it's going good! surprised + happy that people are still aroundish here, and in kind of a weird vague nostalgic mood besides that. I hope everyone's doing good! I'm super bad at staying in touch in even the best cases but like, hi and stuff
I'm officially unemployed. I now feel empty and dead but I hated that place and my contract was up anyway. But still I'm depressed and it's Christmas eve and Christmas won't be much better.
Yep, I'm here-ish for the moment. I wander in and out. I'm here right now because I'm working on a game for the Unity contest. Gonna finally finish and release something, even if it's small, so that's exciting.
I'm gutted. I found a fantastic deal in PC World (the sort of deal that justifies buying a laptop from PC World) but they had sold out; since then the price has doubled and it's the same price everywhere I look. I don't for a minute believe they ever expected to sell it at the lower price. It's all a con, ain't it.
But the laptop was the cheapest to have the same resolution as my old laptop, which is the major stumbling block to me getting a new one. I just want a cheap laptop that can do the same things my old one did. Big ask.
So... do I buy it?
I'm gonna have to. I have obligations. The Internet relies on me and me alone. I am the saviour of the web.
