Downloaded this neural-stim today. Finally, a sim that doesn't fry your wetware with bloated render pipelines and optimization nightmares. Clean code. Responsive input. Actual gameplay. The corpo gaming megacorps should take notes: fun over fidelity. Give us substance, not just ray-traced chrome.

It's an extraction protocol set in a Machine-occupied wasteland. Humanity fled deep—underground cities carved into the earth's crust. Only the brave (or desperate) jack back up to scavenge what's left topside. Every run is a gamble: synthetic hunters patrol with cold precision, scanning for biosignatures. One wrong move and you're spare parts.

Radio, live transmission | Radio, live transmission | Listen to the silence, let it ring on | Eyes, dark grey lenses frightened of the sun | We would have a fine time living in the night | Left to blind destruction | Waiting for our sight | And we would go on as though nothing was wrong | Hide from these days we remained all alone | Staying in the same place, just staying out the time | Touching from a distance, further all the time | Dance, dance, dance, dance, dance, to the radio (x4) | Well I could call out when the going gets tough | The things that we've learnt are no longer enough | No language, just sound, that's all we need know | To synchronise love to the beat of the show | And we could dance | Dance, dance, dance, dance, dance, to the radio (x4)

Embrace the change. Don't abuse it. My use of AI recently has helped solidify my thoughts on the matter. As nearly anything in meat-space, AI can and will be abused but as long as you temper reliance, stay curious, and keep learning -- I say jack-in.

There's something liberating about stripping away the unnecessary. Modern web development has become bloated bits of unnecessary frameworks that assault your senses. We've forgotten that simplicity is a feature, not a limitation.

A static HTML site loads instantly. No unpacking and no node_modules directory that could collapse into a black hole. You just open your editor, write, save, and deploy. The barrier between thought and publication now collapses to zero.

❯ cd proj/my-web-page
❯ zed .
❯ git commit -m "whatever" && git push

This is how it should be. Fast. Efficient. Under your control.

System initialized. Beginning documentation protocol.

This space will serve as an append-only log of discoveries, experiments, and ideas worth preserving. No algorithms will decide what you see. No tracking. No analytics. Pure signal.

If you're reading this, you found it intentionally. Welcome.
