I wasn't enthused for Star Trek: Starfleet Academy when I first heard about it during Discovery, but I actually really enjoyed the first episode. The Holly Hunter-led cast has a great dynamic and a bunch of cool and unique characters.

The new mobile IDs we've rolled out for card locks here at work are awesome on iPhone, but being able to use my Apple Watch as well is the real killer app.

Pysched to hear that Mother Nature is going to be actively joining the fight against ICE in Minnesota next week.

Spork's Biscuit Bar sounds incredibly appealing to me. Worth a bus ride downtown I'll bet. Just confirmed that it's basically on the City Line and an 11 minute ride journey from my office at GU.

I had the last laugh on Wizards dropping the Mastery Pass pre-order bundle and spent the money I originally planned to spend on that on Hytale instead. I'm not quitting Arena or anything, particularly during Lorwyn Eclipsed, but once the TMNT set drops, Arena is going to the back of the gaming priority line.
🧙♂🎮 JAN 13 10:40
I named my first Hytale save First World Problems.

Just saw that Marked 3 has a much more palatable pricing structure at $3 a month now. I have yet to try the demo or anything, but the epub functionality had me pretty interested from the beginning and I'm huge fan of Brett Terpstra and his work.

Hytale doesn't actually require macOS Tahoe from what I can tell. Houston is trying it out on Sequoia right now.
⚽️ JAN 12 12:04
Spurs finally get Conor Gallagher! I'm pleased. The dude is a home grown winner who impressed me when he was on loan at Palace, and yet Chelsea always seemed more interested in moving him on.
🎮 JAN 12 10:20
Hytale looks pretty cool, I think I'll probably use the money I would have spent on the Lorwyn Mastery Pass and use it to get a Standard Pre-Purchase. Houston seems to want the Supporter Pre-Purchase.

Menus with icons for every single menu item and windows with corner radiuses so large that they only recognize resize clicks outside the window itself is UI malpractice. I'm going to hold the line on minimal Tahoe adoption at work as long as I possibly can and indefinitely on my personal machines.

The free STA bus pass I get through work now works via the STA Connect app rather than my ID card. I find this preferable as I'd rather scan my phone screen instead of swiping my card, but set up was a little bit fiddly.

Finally watched Miyazaki's Whisper of the Heart with the family and thoroughly enjoyed the not actually fantastical Japanese slice of life middle school romance.
⚽️ JAN 10 12:03
Another very disappointing home loss for Spurs as they lose to Villa 1-2 in the third round of the FAC Cup.

Fascinated to learn proper spiral Minecraft staircase construction technique today after being dissatisfied with everything I've come up with on my own so far. Slabs are the way.

The new limited edition (1901 printed?!) all-white commemorative FA Cup jerseys are going to make a killing for the knock-off stores.
🏀 JAN 08 21:27
Great game tonight with 4-0 Zags vs 4-0 Santa Clara tied 37-37 at the half.

FM 26 is starting to get a fair amount of mods and falsobohemio has done a megapack with a ton of additional men's and women's leagues. Of particular interest to me is the USL Super League support, but it just says it's activated so unclear to me how accurate it actually is.
