@Lensflare It's the sign-of-life signal.
With all the talk of devrant 'dying', I half expected, coming back, that no one would be here.
Love that its still a sort of low-bandwidth backchannel for talking with people long-term.
And for all the complaints of spam, I still get less spam here than I do in my emails (or notif spam anywhere else for that matter).
When I post here, I know reliably I can get ahold of at least some of the old gang.
And thats all that matters.
Whats been going on on your end Lensflare? -
@Wisecrack well the spam is dealt with by my bots :]
They downvote 10 to 20 spam rants per day.
There is nothing noteworthy going on on my end, but thanks for asking :) -
@SidTheITGuy or better yet, an address so we can conduct wellness checks!

@Wisecrack
So good to hear from you again, Wisecrack!
I don’t hang around here much either these days, but the moment I saw you were back, I jumped right in.
Life’s been wild — I finally got a serious girlfriend, and we moved in together 3 weeks ago… it’s been pure magic ever since 😅
I’ve turned into a cooking machine, biked all summer, and even started running lately. My heart’s loving it — 10/10, would recommend!
But life isn’t all sunshine and rainbows…
Last week, I lost the sweetest grandma in the world. So if you take just one thing from this, let it be this:
Make time for yourself and your loved ones. You’ll need those beautiful memories when times get tough. ❤️
Keep up the good vibes my friend! Good luck in the competition, I’m rooting for you! 💪🎉
And waiting for your game!
All the best my friend -
Lack of sleep makes you stressed, stress makes you sleep less. That and having something to look forward to the next morning. Hope you're getting enough rest and having fun :D
For the contact, try calling a random contact while you're working on something, it can help. Good luck with the competition and hope you win
Missed some of you. A lot of you really.
Anything exciting happen while I was gone?
I heard some of you formed a mob, dragged a spammer out behind the wood shed and beat em bloody.
Sad to say I missed that.
I'm currently eeking by financially, but got my plans for the fall winter and spring. Gym membership, rock climbing, prepping for a 5k. Weathers perfect for all of it.
I'm in a competition right now for some serious prize money and in the lead.
Enough to start that AI lab and finish my game.
Also, not everything is sunshine and roses. I sleep 3-6 hours a night average, (5-6 if I'm lucky), and horrible mood swings, with or without sleep. And isolation, damn the isolation is terrible, but my schedule is so hectic I basically have no room for any real-world contacts. I can barely make time for myself, let alone my family.
But I'm still writing poetry and music at least, and got my eye on some land for a cabin or other uses like for an office.
Whats going good/bad in your life?
I haven't heard from so many of you for so long.
