reiteration, OLPC, DVD

so far this site looks pretty good. again, im just going to write whatever comes to me, so this journal is pretty much going to be like a slightly less depressing version of strong sads blog.

thinking about if my old OLPC laptop never got its screen broken... there's sugar-on-a-stick for its os, but thats not the same :-(... after writing this im actually pretty convinced i might try it anyway.

ive also made a dvd version of my classmates' favorite movie with dvdstyler, so im pretty proud of that.

flashcards, comfortability, OLPC, Megaton, introspection, shortcuts

i think there should be easier ways to memorize toki pona words, most of the things out there are really weird like.... proprietary flashcard software??
why would i buy flashcard software...??

anyway, i havent got much to do lately so im just sitting here on a blank dreamwidth screen. i definitely like it a lot more than most of the other places im on.

and yes... im downloading sugar-on-a-stick. didnt take long to convince me!
i still have my OLPC that originally ran that stuff, it's in bits after younger-me broke its screen and slightly-older-me opened it up for no reason (i didnt have any screen replacements) and decided it'd be best if i opened it and closed it over and over until it didnt fit together right anymore. its in a bag somewhere. i never actually got to use it because it was given second-hand without a charger, so i never got a chance to really try it. i was basically given plastic. it really sukes [sic]. :-P

anyway, despite being from like 2001, im still listening to Megaton by Santos Inocentes on loop. its a damn good album! it was the first album i ever pirated and then burnt to disc!

i think this is a good place to let my thoughts spill out. im not a big fan of actual diaries and journals because my handwriting sucks so bad. i never really gave thought to this kinda stuff. i joined dreamwidth for its novelty first and to reduce the amount of DVD logos in my mental screensaver second, so to speak. it's pretty effective?? i think? i just like to write, maybe. im writing more for myself than to anyone else. but whatever works!

i watched the matrix: reloaded and the matrix: revolutions in that order... i think i mixed them up? i couldnt be bothered to check. i think my 4:3 crt tv being so small made me pay attention to the movie less. talk about about out of sight out of mind!

in a way i feel this writing helps see inside my mind. im writing small paragraphs and spacing them out because this is how my thoughts go. i dont know what anyone else's thoughts look like so i wouldnt know if this is the norm or not. worth a shot; do you think like this? i assume not≥

i just found out you can delete word for word with option-backspace on this old mac! i like that. i dont really like how holding backspace makes it go breakneck speed after a while.
