the normal flavors
not any more :(
the thing i used was this program that interfaces with google sheets and then i had a react native app that could talk to it : https://github.com/Filip-Kin/RightNow
in my apartment making the next video, mostly.
today specifically has been a little rough but i am doing some very fun things...
i've been getting off of the large online social universe. at this point, discord and signal are only on my phone. you should try DMing me or emailing me, if i know you.
you gotta look at every single thing they ever did, and read every word they wrote. and really get it in your head. then you can be anyone. who's jackson pollock?
most of them / none of them...
not really. i think i've heard it before though.
it's a bit over my head how so many systems are needed to operate a big Thing. i think it's good not to distribute unless you have a reason. for example of a small distributed system, paper clover dot net is made up of two server computers, and my mac.

i have some thoughts yeah.
like, really looked at them, with purpose
was it fun
i live in a place where the stars don't shine through the light pollution. so it's been a few years. i miss the stars, and i wonder if they look back down at me. well, i guess they cant see thru the light pollution either...
the last time was really fun though.
time is almost in the summer now.
people sometimes say this to me and i try to believe them.
this is true and i've seen it happen before. i've also been on the other side of it.
what if i crush u with huge squeeze...
most of my toxicity comes from happenings in my brain and then it rubs off on other people through conversation. also some times i fall in love and that seems to only ever be a disaster. it's hard to explain it exactly. all i can really say anymore is that i am really sorry and that i don't expect you to come back. please hug me.
that's why i said i didn't get it, but what is interesting is sometimes i end up doing that. i let myself get more free with my life, fixed gender. but then i decided to cut out a bunch of things in search of a simpler life. i even cut out my job. and then i cut out my fears of storing too many gigabytes for music video projects and being fearless (just want to share with the world through some form how it's 230GB of data and counting. at this rate it'll probably be 500 when it's done).
it's sort of a coincidence, i feel like this video is saying something similar to what happened here. but the bigger thing is: instead of it being told by a magic being, these are all things you notice long after they happen. life changes.
that's what i think went on this week. and then hard drives failed. but then they actually didn't. it's key to remember that things that happen might not have.
yeah those are pretty good
been good. i can now call these portions of the site "done". i even moved a ton of my old journal files into the private archive, deciding i wont go back to edit them (instead, focusing on newer journals, etc).
should be pretty obvious what's next: the new songs i said i wanted to make. maybe an album one day. overall, what's left is to add all the new stuff i haven't made. first, by making them. then, adding them.
it's important to remember. grounds us in a shared reality where we all contribute.
something i absolutely chase but i usually overdo it with people.
i don't get it
maybe it's the person reading this text.
yeah. i think so.
make it so everything loads today not tomorrow

since i don't know who you are, i'd have to say you're likely completely average in every aspect imaginable. that is because an unknown person is most likely, by definition, to be the average of all known people.
thrill
no but normally i have a same-person detector but it's currently offline. and i realized i sort of don't need to know who is who as long as i know who my friends are.
it has been asked before but before the current cutoff time, see 2021-02-05 00:03 and 2020-05-15 00:50 and 2019-07-15 03:31
it needs to be a longsword. but rather a special form of longsword where it can reach the heart of the sun. otherwise you're just deflecting the rays and not the source.
via a smooth vibe check.
yeah except for where it doesn't rain. and in those places, a water hose is a good weapon.
the only fields i have ever been to were in dreams. i was too busy admiring the colors in the scene to even think about the sizes of things. i was satisfied.
this looks close to the waterfalls melody but it's out of key. but no i'm no longer jealous of the seasons because i am now flying high above the sky.
you could also use a battery-less device like a mac studio.
not really a favorite one, but a pretty top tier one was them holding 4 blahaj at ikea.
sometimes you are left on 1% of battery remaining and it feels like you gotta do everything left in the world in that time. and then the battery dies and then you realize you can get a new one, but it still sucks.
more music videos
it's grounding
try not doing that maybe..
i don't know what you mean. nothing disappeared, everything i've ever made is on this website. or do you mean how i stopped using external web sites? if so yes that was very intentional.
thank you. i got myself a new computer, and i am surprised to say it took less than an hour to get the questions backend working. the downside is i refuse to install any code editor besides neovim.
2025-04-30 22:44 knows
they're so alone so they'll do anything just to see another magnet. though, never in a gay way.
the fact they work tbh.
i don't know i haven't really looked outside. it could be any kind of ages. i just know that my current life is somewhere there, perhaps. or like, i'm right at the end of them.

not really. apologies
3 to 5 weeks ago
i hold regular meetings with all versions of myself and it's usually pretty cheerful.
thank you
20 more hours today
yes
first trying to figure out how to do it on my own first but then maybe if we know each other well we could do something. give me some time tho ...
it will be located here once i finish the new site thing. check back in 2 days: file/2019/volar-visual-cover
i quit at the end of this week.
a nihgatmre taht neevr satrts
i think it's me
it's hard to know who my audience is since i do not track it and it is usually impossible to tell who is in my audience so i can't really answer with any statistics.
but i think the feeling is the general vibe of what us trans/nb/autistic/neurodivergent/etc people crate just feels cozier among other of us (i am grouping a lot of people into one big group i know). i've certainly noticed that a majority of my friends fit into one of those groups.
in the end it doesn't matter, the real group we want to look at is creative people. i think neurodivergence, or at least what i think i have, is sort of magic want that grants you creativity that a typical person would never even dare. shit like ignoring every god damn rule ever fuckin' imagined. and doing it by instinct, because our alternatives always suck sucks.
i hope that type of creativity + attraction to that creativity does exist outside of those spaces because i think most of those people end up going thru something so mindbendingly bad and the result of the lucky ones are the art we savor today. i sometimes think about if pain is how the most beautiful art is born.
sure. do it right now.
passes through
they are one way. you can only see the past on the screen. not the future on the camera.
video chat is a more of a two-way mirror. to be perfectly honest, a standard mirror is more so a two-way mirror.
maybe a little. it's a bit of both.
just one. it won't be hidden that much. but in in a week i'm going to make some changes to the site.
money
they knew how powerful we'd be together.
meow
i'm not sure what this is referring to but if it was the fact in 2025-04-18 21:40, this change in the site internals is a part of a large project i'm working on. it'll make sense soon.
no, because i'd have to upload it and currently my site's file handling is being almost fully rewritten.
i'll do you one better, i'll link to something i haven't shared OR uploaded. check back in 2 weeks for this to load:
probably because my full name includes "meow" which is so funny i couldn't bring myself to make it my legal name but i settled on the closest thing instead.
- the 5th item
- the items listed via dashes
- the best item
- items that are actually more lists
- items that are actually the same list
- the items without a nested list
- chocolate (any context. if chocolate is in the list)
- any item with "perchance" in it's description
- the first item
- the last item
hope you're doing okay pretty
you are loved too i hope you know that.
seems to be a girl for once.
i tend to think of it as the "usual behavior"
Ready?
it could happen one day.
sure but i'm also afraid of wasting every moment i've ever lived.

to electrify things that need electrification. for example, the electoral college has a lot of electricity. probably too much. we could downgrade it to a regular college.
they can be really meaningful
i've kept the same one since 2023-04-30. a gift i got from aya.
fever
i am. all your questions are now mine to answer.
there is a pattern, but there is a chance that the pattern is random.
thing fall down but it bounce back up. everything is travelling in a different direction.
probably that one episode of a tv show where they're trying to guess the count--- nope those weren't jelly beans. umm i think it would've been around 2021-- nope those weren't in a jar.
i don't think this has ever happened in my life.
it works for me. you may be one of the 10 banned users. it's okay, because i am looking for alternative chat platforms anyways. i've been using signal for personal contacts, and it's been amazing. so far my research shows that there isn't a good "public chat room" application besides discord.
it already is dead. we're all on our own!

if you are worried, get some anti lights to go along with the lights. that'll cancel out the brightness.
typical
not true.
i have not but looks cool. i remember when i was playing the original super mario bros that this mod went off of.
appreciation
i think it's great
whatever you want to make it mean
the truman show
yeah i wonder sometimes.
it depends on the measurement. as one example, it has a fewer amount of blown up titanic-visiting submarines.
i really do not think i have been on LRV3 before

