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!

Bandcamp client progressing more and more 👀

oh btw, I started playing Arknights recently, so add me on there 👀

Bandcamp login? Bandcamp login!

designed a draft onboarding page

Bandcamp has no (public) API btw, so this is some fun trickery with scripting

still super-prototype-y stage, but pulling albums already works

Bandcamp:
- website experience is meager at best, etc. pp.

so I decided to start writing up a desktop client 👀

also, happy new year, fedi! 💙

now that it is 2021 in the UK

me: "I'm doing frontend, it is pain."

@nilsding: "I'm doing backend"

me: "...so you have backpain?"

"Looks like Google can't pay GCP fees" is probably the best take

🦀🦀🦀 GOOGLE IS DOWN 🦀🦀🦀

anyway

You know, we've always seen single services being down, but I never saw all services in unison being inaccessible.

That's kinda wild.

Google had it, apparently.

I'm pretty sure it generates enough traffic to be sniped away as soon as I forget it, oof.

I forgot to extend domains so many times, but Retrospring is probably the one I'm so scared of forgetting that I always do it in time.
