Code Project – JavaScript Dice Roller Game

I mentioned in my Python Class posts that I really enjoyed the instructor and I planned to eventually move to doing her Web Dev Course. Well, I've started working on that one. It's not a "100 Days of Projects" so I've not been quite blitzing through it like I did the Python Course, and it's a lot of material I am already way more familiar with. Hell, I skipped over the first third of the course because it was the same HTML/CSS content included int he Python Course. My main goal here, is to get much more familiar with JavaScript.…

What I’ve Been Playing Recently

I came up with a good "post series" name the other day but like a dumb-ass, I didn't write it down anywhere so I've forgotten it. Let this be a lesson to the younger folks out there, you can't rely on your memory forever, it eventually becomes filled with nonsense like the names of Mario Brothers monsters from 40 years ago. I use all sorts of reminder notifications and note taking methods in my daily life, but that sort of topic is much more apt for Blogging Intensifies Lameazoid than here. Here, I want to just talk about video games,…

Code Project: Fresh RSS to WordPress Digest

I actually briefly mentioned this project when I write about moving from TinyTinyRSS to FreshRSS. This has become a bit of an evolving and ongoing project however, so I've decided to catalogue it in it's own page. This little script worked out much better than I expected, and I've modified it a bit over time, and have ideas to modify it going forward even more. Starting off, the code can be found here in this Github GIST. I've left a bit of commented out code that i might use later for troubleshooting or adding additional features. The general gist of…

Code Project: VLC Portable Playlist to Text Dump

It's kind of funny how one post can lead to another sometimes.  This one is pretty basic but it also just shows a bit how useful I find knowing my way around computer systems to be.  Yesterday I posted about my little annual music playlists.  And as part of that, I wanted to actually post the playlist. I am pretty sure there is a fairly universal "playlist file type" out there and being open source, I had assumed that VLC on my phone stored the playlists somewhere in playlist files. That assumption was wrong, it uses a .db file.  A…

Review – Wario Land 3 (GBC) (2000)

The next part of my reverse adventure through the Wario Land Franchise, is Wario Land 3.  I decided I had enough to say about this game that it kind of deserved it's own post all it's own.  I've finished the game, though I did not (yet) collect all of the 100 treasures.  I have no idea what Wario Land 2 is like, maybe that game is similar in nature to this one, though I will say, this gives me a bit of new perspective on Wario Land 4 which I'll touch on a bit as well.
