I'm a self-taught programmer from Australia. I began when I was about 9, but that was mostly just mucking
about with Repl.it and GitHub code.
I only use JavaScript. I don't know why.
I used to go under the name "sparkfire298". That name was a ripoff of my old favourite YouTuber,
Plainrock124. It's the exact same format and even character length.
I still use that name on sites like TikTok, Roblox, PSN, and Mastodon. Because I either don't know how to
change it, or don't care.
This website began in June 2024 and is my fourth site. Here is the first, the second, and the third.
Usually when I code stuff, I try to keep it as straightforward as possible, sometimes throwing in bits of
humour here and there, without hindering actual functionality
ex3 is a good example: there are multiple snarky replies, but, it doesn't hinder the way it works.
ex3: functional discord bot with miscellaneous commands
pigeon: basic discord AI chatbot

I also play video games, mostly BeamNG.drive. I used to play CS:GO a lot but mostly lost interest following the release of CS2. I've said this before: Valve took a full stable game and replaced it with a fraction of that content with more bugs and better lighting. Not a very Valve thing to do. Why couldn't CS2 become a separate release, just like every other Counter-Strike iteration? And to completely kill CS:GO?? Yeah, I know you can get it back in beta settings, but it's just not the same... I can't listen to my 3kliksphilip music kit!!
I also play GTA V/O. I was banned in October 2024, for cheating, which, yes, I was cheating. I lost everything, which hindered my desire to play it. I still play it, and rebuilt quite a fair bit, but it's a bit boring. Public lobbies are shit, they'll set it to public, but kick anyone who joins! Don't have it public!
I also occasionally make YouTube videos, mainly about music. And TikToks, about shitposts. You can find a list of my socials here.
I also also make semi-advanced Closed Captions, one notable composition is "Broke Gamer Tries Linux" by Bealyread. I spent
about 6 hours on them.
I make them in a Netflix/Vevo style, with speaker tags, musical notes, sometimes colouring and positions,
and so on.
I have a very diverse taste in music. My drive has 73 GB of high-fidelity music (~7000 songs), my Spotify has 800+ liked songs since June 2023, and my YouTube has over 5000 liked songs. I have a special place in my heart for big room EDM. It defined a lot of my childhood, festivals, Asphalt 8, whatnot.
My favourite artists are Daft Punk, Martin Garrix, Simon Viklund, Linkin Park, AC/DC, Avicii, and
Eminem.

I also have a 1998 Honda Odyssey RA3 Facelift (2.3L F23A7 VTEC I4) and a 1999 Honda Civic CXi (1.6L D16Y4 I4, manual), but they're unregistered and I only drive it around private property / the countryside.
Yes, I am a Gen Z, who can drive manual, lol
I use a Samsung Galaxy S20 FE. The Australia-New Zealand Dual SIM variant. Do with that as you will.
I also have some other phones I play around with, such as a 2017 3310 3G, Galaxy Pocket Neo, no idea what specific model, a 2017 J5 Pro, and an iPhone X. Currently, I'm maining that as my S20FE is mostly out-of-order because of water damage.
I am areligious. No, I'm not an insane anarchistic sinner, I just don't care. And no, I'm not an atheist. Those two are not the same thing.
