On this day, 10 years ago, at 03:36am, I committed the first lines of code to Kailua - officially kicking off development on Project Flower, and arguably the start of the rebirth of world arcade rhythm gaming. Happy Birthday, The Other Network. 🍰

So here in France we have a 5G-enabled electricity meter called Linky, which naturally here in the land where people who live in heaven think they live in hell there were all kinds of protests — Linky gives you cancer, makes your kids autistic, kills your dog, sets your house on fire, and so on.

Today marks the 10th anniversary of the shutdown of the BEMANI arcade service “Programmed World”, setting off a chain of events that lead to the creation of Project Flower about a month and a half later.

This is usually the day of the year that I'd be posting a big list of thank you's to people that helped me out through the year, but after what has easily been the worst of years with the loss of my mum, I don't really have the energy to do that this time around.

What I will say is this: thank you to everyone who interacted with me this year, and helped keep me as sane as could be hoped through 2024. Let's all do our best to make 2025 a good one.

You are up to date.
