In the whole 2025 I’m always trying to be more outside. Meet more strangers and feel more fleeting gazes.
Maybe I’m already get ready for more long travels? I really want to meet more friends in the different cities. Can I really do it?

Whisper: someone said I’m cute ^=^

On designs

After Google’s Material Design 3 Expressive, Apple released their new design system Liquid Glass. Now the whole world is shifting to using more and more glass effects. But people(customers) love glass, so I accept this fed.
But overall, they are all way better than linux desktops. qwq

Emm, another thing is that Nothing(a company name) will release a new flagship android phone: Phone (3)
It will not released until July, so now there’s nothing fun to talk about.

Speaking of Nothing, I switched my system and editor fonts recently.
For monospace font the choice is still Monaspace(by GitHub Next) but using different family: Argon -> Xenon. Also means sans-serif to serif.
I’m discovering serif font recently. Nothing is famous precisely because their graph and hardware designs, why not use their font directly? For that I find this repository: Yokilleurs/NothingFonts.

But be honest, unlike my previous choice Google Sans, their fonts are not quite so generic. So compact, so artistic. The system UI font still required sans-serif fonts.
But I used NType Mono for my window title. That doesn’t matter, dose it? Reasonable sacrifice for art:

I think that’s all.

Development

In June 2025, I only created 23 commits on github. I haven’t focused on programming since April.
However, Now I have a long-standing repository of my solutions to algorithm problems: SourLemonJuice/algorithm-problems-archive.

Games

I didn’t spend too much time on gaming, but I did want to finish OneShot in July.

One big change is about Heroic Games Launcher, a great manager for linux gaming. I migrated all my “Non-Steam Game” to Heroic, easy to open winecfg, explicit wine prefix path. That’s way more useful.

“Non-Steam Game” referred to pirated games, but it also covered regular windows apps(e.g. NetEase Cloud Music).

And… I finally switched my Steam UI language to English. :)
I’m really concerned about cultural issues… The publisher set up the different marketing materials for each language zone, even some game covers are also different.
I… don’t know.

Ending

I missed someone’s invitation and let their down. I’m sorry for that, if you can see this.
Maybe I should plan for only next two weeks?

Even though the pride month has ended, I think I’ll still keep that rainbow emoji on some of my messaging platforms.
Why not, especially at today.
