• kinda forgot about these, but whatever

2025-06-11 12:49AM

• still not sure about the source of some files,,, I'll have to find a way to share them and a way to contact me ;w; tbh I just wanna share the whole folders and everything around, but it's way too much,,, No one has ever shared their server with me, no one has offered to take up the task, so I can't even 'properly' archive this stuff; I take it you're not interested in the many files I couldn't find a source for, you don't care, right? Don't come to me and offer after they're gone, it's not long before I get tired of everything and remove them without checking. One of the reasons I have made lists of the filenames is in case I remove the files (that I've not done yet) because I might aswell do it if no one wants them, y'know that right
• Can't wait until I become a 'piece of puzzle' someday :3 just a random forgotten webserver that happens to have the file you were looking for, around so many others that you didn't even think about. During my research, looking for sources by searching for their filenames, quite a few places turned out to be like that, so many forums too. Some websites just happened to mention the filename with some install guide, along with their actual name; a good number of them was a certain software redistribution platform that mentions the filename on the software webpage and I love that it does, I wish more did the same. Some even offered the files I was looking for as attachments, but almost all of them require registration for it, because of course. Kinda bad they're also non-english, and I cba to register to every random forum I come across, I'm not that desperate currently. It's possible the files I couldn't find on the internet anymore could still be found under different names or have better alternatives, but I don't know what those are or what they're called and there's way too many to be doing it manually individually for every single one of them. You may figure it out yourselves, I think I've done enough already
• I kinda wonder when did I start sorting these out, because I know I started downloading in like 2015 or 2016, maybe even earlier than that; not that it matters much tho

• Now I understand perfectly why things just disappear sometimes, they're removed without caring about their contents. For example, I could've removed every seemingly pointless thing I have, for free space when I needed it, but I didn't do it; some of the things I'm looking into are unavailable on the internet anywhere I looked at. I'm still going to get rid of most of this stuff, but only after I make sure I can get it from somewhere again
• Anyway, unrelated to any of this, I'm trying my way at a search box, but it only applies to a specific JSON file paramater value things. I don't know how it's gonna look like, or what it's gonna do, but that's what I wanna do at least. We'll see how it goes. Need a way of displaying the info I have, better than looking at it as an incomplete csv

• I noticed that a part of the reason why I never finished the "soft(ware) list(ing)" thing seems to be because there's so much redundancy and duplicate files all over the text files, and I can't get my way around them. It sure was even more difficult without tools like 'grep' and sorting with removing duplicate lines (Don't know what I would've done without these linux tools ;w; ). Also, the text files are huge and contain lots of different types of files. They're basically file-listings of a root folder that contains folders and folders and folders. It's a mess that I'd like to kinda clean up after, maybe there's some useful, lost media around there, who knows. So, I decided to split the text files and remove duplicates from the same text files. I think I used to want them sorted by the "modified date" or whatever, but that's just gonna make things so difficult, especially since I removed the extra info (modified date and file size, what you get by doing 'dir /od' in a folder) from listing,,, I'm still "sorting" them in a way, just not by "last modified" or "name", just randomly lol
• So, anyway, when will this be done? I'm not sure,,, I'm gonna stick to my plan and only publish text files or webpages with links, but not the files themselves (unless they're unavailable anywhere I looked; there's quite a few like that)
• Other than that, I'm happy to get this done, at least in some way ;w; I've been waiting for some part of me to get this done, in any way, for the past 10 years (yes, that's how old the earliest point in time I started doing this is). back then I wanted to add so much information about every file, but over time, from 500 files (even that is too many) it became uncountable, I'd guess it's like 5000 files, maybe more, all kinds of types; I'm not gonna be adding any additional information to any of those, all you get is some "best effort source URLs" and that's about it. I also wanted to add icons, but tbh I'm not gonna be installing every single thing anymore,,, I just wanna get it done in some way, please ;w;

• ok, y'know what, I give up trying to make that video idea into a thing, it'd take too long. I have converted coordinates into a map, and it actually works. The problem is trying to connect the things together, I ain't doing any of that; I'll try to at least share what I got, it's just a JSON file that you'll import into a website. There's like 2000 items, so it might take a bit to load
• Anyway, other than that, I made another homepage, and replaced the one that was there with this one, it's a bit too simple for my liking, but I hope it leads to be less confusing than whatever I had before, lol

