  • Sleep, wait until the end. Just keep mostly going as usual, I won’t care about anything afterwards.

    Only difference, I’d donate all my money. Perhaps, I’d try to get one of those smaller loans some banks offer instantly (without giving a reason) and donate that too. Not sure if mine does that as well.

    But perhaps if I wasn’t a coward and nobody knew I was going to die anyway, I’d attempt to commit suicide for statistical reasons.

    Makes me think about time travel again, because in this case the event could be caused by the time travel. I mean, the traveller goes back in time to cause an event that already happened. Perhaps that’s the only reason why I was going to die.
    Could it work this way?
    Oh, wait, that’s how it was in Interstellar, no? If you travel to the past you can only do things that cause you to travel to the past and do the exact same things.
    Huh…

    I am getting off-topic.







  • For me it was the opposite. Whenever I tried some game and I didn’t have luck it got boring. But passing it with god-power cheats was fun. Hell, I had most fun with GTA-SA after going through the game with cheats and then blowing up everything and everyone and spawning random vehicles to either use or blow up as well.

    I probably spent the most time with train and planes. Also I think car mods, I don’t remember it that well anymore. Yeah, I think there was that mod garage near train station, definitely. That was a lof of fun too.

    For me, cheats made 95% of the fun.



  • A bit unrelated, but if you have DD-WRT on WiFi router with USB, you can install Entware. There’s also a few games.

    I used to play Tetris (vitetris) on my old WiFi router. I also tried to compile doom_ascii for MIPS, but I wasn’t successful and gave up. That was 5 months ago, so I basically forgot everything I tried already.
    I have also tried to compile it directly on the WiFi router, but it kept crashing even when I killed all running services (including SSH and Telnet so I had to use console, at least it’s 115,200 baud) that weren’t necessary. I think 32MB of RAM was my problem.
    Anyway, I doubt it would run on it anyway, but at least I tried.

    List of games available (at least for MIPS): angband, cavezofphear, crawl, gnuchess, minesweep-rs, nethack, rcon, sudoku-tui, superstartrek, tty-solitaire, vitetris, zork.

    Edit: Hmm, it seems at least very few Netgear switches may be supported by OpenWRT (e.g.: https://openwrt.org/toh/netgear/gs308t_1). Maybe there is potential to actually play games on that switch!





  • Sort of, but in a bad way.

    Anyway, this year we even omitted that tree, so I didn’t have to bother with that.

    Specifically today? It’s 2AM, not much went on, just doing my things, thankfully nothing related to Christmas.
    I sent my cash too late so I ran out of Mullvad time. I paid for a week of IVPN and the setup didn’t fair too well.
    “Bypass VPN for local networks” in their app on Android doesn’t work, so I lost ability to use KDE Connect for now.
    On laptop I just used plain WG with NetworkManager on Plasma. It seems to not accept anything but 0.0.0.0/0 in AllowedIPs which is something I’ve been screwing around with for a while until I found someone else from a year ago with the same issue. I even tried 0.0.0.0/1, 128.0.0.0/1 rather than the larger calculated list, bug to no avail. It just doesn’t work.
    I guess I’ll just use OpenVPN on Android. The second doesn’t seem to matter much.

    I am also trying to figure out whether what I’ve found is infinite unthrottled (almost) free mobile data glitch with T-Mobile, or some kind of sorcery I missed in their documentation.
