This is a Thing I post to. I treat it like Twitter. I know its not, but I like it. The information here is strictly random. There is no value to reading any of it. I invented this (really, check the first post date)
Got some ideas for the next Denouement chapter. Excited. I know, no one else is. But I am
im pretty sure that the movie bill and ted was actually about hte band BTS… I think its possible BTS are going to save the world at some point… I love those boys
ALL point and click style adventure games would be better as visual novels. there is no exception to this
postend a new chapter of my sci-fi today. its close the to mid point from a plot point of view and thats exiting to me
There are some serious design failings with the amazon echo buds but they really do sound GREAT
today i leaned the word “hucksterism” and i adore it
Have video a little earlit =>https://youtu.be/txExr5EJsoc
Reading Zen in the Art of Writing by Ray Bradbury. Its good.
Suddenly everyone is talking about Fish shell. Fish seems like a terrible shell, i wonder why no one notices
splitgate, still fun!
pushed another chapeter of my writing to the website today =>https://hexdsl.co.uk/book_club/denouement7-20210904.html
the forgotten city is an excellent game. I played it in one 7 and a half hour sitting and love every moment of it
lol
I think a lot about my life, about the way i spend my time. I usually come to the conclusion that its okay and everything is fine. Some times I think I would like someone to share it with. But over all i think im okay. thanks for asking. This has been your hexdsl update
Finished Myst… then did it again on RealMyst, then the 2021 Remake… then each ending….. then speed run it… now i want more myst
made more progress in Myst (realMyst) and i think this means that im the smartest person in the whole world of all time or at least, thats how the game makes me feel
Literally today discoverd that I do fucking LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE myst. Just Love it. Can’t get enough of it!
I have commited the crime of imagining post 7 and 8 before post 6 is done and im getting myself all confused
Teeline is hard.
is a mouse a motion controller?
my Teeline book arrived.
I know only I care about this but, honestly… I am enjoying the shit out of writing Denounent. I look forward to posting the next part on the webites but when it comes time to edit the finished draft Im going to have a lot fo work to do. Its raw as fuck. I really am having a blast writing it though
Subscribed to Barbarella comic book. yay. excited!
dwm is nice. Im sure ill get bored and got back to BSPWM eventually but for now, im totally onboard
I finally updated my owncast… now i hope people will stop shouting at me
I can confirm that Seahorses are in fact not fictional.
music on - Tea Made - Vim open - To the writing hole I go
I sometimes wonder how frequently one is supposed to post to a blog. Or a micro blog for that matter.
This Thinkpad keyboard im messing with REALLY does have THE BEST track point i have ever used
Back on DWM for a bit
I watched Barberella last night. Such a GREAT movie!
okay, this little thinkpad keyboard is actually pretty nice once you start typing rapidly on it. feel like dancing
Today im trying out Goyo and Limelight in Vim. Seem to be actually pretty helpful when using vim for words not code
Lamy pen arrived. writes nice. Website indicated its aimed at kids… not sure how i feel about that
Good night all
I recently read a quote by JMS, “The more important the emotion is, the fewer words required to express it.” I sort of live that.
Went out today. Coventry is a strange place that I adore! Anyway, got home, made a video. Now time to some Vim time logged. Because thats what i like to do
Today learned about => https://github.com/po5/mpv_sponsorblock.git and it glorious!
Am at my PC. I like it here. No dog distracting me as it went back to its owner
My brain was just like, you should stream if no-one is coming to watch things with you. Then i realed im just in Vim working on the writing. Do people do writing streams? Maybe I could be the first person boring enough to try it!
My friends are late. Will I have to watch star trek alone now?
my good friend Oli is streaming =>https://live.oliviamaia.net/
I just put a bunch of new books on my kindle. I like it having all the books i may ever want to read, just on my kindle ready. Some people treat their ereaders like shelves. I treat mine like a library.
failed top post as promised. its all written. I jusst need to give it another pass, but I want to sleep.
Okay, Denouement4 should be posted in about an hour… writing hard!
