I just came up with an idea for a Gemini browser. I saw somebody work on a client where they converte gemtext to HTML, for example converting = to <a tags. What if we went further and we grabbed any image links and made them <img tags, and have the browser have a random Neocities-like background. We could have a browser that makes Gemini look like Web 1.0! I would love this, what would you guys think?

The Italian Cartoon Network has been doing a stream of episodes and clips from The Amazing World of Gumball. I’ve been watching it a lot and it seems to be helping me with my Italian listening comprehension.

I was due to give a wee demonstration of my game for an online Scots language event, and I planned to reveal the new trailer for it. I rehearsed it last night with the host of the event and everything went well and the host gave me pointers. Fast Forward to tonight, and Zoom decided to crash every time I tried to share my screen, it had worked perfectly until today. I didn’t think to upload a copy beforehand, so spent most of the event waiting for it to upload to Youtube. We just barely got it in the last minute of the show! Was kind of a disaster, but hey, wasn’t my fault! I should upload whatever I stream next time to avoid what happened in the future…

I’m starting to have a much easier time understanding videos in Italian now. I was watching a clip of a Simpsons video in Italian that someone shared, and I understood about 90% of it without subtitles or needing to rewind! I can understand most native content, too. Been watching a few tech\history videos lately.

I just learned about people who make fake retro console restoration videos. Absolute scum of the earth…

I’ve been interacting with Italian communities lately as a way to practice my skills, and all of them really make me feel welcome. Far more so than most English speaking communities I’ve tried out. Vi voglio bene!

I just found out all of the major supermarkets where I live have stopped selling DVDs, CDs and Blu-Rays… There goes the last thing that makes them remotely worth visiting…

We have been with limited power and internet for the past week, and I’m honestly bored out of my mind! I can’t watch a film or play any console games, I’m stuck with whatever I’m able to do on my PC. I’ve decided to play through a bunch of classic Lucasarts Point and Click games I have to pass the time. Recently beat Sam & Max Hit the Road. Loved it!

There seems to be a problem with one of my certificates? When I try to go on Station on Lagrange for Android, I just get the “join station” link, but when I click on it, it brings me to me profile, with no option to post.

I finally got my game complete and glitchless enough for Magazines. I had to meet a deadline on the 10th and I just made it! 😮💨

An update broke the Kinect motion capture software I was using before, so had to use a trail for another one (ipi Mocap Studio), and wow it is so much better! Barely need any cleanup at all! Can only use it for 30 days, but the site says nothing about not being allowed to use what I make in that trial period for commercial use, so…

Well, I’ve tested positive for COVID. Had a good 2-3 year run without catching it.

Getting a wee bit concerned about my game’s sound situation. He hasn’t been responding to my messages, and I don’t have any backups myself so I can get someone else to do it. I have some deadlines coming up soon as well…

I watched the Sonic Frontiers gameplay preview, and honestly, it doesn’t look that bad to me. In fact it looks fun! What are people so up in arms about?

I started watching The Jungle Book on Laserdisc. It looks and sounds great but unfortunately, side A is scratched, and it’s caused one of the scenes to keep skipping and pausing… I thought my player was going to give way trying ti play it!

I dunno if it’s my browsers I use or the capsules themselves, but sometimes when I try to explore Gemini using LEO or Gemini Roulette, some links don’t work at all, and it really gets in the way of the fun…

I opened up a minidisc and put some songs on it, and noticed one of them kept skipping. I listened to the source file. Sounded fine. The rest of the tracks played fine as well, so I decided to copy it over again, and now it plays perfectly. I have no idea what happened.

I got a new phone today. (Galaxy Z Flip 3) I didn’t sign into anything when setting up and then immediately proceeded to “ungoogle” the phone, deleted the Google apps and set F-droid as my main storefront for apps. (Set up Aurora as well for apps I can’t get on F-droid)

I got Spiderman on VHS from a market yesterday, and noticed the lid had snapped and was hanging on one edge, so I grabbed the lid from a donor tape I didn’t want, and did a swap job, and it worked, though it no longer snaps back into place, but that doesn’t seem to affect anything. The film plays fine, btw. It’s Open Matte and the transfer is fantastic, almost DVD quality!

I was at music practice, when someone I know from there approached me and asked if I’d be a drummer for his band. I figured why the hell not? He then said that he wanted to contact me online, but couldn’t become I wasn’t on any social media. I thought to myself “Mission accomplished!”

I got a cassette tape job lot a while back, and went to open up another tape in it and realised that it was a type II! I don’t know how the compatibility with tape types work, but it worked no problem with my deck. So I put some songs on it, and sure enough, there’s definitely less hiss than Type I!

Since quitting social media, I’ve noticed that a lot of people who still use it are unnecessarily aggressive and sometimes quick to insult in an argument. Would make sense given that social media makes us angry for engagement. I don’t know if correlation equals causation here, but on the SmolNet and BBS, both of which are full of people who hate social media, it’s way more chill. Arguments happen, but they fell less heated and usually end on good terms. I’ve found myself to be a lot less judgemental and short tempered in general, too.

I’ve noticed that since I’ve been using a dip pen for my diary and taking notes (Which I’m getting the hang of now!). I’ve been looking forward to writing, and sometimes if I have ink left, I try to find an excuse, any excuse, to write something.
