Lancer is a… weird little guy? I dunno even though I really liked undertale I didn’t really vibe with deltarune and never played past ep1. I do vaguely remember having fun fighting him.

Soooo, uh, yeah, that’s Lancer I guess. I’d love to hear about everybody’s favourite little weirdos.

    I wish I had someone. I’d like to yap a bit and cuddle. I’m tired. And I kinda wanted to talk more earlier today but idk what specifically about or what I’d want to message someone about.

    I’d also like to have someone to cuddle with me right now. I feel alone.

    Cuddling and yapping about stuff, two things I wanna do.

    I get the appreciation of a cheap cheap collar, or like a dog collar even, but I love the eternity collar even though its stupid expensive. I could justify it for the right sub

    I think I’ve finally turned a corner with embedded Rust, I tricked a Pi Pico 2 into playing NSF files!

    I’m scared of how many thousands of lines of code the NES emulator I had to write was, and for a while it felt like it was never going to be fast enough to run on a 150MHz processor, but some optimization that was within run-to-run variance on the benchmarks on my laptop must have really favoured the pico 2, and now there’s no dropouts!

    Lessons learned:

    • as far as I can tell, if you overflow stack on these microcontrollers you won’t get a fancy stack overflow error, it will just hard fault (although I suspect sometimes it won’t even fault and will just give you fun UB). Lost a day to that.
    • goddamn lifetimes and statics and interior mutability etc. caused me so much grief. There’s a crate called embedded_alloc which gives you access to Rc, Arc, Vec, etc by actually letting you define a heap. I highly recommend this although remember that when a Vec needs to grow it needs 3x it’s previous size in memory, because it creates a new Vec with 2x previous capacity, copies from the old Vec, then drops it.
    • I didn’t end up using both cores (yet) but Embassy doesn’t appear to support the doorbell IRQs or the inter-core FIFO queues, so if you want those you need to use rp-hal.
    • The embedded-sdmmc library certainly takes some getting used to. You need to implement long file name support yourself, no file sorting (do it yourself but use a master branch), use RawFile instead of File because it seems to be so ready to drop my files when I look the other way, etc.

    The higher up the ranks of the electromagnetic illuminati you climb, the less magical it feels. You can only have technical difficulties with your fucking orbs and silicon runes for the 58657th time before you forget all about the wonders of thundermancy and the profound formulae of fourier’s spectres.

    Pretending to be asleep

    My parents are talking about forcing my hair to be cut (they really have a problem with it)

    My brother starts defending me and shuts down their convo.

    What a good kid.

    Wasn’t the worst birthday I’ve had, I didn’t even cry. But someone forgot or at least didn’t say anything which felt and continues to feel bad. And I can’t help but wonder whether they’d care more if I was a real girl

      Surprise I just postponed crying until this morning in the bathroom at work! My deskmate had the good sense to take away the nail I had found on the floor, and then I asked her to take away the scissors and button/pin from my desk. I guess that’s all progress

    I came out to my little brother!

    It went … completely smoothly lol. No surprises on that front.

    He guessed I’d been transitioning for 4 years. This was actually kinda correct since I did start exploring my femininity around that time (aka when I left home)

    Mom is currently discussing with her friend as to why I suddenly went from keeping a buzz cut to growing out my hair.

    “What could have happened?”

    Truly a mystery for the ages
