6:17:54 shinmera gingerale: I got a free itch key, so here you go: https://glassbottommeg.itch.io/skatebird/download/gJk1nh9irRXb1UAcQy7nVaGkqV5p-iNgXW25Kp7Mxpcf1gQAr5GZru1nh

6:17:54 Colleen glassbottommeg.itch.io/skat... Website (HTML), Title: Download SkateBIRD by glassbottommeg - itch.io

6:18:06 shinmera Once you claim it and download it pls put it onto the NAS too

6:20:52 gingerale Sure, and thank you.

6:21:20 shinmera I'll have to wait until I'm back to play it :(

6:23:34 gingerale It's gonna be great.

6:23:36 Colleen It's gonna be great.

6:45:55 shinmera sigh

6:48:46 gingerale Odd. Linux and Mac versions are up just fine. Windows version refuses to upload.

6:48:58 gingerale Will try again.

6:49:00 shinmera refuses how?

6:49:12 gingerale It spent ten minutes at 0%.

6:49:27 shinmera hm, I don't have any virus checkers or anything like that on the nas

6:49:49 gingerale Oh, the Mac version didn't finish properly either. Either way, restarting the upload seems to work.

7:29:03 gingerale They should be up now.

7:43:06 shinmera cool

7:52:49 gingerale Hm.. Seems my PC doesn't have virtualisation enabled. Odd, because I'm certain I turned it on.

7:59:19 gingerale There we go

9:01:52 gingerale You were right. Manjaro was very painless to install. Got it done even with my stuffed head.

9:02:13 shinmera :coop:

9:02:14 gingerale Got Portacle set up and it works nice and fast too.

14:57:03 minty she's pretty

14:57:08 PincerAttack Oh, nice. That is a very uncanny-looking Tomie cosplay.

14:57:15 PincerAttack Very fitting

14:57:22 shinmera minty: very

14:59:43 anon took a nap

15:00:11 anon gingy I can't believe there are people who are over level 99 and are still in S

15:00:23 minty bad matches?

15:01:58 anon no, I mean when I watch other people playing on Twitch they are still in S despite having played the game for many hours

15:04:56 anon man I really want to get better at art

15:05:03 shinmera I can't believe there are people over level 99

15:05:14 anon I woke up early, finished most of my Kanji and there is still a lot of time today

15:05:17 shinmera Gotta be real pathetic and boring to play the game for that long

15:05:30 anon think I'll skip playing today and just focus on art

15:05:30 PincerAttack I can't believe there are people still playing the game

15:05:41 PincerAttack Outrage I tell you

15:05:42 minty i can't believe

15:05:56 shinmera minty: Moulder would be disappointed in you

15:07:02 PincerAttack Outrageous I tell you

15:10:12 anon There are also some people who are too afraid to stream and are now sticking to discord

15:10:19 anon which is a good idea imo

15:10:30 minty ...afraid to stream?

15:10:34 minty what the fuck?

15:10:37 anon stream on Twitch

15:10:45 anon because of being called the N word

15:11:04 minty oh... yeah

15:11:18 PincerAttack By you?

15:11:31 shinmera minty: twitch is having a thing where bots and assholes spam racist shit into your chat to get you banned for osliciting hate speech.

15:11:38 anon nah it gets blocked if I say it

15:11:58 PincerAttack I hope shin will be okay

15:12:05 shinmera nobody watches my streams anyway

15:12:18 anon shin isn't even a streamer

15:12:29 shinmera I was for over a year

15:12:29 PincerAttack He's a dreamer

15:12:37 anon anyway enough fooling around, I gotta work on art

15:12:53 anon gotta make up for last week

15:13:25 anon shin how is Italy

15:13:32 shinmera it's nice

15:13:34 shinmera very italian

15:13:35 anon did you eat lots of yummy pasta

15:13:39 shinmera no

15:13:43 anon y

15:13:44 shinmera mostly pizza

15:13:52 anon oh I am surprised

15:13:55 shinmera why

15:13:56 anon that's something I'd do

15:14:01 shinmera ???

15:14:13 minty you're supposed to be classier than anon

15:14:21 anon I imagine going there just eating pizza and nothing else

15:14:35 shinmera pasta is a dish you eat before the main course. it's a starter kinda deal in italy.

15:14:44 shinmera you don't get it takeout or anything

15:15:13 anon didn't know that

15:21:50 minty startin' to feel a little garbage. gonna go eat n lay down

15:42:09 isoraqathedh Ugh.

15:42:13 isoraqathedh I've not had a good week.

