You would think that I'd be pissed. But no, I actually respect it. Difficult to not get tracked online in this day and age, so, y'know what? I appreciate your decision. Keep it up, buddy, you're doing great!
Do know that, when making this website, I did my best efforts to not make it rely on JavaScript too much (and in fact, only added gimmicks in JS, but while I do not purposely put trackers on here
(with the possible exception for cdn.jsdelivr.net for the MIDI player and github.com for certain images/functions),
there still are some features (mainly gimmicks) that'll be missing (notably themes and platform integrations).
Your choice on who to trust.
Sorry that you'll have to browse my website like this.
I do my best, but it seems that certain things just won't work right with a tiny screen like this, sorry if something doesn't look right! Web designing and CSS is a fucking pain in t...
I'm a human, but you'll have to take my word for it. I try my best to, at least... Society is a confusing burden.
I'm not more/less important than anyone else; I'm not looking to be, either.
I have major interests in technology, including Linux, gaming and programming.
I enjoy listening to music, more specifically metal/industrial, as well as more electronic stuff (vaporwave/synthwave, somewhat EDM).
I find social engineering, human behaviours and just general society aspects also somewhat interesting, and spend my time on the Fediverse. Because fuck Twitter and Discord.
I have neurological disorders, but I don't think they matter more than who I am, I barely ever mention them. (if they did, I'd be an attention seeker, and refuse to find solutions to my problems. that, or make people care about a buzzword, not actually about who I am.)
PS: I hate Windows, an OS that makes me feel like I'm renting a computer I bought full-price. Seriously, pay for ads. What the fuck.
PPS: Don't even get me started on Microsoft Edge.
"atlas core" has a pretty simple meaning as a reference to one of my favorite games, Portal 2. In that game, there's a co-op mode, where 2 players can complete levels together (or not, and just mess around with stuff) (from experience, we mostly messed around). The characters, Atlas and P-body, all look like other entities in the game; Atlas looks like an Aperture Science core, whereas P-body looks like a turret.
Would P-body be "P-turret"?..wait, no, that sounds like something else.
The term "right mouse click" (as in rightmouse.click) was just some creative name I tried coming up with when looking at domains and their ends (.com, .co, .me, etc). I didn't want to go with something too basic, so I found "click" to be quite interesting. I tried coming up with sentences with that, and thought of "left mouse click". That happened to be taken, so I went with the right mouse click.
Hmm, I could probably turn this website into some anti-NFT thing.. maybe I will.
Say hi to him. :)
Early 2020: I wanted to do a quick sketch of a chair in GIMP, and for no reason decided to add cat ears. Turned out that it looked more like a cat than a chair, so it became a cat named Chair from now on.
Mid 2020: I remade Chair entirely, so that it looked cleaner. I used those images as profile pictures nearly everywhere. For the better.
Late 2022: I remade Chair, again, without the intention of making something hugely different. This time, it was in Vector though!
Stuff I have worked on previously. And probably gave up on.
A simple and addictive, arcade-like game where you collect dots, written in C++ with Raylib, although taking code inspiration from another game, Terri-Fried.
Probably my proudest work, I highly recommend you check it out!
What used to be a Discord bot, that later got turned into a core library and a Discord bot.
Abandoned due to the main bot's discontinuation (Discord being garbage) and due to horrible memories with some people related to my Discord experience.
A Roblox module that allows the player to interact with the Spotify API from in-game as a potential substitute for game soundtrack or overlay.
Abandoned due to lack of motivation and not really having a way to authenticate. Oh, and because I now use YT Music.
A CLI-based app meant to synchronize songs from one device to another, but that can also be used to sort song files elegantly
Mostly sitting in unfinished limbo; I myself didn't find the need to continue this...
A Python side-project that I had that quickly put together that replaces Roblox's local sound assets.
Not really abandoned; it still works, just not updated.
An attempt at writing "Hello world" programs in multiple languages, as many as I could in early 2020.
This was actually my first codey-code project ever!
