Damien ✨ 🇧 🇱 🇲 @Eramdam@octodon.social

Been here for a while but I've always been lazy and never did this so here we go:

I'm Damien (he/him), from France, living in California, I post about:
- computers
- nerd/weeb shit
- music
- meta stuff
- programming
- politics sometimes (fuck nazis and terfs)
- video games
- i probably forgot some other things b/c it's late and stuff

And that's mostly it ✨

Day 4: music from a console exclusive series.

This was way harder to pin down that I expected it to be, but fuck it, Advance Wars Time

Day 3: 8-bit music. Oh gee, i wonder if I'll ever find something 😛🤔

Alright, let's take my first video game ever, Kirby's Dream Land 2

So that was fun to try, Big Sur on my hackintosh rig. Probably won’t install on my main drive because there are too many random things broken still but hey, at least I have a head start for future betas.

Day 2: opening level music. Does this count? I'll assume it does https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xC3oIT5g_os

tfw you're not sure if you're listening to Alva Noto or if your sound is just borked https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x-anLaqHuAE

Day 1: Title screen music, i HAD to put the Pictionary title screen in there, it just goes way harder than it had any right to be, and I love it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SJwh3erQlyE

Alright, screw it

I wish @xscopeapp would let me open multiple loupes at once...

2h later, turns out I'm a gigantic dumbass and didn't think of checking if my Raspberry Pi 3 could act as an USB gadget before buying this module.

It cannot 🙃

So I received the High Quality Camera module for the Raspberry Pi and that's a damn nice sensor for the size! Here's a picture took with it. Now I need to figure out how/if I can set it up as an UVC device for some sweet bokeh action on video calls 😎

The bar for Android's upgrade rate is THAT low, huh

Reading the headline was like

"Android 10 has the fastest update rate ever" 😲

"16% of users in 10 months" 😑

Someone on Mastodon shared a track from Tetrisphere and I'm losing it because it's literally "What if Aphex Twin did a track for a Tetris game?" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_n0ZAYLJELY

I have been made aware of the soundtrack for Bomberman Hero and losing my mind over how good it is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RIca6YfvTaY

Mastodon FE let me change the font sizes challenge

I wish Discord could use the `prefers-color-scheme: dark` media query to switch its theme automatically.

Marveling at the fact that we've had numerous proofs that policing in the US is systemically broken yet I keep seeing takes like "but if we defund the police they wont get better training!!!"

Even more prefers-color-scheme bullshit, on the new Reddit, this time.
