oh i completely forgot about that, i think i even used that trick once a couple years ago

Is there a way for a page to not show up in the "feed"?

not without burying it by changing/uploading five other pages or deleting the update entirely

however, it is possible to style XML files using CSS to make them appear like html webpages, and if you upload or change an XML file it will not generate a thumbnail or appear on the feed

example: suboptimalism.neocities.org/secret/wang.xml

Thanks so much for listening, I love Boris and AoP are class too. Actually going in to track guitars on another four in a week or two. Using this site to (attempt to) catalog them a bit.

my friend who plays the most video games works at a defense contractor, developing Massive Murder Machines, since it's a low-stress job that allows him plenty of time to come home and game all evening

though i also know another guy from the forums i posted on that lived in a van, worked part time jobs or made money repairing old consoles and doing mods, and spend as much time as he could to playing the oldiest wonkiest nes games

i don't know if the second guy has attained anything approaching buddhahood, but i always admired him. since he actually played retro games on original hardware over and over rather than merely talk about CRTs (what most retro gamers do), he had all sorts of insights about the endless wonders hidden in these tiny pixel worlds

(also i feel obligated to spoil the fun by pointing out the buddha explicitly discouraged his followers from playing games: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_games_that_Buddha_would_not_play)

i need to play all those Buddha-hated games

Now, if you were to make a composite of those two people, you would end up with something like Palmer Luckey's life. Lol Maybe a Buddha discouraged game playing because they can disconnect one from reality sometimes, in the same way that a drone weapon tends to remove one from the consequences of their own decisions. When you automate killing with a disposition matrix, you end up with Ellison's AM.

unemployed people seem to possess the hidden knowledge of life; the wagecage wrecks the body, mind and soul.

nah, it really existed since October 2024, i was trapped in a hyperbolic time chamber before then.

Huh 😭
