This is a cool prompt, but really tricky.

When I was young, I always wanted to be an author. I wrote my own stories, but they were basically my guesses of what Harry Potter was like, before I actually read them. After that, writing a story has always felt so daunting. But I’ve eventually made some headway, when I chose to start writing again on 1 June. It’s the furthest I’ve got in years - I actually know where my story is going, and who the characters are.

That sounds interesting. Cyberpunk makes me think of like 80s neon, but in a futuristic world. The urbanite in me loves that idea. I definitely don’t think it’s basic.

That actually makes perfect sense. Making a post can be scary. I’m making a deliberate effort to actually say something, rather than lurking. But deciding what to say is tricky, especially if you don’t know how you’re going to be received. I’m glad something like that can help.

I was able to reassemble my own pc, and get it working nicely after it messed up. I was so stressed I would break something. But I didn’t, and the difference in speed was crazy. I figured out that there were airflow problems, and there was so much dust.

Yes, robocode is fun. I got thrown in the deepend with that and a coding assignment.

Try to figure out what you want to build. That will make a big difference towards what you learn. I’m partial to C# for gamedev, but there is so much out there. If you really have no idea, Python is a good multi-purpose language that can get you used to programming.

Yes, that sounds nice. I’d want to make it easier to fly a dragon in Skyrim. I’d probably prefer going a bit further south, to the Imperial City. Skyrim is cold.

I got the idea from the Bobiverse series. For me, personally, I would like a quiet room like a library. With a dog by my side, and windows looking out towards the sea.

I agree. I like the idea of communities, rather than following specific people. I like the slight feeling of separation when it is community based. Both have their place, though.

Yeah. I’m not willing to use the official Reddit app. I tried for a day, and it was terrible. Using Lemmy with Jerboa feels natural, because the interface is very similar to the app I used for Reddit - Boost. There are communities I will miss, but it’s nice to actually see the fediverse start to grow, and participate in it. It’s hard to change from being a lurker to actually commenting, but the community feels more tight-knit.