depends on if your name is aya.
about the usual sin level of a standard relationship.
it's intended to mean a few things, which the viewer can then select and feel that meaning.
sure, if that's you want.
i get an average amount of questions, on average. you can see that for yourself.
no because this is my question page and also because you didn't provide your answer.
i just spoke with the department of galactical efficiency and found out that in 2006 these "moons" were reclassified as "dwarf moons"
sometimes the chance count can be infinite. sometimes it's zero. it depends deeply on the situation.
this is asked like a theoretical but i think about someone who was close to me and did something terrible. their second chance is to be given by someone else, not me.
no, but not being super ashamed of the fact it happened is. well, it depends on the bridge.
sunk cost fallacy, but also just do so many projects that people don't realize how many projects go unfinished or have been ongoing for years.
okay
shrimp. i've never really enjoyed it in the past 8 or so years but i used to enjoy it a lot.
burned some bridges one day and it's all fine everyone is fine. or at least i think i burned the bridges. idk, i have not looked back and it might be there. i am not going to check.
they are cool but i've never known what to print with one so i never bought one
yeah i would say so
feel like all the guys at the top are out to get me. like most people are. but it's okay because i don't need them anymore.
i was going to search online about the company and how it's doing now but i feel like my search ended after seeing the "people also ask" section on google having "Is Meta still a good company?" as the first option. scrolling down i see a reddit post claiming "Meta is a fraud of a company."
i don't really want to know what else they did. but the core is that they don't care about their user base. which is most technology companies.
they behave very well i truly recommend
you must have really enjoyed watching [Invalid Artifact Ref: @sometimes-i-time-travel]
i'm proud she's happy.
yes.
the last time i tried i "used it wrong and it didn't work" and i haven't tried it since. maybe.
hi asker of 2024-02-19 22:03 i miss you too.
maybe i'll keep the icon then. i was planning on changing the icon to something without trans colors soon.
maybe you should join the discord. but that's up to you.
i'm happy when i inspire people like that. really gotta get the site back to how it was before (i rebuilt the entire thing from scratch for 2025)
but the q+a page has become one of my favorite things i've ever done with my life. mostly the fact it's still up, with all the questions- well, still deep in reorganizing old media... i have all the questions and files, just have to organize the hyperlinks. the questions go back to around late 2019. here is one of the old ones from 2021
god i wish,, then i could do a music video per month instead of the current pace.
this stuff is good. i've been trying to vary the sounds i'm using in production and its all eye opening shit. i really like how tv room is doing that here.
i think first i need to be able to walk into the fashion store. like, as an absolute minimum baseline. then, the sky is the limit
you should be proud of future chloe instead. i am.
i'm not sure if that is something i've ever seen before. that's interesting. especially on "doesn't"- perhaps you aren't pronouncing the n't bit hard enough. like if you pronounce doesn't more like dozen and then more like "does n", and you say it softly. but even then this is silly because i feel like i would never heard "she does like it", because you can just say "she likes it" so this is like. what.
you should watch a different weather person who can. or predict the rainbows yourself.
yes. it's sort of a disorder of mine and many; i flirt with so many ideas, but i can't make time for everything. if you're curious how you get out of it, part of the game is just extreme mental force saying what ideas out of the swarm makes you smile. and then do them. but even then, i'm still in this state of things, but not as bad it was before.
this is not true
i feel like there's an answer to this and i feel like the answer is not "shout into the void for years" but that seems to be how it works online. to be honest i don't fully believe it myself, that it happened to me at all.
hygrocotton
youtube remains a very unsuitible place for anyone to put media on. instead, you can view media on my website. it has no ads, among many other features.
any word can mean whatever you want it to.
i've been recently getting coffee in the afternoon and tea late at night
love
i've been doing them in chunks, but i got hit by a question with an incredibly long answer about g is missing and it has like 8 links to behind the scenes files.
so really i just have to finish the archive project before i can continue the questions stuff. and that project is competing for time between the next song, the programming language project, and other life things. i'll eventually get it done.
yes.
it would've been interesting if that happened because i'm certain that one side would have black and blue uniforms, while the other had a white and gold camo pattern, and the war ending in a tie because when the winners returned home, no one could agree what color the uniforms and flags were.
but no, the next world war is scheduled for some other time.
i'm not sure because my amount of say in the world has stayed around the same, from before and after the move. though, i'm sure the percentage here much different than if you were on the north pole.
two days where i'm in bed half the time
because shadows have not been invented yet.
i don't. and it's a terrible condition. i solve this by brute force, but over the years i've learned how great voice recordings are. you can just snapshot a point in time, just like that. also, there are these pitch identification apps which can help identify the notes one by one.
Yeah sure if they want them, tell them to hit me up...
if you sleep too long or too short it ruins you. i'm a huge victim to the "too long" side of things. but if you sleep an exact correct amount of time, it helps. i also notice making that wake up time 7-9am and actually getting out of bed by then really helps.
can you buy everyone else cars
yes because i don't have a car.
what happened for me is i had coincidentally picked out the same name my mom would have picked had i been born a girl.
some but i don't want to talk too much about my family online. mostly positive, some negative. it's all right though.
just hearing my name does alot to someone
most of my friends are adults so i don't know if that's what you meant or not but they are all there.
my name was in a long line of other names. i think the next one in the list was amy. i remember i had a set of other names i wanted to try but i know i couldn't because i'd confuse myself with women i already knew, like ashley and vi and surely a ton of others. i also considered the names of every one of my characters and eventually stole chloe's identity because she really didn't fit into any of the plot lines and i was jealous of her name.
the thing about names is you just gotta meet yourself halfway at something you kind of like, because the second half is just foundation building with that name. after a while it feels natural and correct.
to be honest every time i do that i don't know what i want to see. but it's usually calming.
influenza the movie
it really is every day. new projects hopefully coming soon but theyre all racing each other and begging for my attention. here is some work i was doing with a guitar vst
they could be more similar than you think. but i notice how easy it is get online friends, so i've been trying to balance things out by getting some more offline friends and strengthen the friendships i have with my friends right now.
but which one did you do the first time
i don't remember but i think it was chloe.
i'm not sure because kendrick lamar's lyrics always go wayy above my head.
age
i could probably do both
maybe i could live in a box mansion and get the best of both worlds. would that be ok?
the answer to this question
i've never seen a movie on valentines day. if i would, i might want to see the truman show, but a valentines special.
maybe that's true. is being nice to people so they treat you nice back an evil thing?
you just have to remember to defend yourself when around people.
i miss college a little bit. not the part where i would've had to re-take calculus 2 or take whatever was after that, but all the silly stuff we did. when i deleted snapchat, i downloaded all my files and have a really good photo library (offline, ~120gb, it spans my entire life). i look back sometimes at us. it makes me smile. feel free to call my phone on weekends whenever, those are the best times to catch me.
probably a musical one. as they usually are.
to receive answers
cat would love this question. let me ask them.
they said "salmon!!" and i would agree
i did a lot of stuff in 2020 but those were behind my own closed doors
yes.
i use arch btw
mac os
no you're the waitee
they probably are different words
this is not a question. you should send the results to me and timmy
the standard starting dose
i'm not sure if i am capable of that at all, to be honest.
thanks for reminding me that the bot is still running. all it does is handle the /paint
command and generate a new discord role with the desired color. not much else to explain.
can i eat it?
i guess you could print it out and eat it up. that could be allowed.
i forgot to do so many things this month but i also did a bunch of very nice things this month. it is a bit scary how the time just flies these days.
the question council can decide this one.
keys/piano
walk or fly around, don't be scared. talk to people.
it's kind of hard for me to answer this reasonably because so many of my friendships and involvement in friend groups happened by accident. a couple months after moving, i sort of accidentally infiltrated a nearby university cs discord server, and ended up becoming very great friends with people there, to the point some assumed i actually went to the university.
they would probably be lying, but if it was true then yes.
it's pretty reasonable i would say.
let me see what i can do about it
just put yourself in the shoes of someone, and then realize that you can walk anywhere. but also realize everyone else is walking around too, and that it's more satisfying to walk around with friends.
not neccecarily, i went to CVS seems to be the highlight of that month. i also went to an art mueseum.
maybe you had a different life.
not neccecarily but i do recommend Zig as a language for writing software in which you are very concious about memory layout. as in, where the bytes are. it's very satysfying to get the memory work done right but it isnt the easiest to learn. just do it a bunch.
rust is also great but instead of thinking about memory layout, they have you think more so about ownership of a structure. they provide so many compiler checks to make sure you follow a very carefully crafted set of memory ownership rules.
havent read books in a long time. the internet is a great resource.
ideally, to connect with people.
maybe on the millionth page of results.
i'd been slowly playing around with the idea of acting as a female character in the storytelling/poem videos and there was something about it that felt so cool and so every so often i tried something. then i moved to my own apartment where i had complete privacy with myself, and from there i kept doing that but didn't think much of it. and then in may 2024 it hit me and i was like hollyyyy shit and then around august i realized the feelings truly went back to 2022 or maybe even earlier. i just had built a really good self defense layer to keep me from being sad about it, but that's gone now. but it's ok, since i am a girl now.
i recently used my non rpi device (NAS) at home to run a git server. it is much nicer to use than github, especially when you're connected directly to the network cable. though this wont be well on an rpi if you do not have a real hard drive on it.
you could run a dns server like https://pi-hole.net which has some fun stuff i set up on my local network. this thing is also specifically designed with rpi in mind.
probably a combination of reasonable quanities.
not strictly. i've used software that are sort of fake 8-bit because its not eight bits but just the classic sounds. if you go back to the 2017-2019 era i have a few music files that are worth viewing.
you can make the waves any size (i assume?) so it really gives you the power to make anything. it could be music, it could be other sounds. the limit does not exist.
there's different kinds of perfection, and different ways to survive. it really depends on what makes the "something" (perhaps "someone") happy.
a much, much more interesting job. i work at bun mostly because it's extremely interesting.
open and fuck around more often. i need to get better at this too.
i think the 30 because the only time i've been on it was an accident and i still got to the place i wanted to go.
what i notice happens alot in my song writing is the raw # of things may be dozens of minutes long, but it's vertical: theyre all ideas for the same part of the song. it's pretty hard for me right now to horizontally go past 4 minutes.
longer and cooler...what chloe wrote is good
Then bill does this thing called superchorus (not just bill but that's where i read it)
there's experiments you can do with instrumental parts, maybe sound effects, or put effects on your voice
You can put in a spoken part too, like a poem or a phone call
i think it would be interesting to combine two song projects where one has far too much written and one only has a line or two written.
not really a regular chord progression but the progression that the synths in mystery of life's second verse and chrous.
file/q+a/2022-04-26_synths.mp3
it's nice to have all of everything kind of organized, i can pull up and show the chords here again:
yes but i don't think i'm ready for that. but if you want, emailing literally any address at this domain gets you to my inbox.
something ive been messing around in new writings have been to just fly. be completely free. the goal is to make it impossible to categorize the song into distinct pieces, and just let yourself flow around. for longer things you want to have deep changes throughout but still follow a central theme. i have a couple song projects that have very little structure, but they're not very long. ugh! it's extremely hard to define but the more examples you see the better!! check out 24 hours from 10cc and close to the edge from yes. watch the variation and the storytelling.
i get that the normal idea would be not to tell a girl to lower her voice but also i feel like we are treating a superpower as a curse. well it is a curse, but with enough practice, i should be able to get an absurdly wide range of ways to sing. the game is control.
sometime later i want to pull off covering a song that's a duet. and i sing both the male and female parts. so far the hard part is distancing both voices, which i think i can do better if i practice voice feminization more.
i forgive you. non questions are secretly okay if i have something to comment on, but that's rarely the case (everyone, please send questions, not non-questions). i had a moment where i called the page input and output, thinking it was genious to expand the scope. but in reality, there isnt anything to say when the input is a statement. its like a SSSniperWolf reaction. like, what am i doing here.
they sent a question apologizing for this (funnily enough within an hour of this one being sent). i don't think i even noticed, instead thinking it was referring to someone else. i didn't post that one on this page because it wasn't really a question (i accept the apology though, thanks!!). i've been getting a few non-questions recently and i think the amount of non-questions bothers me more than misgendering.
i've tried both strategies and they both have interesting results. after i work through some things i'm going to give the entire album a re-record, emphasis on getting vocals done more so than anything else. if we are optimistic, that will be done by feburary or march. if i include a music video or two, maybe its halfway thru the year. idk. i don't want to spend years on one song anymore.
currently, voice fem is hard for me to keep up for an extended amount of time. at work, i do not use it at all (i also forget to).
i was fine yesterday and i'll be fine tomorrow but today is extremely rough for no good reason.
the thing about some comments is they are true, but also i don't know what you mean by misgendering me. those questions dont get published. and if its before the new year then i've replaced them all with a censor. if its after i probably just wont respond to it, but i really haven't gotten any of those. people, even in my family and in the workplace, are all really nice.
i'm glad you see it this way but i think i can do just a tiny tiny bit better but i am also happy with it too.
to disconnect the art from the artist.
sure
i think they are right there but also i haven't checked so they might be missing. i miss g.
i'm not sure. i used to get sad and not really know the reason. it's anoying not to know, but it gets better eventually. if you ever meet me in person, feel free to ask for a hug.
"their differences are normal and to be expected" is what i would say.
medium
i'm not sure if that's up to me to decide.
for other readers: this was sent while 2025-01-06 15:50 was in my inbox. i was waiting till i could properly format their usage of newlines before i could respond
i think so. after i get the site finished off (basically just going through archives) i want to really dive into album work again. i want to reduce the amount of effort i'm putting into the projects but also make it look like i'm putting the same or more in.
what about your right one?
i don't know because i never bothered checking statistics on them.
power
and i see improvement
that doesnt mean i also think that you need more experience
you're already quite good at making songs, its just that it takes time to learn to perform them
i've thought about re-performing some of the older songs. this is very true, partly because the way i write songs is by trying to memorize the ideas over months. that means the ones that make it to production are the ones that naturally earworm into me.
and i guess the other thing is learning to sing from the back of your throat and not have the voice go in the front or the nose
(although it can also be a style choice, some singers stick with sounding nasal, theres this guy called eros ramazotti who does that)
it's that way for me too
when i try to sing the higher notes i dont have as much control over my voice as i wish i had (yet)
it takes practice and also the right advice
if you feel like you are doing the same mistake over and over again maybe find some teacher that can give you advice
me too.
overall, this is not a question but i see what you mean.
you should go to japan's questions page and ask this
mr beast flavored
it's up to the apology acceptance committee to decide
yes i've had her since i moved 1.5 years ago
sure
have not watched it yet but i'll have to watch it sometime, which will be difficult because i do not have a TV or any show streaming services.
this one is fully intuition.
again can't make an objective list but
- when my parents gifted me a laptop when i was young
- everything aya has ever given me
- a video from timmy on my birthday
it's like a best friend but an evil best friend. it has the best intentions, but inevitably, you need to learn to ignore it most of the time.
to many to list let alone rank but here are five random ones i think of right now that have inspired me in some major way:
- the members of gentle giant
- mallbat
- glitch productions
- patrick foley
- emplemon
i, unfortunately, do not have any samples of a "right" sound. but you can look for "wrong" sounds by looking through my entire discography, which i am working on reuploading as we speak.
actually, i have two: the song at the end of iphone 15 review and the second chorus of waterfalls.
it's extremely hard to describe but there's just some "rightness" about hearing my own voice back. i used to think it's just missing practice, but i might just be dysphoria, since other people have told me for years that i'm rocking. when i get back to my apartment i'm going to work more on really shattering any last shred of this so i can actually get onto making more music.
never making it out there.
i've seen some nice things on bluesky, but i don't want to add another social media account to my arsenal when im sooo close to getting a rid of all of them myself.
i think sites are really the best thing, but it is unfortunate because you need to know a bit about HTML, but more importantly VIDEO COMPRESSION/SERVING. i just went to bill wurtz' website and its basically impossible for me to play Perfect without downloading it.
the trick to this btw is called HLS. i want to open source the script i used and the video player component because it's so cruicial to posting anything longer than 30 seconds on a website for people to play in-browser.
i remember trying odysee but i forgot why i disliked it. never heard of rumble.

i've already answered this before.
a friend showed me cave aged gruyere and it is currently my favorite but this will probably change as i usually cycle between a bunch of them.
if you want it to be, that is okay with me.
WHAT THE HELL IS THIS YOUNG KID DOING IN THESE AND WHY DOES HE SOUND SO TERRIBLE JEEZ CAN YOU AT LEAST TRY TO MAKE SOMETHING WATCHABLE??????????????
i'm working on it, sorry.
just one more than what was there previously.
it's really hard to say because i did not do exact time tracking on the project, i said on discord:
didnt track time for mv but it was produced alongside a full time software engineering career. from september ish to mid december, nearly all the time i had available outside work was spent on it, excluding time around friends. i did have a few weekends where i didnt leave my apartment at all (not even for grocieries or meals) and just grinded on the project. i had a lot of times where i felt like i couldnt work at all.
writing and producing the audio was on and off work from april 2023 to november 2024. not consistently. i spent most of 2024 practing singing not really getting where i want to be but better than before
during 2024 i was working on other songs, and i filmed many recording sessions. usually an hour long, most of these ended in me giving up. it's quite sad looking back at me being so lost
i've used them all but currently my favorite is safari (version 17.6)
direct messages or small group chats, through discord/signal/email. i like the bidirectional infodump more than the one way shout into the void that twitter is. it's more personal. it's more satisfying.
sure.
i'd ask her out but i'm worried what she'd say.
i was going to say i rarely dream but it's come up more and more these days. favorite one as of recent was a girl. i forgot what happened, but i remember that one dream as me just being a girl, as if that was how it always was. right now, i have so many things to transition an old identity to the new one. lots of dealing with multiple me's. the dream was comfortable because i was past that journey. and my gender was just a background element. and things were okay. when waking up i realized that fact of the dream instead of the actual topic inside the dream.
(assuming this is continuation of 2024-12-09 23:56)
not all friendships are meant to be. it's okay. if you want, you can send one more message, but be sure not to spam them. it's easy to make that mistake without realizing.
in general i'm very scared of other people/relationships. i've had some bad things happen to me in the past, and the result of that is a repulsion to having very close relationships. instead, i just collect as many friends as possible. i've learned that not everyone will be a close friend, and that it's okay if things drift away.
now i'm randomly reminded of some time when i was in high school i had a digital arts class (photoshop/etc), where i talked to the girl next to me nearly every day. i got her phone contact, sent a couple messages, and then never contacted again. last year while i still had instagram, i saw a photo posted by her. she's doing great.
sorry for rambling. the point is that things not working out is okay. maybe the next one will go better.
no, this is new information i need to fact check. very cool if true.
ok, according to a friend i am cute. wow.
very and it's unfortunate because i feel like i'm rarely around other people. it's like leaving the AC and just living on the roof where the AC doesnt hit.

sorry if you were the person that asked 2025-01-01 13:37, i have been very busy and i answered questions out of order.
i think i owe you an answer, but i do not owe you my personal life story. to summarize, i've been working through 2-3 years before really realizing i was trans, and that was half a year ago.
the beauty standards thing is real and so evil, and i'm glad its not something that affects me. i'm glad people did not forcefully prescribe my identity to me. my favorite form version of someone not telling me who to be was one friend telling me "it doesnt necesarilly mean anything. you could just be curious" before sending me this. that was good.
it's hard to describe how much happier it has made me feel, so i think i'll be okay.

it seems to be about the same website as it was before, though i agree the homepage needs work.

and is pushed to the very start of the questions page so nobody can find it anymore. what would you dothe database is sorted by question time, not url so it would show at the start. for example, this question stores 28929044 for example. if i happen to live to 2100 and still answering questions, it will just add a one to the start, so it would be 10001010000.
it increments to the next minute. this isn't a problem because this site will never get enough traffic to make that a big deal. people have tried to abuse the site in the past, but it never shows up publically, so there is very little reward for when that is done. so no one ever spams.
it used to be percise to the second but the site never displayed the seconds, so i just deleted it with this rewrite of the site.
no. if i took this route i would just impose a global rate limit on everyone to wait a minute.

i've seen mean girls twice. they're .. really mean. i've heard of but never seen legally blonde.
i had planned a very long process where i would cycle a name per week, with a set of trusted friends. one of the names i thought of was "chloe", because i didn't know anyone with that name, it felt cute at a glance, and was reasonably short and easy to say. so the plan was to do about 5 of these name weeks.
i picked chloe to be the second name trial, and after week two i really did not want to let it go.
file/journal/2024-09-21_paperclover_origins.mp4
the best part is before the name weeks started, i predicted chloe would be the one. in my character design documents, i had a character named chloe that always went by the alias "Clover". she wasn't really fully written out, and if i continue her i'll make up a new name for her.

one day i woke up realizing my brain could come up with thoughts. it's something i practiced through all my past lives and also this one. you can get better at it too i think.
drink water. give yourself time to lie down and take a break but not too much. but it's important to re-affirm to yourself that you're going to do the thing no matter what, in 12 hours. if you don't believe it yourself, there's no way that it'll happen. but since you do believe, it is certain to happen.
(im answering this at ~4pm. probably going to be up to 3 am or so trying to finish the next music video today. this question came in at a very good time)
sure, why not
in my case it is. i realized that i mostly enjoyed the part of the process where i make the art but sort of dreaded a lot of the publication and distribution process. i hated it even more when i paid or gave something to someone else to manage those points. my favorite part of the finalziation process is putting the finished file on my archive hard drive and cleaning off my work desk for the next thing.
lightly in my head. though it's something i kind of want to 3d-animate, it might be a smart idea to make the book before the movie.
i think its natural to be nervous from these things.
i remember i deleted my facebook and instagram accounts a month or so ago after i realized i never used it for anything. but i'm sure if you both use facebook it counts a lot more than it counts for me.
well, thinking about it now, i was very personal on my facebook page. being added on it counted for a lot since the few posts i made were quite personal.

what is good is you don't need a degree or license to write code. i think that is how it is in every country; you can just do it. that's what i did while i was going to school being taught non cs stuff. its what i did while taking cs classes that did not teach me cs. and then i got a job before finishing school, and being in the tech industry teaches you a billion things.

