Opossum's Silly Little Thoughts
April 25th 2026
I'm so tired. My friends went to a convention at the beginning of this month and I'm the only one with a car so I did the drive. I didn't mind but it absolutely blew up my finances. For the next week I'm eating beans, rice, and potatoes.

I found these two E-readers at a thrift store today. I have a kindle that I rooted as an E-reader. I have no idea what Im going to do with the nook but I think I might turn the new kindle into some sort of word processor. I really love the tactile buttons on it for writing. First I have to replace the battery though.

It's funny what stuff can excite you when learning a new skill. I just got realy excited cause I used a pointer without being told that I needed to. I even tested it without the pointer just to check and yeah it was needed. I love learning!!

I'm learning about writing 6502 emulators. So far I have written 4 of the almost 200 op codes. I was hoping to get it running before the end of the month but we'll see if I can do that. especially if i keep getting distracted by doom scrolling.

I have managed to install SDL and make a window with it. I've had so much frustration trying to get this working and actually just learning how to use g++ was the only thing stopping me. (Please don't shit on me for using a chromebook. I bought it cheap thinking I could just install linux on it and turns out I can’t.)

So it turns out the biggest reason I've had trouble with C++ is that I just never learned how to use a compiler because the book I'm using just assumes you know how to use them. Now that I've finally looked into it it's so simple.

I am once again attempting to learn C++. I think this is the third time ive attempted it so wish me luck.

Ive been wanting to make a NAS for my home network for a while now and I finnaly got around to turning an old laptop into one. it only has 100gb of storage but that's more than enough to backup my important stuff. Especially this website cause I'd hate to have to remake it
