Jentry Chau vs. The Underworld really took off for me from episode 7 on, 4, 5, and 6 were a little meh to me.

Kind of disappointed in Game Character Hub PE so far. Unfortunately out of the box it's geared towards VX Ace and newer.

Another incredibly disappointing Spurs loss today. Up 1-0 at the break immediately concede 2 goals in the first 5 minutes of the second half. Porro decision making was bad again.

Realized that the default weapons sprites for the knife and boomerang are broken in RPG Maker 2003 so spent a while figuring out how to correct them. Knife turned out well, boomerang looks better from a lefthanded perspective.

Good run with the girls. The new North 40 store is really coming together. I expect it will be fully closed off within another week or two.

Coffee acquired, time for Friday afternoon productivity push!
π₯± JAN 24 2025 12:49
Feeling kind of sleepy and drained. Probably time to get a coffee refresh.

I've watched a ton of RPG Maker 2003-related Youtube videos this week and I continue to be impressed with how much you can do with that version despite its limitations.
πΎ JAN 24 2025 09:00
Game Character Hub Portfolio Edition is on sale on Steam for 75% right now and is Mac compatible so I'm probably going to pick it up.

Sequoia's built-in window sizing-stuff is a little annoying when you don't fully understand how to work with it.

Figured out some EasyRPG Player stuff on macOS yesterday and wrote it up. Next up I need to put together a list of free indie rm2k3 games to try.
π JAN 22 2025 13:02
Trying out a Chrome pinboard.in extension in Orion. The icon kind of disappears in dark mode, but I can access it via keystroke so it doesn't matter too much.
π₯Ά JAN 22 2025 08:49
Back in the office and layered up today. Still have my down vest on so that makes three.
πΊ JAN 21 2025 21:13
Made it through episodes 6 & 7 of Skeleton Crew with the family tonight and still really enjoying it.
πΎ JAN 21 2025 21:11
Kind of feel like making something in RPG Maker 2K3, but curious to see what kind of free tile and sprite resources there are out there.

Fascinated to learn that Fish 4.0 was a complete rewrite in Rust Ship of Theseus style. Also impressive that its installer pkg for macOS supports 10.9+.

Back to the grindstone today, but at least I get to start off my work week at home.
π JAN 20 2025 22:45
Hmm, Onyx Storm is out. I actually have a Target gift card that would cover most of the cost.
πΊ JAN 20 2025 18:59
Finally getting around to season 4 of Slow Horses and episode 1 is an absolute banger! It's so fun to see all those "rejects" again and looking forward to seeing how the two plot lines converge.

Productive day off around the house. Finally unclogged the bathroom sink on the main flor.
π JAN 20 2025 16:49
I didn't watch either game, but Gonzaga played appalling defense and lost to both Oregon State and Santa Clara last week.
πΊπΈ JAN 20 2025 16:44
Mostly ignored the inauguration, but apparently, Elon did a Nazi salute. I wonder how Trump feels about all that lost attention?

New fuel injector did the job and my daughter's car is running smoothly once again. Going to take it on a quick test drive before I turn it back over to her.
π₯Ά JAN 20 2025 07:55
It was 11Β°F this morning when I woke up. Not great weather to be working on my daughter's car out in the garage even with the door closed.

Spurs lost to Everton 2 - 3 today and more crucially have a ton of additional injuries. More fans are turning on Postecoglou, but Son was terrible today, Porro was poor, Maddison was disappointing, and we have even more injuries.
ππ§ JAN 19 2025 15:01
Confirmed the bad fuel injector is getting a signal from the connector and must have just failed. Replacement arrives tonight and I also ordered some replacement o-rings for the three I'm leaving alone since they all come out when you pull the fuel rail.

I love how the emoji picker eventually stops working properly in Safari text boxes if I don't relaunch it regularly enough.
π₯± JAN 18 2025 22:53
Feeling super drained. Spent a lot of mental energy on the car repair today.
ππ§ JAN 18 2025 11:15
Car engine issues continue. Replaced the coils yesterday and still rough at startup with check engine light. I do feel like it idles a little better now, need the new engine scanner I have on order to confirm cylinder 1 is still misfiring.
