    shhhhhhhhhhhh just breaking the site again don't mind me

    very, very, very experimental fic continues its slow progress as the deadline for bicyclette's sci-fi contest draws near. these chapters are about on-par with what if in terms of length, but oh boy have they been an interesting experience to write.

    hey hey btw i've got a (couple of) public minecraft server(s)!

    yeah so anyway here is my webbed site lol. there's an MC Classic server for building whatever, and an MC Beta 1.7.3 server for playing survival. I might eventually also put up a modern vanilla server as well, though given how I'm hosting a bunch of servers already for friends and a couple of discord servers, idk if the little slab of a PC I'm using to host 'em all would be able to manage lol.

    summer break is almost here :V

    basically got one week left lol. got an experimental fic in the works that's a sort-of direct sequel picking off right where Splintershard ended. no prior reading is necessary.

    MAN it's been a while since I've toyed with writing styles.

Also, my computer sucks more than a vacuum cleaner. It's case is literally falling apart as it is, and Minecraft is pretty much the only thing that doesn't lag on it anymore.

Specs:
Pentium g2030
8gb no-name RAM
Nvidia GT 720
320 gb WD hard drive + off-brand 250 gb drive for backing up various files
2 non-functional DVD drives I haven't bothered dealing with
Multifunction internal card reader that works depending on how hard you wish
Windows 7 pro
500 watt PSU
Asus socket LGA 1155 motherboard
HP model w2408h widescreen display - One of the few nice-looking things plugged into my PC.
Wireballs. Lots and lots of wireballs.


Additional hardware I occasionally plug into the system to keep it going for as long as possible:

USB hard drive controller - scavenged for $15 at a thrift store
SD card reader - Because I'm tired of waiting for the card to be recognized by the internal reader.
20-something year old keyboard - I have newer and nicer ones, but I like the clicky feel of this one. It helps me write better (if you ask me.) :moustache:
Polaroid headphones - Got 'em on my birthday.
USB webcam - Video chats with friends
Old Acer laptop - used as a network bridge because I don't have a wifi card for my main system.
My phone - because sometimes I just need to charge it somewhere.
Lots and lots of noisy fans - My computer overheats sometimes.
Random PCI cards I swap out depending on what I do during the day: ranges from additional VGA cards for extra screens to storage controllers.


Also, I'm glad that this list'll change soon in the near future, 'cause I've already got a nice new Gigabyte motherboard sitting in it's wrapper next to me. I just want to get a Core i5 2400 to stick on the thing and the rest I might cannibalize my current system for parts.