Watched new He-Man show on netflix. I have mixed feelings. literally my whole opinions hinges on what happens in part 2. Threre are two ways it could go. one is good AF and one is dumb. Ill keep you posted
I’m actually really proud of some the things I have written of late. I feel like I have levelled up
I hope the SteamDeck results in more attention to linux as a platform, or Proton at least but I think its going to tank like every other bit of hardware that valve have thought up. I hope im wrong but its use case confuses me. If I want to play games on the go, the Switch exists. Or i can use a controller with my phone, I can even stream games to my phone via any one of a bunch of streaming services. Im not sure why a steamdeck would be better. I was hoping that Valve would have made a thin clinet that just streamed games on the go. Like.. you know.. a phone
had a nice evening again watching star trek with buddies and then playing minecraft dungeons. Sadly didnt find time to do any writing, well thats not true. I DID do some writing but it was just a quick blog post. Didnt work on the book
hello, this is a demo of this for the stream
Streaming over on => http://tv.hexdsl.co.uk
ATTENTION whomever sent me a kick arse screwdriver from my amazon wish list THANK YOU its fucking awesome! There was not note in the box
Morning internet
i see a lot about way to keep tea-bags fresh. Im pretty sure its nonsense. My tea-bags are in an open pile on my desk right now. been there since thursday. tastes exactly the same. People have the strangest converns
Posted the first chapter of my science fiction thing yesterday. No feedback yet. not sure if thats good or bad… so I’ll just keep writing i guess.
written enough of my sci-fi to start posting chapters in the next few days. I hope people give a shit :D
Having thoughts about Subscriptions, may make a video
Its interesting to be how many comments on my recent Debian video act like im being a hipster and will be back on Arch in a few months. When I switched to Arch years ago people were telling me how i would be back on Ubuntu in a few months, how times have changes!
First post from debian
The prison cells in Star trek are energy shields. In the event of a power cut all the prisoners are going to escape. Energy shields for prison calls are a stupid idea. Also, star trek shouldnt have prison cells. we should be past that. really.

I am not going to ask people if they like Star Trek when I frist meet them to save time. If they so NO I can just walk off and not waste any more time…. could make job interviews more interesting too
Have to go to bed now because of stupid work tomorrow. Had have a nice evening. Wathed star trek with a friend and then worked on Hunters Garden post of hours. Feels like im almost done and its so exciting. The next project is already floating about my head
The older i get the more i like 90s star trek. Is this a thing? Should it be getting more dated not more enjoyable?
Think im going to remove Pleroma from my VPS, I have tried so hard to get ‘into’ the Fedi, but in the end I so much happier talking ot mostly myself here.
Server had some issues today, I finally loaded Debian on it. It was gret. Debian is the tits! After that I put it on my second PC, next time i have to reload im going Debian in all the places. Debian has a nice installer, sensible defaults and is not a wanker about stuff. Debian is my new best friend
it has recently come to my attention tht some pople whom I had considered friends do not like the classic game “Paperboy” as such, I will be throwing news papers through their windows every morning for the foreseable future
Played Supraland today. 4 Hours in. I think I have had enough of it. May uninstall
I think it maybe time to make a LACE web-gui
watching Star Trek - the original. it maybe peak culture!
Finished Biomutant, it was a good game that i enjoyed a LOT but Its a shame that there were some cracks in the design that overshadowed a lot of the joy
Just posted to the gemini. Some book club action

Been working on getting CoC set up in NeoVim, even got it to play nice with smart-tabbing and turn its self off when i load MD or MAIL type files… gosh, I do love me some vim!
@frrobert oooooo
Did you watch this weeks Trendy Talk? https://youtu.be/1nQ0Hgb0txE
Something I have learned today is that C is actually really confusing and sometimes things dont make any sense to me but work anyway…. for “Reasons” I guess :/
removed the ASCII art from my page header. I see too much ASCII on gemini. I think it looks cleaner without it anyway.
had a nice time with my terrible C learnings again. good times C
Im no longer removing bot-spam in youtube comments. feels like im doing googles job for them. fuck them. they can delete their own bot-spam.
Everyone I know loved the Expanse. I didnt enjoy what i saw. Not sure if i should give it another go or its just not for me.
watching first episode of star trek voyager. Its actually pretty good.
