Weekly Wrap Up (2025.12.20)

Kind of feels like an odd line up this week, and I am trying to "encourage" myself to post more individual posts on some things, like gaming. Gaming I actually have been playing the LEGO Fortnite a fair bit. Primarily with some sandboxy elements on, so I can quickly build little villages, but still fight things. I doubt this lasts very long sadly, the game play loop is just... not that deep. Especially with the material grinding removed. Anyway, I hope to post more detail on it later. Truck Sim has its Christmas event going on. The mechanics are very…

Weekly Wrap Up (2025.12.06)

Normally this time of year I would be doing Advent of Code. This year they changed the way its run, no leader boards, less exercises. The leader boards thing seems to be somewhat in retaliation for people using AI. It removes the incentive to get done super quick. They also kind of sucked depending on your time zone. I already quit on Day 1. I got stuck on part 2, I tried, I changed things I rethought what was happening, I even maybe sort of found a problem, but I couldn't work it out. I even did my usual method…

Weekly Wrap Up (2025.11.22)

Aye, I kind of have things to ramble about this week. Gaming I started on UFO Robot Grendizer: The Feast of the Wolves. Its been on my list for a while. Its, kind of super awesome. Big chonkey robot combat, super cheezy old school anime plot and moments. I feel like the controls are maybe a little overly complex, but I can get used to it. Its also interesting how there are so many modes of gameplay depending on what is going on. Grendizer is a giant robot, but there is also a flying Space mode for when Grendizer combines…

Weekly Wrap Up (2025.11.09)

I wasn't going to bother posting a wrap up this week, not a lot going on really.  No new music, no new toy stuff, I already wrote twice about my microblog code project (That's two links there)   In boring life news, I went and  finally set up an annual check up with a new doctor.  My old one retired, I kept putting it off.  Unlike everyone else in my house, I don't have any sort of critical or chronic conditions that really require a doctor (that I know of).  I can buy my Omeprazole OTC.   In sad news, we had…

Weekly Wrap Up (2025.11.01)

I feel like there was SOMETHING I wanted to ramble about in this little opening bit but I can not for the life of me remember. Fairly busy week at work, but I don't really like to discuss work here much. Toys Big boy Omega Supreme came in. He is big and pretty sweet. Bigger than I expected. I like it, which is good, because at this point I am basically spent on buying for a bit. Especially anything large. Anyway, have some pics, I will try to motivate myself for a more thorough write up later. Nothing else new,…