it's really hard to explain this since you have to experience all of the flavors yourself to get the real meaning of it. one flavor of love is the juxtaposition from being wanted, recieving attention, and then being scared of it. another flavor of love is mango.
it really depends on the flavor of the love itself. ask to lick them.

all i think i can really input is that i haven't listened to a podcast since highschool, which i did while doing yard work. i no longer have a yard, so i no longer listen to podcasts. i also don't really pay attention to any of those other things (i remember hearing about the ongoing war but i could not name anything about it. or maybe theres more than one. zero clue to be honest. wait you said wars with an s, oh shit, let me go vault up the chocolate).
so for me, since 2021 i feel like almost the opposite has been happening. the energy is neutral or even feminine. it's almost comforting to be disconnected, when being connected makes me feel that way. maybe you are crazy, but either way you are definitely connected.

i actually questioned this assumption a few years ago. i realized not only it wasnt true, i was happier without this assumption of love i thought i needed.
note that being a human being has the requirement of social interaction. its very hard to survive without it. the feeling your describing are those hardcoded requirements. having good friends is nice though. no reason to avoid it! i have a set of friends i am very close to, and they all sort of fill the role that the people i dated before had. getting friends like that is really hard though, and it's understandable if you think of friends as an avoidable evil.

on windows you're supposed to use both like C:/ except canonically as a backslash C:\
(but both work). /
can be the start of an actual filepath on windows as long as it is a unc share path, which is used for network drives and other things (WSL, and more). the backslashes can be forward slashes too, so for example \\paperclover.net\Asset\Blender\Homemade\cup3.blend
could be a file path (this share does not actually exist). now the notation C:
alone is a relative path with a drive letter switch, which is very different than C:\
which is the absolute path C:\
(or more verbosely \??\C:\
)
on linux :
is a stupid character to use in a filepath please dont do it you will only cause problems (mostly because the PATH
environment variable uses :
to split them)
i dont understand what you are talking about because both of the options you have listed are entirely real artists. they both exist.
i should rewatch and check out the sequels. but my memory of it was that it was very nice and high quality. they had the dragons.
i could accept that
i think it has something to do with people and interactions between them.
i spent alot of my teen days listening to his music and watching his videos. it's been a very big influence on how i make things.
no it's just an abcense of the action. it's like saying "i didn't run 7 marathons in a row"; consider that "didn't" and "run 7 marathons in a row", but the word didn't implies that the action was unfufilled. similarly, you could say "the 7 marathons in a row was unrequited", or "i am not loved".

i wish i could give some concrete advice, i basically got lucky on accident. throughout all of my high school career i basically just was fucking around with computers. it negatively affected grades and all that, but i didn't really care because i just loved doing computer bullshit. then i started college, at some random nobody place, as a random nobody person. i just wanted to get through it and get some job. kept doing the same stuff, because school was boring, and ended up hitting a really lucky break after one year.
and while i wouldnt say "throw away academics", i have noticed that the things i'm good at are all because i specifically wanted to learn them, and i spent thousands of hours learning them. and with every thousand hours you put into something, the better you get.
good luck.

potential resale value
let me check
these sorts of questions are not very viable because if something is more "beginner friendly" it's likely to have a lower skill/feature ceiling.
i would take the following list, shuffle it, and then run the trial version of each one. try to do as much as you can in a day, and then move to the next one. repeat until you hit all of them. take notes, they are all software i've verified myself at some point to be capable of editing videos together:
- davinci resolve
- blackmagic fusion
- shotcut
- final cut pro
- blender
- kdenlive
- adobe premiere
- adobe after effects
some of the above do not cost anything to use, and everything besides fusion has amazing tutorials on how to do everything you can imagine.
the rest of this response is related to how i do things specifically because i feel like sharing some new info:
most of my "effects" and "fancy visuals" are done on fusion. it is my favorite tool for the task but it has one of the steepest learning curves, as well as it being needlessly compute heavy. my older videos used specifically fusion 9.0.2, which was the last free version of the software, before it was fully integrated into davinci resolve. the integration within resolve is not very stable in my opinion, and breaks down when applying it for large scenes. instead of using resolve, some of my projects used a custom tool called the "sequencer" or the "creative toolkit". both were hacks of scripts to programatically render and arrange lists of fusion compositions. this is how the entirety of mystery of life's video was produced, including the 3d scenes.
newer video like the iphone one were made in resolve because i did not have the sequencing scripts in working condition, and i was on Mac OS which i had not ported all that code to fully work on.
i'm currently in a giant rabbit hole of computer graphics, so we may truely get a new tool for doing graphics. it will most likely have to be paired with a real video editor, but it would be a way to do intricate text graphics and composition, leaving stitching of these clips to the video editor program. i'll have more info on this throughout the year, especially as the album progresses (still doing only audio and it is taking forever)
i don't have any playlists i just use the shuffle all button.
it's a neat word. oh you mean the website, it's pretty solid.
there definetly was a blocking system at some point but i forgot if that is still in place. i have not had the need to block people in a while, though some questions are extremely odd or offputting; i just ignore these and do not place any form of a ban on them. people who spam the page also get the same treatment, i've found that since there is no visible feedback from abusing the question box, no one actually does so (it is also very rude regardless)

edit 2025-01-01: wow, sean's website was redone, replaced it with the archive.org linki would accept that
sure
usually the updates that contain things i actually want or need.
sometimes
i'm not sure yet.
sure, if you want them to.
it is a construct of your own imagination. you decide how it is.
you don't have to destroy any inventions, but rather change your headspace. and be a bit more wavy with things.

if you had to pick a number from 0 to 1000, one millon times over, would the number you picked the most equal the quanity of numbers you never picked?
you followed the instructions incorrectly.
i forgot what year it is.
nobody knows because when it happened no one was prepared to write down what happened. it just, kind of happened.
let me check
a character? which kind? a grapheme cluster, or a code point, a code unit, a glyph?? all of which i choose .
i think natalie would say yes
it does

no it's handmade
probably as part of winning the race
true. i hadn't considered that
i can't take an operating system seriously if it is possible to open (and take keyboard focus) an application but it appears under other applications. i develop over SSH on a macbook because it is saner.
that is alright. edge isn't bad.
all memes happen. it's a fact of life.
these are all up to you
sure
please do not donate to me.
no, they are too unique.
it is not but whatever the limit is or how many questions you send, you need to keep it on your concious mind that i am going to read the entire thing. you should feel extremely bad about yourself if you abuse either of these things.
surely
the fact that it's possible
did you mean old name caruso? regardless, i still don't remember.
it's alright
bun
you must be thinking of 2021-09-28 16:35 which seems to be a response to 2021-01-25 17:14 which was a response to 2020-06-14 18:51. of course i remember you.
it's exactly what i thought it was going to be: a game engine. it's great.
i basically only played with the editor. i did not really look at what anyone else made with it. something about a fire in a hole.
- celeste-like camera
- snapping test
- [30% written 2d portal gun bullet code]/file/q+a/RPReplay_Final1704695669.mp4). most of this is spent on grid-snapping.
- the practice mode song as an actual level layout
i lost interest some time after because i wanted to get back on the album but it's a great game i could spend a few more dozen hours.
i don't know who tom brady is so i'd rather have the dollars as opposed to meeting someone.
let me check
this question is not a valid path on windows because it is missing a drive letter.
i'm figuring that one out, ask again later.
welcome. i am very glad you are here.
there was this cat, and she named me.
make sure to adjust your niceness level to the maximum allowed.
no
what about it?
that would be me yes
let me check
it would be paradoxical to assume either answer here.
though it's more about learning the concepts of writing code, because once you learn it learning other languages is easy. i learned zig very well in a few weeks, and i think i learned the majority of rust in two days.
i don't remember
my favorite character
i don't think there is any harm in trying. though since it gets tiring, i like to take "clap breaks" every so often, usually while a performance art takes place, then i clap afterwards. this helps reduce fatigue in my hands.
i'd prefer to be everyone's valentine, in a fake world where nobody exists.
doing exactly what feels right, at exactly the right time.
i would assume one as in the number
it's raining
everyone did. i learned it intuitively by listening to music and then trying to make it myself. it's kind of like ai, but manual.
too many vocal retakes
last i checked (it has been a while though), old name is my name. let me double check to make sure this is accurate
yep. "old name M Caruso" is the full name i go by, though i think "old name" is good enough for informal, or if you're a close friend to me, there are some other nicknames i enjoy.
i wonder
it depends what project you're asking about.
have fun with your life before you get to college and you have less time to have fun, and before you get past college where you have even less time.
learn things you want to because they're enjoyable, not because you'll get views.
i have a ton of other things i could say: suggestions on what exactly to spend your time on, things to avoid, software to use. but i wouldn't feel comfortable saying them to anyone besides 16 year old me. it's up to you to decide what you want to do with your life.
like if you want to make art and be an artist, just do it. though i would recommend starting as absolutely small as possible (think to the good old 1 word bill wurtz songs), and then scaling up from there.
i think you should make a video without fudge happening.
unhappy
i dont know. it doesn't really matter to me. as long as i make it and i enjoy the result, that would be a success.
probably immediately after it is fully finished.
old name music.
- mars
- other planets, stars, and stuff
- the fact that music actually exists
- typography
- graphics cards
if i'm being honest i don't remember
it probably depends. you should spoil something for me and then gauge the reaction.
exclaimation points
probably the world wide web
i dont know what this question is asking
atoms
no, but it contains a lot of words, usually within books, and that makes it quite wordy. to which, in my opinion, it is close enough to worldly.
that sounds like a weird thing to do considering the point of this page is to ask me things. it should always direct to me.
what about them?
no you are not.
average thoughts
i don't think it's good enough but in the event this stuff takes over the world i'm just gonna keep doing my own music because the interesting thing about music and art for me is the process that the human took to create the media.
i found some ai things interesting because of all the steps the human took to make the ai do the thing correctly, and i think the art there is the process less the result.
if it becomes more widespread on platforms like spotify or youtube i'm going to pull my content off of their platform.
i made a configuration mistake then forgot to fix it. sorry for the downtime.
it finds you and then it eats you
you should ask a baby caterpillar. one of my friends was a caterpillar but not anymore. maybe they still remember.
there isn't a search bar on this website at the time of writing.
i am a musician and someone gifted me chocolate the other day so i think that would fit all the marks there.
they taught me this one in school i swear but i dont remember it sorry.

no but just one

yes, yes, and yes
thank you
no
it's by JokerFactor who got the least possible time, 0.0 (link to discord message). i am unaware of anyone else who has done this feat.
i could say the same about your question
not sure, i'll get back to you later.
its hard for me to know because i don't really remember what things were like before. but i dont think that you have to fight to question the world, you just have to do it. im not aware of much stopping us.
when you press the send button a cat runs up to me and hands me a sealed envolope with the questions and then i answer them.
i was going to ask where but i realized i use recursive everywhere.

it is intriguing
i think about this one a lot
every day all of the time
i am sorry. i tried to write the shader on the homepage as optimal as possible but it must not be. if this page is lagging that is because there is simply a lot of content.
verbaitim
no
i use mac nowadays and it's the best desktop os i've used in my life.
linux is great if you're a tinkerer, and willing to always tinker on stuff. it reminds me of car people like my dad; if their car had an issue the first thing they'd do is open it up. and then unlike me and others, would probably know what the hell they're doing.
and i could do that with linux, but sometimes you just want to make an album and sometimes its worth paying for an unrepairable-and-locked-down-as-fuck MacBook, vs the DIY nature of linux.
again not to say linux is bad, i think its more stable and usable than Windows, but that is once you get it setup. linux is harder to setup and maintain almost always, but i imagine if i touched updates less often i would've had less problems anyways.

nowhere?
i don't remember
i dont know what you're talking about

i don't remember how
it's just magical.
chocolate keyboards dont exist because i already ate them. there is nothing to resist.
more often, i think about if the game can break me.
recursive except for stupid and dumb places you cannot change the font on.
i'd probably go more into the music side of things. learn piano. i would probably do it 15 times all over again that way. but i think its okay how it turned out this time.
i don't know. sorry.
enjoyable. i wish it was scarier.
it was like 11pm and i was curious what this "sun is a deadly lazer" snippet i was sent was about and then by 4am i had watched at least 50 of bill's videos. i didn't realize art could be so expressive.
it depends on the time of year. when people say it's a "new day", they are referring to this distance measurement, not the contents of the day.
yes but for a billion different iterations of two fictional characters interacting.
honestly don't remember the list of genres, sorry.
apple watch
not yet
the idea is i would embed them into the songs page so you could play the song and read the lyrics alongside. kinda like what apple music does.
never really got around to that, been busy on the album. havent even published the new site layout.
prefer regular vanilla if i'm going for the flavor alone but otherwise i love it.
you forgot to ask the question
never heard of it
still figuring that part out.
sorry i've been really bad with my file hosting. one day i will have a page with all those old test files. and also combined with a bunch of new test files. here is one of the new files
edit 2025-01-01: i am now organized 2021-12-05_smooth.mp4
i can confirm this happened. mother did say this. i was there.
the other side is hanging on to you too
this is not a question
no
my dad. mr car uso
let me check
still figuring it out, but i usually think about the idea of doing something specific, for months and months, and then eventually have the courage to give it a try and then i write it out, then i revise, then i turn it into audiovisual media.
for the album, which isnt neccecarily creative writing but it also totally is, i've been giving myself a set of steps to follow and i've been stricter than i usually have been about following the list of steps to the letter.
i don't go to school so i wouldn't know
maybe you're not certain if you're right or not. double check the numbers, use a calculator if youre not sure.
you should have a really pleasant mix of both
let me check, probably 19 years ish
no but there are plenty of other light mode pages to enjoy
with real snakes
i focus on the feeling it invokes, or the symbolism of the thing, less of what the reality of it actually is. it's more comfortable that way in my opinion.
if that were true, would any action taken to make yourself more hated (such as: kwebbelkop) have the opposite effect? i don't think so. it really depends more on the context of the changes you make to yourself, and what your secret motives behind them are.
some people change themselves to be more likable because they want to like themselves more.
ask the road (Representative of All Ducks) for an answer
sometimes
i'm okay
im unfamiliar with what an up dog smells like
platformers like celeste and new super mario bros wii
it contains half of itself, on average.
sometimes some paths are physically impossible to cross. just remember that it's usually possible to walk in both directions, and hopefully at some point you can revisit the more interesting path.
also, check for fog. sometimes you'll find the unappealing path actually leads to something interesting, but you just cant see it yet.
whats a denver bronco
i'm really really tired
my opinion on this subject changes often but i really enjoyed the chocolate bars may got me some time ago.
i did that once i think. it was very effective. try a variation where you're actually behind the circle and everything looks backwards.
i wish it was still possible but ios nowadays can do much more. well, i haven't used it in a while but next week i get to try it out again.