2025-06-02 9:04AM

• well then, I'm still not ready for that,,,
• still thinking about it and I'm trying to look through files upon files from many different places ;w;
  I feel like I should've done this much (much, much) earlier, maybe several years earlier
  But anyway, I'm trying, and that's all that matters ^^
• Other than that, I'll have to make a better first 'homepage' file, once again ;w; I lost count to however many 'homepage' files I made, lol,,,

• soon I'll have to upload pretty much everything I have onto somewhere,,, I don't even know where to start ;w; Now I hope the internet archive allows vidoes (several of them) and zip-archives and some other things
  I may have to zip-up all the images I saved along the years,,, I don't think I'm gonna bother trying to source them (at some point I wanted to, but they got too many, so I just gave up), but I'll keep them in their folders; you'll figure it out. For software, it's gonna be just filenames and some URLs after them,,, for the most part (I wanted to source them too, but it's quite difficult ;w; ) ; now I kinda do have to make some index files for all of them,,, For games, it's also just filenames, mostly; I might try to source some of them but I can't guarantee. The GTA mods will also be just filenames, but some of them are impossible to find, so I'll tr y to upload a few of those. I already shared my messy archives of SMW modifications to someone more knowledgeable some time ago, so it's not a problem there. The images I saved are from several different years from "different me"s, I'm not responsible for any of their actions. Anything else I'm not yet sure at the moment, there's also fonts, ukgk, cursors, music, and photos. Also, the photos, I might just zip-up photos of cats and the environment; fun fact, I use to be into photographing some years ago :3 Most of the knowledge has faded, but some is still there. And screenshots, I won't zip-up anything personal, not gonna share an archive of the whole folders of images ^^ the same goes for the other folders too
• Other than that, I'd like some help with irl, but it always feels like I'm talking to the void, so whatever, might as well try
  I'll edit this text with a link to a Forms thing to ask me things (and where to expect the answers, if chosen to be public, but I may write the same things in the Forms thing itself), but until then you've got this sentence instead ^^

• bit less updates from now on because my internet disconnects constantly and I really don't like what's been happening around
• I'll do the few webpages that I wanted to do (that doesn't lead anywhere at this time) and try to piece myself together yet again, for I-don't-know-how-many^th time,,, Worries have been clouding my thoughts and make me think of doing bad to myself, I don't wanna do any of that ;w;
  There's also some other webpages and lists that I wanted to do, and I'll do them anyway, even tho they'll take longer
• Anyway, yea, I'm sorry, I wish I could do things better,,,
• Something somewhat good is that I made myself a "playlist" of game music, and currently it has around 200 songs in it :3 (someone else has like 7000 in theirs, I don't think I can get that many, knowing how picky I can get with these things >w< ) and "playlist" because it's basically a bunch of unsorted mp3s from many different albums thrown all in a single folder. The whole thing is 1GB and some hundreds of MBs, I'm not sure where to make it available yet, but I'll try to find some way to do it, somehow; or at least make a list of all of them into a webpage :3
• still haven't installed the VM and I have to 'publish' this in a roundabout way yet again, I enjoy it so much ;w; (at least it works, y'know, slowly but it works)

(2025-05-18 10:21PM)

• I got access back to the old website, that means I can update it again :3 maybe I don't need to remove the links to it now, but whatever, anyway
  I still need to fix up the /aboutme/ webpages, make up the nyan para one (once again) in /vgr/ at "tsf", _and_ make the hiscores and other webpages there already, please ;w;
  Blame my internet for disconnecting and not being able to do anything, I don't even know how to fix it,,,

2025-05-18 12:39AM

• I also don't have a working VM at this time, so it's quite difficult to do what I used to do on Linux ;w;
• also, for some reason, the liveUSB I'm using keeps changing between reboots and stops working properly, I don't know what's up with it,,, I'll try to reinstall it in the USB, but I doubt it'll change much, maybe I have to replace the whole USB again ;w;
• also also, my internet constantly disconnecting isn't really helpful, and nothing I tried has fixed anything, I'll have to replace the router itself,,,

