I do like neocities. Especially when designing KISS principle websites. (Modern web design has become RAM eating garbage...) Ended up stumbling on bsgen-new.neocities.org hosted there last week; which is used for generating blue sphere code

Actually, thinking about this now, I tried to play PS1 games on my PSP about two years ago, but couldn't because they needed to be (re-)authenticated. Sadly, there's NO way to authenticate PS1/PSP games on PSP anymore. Even

I find ReactOS interesting, but I could never get anything to work the last time I tried it - which was a few months ago. I also have a feeling that I'll be dead for centuries long before it ever becomes a viable replacement. On the pl

Aside from watching anime, reading manga and listening to Japanese radio (which was to help me get acclimated to people talking fast), I try to play games in Japanese. That's always a great way to learn new words.

I didn't have much interest in Mahjong originally, but after playing Yakuza 0 back in 2016(?) I really got into it.

My issue with SimpleX is that the company is in the UK, and it's developed in the UK under UK law. https://simplex.chat/transparency/ Considering how fiercely anti-encryption the UK is/has become (because &qu

You know what's funny? Even China doesn't do OS verification and block everybody from every website by default.

As someone from the UK, do you honestly believe the UK government would be happy with just "true or false" data?

I do find it quite interesting how people support this idea (because they got a warrant), but are vehemently against the idea of backdooring encryption. How is this any different?

In order to rack up nearly £100,000 of debt, he'd have to have studied at University for at least eight to ten years. (I'm not knocking him, I'm just saying.)