it depends but usually i do but sometimes i do really weird hours. yesterday and today i woke up at 8pm.
i think so
doesn't it feel so nice to be free in that way?
i love you but no thanks
let me ask her if this is true on her question's page.
i had to rollback everything because the q+a page did not let people type in the box for some reason.
otherwise i dont feel like porting over all the old pages. might make the site much more minimal. might make a blog.
let me ask the woodchuck on their questions page.
you should go to their questions page and ask that
it's quite interesting
i have never heard of any of these but i will go with seek
physical local hard drive
not really. i usually dont save uncompressed renders
try asking doordash instead.
heh. it's actually because they dont put fans in half their machines.
i'm not so sure about this one
i'm not 100% sure but i think is related, even just a little, to the new copy+paste technology culture that rose half a decade ago. also "content" culture.
True but paradoxically I could not actually prove this is the case, so False.
i love you too may
they're okay but i'm more interested in artificial intelligence's opinions on you.
anything can be an instrument if you have a good enough sampler. for example, a wifi router.
its a chicken and egg problem, both were first.
probably the rules of the stupid web framework im using
this one is so close to a title of a SONG in the album.
overall these were all pretty good but a human can write way better ones.
In the past I had a videos folder and then a folder per video.
For the album I have: ~/Album/logic/<song name>.logicx
. Logic is great because each file is basically a zip file of all song contents, samples, etc.
For the videos of the album, I'm not fully sure but i feel like it'll be ~/Album/<song name>/<scene number>/{program name}/file.ext
this question is like the whole premise of the album.
*were
oops, already eaten.
the memories actually name me.
i love you too. stay safe out there milo.
you should ask them on their question page.

try to ask nicely but still be assertive. could also buy it.
of course
that is not true
yes
i think of these as like higher level concepts like "a spoken word moment within an otherwise music packed album" and when i think of these i almost always follow the thought with "i'm sure someone's done this before, but it's definetly not very common"
i'm always so glad to see it's possible.
me and a friend talk about this stuff alot when thinking about each others ideas and theres a word i feel like they use alot. like one day recently i was talking about one idea related to video publishing and they said:
Thats genius. Is there precedent for that?
correct. one of my songs actually is partly about that (you recited one of the lines almost exactly)
is too slow at producing hit albums
it's both combined in one

edit 2025-01-01: a lot has changed since this, the site is built from scratch with typescript, sqlite, and my own code to generate HTML. i'll do a long writeup blog post eventually.
so i want to rebuild the entire thing AGAIN
right now it is a sveltekit app run on a digital ocean vps (i had issues with cloudflare workers caching and hanging)
every single thing is dynamically linked to a postgresql database. its a mess and i think this is a mistake since so much content is rarely updated and i think the real solution to scheduling content is not a database but just
sleep <seconds till release>; git push
im thinking of using astro in the future but the fact theres no client side routing is really not doing it for me. i started making my own set of tools for it that solves all those problems but its nowhere near usable.
the site is something i want to work on but ive had little time and motivation as my current life time is spent doing these things
- writing code for bun
- working on the album
- being alive life stuff.
working on the site or framework is like, too much code for my life workflow right now. perhaps. maybe a spark of motivation will happen.
in the future it will most definetly be running on bun/oven's hosting service but that doesnt exist yet.
also
i want to take a note to describe how dynamic the question answer page really is. its the coolest part of the site and the only thing that really needs to be dynamic. each question is markdown code using a forked version of a markdown parser that lets me throw in 2023-08-05 21:07 which is just the text #2308052107
but it seems that code is now magically broken. wtf. why cant it just work.
this stuff breaking is the type of shit that makes me want to write it all over myself with just my code. but thats like weeks of work, especially if i want to keep the site as big as it is. there is a case to just make it a single page
also the cdn
edit 2025-01-01: i used to have a backblaze bucket on a subdomain. instead, that is now https://paperclover.net/file, which is so much simpler. it mirrors a folder on my hard drive. Publishing new files is just running a script. I'll do it right now for example: /file/q+a/20250101221312.png
Maybe you weren't listening to your child.
i've only ever used Google Pixel as an android phone, but ive held the Samsung phone and it is very interesting from an outsider. but i think in a few months i'm just gonna buy an iphone. but at the same time i might keep my android phone because i really like the voice recorder app i use on that and i dont believe it exists on ios.

i forgot what my personality test was but maybe you can take it for me by pressing "neutral" on every question
idk i have the max one. or the pro? or both. i dont know. these words all basically mean the same thing to me when used as a suffix of a tech product.
i can swim similarly to how the pyramids in egypt can be a movie theater. possible, but not intentional or a good idea.
i think they are very cool however i cannot find any use i will ever measure anything, real or virtual, with those prefixes.
for distance, i think "inch" or "cm" covers like every single one of my use cases, including within 3d software / virtual stuff. beyond that i'd just measure a distance in minutes that it'd take using the transit system.
that would be the number of songs in my upcoming album.
that is not true it's only been almost half that
too late
you forgot to ask the question
i've never seen this before. it seems reasonable.
goodmorning stacy.
you could be referring to a lot of things but relationships that get old are usually really good and comfortable.
i sure hope you do
i have bad memory so that could've totally happened and i just forgot.
if we only count the writing phase, 72.5%
if we count the rest of it, i would have to estimate, idk. 20%
aiming for next year but it's really hard to know how long it'll actually take to make it. it might be 2025. but i'm okay spending as much time as it takes so long as i'm not getting trapped in perfectionism.
music videos too.
it feels extremely fresh but the place is still a mess as i wait for the rest of my IKEA furniture to ship.
but the general thing is there are bills, i have a job, but i get full control over my life.
liberating
so this isnt unique to living in an apartment but for my situation i moved an extremely far distance (Detroit -> San Francisco) so that basically cuts off physical contact to the people i know and love.
Yes, it gets a little lonely because of that specifically. but the idea of living in a place on my own isn't a lonely feeling.
someone's long-lost cousin.
my upcoming album explores a lot of negative-but-im-confused-why feelings. also trying to figure out love. also hair.
examples:
oh i
got lost inside a paradise
and
it stopped at every station
but none felt like home
and
i wanna love someone, but i'm locked in despair
life moves so quickly, and i'm almost there
and
oh wow the toast is ready
and
it's a different but sweet and solemn sound
is what? because no matter what you're gonna ask the answer is no. nothing is easy.
this is not true
this is also not true. though i know your expectations were betrayed.
it's okay, i promise.
because it was already on the other side
sveltekit running on node.js on a blank linux vps

you can try but construction usually gets in the way of people just trying to exist.
it's funny.

im not sure if this is a compliment or a question but thank you for your input.
it was worth every penny of it

seems like you want a q+a page too. that would be interesting.
no it just increases your clarity and awareness inside of the dream but you'll still forget it afterwards
this isn't true
why not both
rather just publish everything without putting a maze behind it.

i didn't grow up with a microwave and i don't know how to use the one in my apartment. so i can't answer this question.
i think the latter is the true one because i usually feel alone in my own home. it's not really terrifying to me though, because i've gotten used to it; so the aliens existing would be scarier.

timmy really thought we could win with that idea.
idk but you are what you eat so just look at what you are and coerce it to a vegetable.
you're not supposed to send the answer alongside the question. what was the idea of sending a question with an answer. what am i supposed to do. im confused
it's not november but im not really sure what it is. maybe it's may, or july, or september

oh no
last time i played it that section loaded but if it isn't that's really unfortunate. i'll add this to my endless todo but idk when/if i can get to fixing it. email me with more info on how youre playing the game but i swear it ran fine on the google chrome version 2 years ago.
which one
favorite job
let me check
oculus quest because meta still sounds like a word more than a hundred billion dollar company.
it's a sign that you should become something.
this is true but i see more room for growth
part of it is the fact you can do anything and in a sense that is also a curse. sometimes i feel like i wish i never learned any of this and instead just focused on music/videos instead of dumping literally dozens on months failing to automate certain tasks
i dont remember. i was very young. i know my dad was into computers and he helped me put together this really cool little mini pc and i then just kept going crazy with it. minecraft was somewhere along the journey. so was hacking my wii. windows batch files too, though now i use a blend between linux and macos.
i kind of just kept picking up different things but doing nothing huge with the skills because i didnt have the skills to make anything huge. or the ideas. and when youre a kid in middle/high school just googling how to use react and webpack in 2016-17 it's just confusing and i didnt really understand and either it's gotten easier or i grew but i started really understanding how the web stuff worked. but i also had very random skills in other places like java and c and so on. i also learned php more in depth than i should have but havent touched that in ???. so on and so forth
idk where im going because im pretending to know exactly what happened in my life. also music and videos happened. also elemental 4. also that thing with ludwig. also bun.
just kinda, do what you want to do. make sure to survive too. if you're lucky, you'll win the game.
actually you are awesome

what about it?
yes. i have over a thousand audio files that can be added to it like 2023-01-08.mp3
edit 2025-01-03: i uploaded a few files to the journal folder, though i feel like one day this deserves its own rendered out page.
that would be remarkable
right now it's "waterfalls" by me
who's there
nope. gone forever.
i had that dream too. i also had a dream to make a countdown on the input box and limit the box to 1 per day. and also limit the box to 10 questions max before i got to it.
i like it.
i want a whole world to tell stories in. its a big project idea and i've only barely started.
no
you gotta get into their shoes. you gotta think like them. everything someone does has a reason; and if you think that reason is "no reason" then theres a reason the character would say there is no reason.
i got on a giant tangent that i want to continue that is essentially plotting out every single thing possible about two of my characters (which i havent really made public, i want to 3d model them and animate and storytell with them in videos, which is why im doing this extensive writing process). and what i've found is i can explain every single behavior and thing about the character since i've established a rough history of the entire character's life. their viewpoints, people they knew in the past, how those people influenced them, their fears and the things they love.
to start getting the hang of it though you probably can just start. just play conversations in your head. people say to be yourself alot, but try not being yourself in these and see if that gets you anywhere. but maybe DO try being yourself; try being variations of yourself.
this is all speculation please email me if any of this works.
endless writing phase
i don't know why either
album
i dont really understand it, but i think its an interesting idea to do something in the least number of steps.
i'm unaware of golf ball sizing.
what about it?
probably the "incorrect" kind.
good morning
you should include ev's changing hair color too
easier to read i think
i forgive you.
go ahead. just remember that g, e, m, are all based on real people who have heavy associations with the letter, in a sense that i often refer to them by their letter. and many other letters are also based on real people but not with the letter matching up.
interesting idea. i don't have time to make this game but if you do, you should join the discord and share your progress if that's something you're gonna work on. it would be wild to see a video game using blend modes and layering.
sometimes
that must be incredibly lonely. i sometimes feel lonely by not being near people, but i know that it's possible to see them. this person wouldn't even have the possibility.
they couldn't easily prove it.
so many people. thousands. trillions. will all feel the same way.
idk. i'm not the one writing the story. i think.
"how has the album been going?"
oh i wrote a piece of software that makes this type of stuff really easy except i dont make it until the future so it doesnt exist yet.
i don't know, i barely know how to use blender. probably with a few keyframes.
i think we often don't realize the truth is the truth. this is the source for disagreements and arguments and maybe even wars.
i could see it going that way.
the answer to this question is unknown
this would be an amazing hook for a song.
no i think we have this backwards. greet first, then you meet them. it's called a meet and greet because these actions are both done at the event, just not at the same time. named out of order because it rolls off the tongue a little better.

yes. many meanings.
you're within your right to question everything. i do that sometimes. often times no one chooses to listen, and those people are well within their right for that. i wont promise you deep answers on anything unless you're the song i'm writing or one of my closest friends.
gestures at the future it's going to be okay.
violet loves that one
a ton. i want to merge them in one project but i don't think i'll have the time/desire to even start that project in the next few years unfortunatly.
i need to think about it
i want to travel into the future so i can say the new mario movie. the rest of the movies i can't think of off the top of my head.
both at the same time, one in each ear.

ah, i always forget C
. thanks for reminding me for today's study session.
ruined the phrase. love it
good font but can feel weird in some places.
what can't it do.
no. in fact i have so many ideas i think the real thing i'm out of is time.
ln(cabin) if i remember this class correctly.
at least 5
i think this happened multiple times already. at least twelve. probably more. this is why people act "weird."
which dress? it's probably green.
yes
i dont feel so good about that.
most definetly.
i have to check with the coolness department
hello
i chose it, randomly.
i think its a fine representation. use more imagery maybe.
describe, almost.
evaluate, never.
start with windows 7 notepad and then save the file as .HTML. keep learning. ignore browser support. then learn how to do everything properly.
both at the same time. its a huge time sink, and i wish i could get projects done faster, but i always think the time i put in it regardless is worth it.
though right now im putting zero time into the music work at the moment so it's not very worthwhile of the time im putting in it. unfortunatly. hopefully production can pick back up by may.
i felt a bored and i wanted to see if i could.
no
because im too lazy to fix the one question that has a really long code block
someone used it as a nickname for me a long time ago, based on my profile picture being a paper airplane. now the icon represents the name, which represents the icon. so we're kinda suck in a loop. i i think it sounds nice.
edit 2025-01-03: the username used to be paper[deadname], for obvious reasons i simply used my name in my name. instead of using my new name in the username, i decided to pick something similar but not that name, to bail me out from this stupid dependency on my real life. and also since i started in 2018 with [deadname]code, i realized that i wanted to withhold some of the most personal details in my life, though i'm fine with people finding out my name is chloe. i'm even fine with people finding out my deadname is... well, i'd rather not. and finally, there is now a space in my username because i realized i fucking hated when people combined words for no reason. i will lose my shit if i see someone types PaperClover with the pascal casing, like wtf no that's not how this works.
it depends if they are eating from the soup or drinking the soup liquid.
which definition of "love" do you have because depending how you define it that makes perfect or zero sense.
i keep that one a secret
it's available readily in landlocked cities.
civet has some fun things i wish typescript had like switch pattern matching and pipelines. there's a million other things i could think of though, especially for other languages.
it depends on when you celebrate chrismas
ai can't generate art right now. i don't think it is capable of that, by definition.
there are none. creativity goes infinitely. in fact you might find ways to use cogs, machines, and ai tools to help you on your way to making art.
not sure. i tried finding the limits once but couldn't. i feel like it isn't infinite, but i didn't look all the way.
i don't think that's true. well, you sure can let it rip you away if that's what you want.
been there done that it's a bad but sometimes necessary thing.
about 1 sonic, which is a unit of measuring speed.
i haven't heard of this before.
sounds interesting.
no it's more like a causation.
aren't these automated by now?
i just got home after 4 hours of college physics class i did not need to hear any of this.
i don't think they will ever realize that to be honest.
i'm 18 now
it was the chorus tune except it was "i'm 15 now" except it was the second chorus only. i then wrote the first two verses later on and then renaming it to 18 after i realized that fit the melody as well, and had a new, much more realistic deadline. i think most of my way though mayday i realized i could totally pull it off instead of it being a song that went to waste. so then the bridge mentioning 14 was then written then as a sort of callback. i think there was another one in the song referencing age 9 as sort of the start of everything but i didnt keep that in and i dont remember what it even was about. most of this song was theorized as a showerthought, kinda evolving over the years.
eight-dimensional, sharp yet soft. warm, sometimes too hot.
good morning, thanks for making sure the system works.
it depends on your perspective, and i'm not so sure where i stand.
no i wrote them all besides "I would suggest removing the example sentences from this textbox since it encourages some people to just type what it says in there." but oddly enough i cant find me replying to that prompt on this page.

