So, yes, I'm 23 now.

At the moment I'm at a wine bar, named Vino Vixens, with a bunch of furries, and it's awesome and totally relaxed and drama-free.

I'm kind of amazed, actually.



Edit: Woohoo, new icon! [info]oceart just finished my new icon less than an hour ago.

So, I was getting caught up on Twitter a few minutes ago and had a
momentary "wait, what?" aneurysm when I saw few choice tweets from
@whiffies. (Whiffies is a food cart at 12'th and Hawthorne that sells
deep-fried pies. They are delicious, and the late-night hours rock.)

How awesome would it be if Food Network showed up an it was all
Furries eating pies?

So FN shows up to punk me with Bobby Flay only to find an entire lot
full of furries #carriedawayfantasizing

So, new fantasy: Flay intercepts these correspondences and sneaks in
as a furry revealing himself for a throwdown!!

Pumpkin Patch Meet

There was a furmeet in Salem.

I took pictures, and actually posted them.

(Then we went to Southside Speakeasy. Their website is awful, but the pub/club itself is really awesome. I just wish I hadn't been the one driving the Portland contingent, and thus unable to get drunk. :/)

Steam

When I'm booted into Windows, I don't run my normal instant messengers.
Instead, I use Steam, because the overlay feature fucking rocks when you're playing fullscreen games.

Add me on Steam, and use the link. If you just type in "koinu", you won't find me.

Anyway, that's why you haven't seen me online.
I've been bored out of my mind during the lull between terms, and filling the time with games.

By the way, I'm starting at Portland State University next month.
I transferred in as a junior with respect to my degree, but with "senior" standing credits-wise.

In Retrospect...

I'm not sure it was such a good idea to pick the Moon OST as the soundtrack to cramming for my Physics Test of Doom™.

Moon is one of those movies I'd label as "distracting." That is, it keeps popping back into my head under one premise or another, even though I saw it over a week ago. (This is a good thing, although the compulsion to grab and listen to the soundtrack when I have more pressing things to do... maybe not so much.)

If you like "hard" science fiction, see Moon. If you could tolerate sitting through 2001, this is nowhere near as sleep-inducing with regards to pacing. I'll also argue that it's a substantially better movie because it doesn't need to hide the meat of what's going on behind a wall of vagueness.

On a more somber note, Australia is now Natio non Grata as far as I'm concerned: Confirmed: Second Life, online adult games to be banned outright in Australia

To those of you stuck there: I'm sorry, but the entire continent is now way worse than dead to me. It is your fault for not dragging the fuckers who are doing this out of their offices and frog-marching them to the guillotine. The idea that you even have a "Censorship Minister" is an unforgivable abomination.

SPARQLdog

So, I've decided on a name for an alternate feral fursona: SPARQLdog.

No, not a Sparkledog. See also: "Opposable thumbs would be nice" by NightmareHound.

Rather, a SPARQL dog.
True fact: The last time I said "SPARQL" in person to someone who knew what it was, the response was "...don't even use that word." (The coffee-pot conversation was about the conference session on SQL schema design being too early in the morning.)

Now I just need to get a commission. :P

Cute → Geeky

By now, you've probably seen the old, tooth-rottingly cute video of dogs playing with polar bears.

The geeky twist that recently dawned upon me is that this is a beautiful if unintentional allegory for how contact between a human-created AI and an alien intelligence might play out. If I was a writer I might be able to do something with that, but alas, this short entry will have to suffice.

[Code] Prefix Flags Utility

  • Apr. 15th, 2009 at 1:00 AM
quake3
This is for the 'nix-geek crowd, and can be ignored by everyone else without me thinking any less of you.

Here's how I install stuff on 'nix systems:

Every single separate package goes in it's own prefix.
If it's a system I've set up by hand, these are rooted in /.prefix ala /.prefix/python/[bin|lib|...]. Otherwise, if it's a shared system, or one where I keep my hands off the OS (like my OS X laptop), the prefixes are rooted at ~/.prefix.
After installing, I symlink any interesting executables to /command or ~/command as appropriate.

Where things get interesting is linking against libraries that are installed in these prefixes. It's not hard or complicated, it can just require passing an explosive amount of CPPFLAGS/LDFLAGS when running ./configure for a dependent package. (150% so on OS X, thanks to Apple's dynamic library fetish.)

Tonight, I finally got sick of building paragraph-long configure invocations by repetitively copy-pasting from my notes, and decided to write this utility. It's very simple; you invoke it inline while defining the CPPFLAGS/LDFLAGS for ./configure, and it will find the location of the package and output the appropriate flags.

Without this utility:
./configure --prefix=/Users/xxxx/.prefix/myapp CPPFLAGS="-I/Users/xxxx/.prefix/readline/include -I/Users/xxxx/.prefix/jpeg/include -I/Users/xxxx/.prefix/freetype/include -I/Users/xxxx/.prefix/sqlite/include
" LDFLAGS="-L/Users/xxxx/.prefix/readline/lib -L/Users/xxxx/.prefix/jpeg/lib -L/Users/xxxx/.prefix/freetype/lib -L/Users/xxxx/.prefix/sqlite/lib -Wl,-rpath,/Users/xxxx/.prefix/readline/lib -Wl,-rpath,/Users/xxxx/.prefix/jpeg/lib -Wl,-rpath,/Users/xxxx/.prefix/freetype/lib -Wl,-rpath,/Users/xxxx/.prefix/sqlite/lib"


With this utility:
./configure --prefix=/Users/xxxx/.prefix/myapp CPPFLAGS="$(prefix -I readline jpeg freetype sqlite)" LDFLAGS="$(prefix -LR readline jpeg freetype sqlite)"

See why I wrote it? ;P

The Popsicle Plan [Dream]

  • Apr. 11th, 2009 at 12:43 PM

I was on a plane, talking with someone I had spent the unmemorable portion of the dream trying to discover the identity of and track down. The conversation shifted and I said something to the effect of "I knew you were a life-extension-health-nut, but I really didn't expect you to be on the popsicle plan."
This is when something went horribly wrong with the plane; I think the fore section (everything in front of the wings) simply fell off. I was going to comment about the "fat lot of good that'll do you now," but woke up before I said it.

The term "shipper" in the context of someone describing themselves as "a Lee/Kara shipper" on a BSG forum never made much sense to me. It was obvious to me that they meant something along the lines of wanting to see them hook up, but the term itself didn't make any sense until just now, months after I first saw it used:
