Tonight's family game was Scrabble. My team won, but there were some big point moves late.
🏀 MAR 16 2025 21:26
Gonzaga getting an 8 seed seems really low considering their Ken Pom ranking. Wild potential round-two matchup with Houston who can't be loving their draw.
🏃 MAR 16 2025 17:03
Good late Sunday afternoon run with the girls. Went about 3.5K total in an easy 20:23 total. It's fun seeing that their easy pace is getting faster.

Feeling kind of burned out on MTG this morning. I'd like to play BAF instead of course, but still having controller woes.

Spurs lost 2 - 0 at Fulham. Sessegnon comes in and beasts Davies for a worldy second goal after Spense just let him go unmarked. Bergvall robbed of an equalizing penalty a few minutes before.

Paradise S1E8: The Man Who Kept the Secrets 👍👍 Amazing and unexpected finish to season one. Excited for season 2.
🍏🎮 MAR 15 2025 10:59
Heh, the updated version of Bang Average Football likes my controller even less than before. So weird given that it tests perfectly in the SDL 2 gamepad tool and macOS itself.
🍏🎮 MAR 14 2025 21:25
Going to give the Logitech F310 a shot since that's a peripheral brand I trust and this model has been around forever. Sending the Game Cube adapter back because it didn't work in the way I had hoped.
🍏🎮 MAR 14 2025 19:30
It sounds like Sequoia supports wired Xbox 360 gamepads, so that's probably the route that I'll try next.
📺 MAR 14 2025 09:06
Severance S2E9: The After Hours 👍👍 Solid episode, especially enjoyed the Milchick segments as he landed some haymakers on Drummond and Huang without laying a finger on them. Very curious to see how the season finale will play out with so many characters seemingly off the board for now.

Got an email back from Representative Baumgartner regarding my message about my disappointment regarding his reaction to the Ukraine/White House debacle. Appreciate that his staff followed though on my request to provide a response.
⚽️🎮 MAR 13 2025 21:37
Having a good time with Bang Average Football even though my gamepad isn't fully compatible, but I've got to get the lob functionality working if I want to advance further.
⚽️🎮 MAR 13 2025 15:02
Bang Average Soccer is super fun, but my cheap gamepad isn't properly recognized by the 1.0.15a version and switches A and B and X and Y. 1.0.17 is supposed to fix that.
⚽️ MAR 13 2025 14:56
Spurs 3 - 1 AZ (3-2) on aggregate thanks to a brace from Wilson Oderbert sandwiching a Maddison finish. Bergvall was great in the 6 tonight other than the moment of madness that allowed AZ to score.
⚽️🎮 MAR 13 2025 10:04
Bang Average Football acquired. Time to try it out shortly and see how I do.
🧙♂ MAR 12 2025 16:42
Messed around with Dimir Mill in constructed today. Had fun but it wasn't great.
🏀 MAR 11 2025 20:03
How ugly was that one? The two teams were a combined 1-31 from 3!
🏀 MAR 11 2025 20:02
Gonzaga defeats SMC 58 - 51 in an ugly one with a sweet ending.
🏀 MAR 11 2025 18:23
Ben Gregg with a career highlight poster dunk on Saxen.
🏀 MAR 11 2025 18:17
Mark Few couldn't ask for a better start from his squad as they come out and quickly establish a 14 - 5 lead in the first 5 minutes.
🏀 MAR 11 2025 10:38
GU men got it done in crunch time last night and will get an SMC rematch tonight. GU women blew it against OSU yet again (I was there for the first time in December).
🍏⚙️ MAR 10 2025 20:14
I just discovered the Macintosh screensaver moving desktop that I think debuted with Sequoia and it is amazing!
🍏⚙️ MAR 10 2025 19:39
Tried my first OpenCore Sequoia install tonight and it worked surprisingly well. Probably try a few more later this week.
📝 MAR 10 2025 13:29
As of today crossed 350,000 words lifetime at 750 Words. That seems like a pretty big number, but it's actually only around 8% of what I could have written over that span if I kept the habit up the whole time.
🏖️ MAR 10 2025 10:04
Campus is predictably dead today with faculty and students off on spring break.
🙄 MAR 10 2025 07:50
A lot more people in my immediate vicinity at work shortly after 7 am today, which I actually find quite annoying as I'm starting my week. It's all related to our recent moves though so it's not their fault.
🥱 MAR 09 2025 21:47
Tired and about ready for bed.
🧙♂📚 MAR 09 2025 17:06
Assembled the first half of Tarkir - Dragonstorm stories into an epub this morning so I can start reading on my phone. Hopefully the second half will be out tomorrow. Love the fact that they've switched to webp for all their images now.
🏃 MAR 09 2025 17:02
Drove over to the Children of the Sun trail for a quick Sunday afternoon run with the girls. First time we've run back-to-back days in quite a while. My legs were tired from yesterday, so I had no problem taking it easy, but we still ran a pretty fast pace.
🏃 MAR 08 2025 18:06
Had my fastest run in a long time today (still pretty slow by my in-shape pre-pandemic standards) and ran 3.66K in 19:27. S stayed with me through the first 2.5K I think before fading a little. I didn't start out planning to do it, but I felt good and just went with it.