i forgot what the brand is but there's this one that is really really really really nice. but most of them are pretty good as long as they give you actual chocolate unlike some brands.
w/o mayo
they bribe the judges
i'm glad you enjoy it, it was a very important stepping stone for me to allow myself to make mistakes in my art, because projects after it would make less mistakes.
zero at the moment, usually 1
c
so this and the projects before is hard to know because i never logged time like i did like i do now, well i have some time logs but they were for songs before mayday.
i know i worked on 18 right after mayday and balancing with high school life i finished it right near the start of april. no estimate for you
probably much longer than it should have. this was from december to february and in general i felt like this had way more going on. song had so many wild things and weird things i just powered through.
if i HAD to estimate i think 18 and mayday were both over the 70hr mark for total production time
probably within one day. thursday videos here were very fast turnaround and focused more on learning how to put audio together without having real audio software. i kind of want to try these kinds of videos again but with vocals and a real set of audio tools, i tried once already.

generative ai is really interesting and something i want to start using really soon because i have a lot of ideas on how i could apply it to my video making. i've already been messing with a few of AI tools like stable diffusion and whisper a while ago. these two are cool because i can run them without paying a giant company to run it for me, though there's some crazy tools out there. chatgpt is interesting, but alot of people overhyped it. it is a very interesting idea too and i think it's going to be really cool to see the tech powering bing.
lots of flaws right now in all of them (gpt can't code, sd/dalle still isn't great at alot of art) but it's only gonna get better slowly, and it definetly has applications right now. it might replace alot of jobs, but there will also be alot of new jobs and modified jobs where you know how to use these ai tools.
g is missing (2023) took 20(audio) + 15(video) = 35 hours to make. though my tracking on this time wasn't perfect. i need to get better at tracking my time.
mystery of life (2022) took >10(audio) + 31(video) = >41 hours. saying more than ten because theres no way i only spent 10 hours.
it's snowing (2022, short) the entire production from writing to uploading took 10.5 hours. this was a rush but an effective one.
luna (just realized that videos is not on this site yet, cant link) took 8 hours. another rush, not as effective, but quite a wild ride especially given it's context.
i remember off the top of my head money visual cover took over a hundred hours.
so the takeaway here, which i'm also glad you've brought this up since i haven't looked at it yet myself: videos are being able to be made faster. though i have some trick shots i want to pull with davinci resolve but before we jump into new territory i'm going to be fixing this website up alot.
i will check
because the fearful weather says so
i always loved this line because it can be thought of many different things, even something crazy suggestive, or crazy in the exact opposite way like a huge debate with flamethrowers.
all weathermen and weatherwomen and other weather people go to a giant meeting room. with flamethrowers.
the flamethrower store in preparation of the weather debate all night. it's always been this way and it will never change.
it's that time of the year again.
the video was rushed alot, but i was really busy at that time and so on. i wish i could've really nailed the visuals on the drum solo because looking back at it to me feels like i just threw up a bunch of colors on the screen. not in a good way. but i mean, it's passable.
i also realized there was a bit to the audio which is present in the song, which i fixed in the video. right at the end. so this and many more small adjustments to the music i wish i could make but i couldn't do because the song was already sent off.
though this project has been a huge step up for me in many small ways. i think i'll only get better. i wanna be able to sing even better.
yes. due to an issue with apple music, they are STILL in the process of renaming me from old username to old username. and due to ANOTHER issue, i have not fixed the redirects of the "/spotify" and "/apple-music" pages.
i've been in contact with distrokid / apple support and i forgot who said what but they both said that the name change was not forgotten about and apple just has a really slow queue for name changes and that they will get to it eventually but it might be many months, and this was many months ago.
edit 2025-01-03: no, please download local files. if you pay for apple music, you can add these and icloud will sync them across devices. i've also attached lyric data so it's almost exactly the same experience.
i am working on the music page right now and it will have my 4 "real" tracks but also 13 more instrumental tracks as well as the Phoenix, WRITE! soundtrack.
edit 2025-01-03: i made the music page but killed it in the new site. give me some more time, and then i will replace this edit with another edit of the new archive music page. unless some intense gender dysphoria hits i will ensure every bit of art i've made since 2018 is on this site.
threaten to turn off all of the lights.
i forgot the answer to this question.
only the popped ones.
neither. i wrote it completely out of order. i switched which letters i mentioned. some of the letters have ties to real people, such as @M_is_Scared. if i wasn't as limited on time i would've made a longer song that went over every letter there was and what they were doing during the situation, maybe that wouldn't fit.
for a measure of how unordered the song is, i think the last line i wrote was the end of the first chorus: "when will the search end so we can go bring them home"
i said i knew what i was doing but im still really confused on what the best sofware is.
if youre looking to get into stuff, you gotta checkout blender. if you want to know what i am using just to know, for the past few videos ive used a mix of blackmagic fusion, davinci resolve, blender, and custom software to automate pieces of it. i didn't use davinci resolve on mystery of life, and only used it for converting a png sequence on g is missing, but i think i'm going to start using it more in future videos. i used to be not so comfortable recommending my software but i know these two programs are really big and the free version of resolve is free, which has a (albeit lame) version of fusion built in. so you can try it and see if you love it. if you are a really big user of it, consider the one time $300 upgrade; i can say its worth it.
also in some future projects i want to use stable diffusion and some really weird image / video tricks that i haven't actually made yet. please ask this question again after my next few videos go out.
for music i use bitwig studio but you gotta remember that what daw you use really doesnt matter. however, bitwig has some fun built in presets, where if you pick up something like reaper you got to find samples and plugins elsewhere to do anything. i might switch to reaper in the future because its more scriptable than bitwig (not more but IS while the other one IS NOT).
overall, do know that there's more than one way to make art. that's what makes art art. don't copy what i have, or worse, BLINDLY BUY STUFF.
this song was thought up after my friend gee fell off the internet due to their life being busy. it was funny to me because they never said they would be going missing, they kinda just did. so then one day i had this Little idea (i would say what day it was but i haven't indexed the whole audio journal, or maybe i didn't write it down idk) ((this is the earliest file i have for g is missing 2022-08-17-19-43-32.m4a and i'll update this question with the true first sketch when i find it))
the song started very similar to how it is now and the sketch idea went until "or whatever it's called." i was just doing shower improv singing and it was fun because that last Line gets so overloaded and dragged out that the voice just giving up on singing and switching to the spoken "or whatever its caller as well giving up on identifying whatever the hell S even had. that was and is so funny to me, but i was laughing quite a bit in the shower at that time. fun stuff so then i thought more and decided "yeah we're gonna finish this on gee's birthday" and then i finished the song sometime at the end of my break between college semesters.
this was the first project i dived into getting VST plugins to work on linux. its a hard setup and it sucks. though i see a really interesting world of new sound i can get through the ones i found/bought. i have windows 10 setup on my other SSD which i am going to do the rest of my songs on since plugin support is way better there and i fixed the big filesystem problem that many have with dual boot. lots of interesting music to do.
i also did improve my voice a bit, but i still feel Like theres ways up to go. final product is way better than some of the stuff i had during production, Like this and this im really proud of a couple of moments like this and of course the drum solo
the video was a little rushed. deadline was inching closer and i didn't fully realize that "releasing in feb" really meant "you only have jan to work on this, and then like ~7 extra days." in this time i discovered a trillion tricks, since "you only have jan" actually means "you also have four college classes." the timing of this is project's deadline was really horrible because it was a day after a math exam and a week after a physics exam, two very hard classes. this project has probably the most extra files with unrelated tests, which i will publish all of them sometime but i'll link some in this question for now.
blender live animation, or whatever it's really called. it's really interesting. here's my test. i use this for the camera in some spots, as well as various objects.
but what's more interesting, taking these renders and then using cryptomatte to isolate objects. that is more interesting. but EXRs load really slowly in every application, so i don't think i'm ever going to do this again. here's what the method looks like, it's the same trick i used in it's snowing and the donut test. i really wish it ran faster but with viewport renders being infinitely faster in every way i dont think i can ever go back to this. and what i mean by slow is <7fps. and there's no reason something that is already rendered cannot simply load into the program. like fuck, my hardware supports 60fps 8k BRAW, though i don't know what this measure actually means.
and viewport renders. let me talk about those since most people haven't. they're fast to render, and MOSTLY the same quality of a real render. plus, you can interesting passes like TimeEvolvesRenderC0001-0551.mp4 which was purely to get the camera tracking to work in the last scene... at that point i was so crunched on time that this and then doing text+liveaction in fusion was faster than figuring out how to do it properly in blender. theres some other places i just use viewport renders because theyre faster to run and still great quality.
and this sort of random video files is actually pretty interesting, and it's making me re-evaluate alot of how the creative toolkit works right now. that code assumes that you have one blender file and one fusion file per frame, and nothing else. which i am realizing is infinitely limiting, but giving more freedom makes it harder to automate. so i'll be exploring those potential techniques with davinci resolve over the next few months i guess. i already did a bit of stuff like with this and this and i hope to do way more in the future.
so much more also happened but this is just what i remember and found in the project files which i am now going to move to my archive drive which will also make the project nearly unopenable now. i guess let's open it up for a minute before all the paths get broken
thanks.
time has to pass. but also if time goes backwards it also happens. counterintuitive.

apparently the Youtube preset in DaVinci Resolve does not include audio? i don't know. the DNxHR version i exported to for the automatic-upload-to-website-script did incldue audio. same timeline, same export time. so what i uploaded to youtube after was the webm that the upload script made and not the "youtube" export preset. it doesn't help that i didn't preview it locally but only the other files, and you cant preview a video before it premieres.
also keep in mind i did all this exporting at literal 3am so i mightve hit a wrong key during this.
also i am starting to use davinci resolve again but for this video it was just for turning the png sequence into a video because i didn't want to bother fucking up my ffmpeg options (at 3am). i was also messing with effects and i think i figured out why projects like i'm 18 now were so broken in that app and how to get around those issues.
all of them, i just have to sort out links and some other details. for example, one links to journal2019-05-06-18-47-08.mp4
which is not hosted at the moment. so im doing a first pass of the questions i can upload. and then ill figure out how i want to upload media files like this (well journal is a whole topic that haven't really started doing. and then i'll make sure to go back and edit this question to make sure the link is a link. this response will look really weird in the future.
edit 2025-01-03: added that journal mp4. i'm really really happy with the new site.
you tell me
too many to name but the obvious one is bill wurtz. their art really sent the message to me that i could and should do whatever the hell i wanted to. but i'm taking so many other influences off everyone else. influencing off my friends and even my enemies. lots of influence. overflowing, even.

someone who doesn't use a vpn to tour the usa/world and ask questions as 8 different people to this one person online. but more specifically i wanna be someone who makes interesting things with the computer, which i currently do but i think i could do more and maybe i could also have a job on the side so i can pay for the tools to make the art or maybe i can promote my donation page enough to make a living from that but i'm not placing any bets there.
art is art
i just realized a character from that book is, at least by her name, present in my current writing project. maybe that was subconciously intentional.
but anyways i was forced to read "a book of my choice" during high school english class in 2022. i randomly picked this one off the shelf. no other book has remained in my memory as much as this one has, or at least the feeling i got reading it.
i would list more books but i do not recall liking many books. same with movies, tv, songs, and alot of other media.

wanting to be with someone or a group of people forever, but at the same time everyone is still their own self. idk, just it seems romantic love shoves all the members into a rigid box, at least traditionally. which is a huge turn off for me.
yes.
i don't see why we cannot combine all three of these and get a DNA powered LASERSCUBA.
i have never done a formal test but i know it goes really low and just a little bit up. the next song explores a little bit of this but doesn't push any limits.
on a related note, i've noticed i usually sing in the octave above what i probably should be singing in, but oh well.
this also reminds me of that one song idea that goes really low then takes a very quick transition to a very high part that i don't think i can sing.
ask me again in a few weeks and maybe i'll have a range demo prepared.

it comes down to personal opinion
people have different views on bad and get mad at each other really easily. that's the badness in action. and theres usually cases where neither side is actually wrong but the badness stems out of that.
this actually already happened but it hasn't been revealed to the public yet.
Calculus: Early Transcendentals (9th Edition)
this is such a good question that i feel like i have a really insightful answer but i cannot pull out the MOST beautiful one.
in my calc class a few days ago i learned about integreation by parts, though i think khan academy explained it way better than my class, by deriving the forumal off the product rule, which was really interesting to see.
though i feel like there's probably some more interesting equations that are even more beautiful, but i don't really remember it.

it's in the realm of possibility
i love you too.
right so lets clear that up. that whole system was a mistake, and i now live with some consequences of that (in the code it's still referred to as a Message).
the issue with a non-q&a page is, for non questions, what the hell do i say?
and i took it down for that reason but also because i had some really anoying people and my mental state was just not in the right place to be running it. i think i'm better now, and i think the anoying people found better things to do.
it was.
capitalization is a big thing for me, and i dont understand how i do it either- it's style based on feeling. the way i use capitalization is almost a form of emphasis. like bold and italics, you can capitalize a letter to emphasize it's importance.
proper nouns kinda do this but i dont really consider the rain as a proper noun, but more of a Fancy Concept that's probably a metaphor for something bigger than what it means literally. i don't remember what that metaphor would be and it's probably just something open to interpretation- i wrote that line on my stepdads ipad during dinner at the taco place.
it happened a long time ago. similar to how gravity was "invented," we didn't realize time was happening until we did and that moment is what we refer to as year 0. so in some sense, that's when time began. but that would mean things happened before time began which doesnt make sense, it's all those negative years, or what some people call BC (before clocks). we could say time began a lot longer but its hard to know when since no one realized the time was moving forward.
sometimes i forget that time exists and the moment that was now was actually years beforehand.

i've since went to them and the results off the top of my head were "not tone deaf" but "not even relative pitch," but there was something more interesting i learned on a tiktok video on accident: not being able to hear yourself, or worse, hearing yourself at a slight delay or pitch shift completely messes up your ability to sing. this is significant because my setup doesn't give any feedback into my ears (i wear headphones) so i'm just singing blindly. so i'm gonna look into all this when i get back to doing music production (currently on a wild code spree)
this is the exact opposite of what 2022-05-11 23:13 says and its equally infuriating when i get this feedback. it's awful. though it is a question so i don't know what i'm supposed to expect.
yes
Similar to the favorite song i made question. so the most recent song i added to my megaplaylist is this cool instrumental by bob james Where the Wind Blows Free hold on THIS WAS PUBLISHED ON MY BIRTHDAY TWO YEARS AGO WOAH. actually no spotify says it was from 1977 and no exact date.
it would be me complaining that i couldn't answer with a song that i've started writing but havent finished producing and publishing. but i also think it's hard to set a single favorite one. maybe at the current exact time, my favorite could be "mystery of life" or the song about the meteor, because the former has a really sick groove and feel to it (status=in production), and the latter has overall really good lyrics and melody
i don't know either but i remember seeing a lot of traffic went from playlist traffic
i am ok with the number of ratings i am getting

because 4 5 and 6 werent maintained. the games page entry for elemental 4 will explain this in more detail.
somewhat.
if i did it any time before, it wouldn't make it true.
it depends on how brittish you are feeling in the moment.
i don't really know what it means, but it just felt right. i knew once i improvised that bit, it was going to be in the final song, though at the time it was it's own song and not connected to mayday. i merged them eventually, realizing it would totally fit the vibe.
i would certainly back this company on kickstarter.
the brand where they don't actually sell you any of it.
I don't speak any of the languages Christ originally spoke, so it would be pretty hard to do that.
extremely little; i always wanted complete creative control over my work, the most she's ever been involved is for minor details during brainstorms, and seeing what i work on before it's done. also, i'm not dating her now for other reasons, so...
a corner
i wish i never got into it; too much time wasted making things way more complex than needed. music and videos wouldve been fun. but hey i get to do it this way, which makes me a little unique.
i think those are both very cool things, you can also try lyrics with music. three unique things to do and i love them all.

