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!

@nilsding I took it onto me to deliver the best content to the new Twitter feature

whoa, I check on fedi again and I see more and more people from here using Retrospring

the cursed website I have pretty much done all frontend work on

so, "wget" is available in Powershell

and running it yields this error now

So I decide to go to sleep early one evening and suddenly Twitter is completely busted.

tfw I actually was praising Composer to not be a shitty package manager and then there basically is a pretty common meta package use case where they basically want you to use Private Packagist instead and deem custom repositories a "testbed"

yikers

having multiple people with admin rights on a Mumble server

my name EXPANDS

it's way too warm again

good..afternoon!

Docker on WSL2 is so freaking fast

hmm, it's just been a little over a day since I released the update for my Risk of Rain 2 mod and it already has over 600 downloads for that version.

whew.

non-node toolchain when

this probably also involves rewriting our entire toolchain with memory-save packages that actually do filestreams properly and not some "haha chokidar go watch" and some shitty deque implementation.

tfw can't wait to profile why our frontend toolchain is running out of memory in Docker setups

node developers be like: inodes go brrrrrrrr

circular dependency hell

aaaaaaa

tracked time for my first full ride to work with my scooter and it took me 17 minutes for 4km.

considering I had to wait for traffic lights/walk the pavement on a large street crossing it probably came out to 15 minutes pretty much.

wroom

reverse engineering sometimes is wondering about file extension origins, and then stuff like this happens

It's almost 3 AM, blast Hotel Moonside (kors k Bootleg)

so I just pressed my screenshot hotkey, without having ShareX installed

smart move, I blame it on the heat

guess I'll work on a tool for that, because I have multiple cases I want to handle:

* pattern matching for names/extensions (e.g. setup executables that we can assume have been run after lying around for days)
* stale file deletion after x time
* moving files around (e.g. image-ext into Pictures/)
