Andy @pixel@desu.social

So I've been on here for almost three months, guess it's time to do one of those #introductions 🤔

My name is Andy, also known as pixel or pixeldesu all across the internet. I'm a professional web developer from Germany, while general dev stuff is also my hobby.

I do whatever I'm interested in, games, art, music, etc. while my current focus is preservation of video games and reverse engineering.

I love to make new friends, so feel free to shoot me a mention and let's talk!

I'm bored, ask me stuff:

https://github.com/Retrospring/retrospring/pull/106

now all of Retrosprings HAML template is up to at least some standards tho.

oops I did it again

made a PR that touched +100 files

"109 files inspected, 0 lints detected"

d o o o o o n e

"87 files inspected, 772 lints detected"

getting there, slowly

"88 files inspected, 1235 lints detected"

"39 files inspected, 599 lints detected"

get owned, file!

with that said: I love CSS Variables and I would have loved them even more if they were widely adopted when we added this feature 5 years ago and didn't have to render an SCSS file in the backend and upload it to AWS.

Coolest feature still:

And yes, I merged it myself, but I got all review and test approval

after like 3 or 4 solid by-hand smoke tests.

So this got merged earlier today!!

Made a VNDB account, and included all the Sakura * VNs I played

used one Note field to describe all of them, since they are that simple

I didn't sleep overnight and so I did a long afternoon nap--

good evening, fedi!

I've been really busy, and this has been the bane of my existence for the last 2 weeks.

Zoom acquiring Keybase mainly for their people-power in security and Keybase basically stating "whatever happens to Keybase is in Zooms hands" is basically telling us preemptively that it'll just die.

You know that your day just improved millionfold if you reverse engineer a game

someone joins your Discord

and suddenly you have a Release QA build of that game with PDBs for both the game and the engine

I just spent solid 3 hours cleaning my mechanical keyboard

for the first time

after owning it for 4 years

"gamer gunk" is a weird but accurate term, and I'll now clean my keyboard more often definitely.
