I should go back to bed.

This is a daily post for “casual” conversation. If you want to post or talk about something non autism related this is where to do it. For example if you want to info dump about your special interest but it doesn’t fall into “autism related” then you can post it here in the comments. All other rules are still active, be respectful to each other.

My sleep is boooorked lately but I’m strangely okay with it. Maybe because it’s summer where I am.

Also I’ve been getting super into my modded 3DS lately to the point I’ve put down my switch, mostly for being able to make it do things like stream Portal 2 via Moonlight lol. (I’m always thinking “can it run DOOM?” But for Moonlight/Sunshine streaming, I may one day try it on the dryer). I also want to figure out Tailscale better so I can stream when I’m outside the house. I think it miiiight tie in to my Linux obsession, maybe. FOSS all day every day 😎

As always thanks for making an infodump-friendly space! It’s nice to have an outlet with like-minded folks.

Ohhhh I'm super into my 3DS again, too! Such a great and versatile console. I've been thinking about learning how to develop simple sprite-based Game Boy games for fun
