#introductions

Hey everyone! I'm Holly (or monorail, either is fine), local Ice type Mastodon admin. I run glaceon.social, a small instance that I think is, excuse me, cool.

I'm 26, , (?), a girl, and white as the fallen snow.

My interests include programming, video james, and sleeping in until the afternoon. Say hi if you like, I don't bite. (60 power Dark type physical attack? No thanks!)

Typing with paws is tough, so instead of more words, have a picture!

If you want to play Super Smash Bros. Melee online, the software to do that can be found here: https://slippi.gg

Make an account, download the launcher, and that's basically it! You'll have to do the normal emulator things (e.g. set up your controls if you aren't using an adapter that Dolphin supports out of the box) but once you do, launching the game will put you directly into an Online Play menu. Slippi Dolphin hooks into the game to handle things like your account, mmr, rollback netcode, etc. From the perspective of actually playing, it's extremely seamless.

You will need to have an iso of ssbm version 1.02. If you're looking for a link to one: How dare you! My personal copy was ripped directly from a real disc using a hacked console, which is the legal way to do it. I keep it on a file server for my own personal use, not distribution. In fact, why don't you shoot me a DM so I can scold you some more there.

about me

"holly how tall are you, i keep forgetting" don't worry, i took a picture of me posing next to a building i found on the internet

"holly why do you run your own instance instead of using someone else's"

​💬 "well, it's a great learning experience, i think it's important to the ideals of federation that there be a wide selection of instances to choose from rather than everyone piling into a few big ones, and it's as good a hobby as anything else"

​💭 "modifying the code for shitposts"

it might be i came i saw i conquered in Latin. idk though

veni, vidi, vici

i invented computers

I can't believe that wotc actually printed Mind Goblin. This is not a ligma, they printed a card called "____ Goblin" that changes its own name when it ETBs, and one of the options is to add "Mind"

in my first minecraft world it was SO hard to find iron for some reason. i finally got an iron pickaxe and it broke before i found another vein

back in my day nether portals were exactly 2 by 3

achoo

like if you're grinding for rng, any time an attempt doesn't work out, you may as well have not done it. that's bad for the mindset

there's two different kinds of "grind" in video games, incremental progress and rng

grinding for something that takes a long time, not so bad. you make a little progress every day, and one day you're done

grinding for rng SUCKS because you know in the back of your mind that no matter how much time you've put in, you're still not any closer

kid named mike:

cursed fucking images

one of these days i'll figure out why my mastodon userscript doesn't run on firefox unless you clear the cache

like it fails with a CSP error, but if you hard refresh, it works

(the first sentence is a lie i will never figure that out)

my primary hobby is using the word "slurp" in places where you shouldn't
