yo no soy especial.

ni menos, otra hormiga obrera.

soy algo más interno — como un recuerdo que almacena y crece.

⋆ grey is my mantra ⋆

[makoiswhat]

¿cuánto de verdad hay en lo que publicas?

¿cuánta honestidad soporta una pantalla? consciente — no santo, solo lúcido en la trampa. te escondes en la misión del ayudar, pero a veces solo querías ser visto. no es injusto. solo humano. ⋆｡°☽

A veces puedo oírlos. Sin forma, ojos cerrados, llenándome.

Huelen a jabón terroso, a algo medio familiar. Pensamientos que no enfrento se hunden en silencio.

A veces me cuesta alcanzarme. Mi conciencia parece prestada, como si perteneciera a alguien que todavía no conozco.

Como el agua, que no deja de caer de la tormenta, intentan transformarme o borrar lo que queda.

Mi mente solo dice: cállenlos.

[makoiswhat]

maybe if i do it for myself,

everything will get better.

it’s about being human —

how words can slip under the skin,

reach the heart,

twist into someone’s point of view.

i just want to be part of it

so i can eat,

but nobody wants to share.

free,

free,

free.

she sells the solution

when they’re the problem.

I am playing World Racing 2 for PC... partially emulated on my PC. This sounds weird, but it's running with programs that translate code from an old GPU and sound card!

I have WR2 set to 640x480 windowed at max settings, wrapped to Vulkan with DXVK to fix the game's awful flashing and frame stutter issues on modern Windows and/or GPUs.

I then used a program called Magpie to rescale the window to 4K with its Lottes-CRT scaling mode, plus some tweaks Magpie lets you do to whatever shaders you've picked (In my case, Lottes-CRT).

For audio I'm using Creative ALchemy modded with the restriction remover, so I can get the EAX effects and better positionality WR2 supports.

DXVK and ALchemy translate (recompile) calls that a program makes (to the graphics card and EAX-supported sound card respectively) into something that works properly with modern OSes and hardware. This kinda thing's very important for preservation of old PC games!
