@GameDesignerBen can you tell me a good way to get in touch, not mastodon?
@GameDesignerBen there’s so much going on here (it’s bigger than nyc) and so its hard to say you gotta do this… buuut I’d check out https://www.timeout.com/tokyo it will tell you what’s happening during the time you’re here. There’s way more museums here too, like little ones that are excellent. I really like the Miraikan if you haven’t been there cause there are robots! Been meaning to go to the miniature museum if you wanna go w me lmk. If u wanna have a chat abt what to see lmk.
@GameDesignerBen what are your interests besides games? When will you be here? There’s a lot of cool stuff. 😳
You can look stuff up almost immediately on your phone wherever you are but sometimes you’re in mid conversation or maybe you’re traveling and have no data and end up at the mercy of the description that someone is giving you. And maybe their description seems not as informative or convincing as Wikipedia or a video on the internet, which is silly if you rly think abt it. And sometimes their description is just w/out context and seems almost unbelievable, like they might be trolling you.

My self hosting from a little computer (raspi) in my kitchen went badly a month or so ago. I updated something and didn’t have a full backup 😭And so I deleted my server and started over again. I installed an automatic backup system (borg) and I’m back in business… ✨ #selfhosting
@ivan I’m fine, thanks. It was relatively small.
Wow so v jelly that I won’t be around for this … https://gothamist.com/news/mtas-modern-subway-cars-rolling-on-the-tracks-this-spring
Have spent a few months figuring out what I feel comfortable w on social media. Still kinda dunno but I know I wanna microblog abt stuff I’m working on, trying out, etc. Here is the current state: mastodon accnt @kaho on an instance of one (just me lol) running off of a raspi in my kitchen. I’m using Twitter as my backup server ok.
People are so scared of AI helping students cheat but I can’t stop thinking about how it would have helped me and potentially taught me better ways of expressing my ideas in English, growing up. English is really my second language and since I grew up speaking Japanese at home, I’ve always felt somewhat inadequate about my writing and speaking skills at school. Even now tbh. 😞
