Morning! It’s a gray and dismal rainy start to this Monday morning, the start of another work week. And, for me, the start of a new work sprint.
I already regret putting the Blaugust day in the post titles. I was trying to make it easier for anyone counting, but it really looks ugly.
MRI Complete
Yesterday I drove clear to the other side of the city to get an MRI on my neck. I drove a complete circuit around the circular bypass highways around the city.
The MRI itself was uneventful, and took ab…

Earlier this year I found myself suddenly coveting a retro handheld, possibly thanks to reading about joelchrono’s adventures with them. If you’re not familiar, they’re small gaming devices, typically running Linux or Android, that are designed to play old games from an SD card. It’s a pretty crazy market — there are several Chinese companies churning out multiple new models each year, and usually when you buy one it comes with thousands of games pre-loaded, which these Chinese companies obvious…

I've been wanting to redesign my website for some time. The turn-key 11ty "starter blog" I was using before was probably perfectly editable, but who wants to try and understand someone else's mistakes when you can start from scratch and make all of your own mistakes! At the same time, ever since I stopped streaming[1] (which was fun in its own right but was mainly to support podcasting) I've been missing the design-y aspect of streamer layouts.

Earlier this week at the AIDS 2026 conference in Rio de Janeiro, the State Department showed a map of Africa with six countries highlighted. Each country was identified incorrectly along with the funding amounts.

Avowed is an expansive RPG by Obsidian, the folks who developed Fallout New Vegas and the Pillars of Eternity series. Set in the same world as PoE, Avowed places you in the boots of a Godlike who has been chosen by the Emperor of the Aedyr Empire to figure out what is going on with the Dream Scourge, a plague affecting the Living Lands.
