Fawkes's Interests

General

I have always been entranced by mythological imaginations of technology which does not yet have solid grounds -- visions of computers yet to be.

I don't really have a name for the aesthetics that I like, but if you stick around long enough you'll find some theme.

I am on a slow burn quest to consume all of the halo media. Currently reading The Cole Protocol and on the verge of starting Halo 3 Legendary with two separate groups.

Vidya

All time favorites:
  • The Dishonored Franchise
  • Halo 2
  • Minecraft
  • Roblos...
  • Half-Life 1 specifically
Recent Conquests:
  • The Forgotten City
  • Chiv 2
  • Getting over it with Bennett Foddy x4
  • Halo 2 MCC Legendary Co-op skull sightseeing run
  • Rad Racer 2 for the 3rd time
  • Mario
  • Pajama Sam's Sock Works
Games I aim to beat next:
  • 100%ing Dishonored 1
  • DEFCON
  • Milk outside a bag of milk outside a bag of milk
  • Noita
  • Slime rancher
  • Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory (lfg)
  • Total War: NAPOLEON
Current slop games:
  • Chiv 2

Music

Current fav:


Genres: Vapor, slush, gabber, future funk, chillwave, ambient electronic, funk, new wave, drum & bass, jungle, barber beats. I curate the worst, most incoherent, gibberish music playlist on the planet. My music discovery process usually just involves clicking on youtube recommendations and getting bandcamp emails, but occasionally I'll do some sniffing about on music-map.

Movies

Once upon a time, I would only watch movies that had been influential since their release, but also weren't any older than like five years out of the theater. Now I run two distinct movie clubs where the audience decides on the movie every week, so I am beyond genre or understandable selection criteria.

I have a ratio of nearly 2500 on adventure time.
Some personal favorites are:

Television

Girls und Panzer, Bee & Puppycat, Regular show, infinity train, rvb, Adventure Time, SEL, boondocks, Mr. Robot, Futurama, Azumanga Daioh, the IT Crowd.

Books

I read sci-fi, fantasy, and weird pdfs I find on the internet.
Favorite academic literature:

  • The Rise of the Computer State
  • Born Red
  • You Have the Right to Remain Innocent
Favorite delusions:
  • Football 17776 and 20020
  • The Repossession Mambo
  • Friday Black
  • The Metamorphosis of Prime Intellect
  • The Halo Series
  • Neuromancer
I read more as a kid than I do now as an adult and it's a real point of shame.

Heroes

Edward Snowden, Terry A. Davis, K, Guy Fawkes (hence the handle), every last weirdo who died in the Waco Siege, John Isidore, the Master Control Program, Lain's dad, Cloudy J, Lighter Than Some, Sgt. Avery Johnson, Al Gore, Arby of Arby's lore, Maelcum of Zion, Nemu.

Fawkes's Blurbs

About me:

I am made of loose threads, bent pins, the magic touch, and some sheer stubbornness.

I spend a lot of time writing down that I should do things and less time doing them. For a very long time this profile bio was simple because It's hard to find the right way to explain yourself for others. I think my old intro was mostly helpful for the very few people who are me.

I'm a computer guy first, a gamer second, and a wizard third.

I try to be good, but it's hard and sometimes it feels like there's too much good to do. I try to be deliberate and contemplative, but it's hard and sometimes there's too much at hand to consider all carefully. I try to be consistent with my beliefs and actions, but it's hard and sometimes I forget my own preferences and betray them. I ask that you understand and hope that you can forgive.

I grew up with limited tools, but an environment in which I was generally allowed to do as I pleased with the tools I was given. I like to think that having to make my own fun often as a child guided the attitudes that I have towards my things today. It's rare that I don't tinker with my possessions to get them just right for me and once they are right for me, I try to repair and maintain them for as long as possible. Every time I visit my hometown my mom makes me buy new shoes because I'll wear a pair until I can't sew or glue them back together anymore.

I prefer to leave comments in public instead of using dms, as I like jumping into public conversations and having my conversations jumped into. Feels very open and welcoming to me, where leaving comments on empty profiles feels like shouting into the void sometimes.

I promise that I'm easy to talk to. I imagine that I can be kinda intimidating, but feel free to strike up conversation about any of my interests, your interests, or otherwise. To avoid feeling like I'm spamming people, I often treat commenting as a game of turns, so if you haven't gotten a comment in a while, it's because I'm trying to avoid being annoyingly chatty. Just hmu and I'll be on it.

PGP key if you need it.

Who I'd like to meet:

I'd like to meet people who want to use this site as an actual social media. I'm not here for nostalgia, nor am I here for custom css webpages (slick as fuck tho). I'm on spacehey because I legitimately believe that this iteration of social media was the healthiest we will ever get.

So add me if you think I'm cool and I'll add you back if I feel the same way. I keep my friends list small because I try to interact with my friends fairly often. This used to say daily, but that was a stick that burnt at both ends.

Sporks are fun, but do not often provide much utility. Like me.

so you claim, but i still like to use openpgp after you made that tutorial! very utilitarian. i think sporks are also useful but only when eating diced/chopped fruit

I do be listen to music. Haven't picked up that much new in a bit though, been slowly listening to everything I have ever liked before going out to seek new music again

Yeah I get that lol

I finished listening to all music I had ever liked and am back on music discovery now

by Fawkes; ; Report

My main source of music discovery is Spotify radios sadly I gotta be honest, so I usually find new stuff I like by listening to my already saved music

I see Pajama Sam in your recently-played list and I have to ask you if you've played Putt-Putt Saves The Zoo. There is an Imposing, Hairy, Very Australian car in it. I had it as a kid and found it INCREDIBLY difficult but I went back and re-played it under Steam's refund time limit and it was a breeze. This is proof that I am at least slightly smarter than I was when I was like 8.

I own it as part of the same humble bundle that got me access to pajama sam's sockworks, but have not done any more than open it like twice. That said, I have a friend who can speedrun that game in less than like 5 minutes.

Your friend obviously has no respect for the cutscenes.

I don't think speedrunners often do.
