Yep, I’m in it for the fun.

Thanks, those are pretty awesome. Glad I’m not the only one overly nostalgic for these old screensavers. Looks like I misremembered the name though, I’ll have to update my documentation.

Glad you like it. I’m trying to figure out if I can get it to function as a screensaver using xautolock. I just need to figure out how to get it to fullscreen the new terminal window opened by my bash script before running asciiskyline.

“Star Wats” sounds about right

Sounds awesome, I’m in

Granted I was pretty young, but I friggin loved the ColecoVision. It had a respectable game library and Zaxxon in particular was the stuff. I remember my mom playing Ladybug (Pacman clone) frequently.

Welp. Guess I’m spending the rest of my evening looking for an emulator.

Ubuntu 8.04, Hardy Heron. I miss loving Ubuntu

Heck yeah man, do it

cmus forever!

I need that page loading animation back

Interesting to see one of the founders feeling the same way I and so many other people do about these issues. This world we live in, man.

This music is going to be stuck in my head for the rest of the day.

Hey, now someone needs to invent a projector with a CRT filter

I continue pulling the plug on Google

Man, I’m just glad to finally see someone else saying they have issues with Fedora. Everyone seems to think it’s amazing and stable but it never lasts more than a few months for me. I don’t do any tinkering or hacking or anything, just web browsing, Python coding, some light gaming with Steam. Arch and Debian both hold up great for me doing the same stuff.

I love ncdu for seeing where all my storage is being taken up.

The first time I used wget I felt so awesome. I was grabbing some extra music files I think it was for Ur-Quan Masters.

I wasted hours playing with After Dark as a kid. I recreated the Starry Skyline one with Python a few years back. So much nostalgia from just watching these little screensaver modules do their thing.

I loved 8! I got so into the characters and their stories. I was always excited to see more Laguna & Co. I remember downloading the Eyes On You song, probably off one of those sketchy P2P music sharing services.

Vagrant Story takes place in Ivalice as well and is the only game I’d say I love as much as Tactics when it comes to sheer vibe/atmosphere. The opening gameplay sequence is amazing.

Yeah dude, Tactics was incredible. Art style, music, gameplay, story, just the vibe, man. My only beef is that it had the typical FF ending feeling of getting too sort of “out there”. Went from a very human story to the typical third act of oh now there’s some big weird big bad I have no emotional investment in to pose a more serious threat I guess.

Agrias remains one of my all time favorite characters.

Screw Algus.
