuz at least one of your documents was forged? lmao

    I wish. Seems like it was because GitHub has somehow changed my school name to the school board name. So none of my documents reflected that.

    Apparently though by this point they might be blocking me because of how many requests I've made. I'm just not going to bother, self hosting is more fun tbh

    I like listening to game music on this website but for some reason everything is one continuous .ogg that keeps taking up more RAM the longer you have it open. Does anyone know if there's something I could do to unload older parts of the ogg or something? I can always refresh but I'd like something more elegant so I don't forget and crash from not enough RAM.

    @Sono thanks for checking. At least there's always refreshing. Or getting more RAM.

    If you have contact with the site's owner, you could ask them to remove "autoplay" from the HTML5 audio tag, as it nullifies the effects of preload disabling (as per Mozilla Developer Network documentation). They could try autoplay via Javascript, and the browser can block it if you ask it to (via config or extension).

    VLC is able to play audio streams online if your browser has troubles doing so.

    My friend just told me cicadas are edible. I genuinely want to try cooking them. I've been very interested in urban foraging and it's the only way I will get herbs and most fruits this summer. It would be amazing to try taking it a step further.

    I've got a few things on my list for this year. There are some abandoned lots with maple trees so I want to try making syrup, I want to make acorn pie, something with nettles, pine needle soda, and I just want to find some new fruits and vegetables around town.

    I think it's an okay hobby so long as I'm safe, plus it has real benefits like not feeding george weston.

    My understanding is you have to dig em up and eat them before they emerge and harden

    I'm finally reaching a point where I can type without looking at the keyboard. I never tried to learn how to type properly and I've always been really slow at it. It's great to finally do okay.

    Yeah I used to also do a hybrid type, didn't look at the keyboard 99% of the time - but if I lost my place I would have to look.

    Using the little nibs on home row feels super foreign at first, but after a while it's so good and you never get lost. Still occasionally type one handed if I am eating tho

    I don't use the home row either, but I do still have rows. My fingers go to QWEF and ,;'<ENTER>.

    I think that might be from emulators though. My melonDS settings are WASD as the dpad, QE for the tirgger buttons, and R for reset. Period and comma are start and select, and arrow keys are ABXY. I use a similar setup on others so my hands just naturally float there... chronically gamer.

    Hm, this typing setup will probably still require some glances at the keyboard from time to time 😁

    (Since no home row)

    My macbook's power brick was frayed at the base. It was so close that I had to tear it open and shock myself a couple times lol

    Charger is working good now though!

    This youtube short is boring, I also need youtube playables to keep me stimulated.

    Just as games I think they're fine. Not so sure about them being a youtube thing though, seems really weird for a video sharing site.

    See, that's what I thought. They're cool, but I don't think they belong on YouTube. It's a mixed bag.

    Just figured out how to make retail TADs that are 100% legit and work with TwlNmenu :D

    Basically TADs are the cert, TMD, common ticket, and encrypted app. As long as you have all those things then you can make one.

    You can get everything you need off of the NUS.

    I am so tired but I don't want to sleep. For some reason I have an unbreakable focus right now. I feel like sleeping is going to ruin that lmao

    I have genuinely been more productive in the last week than I have in a year. Normally I can't do anything so this is a very nice change.

    I replaced the tires on my bike and now I've been able to go around town a lot faster. I can bike to downtown in 16 minutes. Cars take anywhere from 10-20 depending on traffic and buses take 20-30 minutes.

    I was in an aircast from november to february so my legs aren't as strong as I'd like. Hopefully this will be a good way to go places quickly and also help my legs.

    Upgraded my desktop from windows 10 to windows XP. It's blazing fast, I would really recommend for everyone to make the switch.

    I have to use XP to run some old SDKs. Not compatible with anything past that. I might use 8 later but for now I can't do anything newer.

    Yeah no, don't install 8 then, even 7 is incompatible with those old programs.

    Although in my experience, 8.0 (strictly the 32bit version only!) has better compatibility than 7 (either 32bit or 64bit), but then you must change the non-Unicode language to Japanese or Russian to get some of those obscure programs working, but then most of them start working out of the box, no tweaking required like on 7.
