Defrag World Cup 2021 concluded a few weeks ago, and was a really good event! There were some pretty spicy runs. I wanted to rewatch some of the round coverage so I built the table of youtube and twitch links below. (Note that w00deh and ZERGTV also covered the cup but for the Russian-speaking audience).
Standard content warning for Quake videos: flashing lights, disorienting gameplay that may cause motion sickness.

Uh oh my headphone cable is starting to fail
After avoiding it for years I've finally published my dotfiles. There's a mixture of shell scripts and configuration files in there, most of which is (I hope) explained by the README.
The image nearby is a recent screenshot of my desktop. The background / wallpaper & character art pictured are from the old eroge visual novel Divi-Dead (which I played way back in high school and have been using artwork from for backgrounds ever since).
A few points of interest, things I'm happy with:
I'll be adding more to the repo soon(ish), probably starting with my audio file management scripts.

Thinking about that time Warren G, Nate Dogg, Brian Eno, David Byrne, and Herb Alpert all hung out

Now I can relax, watch tonight's ep of Critical Role, and play q3 defrag (with a not-very-good mouse).
Breaks and electro in the high 120s, some smooth and polite, some jittery and a little menacing. This mix features a couple new tracks by Audioelectronic (as remixed by Single Cell Orchestra & released on Resource Records) and Rugon (on Brokntoys).
This mix is no longer available for download from this website. It is however available at mixcloud.

Awake at 9 PM, asleep at around noon or 1 PM, non-24 sleep schedule (and/or disorder) strikes again.
It's quiet and I'm getting a lot done, which is nice.

Cleaning and fixing up my dotfiles tonight. I'd like to publish them soon; I've tried before but perfectionism has always gotten in the way.

Came upon this while clearing my inbox of bandcamp emails
The Wee DJs (AKA Being, AKA Dave Paton) absolutely wrecking pop tunes. It's both great and terrible. It's so damn funny, I can't stop laughing at it.

I've never really had content ("content") to work with but now that I do website design stuff is kinda fun. And I like static site compilers a lot.