(2025-05-17 11:20PM)

• well then, one of my old websites is gone, or at least my way of entry to it. On short, I can't update it anymore, so,,, I got some links to remove, I don't like doing that ;w; I think I'll try to link to my old github website and make a webpage in it and link to that, with everything I can think of would be useful, that could be better than having at least 4 different websites all with different things
• And also, the email I had listed in the old contact webpage also stopped working, and I wasn't told anything about it, one day just "poof, gone"; I was told that inactive accounts would be removed and that mine wasn't one of them, well then, maybe it was,,, anyway
  tbh, I never received anything on it, at least not without me asking for it (but still, I don't even know if I saved anything from what I asked for, so,,, ops), so anyway, this summer I'll try to setup a contact form and actually make it work this time :3 I'll try to make a disguised goog form inside a webpage of mine, and provide a link to the original. I'm gonna do one for private things, and one for public things (the latter will work as a guestbook)

(2025-05-09 9:36AM)

• is it also gonna take another month to continue doing the things? it seems most likely ;w;
  stuck trying to list my highscores on a webpage, and some other lists for my fav games and what I played on stream and whatnot, but I'd like to stream the process of making the webpage to show the thinking behind it (or something like that). but I can't do that currently because we don't really have clean water until a few days later, and this stupid delay has happened every single time we don't have water,,,
• anyway, yea, multiple factors keeping me behind ;w;

2025-04

(2025-04-28 06:48PM)

• I did it :3 did it really take me an entire month to even get started ;w; well then, now I have to remember what else I wanted to talk about,,, We may see once we get there ^^
• The web browser extensions work, but I had to do a roundabout way to get this text to show here (upload the webpage and whatnot),,, I'll have to find my way through VMs once again, yayyy! because there's no way I'm learning how to do these in Windows, no-no :3 In windows I'm not able to save text files in UTF-8 encoding, and it also has an extra line-break markup compared to linux (in Windows is CRLF, linux is LF). For a normal person, none of this really matters that much (the text is gonna be displayed the same exact way, or well, it should be), we're talking a few bytes or kilobytes difference, but I'm far from a normal person ;w; Anyway, once I'm in the VMs, I'll have to figure out how to make a tutorial for everything I'm gonna do,,, but I'm not gonna provide any links to ISOs (you'll have to find them yourself, I may tell you what to look for at least) but I'll try to talk about what to do after, including VCredists and dotNET because these things always seem to be the solution to some dll errors. Not sure if DirectX is gonna be of any use inside of a VM, but I'll try it too anyway. I'll also have to get the 'classic theme' again,,, and that was for Windows; for Linux everyone is gonna be different most likely, but I'll try to make it work at least on Debian-based, which is what I use, and include Wine and some other things maybe. Not sure if any of that is needed since we're gonna have an actual Windows VM, so we maybe don't need Wine at all, we can just use the Windows VM, but whatever
• Other than that, the most important thing I wanted to check, p2dfx works, that's all ^^ Windowed Mode is a bit weird and doesn't work properly for whatever reason, and it makes the game crash unless I remove some setting file, but I may see how to fix that
• Gonna be doing some test streams and talk in one of these days in the week, to remind me about the VODs, and make a stream layout because I doubt it's compatible (even if it is, I kinda need a new one), and maybe talk about my silly computer setups and what I had to go through to make these work well ;w; I hope I can remember to try to make a webpage about these along the way ^^
• There's also the games I played on stream webpage, and some other webpages related to it,,, I'll have to figure out what should I do for the landing webpages,,, and also the twitch VODs, and maybe some other things too,,, There's so many things to do, yet so little time,,, If you can, please get me out of here, and offer me something to get these done ;w; The stupid things from beginning of year and before it (for what feels like 2+ years) have never stopped happening, it's just that I try not to think of it much, because there's really nothing I can do to help the situation (better not to think of it at all, I'm depressed enough already), I can only help myself with the little I have,,, so yea, that's why I tell to get me out of here, I could at least have one less thing to worry about ^^ Anyway, please don't take this too seriously, at least for now
• edit from later: wrote all above from another device, and I'm now rewriting it still on the old linux install because I don't have a VM ready yet, ops,,, still gonna do a test stream regardless :3

