wlm can't work on Windows 10 so I decided to use webescargot instead

It most definitely does work on Windows 10. I've used it. I have it on my Win11 box too, just logged in to check.

EDIT: I don't really log into escargot anymore though. I'm too awkward to chat lol

I also have a CRT, as well as a record player and cassette deck, plugged into my daily driver.

A cramped but beautiful sight!

I do enjoy game dev/design. While I don't have anything super fancy released, I do have an itch.io page with a prototype and a game jam entry, as well as a project on my Github with another prototype (a Zelda-like, Project Ki aka Tales of Kingsgrave; the full source and graphics are available to dow...

Quoting a post and writing "^ this" adds just as little to the conversation You make a valid point, and I'm definitely guilty of doing this, and have done it once or twice here on the forum as well. i mean in real life conversations people usually just nod or say something along the lines...

reacting to posts is what is so wrong about modern social media platforms Why do you think that it's inherently bad? It feels like a cop out. Instead of engaging in any conversation, you just thumbs up someone and move on. It doesn't add anything to a conversation if you just have someone give you ...

Can't say I've heard of Solarpunk as a musical genre, only as a visual aesthetic, literary theme, and hope for the future of society haha

The [s]strikethrough[/s] tag also seems to not be a default, and is a nice text formatting tool to have, especially for transparent editing, which I'm personally a fan of.

Understandable, but it's also specifically for a niche group of web developers that are trying to avoid overuse of Web2 functionality.

I'm not entirely sure if I've actually listened to the music so I'll have to take a peek sometime this weekend. However, I love the vapourwave aesthetic (the purples, pinks, and greens or w/e), along with the retro stylings. I'll update my response upon listening to the music (I'm at school currentl...

Can you elaborate on the MFA/KeePass thing? Some services requiring 2FA/MFA may shoehorn you to using a specific app (i.e. Google Authenticator) KeePassXC (not KeePass, though they use the same file format) can use "Time-based one-time code" 2FA, where you're given some long code at the s...

Most things I do, I may have music going. Though this depends on the time of day and my mood. One thing I don't do anymore is listen to music just to listen to music. I honestly think I want to transition to just listening to music (intentionally) for the sake of music. The last time I just put a ne...

For me, a lot of my inspiration comes from my brain being like "HEY, YOU KNOW WHAT WOULD BE NICE? THIS UGLY THING" and I get a vague image of what I want to draw or sprite in my head. 3 out of every 2 times, it comes out looking nothing like what my brain had in mind. Though, for writing, ...

I've started reading Neuromancer by William Gibson. The format of writing is a bit different from what I'm used to (high fantasy, like Sword of Truth and Wheel of Time), but I like it. I also have been meaning to finish 1984 but I haven't yet. Otherwise, I am near the beginning of book 6 in the Whee...
