Retro style, part 4 – Still on books
The last one should have been short, it wasn’t.
As if I wasn’t verbose enough already, listening to all of these books is making me even worse.
I need to go back to the dumbening warmth of flashing images, I’m starting to think that for society to move to a healthy paradigm we need to get rid of the nice flashing images as they atrophy your brain.
Hell, I need to return to the flashing pictures quickly or next I’ll start calling Ted Kaczynski “Uncle Ted”. (perhaps I already do in secret)
Let me break this talk before I actually start talking seriously about my feelings on the cute flashing images.

Retro style, part 3 – Linux command line goodness
So, here’s the next instalment of the boring, never ending saga.
This one should be short, it’s mostly an update on stuff.

Jurassic Smartphone – Android torrenting Apps
So, here’s the next instalment in my series of adventures LARPing as a 80s nerd.
Sorry bro, I need to see pictures of things (mostly big breasted midgets, of course :lol: ), the command line doesn’t cut it.
So I sometimes use my smartphone.

Retro Style, part 2 – books
Still haven’t decided what to do about my main computer.
Plan B of buying an old Atom itx board to use as a Linux LAN server/temporary shitposting machine is still a possibility.

I am a hero (manga, 2009-2017)
- 8 years.
8 years, 22 volumes, 264 chapters.
One of the best zombie works of fiction of the last 10 years. (I’d say the best, but there’s lots of people who love that soap opera…what’s it’s name? Walking dead? Something like that.)
Finally the big blobs of ZQNs had conveyed somewhere.
“This is it! It’s going to be epic! What brought the ZQNs there? Why did all this happen? What will Hideo do?”
Zettai Zetsumei Toshi
So, a couple of years ago, in a post about survival games I mentioned Raw Danger (Zettai Zetsumei Toshi 2, henceforth ZZT2)
It is one of my favourite survival games, ever!
Perhaps not the most realistic one (has it’s moments), but it has something your average modern survival game doesn’t have: familiarity (and in great degree possibility; the scenario in the game is not overly far-fetched).

I am a hero (2015)
I’ve ranted about the manga (final rant about it will come as soon as it ends, almost there), now I’ll rant about the film.
As usual my rant is just a bunch of disjointed points and opinions.
My youtube guilty pleasures, part 2
This was actually what I originally was going to write about in the youtube guilty pleasures post, before I veered into a different direction and decided to split it into a two parts post.
This post will be considerably shorter than the part 1.

My youtube guilty pleasures, part 1
As the title says.
We all have guilty pleasures, in this post I’ll reveal a couple of my youtube guilty pleasures.
Not that anyone cares, but part of the fun is to share, who knows if someone will end up liking the same stuff.
And I felt like writing a bit. (as the tags indicate)