i feel like i've already moved away enough, maybe it was so gradual you didn't notice. i know one visual thing i want to emphasize in my videos is building alternate worlds and putting myself in them using greenscreen tech and motion tracking. not sure if this key difference is visible much but it's my intent and where stuff is going to head, but i first have to solve some workflow stuff related to videos first.
i believe it's already a bit personal but i'm not sure how i could explain how

i have never heard of this guy before
i am aware of that and what i've seen so far is it just takes time. if you have practical tips maybe you can get in touch over at me@old username.net and explain every way i'm bad at singing. the goal is improvement, and i had to start somewhere.
anywhere from 3 to 300,000
it can be improved
i've never understood pronunciation but i'm just going to assume that the /y/ was taken or some other language does something.

i just googled both of those words and i believe pontification is not autological
i don't recall saying exactly that but what i will say exactly is i think that a lot of people don't take this project very seriously.
no
it's a really nice game
already did. the issue was, at the time (this was years ago) we realized nothing about our workflows overlap at all. even now i don't think that much of our workflow overlaps despite both of us using blender now.
i rob you of your time.
they all suck
now that i'm not held by a date for any of my projects i want to have a nice experience making the videos, so the first step is figuring out how to make them without my computer lagging. keep in mind i have high end hardware, so a better computer is not the answer to this.
no, though if you isolate the same one aspect about everything, you might be able to find something that is "better" than another, but there is another property of [things] that you might ignore called "your personal opinion."
i don't think there's a single reason in the universe to not have closed it.
really soon
yes, but remember that every point is some amount west (and south) of where you were prior.
time
thank you
it needs some more motivation. consider directing vast amounts of electricity towards the engine.
this is an example of getting the right answer through the wrong means. there's a much simpler reason why i'm waiting until april 30th to release the new song (song and video was finished around apr 4)
love is the word that describes it. you won't know what it feels like until you truly experience it.

don't get something too cheap, or too expensive, unless you know exactly what you are wanting to do with it. check the specifications because if you don't you might accidentally buy yourself something worse than a chromebook in terms of usability. brands i would go to because i know their laptops are decent: lenovo, dell, and apple.
i think they are cool though I have not used them. And yeah, it would be neat to see old username content through an RSS feed. I'm getting to that eventually.
do not recommend, why i refused to give a clear point of what exact laptop model. i actually dont recommend going the overkill computer route unless you have purpose to push the hardware past it's limit. though this laptop doesnt really have too much overheating issues; i remember there was a linux bug or something that led this thing to not shutting its fan off + maxing out cpu frequencies, and damn near preparing this thing to melt. other than that its usually pretty good at stuff but it will not run "cool." if you can get by with a desktop you should do that.
no
dell models are really weird because there are multiple with the same model number, or i'm confusing them around. i also do not see much point to this. it's a dell xps 15, with really nice specs, from about 2-3 years ago.
no
is what
i thought the computer spec question was good.
another box that is even more fragile
real
depends how high the meep is, it might fall out of my hearing range!
tldr: nearly maxed out
i am generally against giving out spec and software information as it might entice someone to spend money they probably don't need to spend to do what they want to do, but my desktop is so far down the upgrading rabbit hole that only a stupid person would actually copy my setup:
desktop is a custom built desktop around end of last year (one of the worst times to build a computer since i was born), it has an AMD Ryzen 9 5950X, 64GB 3200MHz DDR4 ram from T-Force, a 1tb WD_BLACK SN850 ssd, and one Nvidia RTX 3090 Founders Edition, all thrown on some asus motherboard in a Meshify C case. yeah, its overkill. the motive for the highest end gpu was so DaVinci Resolve would run without frame drops, but that is not the case and it still runs like dog shit, i am looking into alternative software/writing my own program. i paid for this using various life savings and a part time job, and took advantage of a lot of discounts on parts.
laptop is about 2 years old and is a Dell XPS 15. has an 8 core i9-9980HK and a Nvidia GTX 1650M. my stepdad bought me this computer for christmas of 2019, and overkilling the specs i asked for.
and no nothing i have has RGB lighting, i do that in post production.
edit 2025-05-13: m3 mac studio. 256 ram. 60 core gpu. minimum storage tier of 1 tb.you
by the time i die
i am macro starved right now so its not what you're expecting. idk if these are all considered input devices by your standards but they do input data so:
- main mechanical keyboard
- drawing tablet
- davinci resolve speed editor
- a mouse
- midi keyboard with 49 keys
- a camera
- an xbox kinect
signika is the one youre thinking of. however, if you're about to just grab it and use it to make stuff exactly the same as i do, think of something else; you'll feel more unique choosing something like josefin or nunito. also i am using a new font on alot of experimental things, across website AND videos, which is recursive, as it has a lot of variable axes and looks overall nice.
edit 2025-05-13: recursive and the name family, from arrowtype.com. it's made by one person, who is very cool.birthday
O.K.
unfortunatly, no.
i will think about this one.
sing about it, and maybe drink some water
that is physically impossible.
sveltekit and mongodb (edit 2023: postgresql) stuff. i won't go too in depth to how the structures are defined since that is a currently changing situation and is in itself very complex.
edit 2025-05-13: sqlite
when you send a question, that goes to a sveltekit endpoint that throws your request in a database. when i go to the question respond page, it then shows me the question requests, i type a response using a gui editor (for doing multiple paragraphs, and so on), then send the resulting answer to the question database. the public pages just pull from the database and so does the search.
edit 2025-05-13: this is still true but my site uses hono and very few other dependencies.
you of course can go the entire full-stack adventure that i currently have, but if you want a lower tech solution, you can utilize free form systems like netlify forms / google forms / discord webhooks, then you just push a new version of your website with new data. this can be combined with what i mention below about svelte.
the scripting only gets as complex as you let it. you will see there are quadrillions of benefits of moving to component based website construction, and if svelte isn't your style you also have react and vue. there's some other frameworks too that you can look up to build your website, but i do know react is a gold standard that isn't going anywhere (unlike sveltekit being very experimental; they changed a bit of how API routes are written so that has been one of the many blockades i've had to deal with updating my site and getting the new homepage out). now, one of the benefits of this component based architecture is the fact that once you have a component for displaying a question, you can move it out to a database, and from there you can do anything you want: easy permalinks, search, and more!
edit 2025-05-13: since then i learned to become a much simpler woman. you'll find the search link doesn't work. by making the site simpler, it became faster. i deleted pagination and put everything on one, fast loading page. no longer did i need a search page, but rather CMD+F on your keyboard.
i hope this basic outline helps you, but since you seem to not really know javascript or svelte, that would be your first start (or react + next.js, that is a really nice option too)
i want to do some more stuff with fast motion graphics in whatever my style is cause i dont do those enough.
select C on your next multiple choice answer
yes but please do not test that limit
it's really really really really really fancy and i would answer with a really really clever joke but i do not know enough about them and im tired right now.
make sure to feel original when doing so. there's one thing i'd like to see someone else do which is what "the vault" is, cause i don't really plan to do anything to that (i don't really see the need to hide too much, and the vault was really off-topic anyways)
react is an industry standard and svelte is really nice to use. if you're looking at going into the industry react is a must but if you wanna be on the edge of new technology give svelte a try.
it is possible
basics: run lighthouse and see your accessibility score
it would be a little odd

just you wait
they protect you from the cold a little bit
it's a pretty standard question

maybe
i've only driven the f150 and maybe a chevrolet. i'm not too into cars and with the limited experience i have with the 5 above, this is going to be very biased/wrong. i can definitely say that they all definitely drive.
too nerdy for even myself to handle so be careful
nowhere. the fun has stayed a constant level.
you're supposed to send these types of questions to yourself
these few are a result of a few things
- being lazy to remove them
- the new question system supporting a "rejected" case where it shows that for direct links, but NOT on the main listing.
- the fact that the "dev2" branch that this change is on is stuck in limbo until a few other website things are fixed, including the new homepage, which is not currently responsive and will break on mobile devices, it also changes a lot of the site's design so i have had to change alot of other pages just to get the thing to look the same (the videos page had a lot of work done but overall it looks nearly identical).
you can ignore those blank questions, i'll get to fixing it in the next few weeks or so...
i promise it's all worth the wait... i hope.
exist and make the most of it
sometimes, be careful and make friends with only the best. for example, my best friends know my content isnt a joke and don't [negatively] laugh and bully it.
i think im okay
it's a letter
have a good time, but also survive life. either way, please don't waste the time you have.
on you
horid. im using davinci resolve because it runs finally but halfway into making mayday i found that it doesnt really run. or to be specific it hates my current graphics card's 4gb of VRAM. i'm looking into the newer ones but they are a tad of money especially in the current market.
the toolkit is being remade (again) but as a completely different thing, this time looking at actually streamlining the video production process instead of overcomplicating it. the first thing i want in it is the ability to take an mp3 file, then annotate EVERY point in the file where something happens: lyrics, accent percussion, random sounds. then be able to drive all keyframes off of those instead of having to manually place them ever time, as that is the main killer for time i think right now
theres some other plans that build off the marker tool for animation and recording but ill consider the possibilities later so i dont overwhelm myself
but but but but. that isnt happening yet. my next video has a very time-relevant deadline that i cant just push a few days later, let alone months or years of development and theorizing. so THAT music video is being done right NOW with the same shitty tech we made mayday on. i improved my voice a bit and the general song production process, but it still is nowhere near perfect.
please ask this question again in a few months thanks
yeah it was this person. it went like this
fun fact, i also used a photo of some of their concrete in the mayday video.
keep looking. the world is too big to have nothing interesting.
i literally have no idea, blink once and miss a century.
i dont know chord notation very well so heres a screenshot of the first 8 bars
i know
i'm from the United States, which you may have heard of. I haven't ever heard of it until i started living in it.
i'm not sure. do you?

i never heard of this creator but yeah my content is inspired by them
on the way
a song about my age
this website is the museum.
get outside
i don't know what you are talking about but everything has been real the entire time. if you are refering to the fact im posting more on instagram about the production process, i have been able to work on the arts a little more due to school's exam season ending. i plan to get mayday's video done within the next few weeks. im feeling generous, here's another sneak peak photo for people seeing the questions page
you should put toppings on it
same as the videos: blackmagic fusion and blender. but after the next video i'm going to switch the software up.
make a mean nag ram
unless you told them, probably not
depends when you check. for example when I'm answering this question it is Tuesday.
pneumonia and died is so hard from what I remember. I think the the y=mx+7b bit is really easy.
are you holding a slice of bread?
i have a few bad songs, one of them is literally built around the idea of bad.
you should host your own show for this. my guess is 8
i do not know what you are referring to
more than a dream because the little pause inside of the chorus

new cannan is good but crazy raining is a song i love so much.
my girlfriend called it a megaphone, which makes sense as it is what the words are coming out of. you could picture it as whatever other addiction kids are getting into these days (i for one have no idea what stupid thing they're doing)
its not that obvious but im currently 17, nearing 18, which is extremely nice because i don't have many bills to take care of. my family is quite financially stable, which is why i don't have to spend a large chunk of time working a job to pay stuff, etc. i plan to go to college for something in the computer science field, as it's what i love to do and i'm highly proficient in it, and it just so happens to be that that stuff pays ... a lot. at that point in my life, and also during college (later half of this year), i will definetly have less time to devote to content but i really hope that it will still have SOME amount of time, that way i can get stuff out to the world as i have a lot of ideas in the song writing department. what ive been trying to do for years is automate parts of the workflow so that making things is a quicker ride, but that so far has proven ... less than effective. maybe things will change and i will succeed in my attempts to automate stuff and making videos will be snap snap quick (still many many hours, but less than say 30+ hours per minute of video produced). and of course i accept dontations but you obviously cannot pay bills on $22 a month or something. but im not paying bills with my donations yet; instead that money is going towards a savings account that i cannot really interact with (it's deposit only, unless i get a parent to unlock it for me, which this is only because im a current minor and this restriction clears in a few months). against my will this account was setup, which i think was really smart of my parents, as there is a very healthy amount of "starting adult money" i guess we could call it (will not be sharing actual numbers). i have withdrawn from it only a couple of times, most notably to purchase the current desktop computer i'm using, which felt amazing because it was one of my first real purchases of magnitude, out of "my" own money (slowly collected over years of gifts and some part time work).
it's good enough you probably shouldn't donate to me, as i dont ever plan to rely off that money in any sense.
also i will take this time to say i am thankful to my parents for being nice people and practically giving me the means of being able to produce old username not everyone gets that chance and i feel bad for them. and since not everyone gets the shot i have been given, i might as well go as far as i can (what the idea of old usernameis).
it was written as a sveltekit application. the project is in a really weird stance of "being remade as a different game under the same github repository except i haven't done any of that actual work so its basically the original github repository with a different name but this is the source code for the game you might be looking for.
see 2022-01-20 20:49
you decide that one
many
just look at the source file, it doesnt let me copy and paste it.
maybe you are
i know at least one, so i would not be surprised that there are more.
will hit stores hopefully by next week
it's an audio file related to old name's tanks, yes. i forgot what it was for though.
in alot of my love-like songs where i mention a "you" character, it's going to be something like someones True Love, and while i would say that the person is to be unknown, i am currently dating someone so that "you" person would be her. if i wasn't dating i'd still have written the song like that, and it would refer to a person i havent met or doesnt exist. if you want to be a fangirl or fanboy or something, you can picture youself in that spot.
settings -> language -> English, UK. I am not in the UK but i prefer the dates that way, or well i truly love them yyyy/mm/dd but that isnt an option.
i think that was only because they wanted to help me specifically, which was really very nice. if you are gee's friend you might be able to get something but as with me they are very busy nowadays.
i don't remember being told that 4 measures was the required amount to make a song. but what i do know, is the song feels so right at the timings i wrote / imagined, at least t ome
i dont feel like going back to the file but i don't believe this measurement. it's two parts four lines each.
i think it's good in a progression sense. i'm going to be working on improving every aspect of it in my upcoming projects (i have more song ideas).
it's intended to be enjoyed
because i havent actually finished the website it doesn't list the download url for it, but it does exist mayday.mp3.
MAYBE YOU ALL SHOULD LISTEN BEFORE SENDING QUESTIONS ABOUT IT
how about you just listen to the song lol.
a good friend of mine but we don't talk much anymore
enough for people to notice im a fast typer, but not fast enough that it is a big deal
yeah
no. it's only for learning purposes.
a year low enough that you can't relate it to real life (humanity did not have smartphones and time travel devices in the fifth century), but it also holds an interesting story in it of itself. for example, it's a leap year.
old name caruso
old name caruso
never played it but i would guess the default one is good enugh
you have no idea what the game even is, so no (it's a lot more than what you think)
zero dollars. no one has donated yet.
no
with the other things, this just takes time to master. but one important thing is whatever you write has to fit into whatever the music is, or the other way around. i think the easiest way, but only since it's natural, is to write both at the same time. but then once you have a melody, you might want to repeat it with different words; at that point it's a game of what fits. also literary devices that you may have learned in school but now you're the one writing them.
the fact that the timing's you have to press keys do not always line up with the line in the game. for example, in capslaw the rendering of all this is changing heavily so the line or square that corresponds with the letters will let you see EXACTLY when to type keys. another issue with the current way stuff is visible is the speed changes variably, this is so the spacing between words is the same (though timmy added a lot of manual space); in another project of mine that's using this typing mechanic, we got a very simple solution to getting a constant speed line + normal looking spaces between words.
yes but if you want to use it right now it then no.
yeah on monday
once i get the everything list done, i'll probably get the discord webhook and rss feed going up (yeah i've had this planned for years just never got to it)
edit 2025-05-13: paper clover dot net slash rss dot xml. it's on the homepage for safe keeping.it has 24
the fact that it's being made at all.
she kinda just looked at me and things went from there
just start somewhere. i learned a lot of my stuff by making games, then learning web development off of the basic knowledge i had. thing is, you can't really use GameMaker 8 anymore lol.
no
What do I do there then?
its not actually a random idea. it's a connecting point to the next scene that i had with the bridge. and the scene before it ends out on a dock next to water. all you gotta do is ... insert something sensible that connects before and after. take the viewer on a journey, but get them safely home.
i asked my friend jonas and he asked his cousin matteo who asked his wife tracy who asked her non-binary friend alex in which they replied "i dont know".
2137 but i need like 16 more
i lost the packaging but i had this really nice like choco+pb+fudge mix that was really good
you decide.
i forgot how it works but i know it gives you a good head start.
good
i don't keep track
speak the correct language
it changes every day. right now it's that one eminem song from long ago.
maybe. it will be uploaded when it's done.
maybe
it will just be a description of what it was and contain file downloads and other links.
no. first thing i published video wise was test video 1. but it actually goes farther back to times i don't remember
for some reason the person that sent me this question hasn't tried to open the project. yyz files are compressed projects that contain all the data and assets.
they always do. do the destinations exist, sometimes!
what content. i havent published anything in what feels like the past forever.
stop bringing it up
probably
What are you gonna do?
stay inside. nothing changes.
i tried before it was pretty bad compared to using a real piece of music software.
they are called url parameters in the thing i use.
no
because its an S building. that one i dont remember being a reference to anything, but "nate headquarters" is the name of one of the wifi networks i connect to sometimes.
i have absolutely no idea what you are talking about
a writing series i have written and killed twice now, but i may revive it in the future (similar plot universe, but new writing and new characters) within the next year.
i made a video on how to do this
sometimes you can play the instruments, but without the instruments.
oh hell yeah.
sure, but GD will not accept music until i am verified which i do not care to go through at this time.
the ability to make art fast without losing quality

