I’ve been doing my development work in Linux for a while now, and doing that you get used to certain luxuries. One of these is the packaging system that comes installed with various Linux distros – thousands of useful applications and libraries are just a sudo apt-get install or sudo yum install away, and the… Continue reading visual studio meet SDL2, SDL2 meet visual studio…
back to the beginning…
This title could refer to two things: either this blog, which is an on-again off-again project of mine, or the current state of pop culture.

It’s… Continue reading life on mars

But yeah, Christmas wouldn’t be Christmas without sitting down on Christmas Day with the family to watch Doctor Who. Also, on the 26th I’m going to write a big blog post about Amazing Spider-Man #700 and Avenging… Continue reading xmas plans