15:42:27 shinmera :(

15:42:30 shinmera What's up man

15:42:30 isoraqathedh Various realisations about how my life is going is haunting me for a while.

15:42:54 shinmera and I'm guessing seeing a psychologist is out of the question?

15:43:01 isoraqathedh Yeah...

15:43:24 isoraqathedh I wrote all about it on a PDF if that helps.

15:43:43 shinmera Does it help you?

15:43:53 shinmera Writing it down, I mean

15:44:00 isoraqathedh Maybe? If nothing else it does improve my self-awareness.

15:44:06 shinmera That's good

15:44:15 isoraqathedh I'm not worried about nonspecific things, I know aht I'm worried about.

15:44:25 isoraqathedh Doesn't bring me any closer to actually resolving those issues but hey.

15:44:53 shinmera Well, if you can't resolve them, then learning to deal with them is still valuable.

15:45:44 isoraqathedh Can I have a filebox actually?

15:45:51 anon deal with it!

15:46:41 shinmera isoraqathedh: you don't?

15:46:45 isoraqathedh I don't.

15:46:51 shinmera huh.

15:47:09 isoraqathedh I don't have (FILEBOX::FILEBOX FILEBOX::UPLOAD) apparently.

15:47:31 shinmera try now

15:47:52 isoraqathedh Okay now I do.

15:49:17 isoraqathedh https://filebox.tymoon.eu//file/TWpNMk1RPT0= Okay here's the thing I wrote.

15:49:17 Colleen filebox.tymoon.eu//file/TWp... Application (PDF)

15:49:20 shinmera lmao https://twitter.com/JasonSCampbell/status/1438503498690154497?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1438503498690154497%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fforums.somethingawful.com%2Fshowthread.php%3Fnoseen%3D0threadid%3D3940821perpage%3D40pagenumber%3D6786pti7

15:50:41 shinmera isoraqathedh: any chance of doing exercise aside from walking? IIRC walking is one of the least efficient ways to lose weight.

15:51:04 isoraqathedh ...not really.

15:51:42 shinmera isoraqathedh: mental stamina is absolutely a thing. Psychology does not count as a science, but it is a well established fact that people get mentally exhausted. Burnout is real.

15:52:30 anon ugh

15:52:37 anon gotta play to get it out of my system

15:52:41 anon just 1 hours

15:52:41 shinmera Absolutely with ya that 2.5 hours of free time is not enough and neither are 16 days of 'holiday leave'

15:53:48 shinmera isoraqathedh: any chance you could rent your own apartment? I presume you're earning a "living wage" now, so that should be possible, no?

15:55:20 isoraqathedh In this market? Nah. I barely make 50% more than the rent around here.

15:55:33 shinmera How do others get by?

15:56:05 isoraqathedh Living 20 ~ 30 km from work, and also in like 100 ft² flats.

15:56:32 isoraqathedh Anyway the point is that I think I can tolerate this if I was in the UK, but not really in HK.

15:57:02 shinmera I see a lot of connectins in the issues you write about

15:57:03 isoraqathedh One thing I will point out is that I'm also kind of conflicted about the whole "I gotta go to the UK for my PhD thing".

15:57:07 isoraqathedh Yeah.

15:57:09 isoraqathedh I noticed that too.

15:57:24 isoraqathedh Stuff compounds with each other quickly.

15:57:26 shinmera Political instability and family pressure lead to stress, which leads to bad health, which leads to bad job performance.

15:57:45 shinmera Conflicted in what way?

15:57:52 isoraqathedh ...creating more stress, then stress eating, then worse health, &c.

15:58:09 isoraqathedh Conflicted in that "oh god this is going to be another stressor and time sink".

15:58:18 shinmera It could also be a way out.

15:58:21 isoraqathedh It'll probably be worth it to GTFO yeah.

15:58:30 shinmera A PhD pays money, and is likely to get you a job abroad once done.

15:58:31 isoraqathedh I'm setting myself a date to get things kicked into gear.

15:58:37 shinmera Either at the university, or at a local company.

15:58:38 isoraqathedh Oct 15.

15:58:52 isoraqathedh That's roughly when next year's PhD applications open.

15:59:04 shinmera Alright, preemptively crossing my fingers

15:59:13 shinmera Let me know if there's anything I can proofread for you.

15:59:26 isoraqathedh I'll have to see what I can do with what's left of my time reserves.

16:01:33 shinmera It's too bad you're not an EE student, or my dad might have been able to help out.

16:05:27 PincerAttack As always, I don't have anything helpful to say other than good luck
