It’s been an exhausting week. I’ve prepped another yogurt parfait for tomorrow (strawberries n creme). I’m up later than I should be, but I’ve been working on more SFM stuff. I even managed to render a couple cutscenes! If I have time tomorrow I’ll jump back into it, lately my time has been extremely limited.
Feel free to post some keyboard words. It’ll give me something to wake up to.
I’ve been having a hankering for chai pudding lately. I’ve searched the internet but haven’t found many results. Instead of making a dessert though I opted to make a yogurt cup with chai spices instead. I took oatmeal, vanilla greek yogurt, milk, chia seeds, fresh ginger, cloves, cinnamon, nutmeg, brown sugar, and maple syrup to make something like a maple chai. For the crunch topper I have chocolate granola with dried red berries. I’ve already had a little taste, and I’m already looking forward to lunch breakfast tomorrow!
I pretty much lived in the kitchen today after coming home from work… There were plenty of dishes to do, leftovers to be eaten, and dinner to be made. I made a balsamic vinaigrette to top over some greens, tomatoes, feta and walnuts. The feta doesn’t stop at the salad either…
I made this recipe for feta cheese stuffed chicken breasts and they turned out excellent. I used smoked sundried tomatoes for another element of flavor, if you’ve never had smoked sundried tomatoes it’s basically tomato bacon. I oven roasted some red potatoes with garlic and Italian herbs. I think I’ll have to remember the chicken recipe, it’s really good!
Anyone else wanna share some food stuffs?
I sat down today and put some time aside to fix my Skyrim on the new laptop. My new ROG has a 144hz G Sync display, and Skyrim doesn’t play nice with high frame or refresh rates. I followed this guide and it did the trick. The local wildlife no longer has seizures around me, and I no longer randomly swim in midair.
I took a little time aside to play a bit of the Resident Evil 2 remake. I’m almost an hour and a half in but I’m really liking it, and I’ve already got a ton of achievements. Doing my first playthrough as Leon Kennedy. My graphics card is running balls out on this game, and the framerate continues to still be amazing. These last few Capcom games I’ve played have been really good ports. They’ve definitely come a long way since the DMC3 port that I can almost forgive them for now. I also found there are quite a few mods on the nexus that I might have to install, so far I’m running vanilla. Can anyone recommend me some mods? I’m already planning to install the one that increases the zombie framerate above 30. I think I might also try The Witcher mods.
Right… this is a thing.
As RPS report, the game’s latest update has introduced an odd new feature for some players, where every time a Sim uses the toilet there’s…fire in it. It’s there if you pee standing up and it’s there, more dangerously, if you pee sitting down.
I don’t own any Sims game, but found it to be worth sharing.
Went into Skyrim today for project reasons. I installed a greenscreen and I need it for an upcoming video project. On my short trek into Whiterun I was reunited with the courier.
I was actually thrown off my guard a bit. I should be reminded everyday given his mug adorns one of my many random banners. But something about him changing his outfit was a small surprise. Given with what he had the last time I saw him.
Not that it matters… we all know Jarl Balgruuf has all the swag.
I have to say it has been a pretty productive weekend. I finally gained access to the new email server, and I added a few new website features to the main Slacker Site. I’ve also made a few tweaks here, such as removing the text over the banner… on mobile it looked weird, and overall it looked too repetitive. Instead enjoy my unobstructed misadventures.
I’ve packed a helping of breakfast rice (sounds weird but who cares) for tomorrow along with some herbal tea. After three days of being antisocial I can return to listening to asshats yell at us for having to wear masks, make fun of us for wearing them, and the increase of racial dialogue. Ever since COVID broke out I’ve been having to listen to my not as pale co-workers get yelled at by customers for their country mass producing this virus… even though not a fucking one of them is of Chinese descent. Then there’s also one of my co-workers pointing at a crying child and in a sarcastic tone telling me “he’s probably sick with the covid…” all because the kid was Chinese looking enough to merit a poor attempt at humor. If anything the poor kid was showing as much enthusiasm for being there as I mentally was.
Another thing I’ve had to think about lately is my daily attire. We can pretty much wear anything to work, and from time to time I like to wear some of my Oriental or Asian wear to work among the gaming T-Shirts and other stuff I have at my disposal, and with the amount of toxicity going on lately I’ve had to mentally walk down the alleyway of worst case scenarios for the days I decide to wear them. Never thought I would live in a day and age where I’d have to ponder these thoughts… then again I never thought toilet paper would be the first thing to go during an apocalypse.
I slept in a bit too long this morning, and I was at that halfway point between breakfast and lunch. I was in a bit of a Chinese themed mood and opted to make some bacon and egg fried rice. Unfortunately I didn’t have any peas or spring onion, but I did chop and fry some yellow onion in the bacon along with the egg. I used brown Jasmine rice, but you can use any kind that you want. I have quite a bit leftover for tomorrow and a couple work trips methinks.