no unless you're the one who sent 30k-40k requests at my server attempting to destroy the website. i know exactly who did it and i hate them very much.
it's "password"
why not both?
not letting yourself stop you is sometimes an important challenge you have to overcome, but also at times you will have to stop yourself.
no
because donations. there's actually more than that list but anonymous.
no
some cool crazy person donates like 20 a month or something. i think they are very nice.
uh
yes! look into netlify forms, or cloud function-based routes so you can handle a form submission. in the old days, i did this for my site, sent the questions to a discord webhook, then had my static site handle generating questions on the page. the system wasnt the best since you had to rebuild the ENTIRE site to publish new content, where that is no longer the case.
it would be an interesting feeling, i guess.
not big enough.
an idea, sketch it out, put it in a daw, add chords, add drums, add stuff, add voice, add add add... then win. it takes forever
because
at the time, yes
yes
no since they are a source of chocolate.
sometimes i [yawn] ask myself that.
i guess i will have to get you a housewarming gift for your new house in Cape Town.
girlfriend
its a pizza on pineapple

start making content
i don't know what that means. questions are asked so that you get a human answer, not an automated response.
because you want to know.
i didn't know other people besides LunaPogi used that term.
i don't know.
nope. the key is to not care, but not everyone says that's a good idea.
who says i didnt already start one that you're already in.
when you make a time machine
not enough to be called feminine but not masculine enough to be the stereotype.
no, but there will be details about how THIS site is programmed since that isnt a resource people have put online yet.
no
i could try

no
there's so many uniquely awesome things in that video, but for the sake of a question i'm gonna say the part with the 10 lights circling around "1000000000."
when ever
minimum time: 12 minutes, maximum time 8 business days. if you're wondering why the recent stream of questions have been answered so quickly, it's cause im currently deploying new changes to the q+a site and i need to test it out, which means digging through questions.
peanut butter but its made out of lego bricks
fill the space with what makes most sense. i've found that this is actually not the easiest, but it is possible.
i didn't know there was one. as far as i know, i coined that term.
yes
i know one of them i made the melody when i was 14 or so. i have yet to get any tips besides the audio recorder method.
sillyyyyyyyyyyyyy
this is old usernamenot spirit airlines. or wait no, they don't have the taste of richness, do they.
learning as a hobby for 8+ years and i know a little bit of everything but most of my skill points are thrown into web development.
oh for sure i just placed an inventory of amathyst in my minecraft server
idk probably before yesterday
i ran date
on my vps:
Mon Dec 27 01:39:01 UTC 2021
no since text usually doesn't fly around in real life
which thing. i forgot.
too many, but it's becoming such an amazing production. taking a small sanity break around the holidays to catch up with friends and play some videogames, but i am focusing my efforts on something to publish around new years that shows off a bit of what i've kept secret.
its a style preference. some scenes in my projects use eevee, some use cycles, some use fusion's software renderer, some use it's opengl one.
it wasn't
spending wise, yeah.
it literally isn't.
we use cryptomatte so 32-bit float OpenEXR files are required. since those get huge (20mb per frame), if we don't have any vfx planned that needs cryptomatte we just use png sequences. alpha is included only if we need a fusion-generated background. i have no experience with blender exporting to a final video but a similar approach can be used. hope this helps.
so it doesnt fall off
many
yes
chocolate
an official us holiday
when it's done
there's something going on in the city
you tell me
no
I will take this into account during mixing.
when i finish it you can find it on the music or videos page

with blender
only to make sure it works. if i have to test if the question publish code works, i just delete the posted question after responding, but if i need to test if the request sender works, i can hit the funky "delete" question in my dashboard.

Goodbye
paperclover.net/q+a/20211215220632
Apparently, I know that "URL parameters" are ?key=value&key=value etc. What are THESE ones?the thing after the ? is a query parameter. this gets confusing quick, so the framework i use only refers to the /route/[param]/etc as a param and the other as a query. read more how SvelteKit handles it here. they're also called slugs.
no. the source will be made available around new years but that will not make it "open source" because the license for the code is gonna be really weird (to prevent people from rehosting direct copies)
not planned but i totally want to throw a lick in there.
yeah
get someone else to be a competing die-hard fan and have a "who is the biggest fan" battle.
or just politely ask to not.
yeah i'll be doing a visual cover of a yes song in the future.
i didn't make it yet.
you've come to the wrong place since i'm the same way, but i wouldn't consider the computer to be a non-useful activity. to each their own though.
because no one offered to change it.
we hate that
yes
i forgot. i'm an introvert so it makes it more confusing.
gave them all away so 0
good
way too many hours on minecraft with friends (loving the new caves). it's causing content delays but whatever
i lost count but more than 1 so that's healthy
a healthy amount
no
you will be the judge of that
sounds cool.
when it's done
i would love to learn how to play real instruments, but the most important thing to play is the keyboard since you can synth up any instrument you want.
because a lot of changes with the code are being done and i broke the ui. the new code actually rewrites a lot of api stuff to be really easy for me to fetch dynamic data on the webite....
i do plan to make a short loopable version of the first verse, maybe.
it already did like a year or more ago?
more like aaayyyyyy and eeeeeee. gotta spice it up a lil.
my power never went out.
totally.
maybe
yeah
the one thousand something second one
1.5 seconds or something.
the self. that's why i havent gotten to making some pages i've linked to, but i'll totally link to the apps page but it will 404 until a few months later when i actually make it. i do that alot. however, earlier i was having some site issues so i did install some analytics to see how much viewership i actually have and WOAH.
i asked the letter G
i really don't know anything for this. i'm too stuck up in my own creativity to remember any other things, but i know bill wurtz was a huge inspiration to me. also yes but they are quite old.
you forget that country and state are sometimes the same thing.

i forgot the chord progressions already, but it probably has something spicy.

it's growing at a constant rate, at least from a development standpoint. if you mean from an audience standpoint; i have absolutely no idea, or care.
there is no collection it has already been eaten.
yes.
you're thinking too hard.
weird questions sometimes come in, that's what the [DENY] button on my dashboard is for.
at least 40
why not
maybe because it's pronunciation is so weird
it's a love and escape song.
quite cold outside so i'd avoid at the moment if possible.
use your brain, and don't let anyone stop you.
when the video is done
just the right amount.

that isn't a question.
the longest video on the idea list is well over 1000. the longest published one is about 205 or so.

at the moment i havent really been consuming much media, so it's really hard for me to think of any characters.
(i really want to answer this question with a character but it's been 10+ minutes, so i will leave you without a character)

yes

amazing
how about you write an ai that figures out the best way to do that.

somewhere in between
i honestly forgot
have a question permalink as your prize.
:)
sorry, wrong number
all of it has sense.
i'm not sure what this is talking about. everything is named either the default or what the object would be.
there's less code to write vs react, but it's more cutting edge technology that is unstable and new.
it already is! but the game is getting renamed to "Capslaw", a more generic game engine for this style of typing challenge, with "Phoenix, WRITE!" being one of the built-in campaigns. GUI tools for authoring custom levels, cutscenes, and campaigns coming soon, i just don't know exactly when.
1%
yes. there's a lot of positive feedback from the people i've sent it to. i am excited for the video.
if i remember to or not.
the time i wrote something that was like
options: (options.options as any).options
or something in that fashion.
the way i say "please" in the lyrics hits so hard.
3 minutes and 47 seconds
yes
this whole website is written with it, of course i love it.

it is hard but it gets easier the more time you spend on it.
visual studio code. i program with javascript/typescript but you can use anything.
i don't spend much time on twitch or most of social media on the consumption side, except for tiktok, which i scroll through sometimes. i like how you dont have to choose what to watch, it's the opposite of how old usernameworks, a site where you choose exactly what you want and there are no tools that select stuff for you, besides a nonexistant randomizer.
yes
yes
my dontators, my girlfriend, and maybe even myself if i am feeling extra spicy.

yes
brilliant.

i have not.

yes.
unbelievable.
this is hard. i don't have any good tips for this besides to practice and keep trying!
no

it's okay.

yes! I do this alot.
Ps. I like your videos :)

ALSO very good.
don't fret i plan on increasing the rate 100 fold as soon as i can.
i know for a fact that you are not mira, so don't claim to be her.
you're asking the wrong old name, but i would start by opening your editing software.
thank you
no and yes

not being famous, trying not to let it get to my head
random icon i found on font awesome. then earlier this year i actually drew the icon myself. i love it.
what the fuck is "elemental 7". i only made elemental 4. then took it down due to unforeseen scaling issues.
there's too many and they're all written way too well.
i don't know. go ask someone else.
the truth
yes
edit 2025-05-13: enter cotyledoni don't know what that is, but as for roblox i do not play it.
sometimes?
{"answer":"that would be horribly incorrect"}
it quite literally is already released online and open source. if you really care for the zip file i can prebuild you one, but that shouldn't be needed.

you start with a core idea, then develop a really god damn catchy melody+lyrical bits. Look at the mayday song's chorus for example, it's a really memorable melody, with some very meaningful stuff packed in them.
if youre unsure on what core idea is, take a walk outside a bit.

it's easier said than done. i get this feeling a ton. you think of something and how cool it'l be when you get it, but when it comes time to actually do the thing, it's so intimidating that you cant.
my solution for this is just to force yourself to take the dive, and actually do it. that's how a lot of Pheonix, WRITE!'s features were implemented. i was dreading the code for the duet but i actually got it down in a short amount of time after i forced myself to start working on it.
anyways, ashley is a good example of someone who can force themself to do the task. and v3rb is not so good at this.
oh fuck yeah. but that's not how our world works, does it?

i remember mentioning the X:\ drive but its actually moved to C:\Cloud, either way i think the SFX you are talking about are a part of free sample packs, which i have over 30gb of. i am not allowed to share the packs directly, and i forget the origins of a handful of them. this goes for most of stuff in the media store, which is worrying because there is original assets in there that i made, and due to the current organization, i cannot share any of it easily.
maybe it's better i keep my media store private, that way i can feel more original while others have to find their building blocks themselves.
maybe if you make it yourself.

PROBABLY the software bit. theres gonna be 3 pages to this: apps, games, and nerd gear. they are different types of software, they get their own pages. in the meantime, the next game im releasing tomorrow will be on itch.io

good morning
now heres the thing, SOME OF IT. i never fully learned blender, and i only really use it for modeling complex things, but "complex" here is a super relative term. i want to learn how to use it for almost everything.
at the moment
I WILL BE MAKING COVER ARTS. eventually. theres a thumbnail
property on the artifact data which is percisely for this reason.
i dont understand the question. its windows 11 with intune configuration, not a customized iso.
question how you even opened the game in october 2021. i don't own the domain to it and the code has been archived for months.
a trick i use when i get in this situation is to stop using the internet.
i mean so did i. dont we all use 1920x1080 or did i invent that?
the real answer is someone told me to play genshin impact. i really wish i could've said there was a bigger "trigger moment" to this.
however, after i thought about that, i realized my only issue with windows was speed, and the last time i'd've used it was years back on my older laptop. the thing i use now is an absolute powerhouse of a computer compared to before. and it seems to run windows fine. so powerful pc + 'luck' = i can use windows.
so i decided to try out windows and microsoft services (a friend i know is always raving about how cool it is). they are very intresting. so now i use onedrive, office, edge, intune, the whole ordeal. it runs wonderfully most of the time.
the reason i grabbed windows 11 just happened to line up with the timings. it was gonna come out later in the year so i decided to get it right out of the gate so i didnt have to deal with any more migration pain than i had to. (i was running the early early build of it)
linux lets you customize every aspect about it very easily. that is a plus but also a minus, because someone like me is going to want to do absolutely everything possible. instead, i'm focusing that energy of customation to the stuff that will actually matter: the actual video building tools, music production, and making this website.
i prefer my coffee with svelte components dipped in typescript.
i already did
being able to get something finally working and also having that thing be the most interesting piece of code you've written (creative toolkit's resource system)
it could work.
i have not
i'm deciding how that will work right now, since all of that is going to change - theres another revolution in store about to happen.
consider not using it at all, or 'old nameso.' im quite sure all the music on old usernameme is properly tagged though.

the 2.2 features are quite interesting. i've messed around with it a bit and the camera controls are quite fun to play around with. that and the direction changing and platformer mode stuff. i can't wait to see what others do with it, especially situations where levels' music can be dynamic based on what you do (looping music, alternate routes, etc). if only the editor was easier to use for people, would this be the most legendary platformer to ever exist.

