Judgmental Concerns

Thinking back to a few days ago, I find myself disappointed in some of the things I was saying, when out drinking. Sure, this was said quietly to someone I trust, but I found that the things I was saying were oddly ugly and judgmental. To be [...]

Working and not much else

Been getting a few good days of lots of work, lately, combined with generally moving forward on OctoberProject. In fact, working toward this OctoberPlains release candidate build has been feeling more fast-paced than I expected. Lots of play [...]

Re: Entertaining Channel: Overly Sarcastic Productions

I hope that you like it. I find that channel both informative and entertaining.

That is annoying, that you didn't see this for a while. It is something I have noticed with IPFS: It tends to be pretty bad at finding things with few providers [...]

Re: Interesting photo I took.

That is a pretty good picture.

Will the new braces help you to not need the chair?

Entertaining Channel: Overly Sarcastic Productions

I rarely find a channel with so much content which is interesting, concise, and surprisingly funny. I figured I would point it out (especially since some of it is talking about writing tropes, which is probably of interest to many people with that [...]

Re: Cats Motivation

No, the problem is just an IPFS issue which does eventually resolve (the "who has what" information isn't always available everywhere). I think that there is just a Cacophony bug in how I am attempting to re-fetch this. I should probably look into it.

Re: Needing to be more Social.

Interesting that you are finding value in some kind of creative outlet. I think that this is probably something which generally makes people feel better since it is creation and/or expression, both being expressions of agency, in a way which [...]

Re: Cats Motivation

I wonder if there is a bug in Cacophony. At first, this video wasn't cached due to IPFS not being able to find it (this is an IPFS issue which I can't work around) but now it looks like it can but I can't force the item to be cached. I will need [...]

Progression

I think I am feeling a bit better today, than yesterday. Maybe this is just a cold that took an oddly long time to come on since it otherwise feels more like one (still not sure, though).

In any case, mostly just sneezing with the occasional [...]

Weak body and restless mind

Didn't do much yesterday and today woke up feeling as though this might be some kind of actual illness. Still not sure but I do feel worse than the past few days.

However, what bothers me most is that I just don't feel very inspired to get more [...]

Uncertain Illness Management

I have been kind of sick since yesterday afternoon. That is, I have had a slight sore throat. So, I cancelled my plans for yesterday evening and today, just staying home.

Now, this bothers me since it is clearly over-sensitivity in light of the [...]

Re: Reminders of Disconnection

Sure, we can do that so long as it looks interesting to you and is a reasonable amount of money for you to spend on a game.

Other than that, the only other interesting thing going on is that OctoberProject work is slowly moving forward. So, that [...]

Re: Reminders of Disconnection

We can talk soon but I never have much to say. Hence why I want to do that while playing a game, or something, since I like the company but don't have much to discuss.

Re: Reminders of Disconnection

Aww, thanks. I hope that what has been keeping you busy is at least interesting.

Reminders of Disconnection

Whenever I need to go do something involving LinkedIn, it gives me such an unpleasant feeling.

On one level, there is the disingenuous feeling of how people's comments are structured, being unnaturally excited about trivialities for the purposes of [...]

Days like these

The day after a night out is always strange, for me. First of all, there is the practically-guaranteed hangover. After pain-killers, that is mostly just feeling hungry and tired all day, though.

Beyond that, however, is just a strangely intense [...]

Re: Feeling out of shape

I think that is part of why I like those "survival" sort of games: They fill some interest to create and build physical things.

Went to Dundas to help my Dad with some yard work and light landscaping, yesterday. It was a long day of physical labour but we got a lot done. In the picture, we were cleaning, moving, and re-levelling those path stones while also working out a [...]

Re: Nasri in Toronto

Was he involved in writing this one?

Shades of Humanity

I had a strange dream, last night. Strange in just how pleasant it was. I woke to wondering what is different in my mind to create that.

After all, I rarely remember dreams and they are usually more "neutrally confusing", as opposed to anything [...]

Re: Constantly re-thinking motion in OctoberProject

Uggh, I _thought_ I had completed all the bigger changes but I realized, in my last-minute play-testing, that slower creatures are still having issues with the recent movement changes.

This means that I need to make a more thorough change to the AI [...]

Re: Constantly re-thinking motion in OctoberProject

Well, not sure what I would call a "proper release" but the first in the "pre-release series" will probably be out tomorrow (just want to make a few small changes - the bigger changes completed today). The demo10 release (from a few weeks ago) is [...]

Re: Crazy Weather

Did you not even get the heavy rain in your area? I know that my parents had some flooding in their homes, down around Hamilton.

Crazy Weather

Today's rainfall was definitely heavier than I have seen in a very long time. It actually managed to cause flooding on the ground floor of my building and knocked out power to the area for about 2.5 hours (so I now know my UPS can power my E-Mail [...]

Re: New Draft - 1869023667

Sounds like a good kind of get-together, and good to hear you are managing to all maintain those plans.

In my adult life, I have only ever lived in towers, and they always had no-BBQ rules which I always assumed were related to fire hazards, or [...]