2025-04-11 09:41AM

• couldn't do anything today because of a powercut for the whole day, including the night, again. but at least it wasn't just me, every Internet thing I tried to somehow access during then wasn't available, so idk. Still shouldn't happen, anyway
• Also, there's gonna be one of those in a few days, so I really can't do anything I planned until after that day, alright thanks (NOT)
• Other than that, still not done with the things ;w; I have to remember how I used to access the BIOS in this thing, and I can't look at the text it produces after it boots because it goes way too fast,,, We'll see how it goes. I never thought it'd take me such a long time to be somewhat done with the things, holly molly, please let me do the things already ;w;

2025-04-10 05:52AM

• y'know, for some reason, twitta things keep breaking for me, recently I can't access messages anymore, and I don't know how much time it's been like that, so I'll have to make up some webpage(s) so you can know how and where to message me at. and hopefully I can actually edit the twitta bio this time, because all this time I've not been able to,,,
• Compared to previously: I got the HDD adapter thing and it works! very surprising to me, it just works; I plugged in the things and it just works, I was not expecting that. Anyway, for some reason, the seemingly slow SSD on that laptop was plugged into the wrong thing; the laptop has 2 SATA ports, one had a big opening for CD/DVD (remember those?) and the other had a little one for a SATA HDD. I had to take out the HDD because of some clicking noises, that seem to have disappeared when I plugged it into the HDD adapter thing, but anyway, back to story; so, I took it out, it has empty space there. I took out the CD/DVD because no one uses those anymore, and instead of it I got one of those deck things that you fit the SSD into it and plug into the CD/DVD place. It worked, but made the laptop freezeeeeee so many times,,, I wanted the adapter to plug into another spare HDD and reinstall Windows on it and use that instead, but I don't have to do any of that now; I took the SSD out of that thing and just plugged into the space for what used to be the HDD's, and it doesn't freeze anymore, I'm pretty surprised. it's all so sudden and I don't even know where to even begin what I wanna do ;w;
• So, anyway, all videos have been got onto the youtube channel and I'll have to properly name them (currently, their title is the filename, which itself is part of the URL filename; made it easier for me to figure out what's there and what not). around 400 videos in total and less than 10 days left until I have to delete the originals,,, I don't have space for the whole 600 GB of whatever it is, and I'm alright with having a 'lower' quality of them on youtube, so it doesn't matter much. I would still like to keep the GTASA replays original video(s) and whatever else 'clips' I can find from them, so that I can actually make a video out of them again ^^
  And actually make the video I had in plans for quite a few months at this point ;w; I kinda hope and hope not that someone else took a hand at it before me,,, I have an idea to include lesser seen areas around those places too, and explore the surroundings; but idk, I need more time, more setup, more knowledge >w<
• For the playlist flash things, I kinda forgot about it, but I know what to do with it, and maybe the shell and a few other things
• to make things difficult for myself, I thought about setting up some kind of 'theming' system to my webpages, currently it only works on the HTML/CSS/JS tests index webpage, and I think I'm gonna keep it at that. The way I made it work is with some colour javascript library, I used that as a base for a webpage in which I put all the colours from that webpage and shifted the hue around, then I copied the results. Takes a long time for me to explain myself, and even then I'm pretty sure I didn't do so well at it ;w; this is why I don't talk about what I'm doing, I just do it and then show it,,, some of my things just speak for themselves >w< (or at least they should, cuz I ain't the one doing the talking, nah fam :3 )
• Unrelated to this, I wanna set up 'landing' webpages from the other places I can be found at, so for example, if you're on my github page, I can link to a webpage that is specific to what I do on github, and a link to an index of the other 'landing' webpages. I feel like with how 'all over the place' I am, and how much of a difference there is between all the places, making separate webpages for them could be a good idea ^^ Just have to think more about it ;w;
• also I still can't really know how what I wrote looks like on the website, so I can only hope it looks good ;w; please, host, switch the PC to windows so I can maybe hopefully make things work again,,, and yea, it's the host's PC, not mine, it's a convoluted story I think,,, I'm but just a part of their mind,,, anyway, best I can say for now is to not worry much about it, because not even I fully know ^^
