10:10 pm - hi LJ! *waves*
this is my life these days. good god, I've become a geek. ^_^;

[21:51] Air Random: in any case, slapping a doctype on OATI code is a hilarious joke, at the moment.
[21:52] Matt: OATI?
[21:52] Air Random: workplace :P
[21:52] Matt: Ah.
[21:52] Air Random: a co-worker and I actually laughed at this the other day
[21:53] Air Random: because we're wading through eight- to ten-year-old code at this point, converting it to the new framework
[21:53] Matt: OUCH XD
[21:53] Air Random: a lot of it is actually physically painful to look at :/
[21:53] Matt: I can imagine.
[21:54] Air Random: what's scarier... I've heard that's actually what a lot of IE6's innards look like.
[21:54] Air Random: a ridiculously tangled spiderweb of hacked and re-hacked code, just stable enough for a release
[21:58] Matt: The same could be said of all software.
[21:58] Air Random: I suppose
[21:58] Matt: (Your words are as empty as your code! etc. etc.)
[21:58] Air Random: WHAT IS A MANPAGE
[21:58] Matt: A MISERABLE PILE OF JARGON!
[21:58] Matt: BUT ENOUGH TALK, HAVE AT YOU
[21:58] Air Random: XD
[21:59] Air Random: okay, I actually doubled over from that

(and coughed from laughing so hard afterward.)
geeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek

05:58 pm - ATTN: Everyone who knows me personally
I just lost all the data on my phone - the old one broke and the new one has nothing on it. Which means I don't have your phone number any more. Odds are I had your name/phone number on there in the first place; please e-mail me your name and number (korisu at gmail) so I can have it on there. Odds are I'm probably going to need it in the near future, what with bowlingfest coming up and all.

06:25 pm - GOD FUCKING DAMN IT
so Chiyo's hard drive just crashed. AGAIN. I seriously don't know what the hell it is about that computer that makes it eat hard drives. This is the third hard drive it's done this to.


goddammit. On top of that, technology is outpacing me and anything I'm trying to do, and I'm at a dead end. The internet isn't responding to anything any more, and all I can think is "how the fuck do the big companies do it then?" ... and then I remember how infinitessimal my resources are in comparison with theirs. ... goddammit. -_-

08:57 pm - Holy fucking shit.
I think I just shat my pants.

Watch this. It's the Spore demo. (Yeah, it's 37 minutes long. Stick with it, because it only gets more amazing with every passing minute.)


I don't take this statement lightly, but this could possibly be the best video game ever created. My mind is spinning with all the possibilities. o_o

Wright, I never really played any Sim since the original SimCity, but holy shit. I'll play this. If and when you get it off the ground, you will be my god.

10:39 pm - How incredibly true.
After three months of utter agony over this situation, I contact Emmett-sensei and she's more than happy to make the call and straighten out the (STUPIDLY SIMPLE) problem. I gush my heart out in gratitude, because I would never have been able to do it, and she replies with this.


Trenda-san,

You are very welcome. I'm glad I could help you. It was the easiest thing I could do in years, if not in my life. I think our life will be much easier if everything is like this.

Have a nice week!

Emmett




Reaching out for help has never felt so rewarding before. ^_^

10:15 am - Another meme, kinda fun.
1. Post a list of up to 20 books/movies/anime/TV shows/video games/etc. that you've had an obsessive fannish love of at some time in your life.
2. Have your f-list guess your favorite character from each item.


1. Pop'n Music [Yuli - setzer]
2. Azumanga Daioh [Kaorin - kitten_faust]
3. Beatmania IIDX [Iroha - setzer]
4. Family Guy [Brian - Dewgy]
5. Requiem for a Dream
6. Something Positive [Choo Choo Bear - kitten_faust]

#1 is insanely easy if you've been in the Bemanistyle Pop'n forum within the last two years or so.
And yeah, CStar was right - finding 20 was hard. x_x
(I've decided to stick with main characters for ease of guessing, so there's no crazy obscure ones like the Soup Nazi or anything. :P)

Update?

The TGA trip was good. Really good. Matt and Paul, it was nice to see you again, and Alex, good to meet you. There were a few more things at TGA that I'd have brought supplies to fix had I known, but I suppose you can't have your cake and eat it too. Ah well, it was nice to get out there. 28 hour roadtrip sucked, but I suppose we made the best of it. I finally got to play Trauma Center and Phoenix Wright (OH GOD SO GOOD), and I finished The Godfather. So it wasn't a complete waste of time. Best quote of the trip:
Waitress at Applebee's: Minnesota? Why are you all the way out here?
Us: Arcade.
Her: Hahahaha. No seriously, why?
Us: Arcade.

Controllers are coming along a little slowly, but now that the finish line is getting closer in sight, the little steps along the way don't seem quite as daunting. I'm thankful that people have been so patient along the way; it really means a lot to me. ^_^

Hunting was fairly successful this year. I got three, all on opening morning. Nobody else got any, but three's enough to keep all of us fed for another year. I'd like to tan the hides myself - a deerskin coat would be amazing. We'll see how that goes.


What else? ... I applied for a mathematician job with the NSA today. Hope I'll hear something back from them soon; I think that'd be a really interesting job to have. Cracking codes and such. On another note, life without Adderall sucks. No health insurance for the past two months = no prescription drugs. And withdrawal from Adderall isn't so much physical as it is mental. You sleep all the time, and when you're not sleeping, you're tired, groggy or just apathetic. I started to come out of it around the beginning of November, but still, it's tough. More irritating than anything, though.


More updates coming later. Maybe. -_-

So yesterday turned out to be the best day I've had in I don't even know how long.

- JavaScript shits DONE. I can't believe that had me wrapped up for a solid month. Computer work is way too much effort for way too little result. Oh well. It looks decent and works awesome. So hopefully that'll be something I can depend on for a good long while. And with that behind me, I'm looking to be done with this by Saturday. OMG FREE TIME?! SURELY YOU JEST!

- OMG I GOT MY BEMANISTYLE DATA BACK?! Wow. Keith rocks for finally coming through on that. :D And on top of that, got some little presents from Eddie. <3

- Pop'n 13 (Carnival) unlocks being revealed, the first of which I've been hoping for on the last three releases... HORROR EX! someone up there loves me. and by "up there", I mean "over in japan somewhere".

- GUITAR FREAKS/DRUMMANIA V IS COMING TO PS2. :O~ Holy crap, did I ever pick the right time to get back into that game.

- The Nintendo Revolution controller is... interesting. Time will only tell if it'll attract all sorts of new, interesting game developers... or if it will alienate them all completely and permanently. ¬_¬

And I found the best Pop'n icons while poking around yesterday morning, and people were generally awesome all day. Thank you everyone, you really made my day. Along with all the other things that decided to go right yesterday.

Hey everyone, I'm still alive. In some sense of the word, anyway.


Things have been really difficult lately, to say the least. Quite frankly, they've been absolute shit. (... There was a big recap of the summer here, but I can't quite find the words to say how I've felt during it all. Maybe later.)
