Not much to report… Worked on a project and listened to an episode of Welcome To Night Vale:
Valentines Day is a scary fucking time in Nightvale.

No Wonder I’m Always Tired
Ever since purchasing my PineTime Smart Watch I’ve been keeping track of my steps. I seem to range anywhere between 15k to 20k, usually in the hundreds on the weekends. Today ended at 18,974 steps. I didn’t really think I did a lot of moving around, at least until monitoring my tracks.
Gaben Claus!
The Lord & Savior of PC Gaming has graced his presence to a few very lucky Q1 recipients!
Praise be to him! May his pool forever flow eternal with sub sandwiches. 😀
Sunday Night Open Thread
I don’t have much to write. It’s been a cold blustery day perfect for trying new blends of tea, and enjoying good food and gaming. I played a little more of Postal 4, did a few quests and quit to prevent motion sickness. There was also some server tinkering in Garry’s Mod, and I even played a little bit of the Shadow Warrior games — they look gorgeous in 4K! Looking forward to the third installment! If it’s like the other two games it’ll be a graphical ball buster. 😛
I might have enough energy to go back to making horrifying things tomorrow, perhaps something sharable? 😛

Starting The Weekend By Going Postal
I was in a mood for something stupid this evening, some mindless mayhem to kick off the weekend. So, I scanned through my seemingly infinite library of entertainment, and Postal 4 won my undivided attention. There I went, wandering the deserts of Arizona in a quest for ridiculous amusement, and I was not disappointed by my findings.
The Postal games are basically an over the top comedically horrible open world exploration game, and it’s so bad that it’s good. It’s an open world game featuring innuendos and crude humour from start to finish.
Played for a little over an hour before calling it quits. It was pretty much what I expected in terms of quality (as evidenced in the top left of the screenshots). It’s quite an interesting universe, somehow able to be both beautiful and ugly at the same time.
Even the game knows it can go as low as buttsauce!
Aaaaaaand now it’s the perfect game.
How To Irritate People: Wear a Mask AND Colour Coordinate
I was minding my own business one day (no really I was!) during my lunch break. While browsing the candy section I could overhear a couple getting triggered about people who colour coordinate their masks with their outfits… which I’ve been doing. We’re supposed to be lifting the mask mandate in my state soon, but I plan on wearing mine still. Aside from the obvious it does help my allergies, and I haven’t had a cold in a couple years. In light of that I’ve been collecting all kinds of masks, ranging to game themed to just patterns and solids. This week has been a Mortal Kombat mask themed week, and tomorrow I’ll finish it off with a Dragon Mask.
Perhaps a mask fashion show is in order. 😛
Creative Warmth
I forgot that I had this particular scene to work on before commencing what I call: “Operation Batman Diary”. Fortunately it’s small; I’ll probably have it ready to render tomorrow. I was kind of wanting to render it tonight to keep the room warm; Once again we’re experiencing the “Coldest Winter Ever™” and this would have been nice to warm to sleep.
Oh well… It’s just kindling for tomorrow night I guess. 😛
RIP CentOS… Long Live AlmaLinux!
I got all of my gameservers up and running under AlmaLinux! Tonight was CentOS 7’s final night of usage. Now the future of my servers is much more secure, literally.
I think I’ll celebrate by doing some animating tomorrow. 😛
Mummy Killed Him With A Rolling Pin
Another weekend has come and gone. I made sure to enjoy some good food, played a few games and stayed warm on these cold winter mornings. Got a bit more animation done on the current project. I just need to finish one more SFM file and I’ll be able to compile a video! Yes! A video that no one will see until autumn hits.
Still makes for a creepy shot.
