WE CAN DO IT. WE CAN MAKE IT. HOPE. (NO)CHANGE. SUCCESS.
POST LADIES AND GENTS, POST, THE LUCKY NUMBER IS UPON US.
⚠ WARNING ⚠
The impact of September 7000 is estimated to occur in 97 hours.
>>166
DQN time (UTC) or JST? It's important. We need to set up a body to govern September 7000 timekeeping.
We also need an artist to whip up a commemorative plaque.
>>159
Did you just hide all icons? Have you finished SICP? How does EVAL APPLY feel like? I was trying to get there, but then I lost my job and all motivation with it.
>>164
Ahahaha!
>>168
No icons on desktop, the taskbar works fine for that kind of thing and looks cleaner to boot. Correct in guessing I'm following SICP, although I haven't touched it since June. I have a mostly working interpreter, but there's an odd bug that is causing the provided Scheme->register machine compiler in Scheme that you're supposed to use as a base to fail on it and I lost motivation.
It's tough, I know. Tell you what, I'll finish it before >>700. You want to get somewhere in that time too?
>>170
Is it like new year/birthday promises?
I'll finish the codecademy's JS course and move on to udacity to study python before >>700! At the same time, I'm going to pick up SICP again and revise what I've learned before June (I dropped it in the same month as you - makes me wonder whenever it is a coincidence, a conspiracy, a "hivemind" or a mimicry).
>>170,171
I want to pick up SICP again, too! Scheme was fun, and I loved using that nifty vim plugin to write LISP. Any other dokyuns feel like conjuring some spirits with us?!
>>159
OpenBSD is really dandy if you read the Unix philosophy and think, "Gosh, why isn't Linux or GNU like this?!"
It's also fun to hack on. GNU is great in terms of features and ubiquity, but it's a little tricky (read: impossible) to understand:

Keep your hands down and post!
How about we only post ITT instead of posting all over /dqn/?
If we concentrate we're posts here, we will get to >>700 in no time!
Hmm, perhaps I shall post some kind of segmented stream of consciousness type thing.
"Stream of consciousness" is the right term, isn't it?
Come to think of it, I posted a stream of consciousness in the Post Your Current Thought thread a while back; let me see if I can find it.
http://4-ch.net/dqn/kareha.pl/1340196069/262
Here it is. Oh boy, I was not myself that night.
Well, I was myself, but you know what I mean.
What am I doing? I'm far too self conscious to do something like this.
I was even too self conscious to engage in >>147's suggested print screen festivities, because that would involve explaining why I use Mercury rather than Pseud0ch.
Actually, I'll do that now.
Firstly, I'm quite severely red/green colourblind, so Pseud0ch just looks like an unpleasantly ambiguous greenish-brownish-reddish mess to me.
Secondly, I have a fairly low resolution (1024 x 768), which means it's better not to have the huge margins with the brick patterns.
Thirdly, the emergency mittens actually appear in front of the threads, rather than behind. This is very important.
Fun fact: having such a low resolution gives me a comparatively high mitten/pixel ratio, as there are only ever ten on screen at once.
I just found that releasing the emergency mittens, then squashing the window as small as possible, then maximising it again makes them all line up. How nice.
But enough about mittens. I should try talking about something more interesting.
So, um, I was playing Touhou recently.
I decided to have a go at IN with Sakuya/Remilia, because otherwise I always use either Reimu/Yukari or Youmu/Yuyuko.
I wasn't expecting to get very far; I remembered Remilia being very fiddly and Sakuya being a bit too low power.
I'm kinda surprised more textboards don't have additional stylesheets beyond the kareha defaults.
Anyway, long story short, I accidentally 1cced it with something like eight lives to spare. Also, 200 get.
Sometimes I consider playing Touhou but I'm not so fond of games that rely on quick reactions. ( ´ﾟωﾟ`)
I want to 1cc lunatic but it's just ridiculous. Stage five isn't too bad, but the fight with Marisa is not even pretending to be possible.
And believe me, it has less reliance on quick reactions than most FPSes.
>>199
There was that one thread in SAoVQ a while back.