I am currently enjoying this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ci1PJexnfNE
Wonder if anyone read my recent post

I actually do kinda hate the BBC… for the record
There is another Trendy Talk birthed to the world.
Stay Punk Fuckers!
Sneaky biscuits
Best conversations… i have them
Been playing some Splatoon2 with friend HangMansJoe. Splatoon2 is great but its strange that Nintendo never put any more development into it. Not sure we need Splatoon3 when Splatoon could just get some patches.. also WHY isnt it free to play yet
Burn the web
Wrote a post about Loop Hero. No Im going to play Loop Hero. Then dream about Loop Hero. maybe I AM THE LOOP HERO
Not even joking at this point, i honestly think Swatch Internet Time is better than, you know, time
I LOVE LOOP HERO.
If you must ride a fucking horse please do so in a field. unless your fuckning horse pays road tax and you have a horse-driving-license.
HAMBURGERS ARE NOT LIKE GEMINI, THIS IS THE REASON I HATE THEM
Sometimes, I say stupid shit. People do that some times.
Between Ratmen game an Ys game, I have no time for new game. So no videos made in last few days. Ill fix that tomorrow, maybe
Im having a nice day.
Im basically a highly functioning Dog.
I posted a sort of rant to my gemini pod and website today. Not really sure what the point was or the value was. I half hope that no one reads it… I had a nice time thinking through it and writing it out.
Just got up, Want to write something. No idea what words to tap out. Wonder why im in a writing mood. Blog time, i guess.
this is a test post. for a youtube video.
Another GREAT evening playing Vermintide 2. shockingly fun that game is
the logo on Blue mics makes it look like its called Bhie
Side note, just updated my server. For first time this year? lol. Im bad at having a server. :D
I streamed some Vermintide 2 last night. I didnt really enjoy streaming at all. I think it maybe time i accept that i just do not like it and stop. like… properly stop
Still enjoing the fuck out of Vermintide 2. thanks GFN
I tried making a YouTube Short it was shit. I hated it. I will not be going tha tagain. Literally shit tic-tocerised version of actual content made me feel dirty making it.
Switched to a Snowball mic, the yeti has too many dials
re-watching Veronica Mars. That show is insanely fucking great. HARD recommend
Had a great evening messing with and reading gemini. Gosh, i do love gemini
So, Gemini… its just Teletext right.
I cant help but think that mario golf on the switch will eat, literally all my time.
The gemini-micro-loggers are talking about pretty folowers. Pretties flowers are orchids FYI.
THIS IS A TEST FOR THE PODOCAST THINGY!
People need to stop telling me how I should put more effort into my videos. Low effort is like my fucking brand you dicks.
apparently I can replace with and now I don’t needs to escape !s or "s
the word “Prove” is spelled “Proofed” in my head
I have 3 scripts, gemtoot, webtoot and alltoot. With these I can direct my toots to the correct places. Good job me
Had an email this morning, made me have some thoughts… Time to bring Nanologging to the web i think… scurries off to mess with scripts
I got a “Fabric Shaver” Today, Its a kind of electric shaver that shaved the bobbles off of clothes. I know, Science fiction shit right? Well, its fucking great. Got a hoodie that had underarm and inner-hood bobbling, I hated the look, made it look old and used. Well, the Fabric-Shaving-De-Bobbling-Thing made it look fucking awesome again and I could not be happier. Why isn’t this a standard part of garment care for everyone? (Actually, maybe it is and I have been out of the loop.) It was £18.99 which seems excessive but damn, does a great job! It’s even USB chargeable. Such excitement!
if the word extra implies more of something. then an extra-small shirt must me larger than a small shirt.
Finished Ys-Viii and it was FANTASTIC!
Got locked in my bedroom day. Had to piss out of the window…. true story
Quake 2 is over rated. Fight me!
My Dell 3780 laptop is toxic to linux. it basically wont boot linux BY DESIGN. I finally have (gulp) windows booting on it and its shocking. how to people work like this? Anyway, i plan on getting that WSL stuff set up this evening to effectively use as little windows as im able to
Sometimes i get sad, Thats not a joke or anything, just thought i would share that
I do not have a Terminal theme, idiots!
I love you.