it changes a lot but right now i love this one song from 10cc

you need some form of brain juicer, but not too fancy of one. you can also spend an hour a day writing on a whiteboard or talking into a webcam or both at the same time.
not usually but i know the language
it should also be noted i moved to windows 11 as of around july this year. however the core of the process remains the same.
the first step is realizing that anything is possible with software, the second step is not using blender for everything
scss, because it looks like regular css. you'll have a nicer time with it. unless youre a python nerd, then go regular sass. remember, having a css preprocessor and all that is handy but not required

yes, didnt use it much, nothing much. i like gamemaker's 2d stuff way more than unity, and never learned enough to make anything super fancy in the 3d engine. if i needed to do a 3d game project ever, i'd probably just do it in some web stuff, not sure exactly how—i work best alone and with typescript.

i checked and its about 242. i dont log deleted questions, since theyre just deleted. (this also extends to email information, everything about a question besides the final q&a data that you see on the page is removed from existance)
anything can be a question, see 2020-12-11 08:38, however i have some non question questions like 2020-11-21 14:49. i guess the q&a is just a simple anonymous communication channel with a ~20 hour delay

not polished enough but i bet some might implement some of the features better than i did.
i'm sure you're mistaken.
no, computers like to work in cool temperature controlled environments
you can peek how badly it's made here, but it's written in typescript with visual studio code, and uses a slightly custom and slightly outdated webpack setup. whatever works.
real trick is to not begin with a thing as complex as elemental 4. if you're asking where to begin, i cannot say how well you'll be if you try something really complex. but web dev doesnt have to be complex, so i wouldn't tell you to not try javascript and all.

they both were invented at the same time, kind of how every part of sequencer has to be written at the same time for it to make any sense.

ooooh i don't remember the difference. tbh the winters in this state are getting so fucked up i dont even know when they start or end because the clouds do not seem to follow ANY rules anymore when it comes to snow.
you should make a question page so i can ask you that, but in general asking questions is the only way to get anywhere. a lot of my progress is asking myself "what if i do this." and now i'm here building a very overcomplicated but minimal video editor.
either with scratch blocks, batchfile scripting, or gamemaker 8.1 lite d&d blocks

do what?
You may have heard that it doesn't really matter at all. Yes, it really doesn't matter how you start. Some languages are fancier than others meaning you may have to worry about certain things that you may not in others (data types, memory management, clousures, etc...), but the general logic building part of them is shared between them all. However, different languages may do things differently, so here's a taste of some of the popular ones and what they do differently.
For where, just google something or use a youtube tutorial, as the internet is full of free resources to learn. There's also the mdn web tutorials for getting into web dev which is my sort of specialty and i am a bit biased towards recommending it, but in reality you should choose what area of programming is actually interesting.
i don't actually know what people know but the main piece of knowledge i'd need out is i have not stopped making videos i'm just working on a lot of video-production tools and am forcing myself to make those before i continue with any new videos. it's been a big delay in publishing so people ask me about it sometimes.
i also dislike owning dogs.
it was ok
of course, when i get to adding singleplayer mode to elemental 4 you will be able to add and remove them.
wait i dont know what youre talking about. i have not made the singleplayer mode yet. we are talking about differernt things.
a video editor, which is why that is my current project. it's also not a remake. i think i'm done with remakes, and onto original software/videos.
through the question page, for testing yes, but i remove them from the page or press the [deny] button.
for actual questions, i found a faster way where i just ask my brain it without typing it out.
you
that's you to decide.
btw it doesn't need to be useful to others, or even yourself, unless you think you've actually learned enough to try one of those. either way doing things that may be called "useless" or have no real end product, still always yield something invaluable: knowledge and experience. and i cannot stress that fact enough, even if you think you wont. trust me you will.
tldr just make anything, even basic tic tac toe game or a old username question search. (i'll probably try both of those at somepoint myself too)
yes
no
i forgot a lot of them but i know actual questions are cool but if they are actual questions they take longer to properly answer.
i am a human being
you would have to explain what exactly you mean first.
because justin made some rad music that even i cant stop listening to. well at the time that was the case.
back in 2018 it wasn't running so i wanted to try to make my own. the result was medium. i'd say the issues around it all came from me telling others that i was making it, and being bugged and rushed that it wasn't done. in 2020, i remade that game, mainly cause filip asked about it and wanted to rerun the old game, which i said "what if we fixed some of the big bugs", which turned to me rewriting this whole thing into the crazy new one it is now.
i never knew how to calculate how to display those element trees, only reason we have them in the game now is because zelo made a almost working one, but it has cases that it breaks. if i was zelo, i wouldn't ever even released that feature to the main game, even if the half working solution is better than having a blank screen. i'm just not able to do that kind of thing
this goes to the new thing that people probably just think i don't know how, singleplayer mode. i have everything in my head and all the edge cases figured out, it's just a lot to add because i'd want it to be is a lot more than what elemental lite ever did (the approach i had on this project was way better than either of elemental 4's approaches). the reason singleplayer doesn't exist now is 1. rushed to get the game out of beta, 2. i myself was getting tired/bored of working on the project for any longer. i'm also realizing a lot of things should be changed in regards to code structure (i mean a full refactor where every bit of code is moved again, plus changing the way servers/mods are internally structured).
we have two main lessons with this kind of thing: for the love of god do not ever use the raw dom apis when building something big. elemental 4's ui is built off of this one template file (/game/views/game.html
), then querySelector and createElement for the rest. This happened because old e4 and elemental lite started as just the element renderer, and that approach worked fine, until you add a trillion popups, highly dynamic data, and a settings page with 9 tabs (2 were left out of the real game), it is very cancer. my other lesson would be to think more about code structure and if something isn't a working idea, don't stick with it until the end (e4 is a huge mess because theres this folder called shared
which does not depend on any node/browser apis, and could theoretically be imported to allow the e4 server to be played on a separate client, but this is a bit too far and not a good abstraction, as this now limits what interaction these apis have with the game itself)
i have a new answer actually as of writing, but the above is an interesting rant / discussion on the game so it stays. i'd want to figure out how to fully stop indexedDB corruption but have no idea as to how it occurs. i've given up and put a test if it's corrupted, and to just redownload/reindex the whole thing.
i got like a billion things to say about this. writing clean code, even if the implementation is messy, is such an awesome feeling.
i don't know but i don't think it's a giant big deal
i am, but the thing with being human is a lot of people don't do that much, and i don't know who would want to be like those other humans.
sometimes, i should probably do it now
that's for you to decide
yes i am old nameso. good job finding me.

i knew they were selling some merchandise, but no one would've ever thought of a themed water bottle.
it is used in javascript decorators and i love those. the @ meaning "at" is also cool and i forget it's a thing (kind of how & means "and"), and i just use it for email addresses and user+hostnames. i guess just never in the habit
if it was free they wouldn't be able to profit
get a time machine and go back in time to when you sent this question, and watch
11:43:46
not sure. but those are popular games though. i was more into the editor aspects of geometry dash which is why i said that, and portal 2 is just fantastic. another game i love and played recently was celeste (got to the start of 7b before is stopped).
camera rotation and dynamic music(idk if this is set for 2.2) is gonna be awesome
i have written ~5 virtual pages of plans to implement today. it probably will take multiple days though.
most browsers should have a resize thing at the bottom right of the question container. you can click and drag it. there is also a scrollbar if it gets very long. i have a limit of 1000 or something characters but i might change that as now that i think about it, it could be larger

ah yes, how wonderful.
I honestly love all of those you listed above (though i dont use the C/C++/C# much ever).
- html - powerful markup
- css - cool styling, though i'd use scss
- js - paradoxically fast and dynamic, though i'd use typescript
- c / c++ - low level but power. not a fan of headers though.
- c# - a cooler version of java
- php - simple to use dynamic web, but don't go overboard.
from my perspective it is a game changing automation tool.
taken down because of the current website situation. i'm actually rewriting it all from nearly scratch, but the current one is held up only by insane nginx configurations that do not fully work. it was either questions or vault to keep working so i chose questions.
i don't really remember how that game does it's loading but i swear it checked for errors.

i mean, i would've expected there to be a ton more elements since the voting stuff was very low. i did NOT expect the vpn detection stuff to break, but it DID.
because there was a bug and also no one was expecting 600 new users.
i don't archive it myself but i believe it is archived to some degree.

while they both aren't super interesting to me, the difference between them is one i'd never find any interest and the other one maybe.
The default mode of content creation seems to be MONEY instead of PASSION. I can't change that but I can at least opt myself out of the default.
yes but only if they checked https://#username#.net/q+a.
It was originally used when i had folders and files, and i didn't trust the "sort by date" feature, and i instead used a name prefix of YYYY-MM-DD, with leading zeros, which would cause "sort by name" to rather sort by the date instead. I use dashes since slashes aren't allowed in pathnames. For the website, I don't actually use this system anymore but rather have the date put in a separate file alongside the display name. Since i used that for file naming i decided to use it for everything else too.
that's a question for you.
give me one second (rolls die) ... 1. yeah, i usually have better luck.

oh hello there. glad to see it's working.
step one is to figure out the problem.
no.
woah that's a compliment. thing is the "new version" i have in my head, which is like 1000x better, but also takes in 100x the work, as it's almost a full recreation. it's a little hard to describe.
the classic format answer.
ah yes, how wonderful.
there should be a divide by symbol on the calculator. if it's text based, try the / operator. if that doesn't work, try the ÷ operator. if you're using latex you can use \frac{x}{0}
to write it out.
yes.
no. i prefer to answer them by hand, but i do have an auto collection and processing part. everything but the answering is automated.
i don't know but as soon as it was too late there wasn't any going back. i just have to do this.
no it just sends it. i should totally add that.
no. i'm sorry.
i don't think i can decide.
i'm sorry. here's some ideas
no.

oh for sure. if you are a mermaid, you can start today if that's what you want to do.
i don't know any of them yet.
i was thinking no but i changed my mind; yes.
i should be asking you that.

ah yes, how wonderful.
oh you know i'm doing good.
ah yes, how wonderful.

1. they aren't like the bill wurtz monday videos. 2. i thought that was clear enough. guess not? the noise is done by combining two noise layers (the tool is called FastNoise but i have a slightly modified default that is set to be scaled down a bit and with colors black and white), with each one being different colors. idk what blend mode i used on that specific example but you just choose one
i literally applied an effect (custom made) called Wave (technicals on that: built from a generator (CustomTool) based on a sine wave + Displace), it makes stuff wavy. wave is also one of the tools in my custom collection i still need to rewrite (the cache bug, but theres also an issue using it in proxy/low-quality mode)

most people would be surprised but i saw it coming from the very start. i think i can get by.
i won't automate the actual answering part, but i already automated the part that brings the questions to me, and sends them out.
no
someone realized they could write stuff down, nowadays way too many things to comprehend are written down.
sure.
video was inaccurate and it really was a video on how i made stuff (and that process has changed a bit). it's still available on some link somewhere. if you missed it the only important thing you need to know is that you can do anything and as long as you experiment and learn and don't let "limits" exist you'll do amazing, and also Helvetica.
i might create a new video explaining the way i make things and in more detail, since that's a process i actually know.
not really anything anymore. sometimes i play minecraft and i used to be play geometry dash with a decent skill (perhaps my extreme skills at it's level editor helped be become a nerd at wanting to sync video elements to music). oh also portal 2 and thomas was alone and 140 and more like those.
p.s. tell me if rob makes a 2.2.0 is pretty magical.
my guess is 0. and my only way of tracking who is who is by what they say and their email. but recently i've automated the emailing process so i don't get to see them anymore.
the police's car, the last place they'd look for it.
i wouldn't call myself that.
i took a lot of influence, probably too much. i want to make myself my own self and not a copy. so far that difference is just that i mainly do software development.
that's unfortunate, if you are ever out of ideas you can generate them.
i forgot.
depends if it was on bread or not.
depends who eats it. for example, if the person was on a no carb diet, they wouldn't think it's cool. i'm kind of in the middle, and think each person should draw their own conclusions.
no, but i'm curious how you encountered that bug.
depends on which type you get, and if it's still fresh.
i looked up both as i never had really seen either of them much. interesting twist with those two being more or less the same person. as for the choice, i'd probably go for his music.
i'd define it to be a synonym of amazing, but with a different feeling. it's a word i'd like to use more in the future to vary my vocabulary.
you shouldn't be so negative.
because they are two different things.
green, but they all look amazing.
if i could find something to vote on.
figuring out how to make cooler things faster.
you clearly do not know how hard it is to run one.
that's more interesting, but i don't see the full point of it. i guess the 'nation of old username.net' consists of just me, but has a lot of tourism.
a secret with an expiration date.
thursday was my birthday.
originally when i wanted to start a weekly publish schedule, i noticed there was already a video that satisfied the theme of the thursday videos (thursday dice roll). that video was called thursday just because it was on thursday. i thought we could just continue off there when doing the future videos of thursday math problem and so on. on the day of the thursday something amazing happened and set thursday as THE DAY for me, but i'll share that story later. thursday continued to show it's superiority over other days of the week, being in the middle of all other days, and landing on me and my father's birthdays this year.
i'd try to get some more data on other people as that calculation seems flawed. you should also consider questions that are left unanswered, except you cant.
to check your work, i just ran the numbers and i got a much lower, but still extremely high number of 13250 per day. i also graphed it
yes
if you believe in them
try "username"
it isn't always blue. but for the time it is, that's just what the sky decided to do.
they are as far to the ground as they could go; i am not holding any tables.
it's very large, but you're getting somewhere more reasonable. you're also increasing the question rate.
no. on a mobile device i'd prefer iMessage over terminals and segmentation faults.
not yet
i suck too much at keeping network based programs alive
i'd try combining them, but only if a reaction is needed.
they were one step ahead of your plan. outsmart them and don't update.
good job
i think.
absolutely not!
sure, when there's time and a cool idea.
never figured it out, perhaps the macos keyboard has something like that. i mean you do have all the alt+stuff thing.
no, but i just added that feature, as it is useful now. so yes, i can!
i could try.
I think it's something everyone should try, and maybe even like. Also try pizza on pineapple.
All of it.
i would like to automate it but i'm far too lazy. but without the automation i can see who sent what question and i don't fully like that.
TypeScript is JavaScript with static typing, it checks them and then outputs the JavaScript that doesn't have the type info. This lets do you do fancy stuff like enums and very rich typing on complex structures, and if your code editor supports it (use vscode), you can use that type information in auto complete. TS is nice to learn but you must know what you're doing in regular javascript first.
It is not.
Between 12 and 109,384.
It was getting too hard to work with the fancy layout of the last site design, and also easily show everything i've done. Now, the site looks less fancy, and it lists everything i could find that i've made, and it's easier than ever to add more things to it.
I think it should've been done earlier. We've had other standards (that are real and open standards) to replace it. JavaScript has definitely come a long way and can do much more than Flash has ever done.
HTMLElement.prototype.innerHTML
does work on all browsers, but if you want to insert html into your question, you can't. However, if you write a link i will probably make it a real link. (remember i do this all manually)
on some subjects, the cake lies. on others, like mathematics, it tells the truth.
when i have time to.
if you use it for too long.
i haven't figured it out, and i'm not sure how much i want to.
yes.
only if it's scrambled.
favorite color, doesn't it look amazing?
favuorite.
i made it from scratch.
if you were brother and sister to begin with.
no.
i generally don't watch TV too much, but one of the good ones i can think of off the top of my head would be adam ruins everything.
