Weekly Wrap Up (2025.08.22)

Another week down for Blaugust, though I am not at all actively trying to reach any goal for that. I am not even properly promoting my posts in the Blaugust Discord. But now I'm pushing more filler t the bottom of these posts, with links lists that used to be separate posts. So I got that going for me. Games If I were still theming these around games in the title, it would be "What I'm Not Playing Edition." Though I think I used that one before. I uninstalled Overwatch, again, again, again, again, again, again… Ok, this isn't supposed…
Project – Raspberry Pi – Webcam Project and Updating Pihole

Project – Raspberry Pi – Webcam Project and Updating Pihole

On my little list of projects, I mentioned a webcam set up. My wife asked me about something for monitoring the cats while we are out. The ideal place would be in the front room area. I have plenty of Pis floating around and an extra Logitech cam, but I also already have one Pi in that area running my PiHole. There isn't any reason I couldn't attach the cam, to that Pi. It ended up being a bit more work than expected, but not really for any negative reasons. I found an easy guide for setting up Motion on…

Game Hacking – Installing Homebrew on my 3DS

Man, talk about some monkey paw ass shit. I have finally after wanting to do it for, a good while now, installed Homebrew on my 3DS. The process is relatively simple, or more it SHOULD be relatively simple. I followed this guide here. I'm linking that page instead of the actual guide I used because the methods vary based on operating system, 3DS Model, Software version, etc. So for more clarity, I followed THIS guide, for my New 3DS with up to date software. The process should have been easy but I ran into a few issues. Specifically, after installing…

Weekly Wrap Up (2025.08.16)

It's Friday now, as I start to write this. I am off work, the first of many fridays off, because i never really go on vacations and have vacation time to use up. Since I'm the only one in my local office, I can't really take like, a month off or something. I don't know that I would want to. Hell I can't really justify to myself taking a week off to just do nothing. If I were going out of town I could, but staying in town feels dodgy. Besides, I rather like my 4 day work weeks. Blaugust…
Blue Sky Archives

Blue Sky Archives

I'm going to touch on the entire discography here for Blue Sky Archives, it's only 3 EPs, each with 3 songs, and a couple of singles. So it's effectively just, one album's worth of music. But first I want to touch on why the group is significant. It's a precursor band to one of my favorite bands, CHVRCHES. Specifically, it's one of two groups that CHVRCHES lead singer Lauren Mayberry was a part of before CHVRCHES. The albums themselves (maybe not all, but Triple-A Side for sure) were produced by Iain Cook, also of CHVRCHES. Anyway, the three EPs are,…
