Looking at the PlayStation online store Black Friday sales and there's a Digimon game originally for $69.99 on sale for... $62.99. That's not even a sale, man. math.ceil( price ) is still $70 either way. 🥴

Oh it only took me 21 hours to get thru the Expedition 33 story. Three days of holiday time. :P

That includes some amount of side exploration and such, not just burning straight thru the story.

So if you're like me and scared of picking up RPGs because if the time commitment... Well doing the […]

My friend's 4 year old was asking me for a (toy) "flip phone". I tend to prefer making things instead of buying cheap plastic. I do have some air dry clay, now I'm trying to think of how I'd make a hinge feature on two separate pieces to make this boy a clay flip phone. 😂

[ai slop]

Just had to spend 30 mins debunking an AI slop issue+PR on a project of mine that falsely claimed the existence of a bug that caused a panic.

The example they provided:

- Did not even compile
- Did not panic even when fixed to compile
- Did not even demonstrate the claim being made […]

Expedition 33 - I had to set it to story mode difficulty because it's hard for me to time the dodge/parry without more visual cues for proper timing 🥲 jump dodges show a symbol... With other attacks I dodge too soon cuz everything's attack animations are slow. Or sooner than I realized. And I'm […]

A tech feature I miss from the before E**n times of Birdsite is the ability to upload screenshots directly to Birdsite from PlayStation. :T
Now I just photograph my TV like it's 1993.

I guess the whole "vote with your wallet" thing is kinda BS at this scale, I'm just an ant, but the options I see are:

1. Only purchase their games that have no AI (old stuff) when at a discount, or

2. Don't purchase any products from the company that has begun using AI.

I lean toward 2. If […]

I decided to start playing the demo of DQ XI and damnit... I don't want to give Square Enix money after their mass layoffs and dedication toward AI. >.>

My first quest of today was "find my glasses", which had fallen off the side table. Technique: phone in video mode + flash on (permanent flashlight). Took me a bit (they fell into my computer bag) but I found them.

If anyone needs point-and-click adventure puzzle ideas for modern day.

I'm 5ish hours into FF3 3D that I had on my phone since however long ago, but I'm finding that I want to go back to Dragon Quest. 😭

I guess I really enjoy things just being open and you go to different towns and figure out where you're going. FF has always felt more linear, which can be okay […]

Making temporary PROGRAMMER ART as is the natural order of things. NOT using AI for mockups or placeholders. :P

It might be time to write a Makefile for Christmas Horse. All previous years I had been using Code::Blocks to build it... but I almost exclusively use emacs now. :T

Actually I need to stop being distracted and work on code for Christmas Horse 6,

YouTube suggested
"You Should Code in Game Boy Assembly" by System of Levers, and now I'm watching his video that says I should write a Game Boy emulator, and also perusing documentation and example code. :P

OK, done with being-on-campus and meetings for the week. Tomorrow I get to actually buckle down and aggregate my AI research and notes into some written form with the intent of mostly distributing to fellow teachers, but also to just have a place where all my links to articles and summary notes are.

There was a ladder laying in the left most lane on 435 hwy, I think near the Metcalf exit or so. I wasn't able to avoid it so I hit it with the side of my car. Guess we'll see if my tires are flat after class.