Also I just noticed that back in the day when you had alternate stylesheets listed Firefox had a dropdown menu to select them, but that's apparently gone.
>>203
Maybe I will. Last shooter I played was Jamestown and I spent like 3 hours on the final level, managed to survive to the second and presumably last form of the final boss and died and just gave up in frustration.
>>206
Yes, frustration can be a terrible thing. You have to learn to take death in an almost zen-like way.
It would appear that I have run out of things to say. I am now taking suggestions from the audience.
Excellent suggestion, >>0! Perhaps I have posted enough for now.
Good night, Dokyuns.
>>205
Oh, Firefox now has a style editor in the Web Developer thing. It's kind of weird and buggy, but you can apply all of the stylesheets at the same time. Here's what it looks like, applied sequentially: http://i.imgur.com/sbgU1.jpg
delicious cakes
"I eat your CAKE."
Cake is nice. I like cake.
Huzzah!
gogogogogo!
we have to accelerate significantly.
>>224
How can this service even tell when Eternal September ends.
I'm going to post some more.
Unless we all start stream-of-consciousnessing soon, I doubt we're going to make it.
I hope we do make it, that would be great.
My dog is annoyed with me.
That's because I won't let her into the room next door.
Never mind, she got in anyway.
This music is wonderful.
These cat posters are also wonderful.
Life is wonderful.
I'm not sure I like chocolate any more.
I haven't eaten anything yet today. Perhaps I should do that soon.
Why do I have two boxes of matches next to my computer? Surely one should be enough.
Hello again dog.
Oh, you want to be stroked now, do you?
I suppose I can accommodate that.
My captcha was pugly. I'm glad you're not a pug.
Oh, and you're off again.
Was it something I said?
So, uh, back to my cat posters.
They really are very nice indeed.
There's all sorts of cats there, different colours as well.
Well, I wouldn't know what colour they are.
I mean, one of them looks blue; that can't be right.
They all look very smug.
I think it's because of the Clonepaish mouths.
Clonepaesque.
Clonepaiform.
This is getting silly.
Perhaps I shall leave it here for now.
>>248
There are five cats here. Five. One of them is a real rogue, you know. One of those yankii kids who hangs outside of convenience stores. He's got this gruff voice and always asks to be let outside, so he can start a fight. Oh, and then one of them is a real femme. You wouldn't believe this guy could survive two weeks on his own. Acts like a real prince. Yeah, but that's nothing compared to the queen of them. Never comes out of the master bedroom, but whenever she does, she's in a bitchy mood. If you're lucky, she'll let you stroke her on the cold, hard bathroom floor. Oh, does that bring back memories. So that's what, three so far? Finally we have this fat chick that no one really cares about and a black one named Monkey. Always steals food off the table.
This doesn't have some twist where it's been a reference for you to understand all along or anything. This is what the cats in this house are actually like.
Cluttered desk, what are your secrets? What tales lie hidden underneath the leaning tower of CD? Actually it's plain to see, a fly dost nest beneath thee. Tomes and volumes scattered round, which might have cost a pretty pound, I may not read you much today, for a darker one I'll keep you 'round. The monitor will stop it's slumber, once again become alive; aside it is a case, the tower, please don't call it a hard drive.
There was DQN from Vermont,
Who opened up his restaurant,
Could not make a sale,
Hyped to no avail,
But professionalism was naught.
At 3:00 o' clock, his crusty eyes continued to scan the display.
"Honey," he yelled at the form on his couch, "I'm going to head to bed." Peeking above the monitor, he saw she would be out like stone for the next few hours. Her laptop was on the coffee table, the web browser displaying some site he'd never seen.
"Better not to tempt fate," he thought. "Tomorrow is big, and I can't risk any sudden upset." Moving to the couch to pull a cover over his beloved, his eyes glazed over the laptop to her side. "i love my mom" was the title of the thread that started it all. With "fart man" in the name field, his wife had unfurled an epic yarn.
"What if all of this is true?" he paused. "Have I been so blind? I really haven't seen that she's an average looking English guy who's thirty-eight."
From: I Can't Believe I Married Fart Man, the hit anime.
