The Mind Of OverlordTomala

This Post Is For Nerds

I made the mistake of running updates on my Linux-Surface Pro over the weekend. When I wake it from suspend under KDE Wayland it wakes erratically. It will wake and instantly go back to sleep, it will hang when trying to bring up the password prompt, or it might not even bring it up at all and just instantly freeze upon waking. Fortunately the Xorg version of Plasma doesn’t have this problem, but now I can’t rotate the screen (first world problems, I know…). At least I can use the Xorg version for now while I casually research the problem, and balance the hundreds of other things on my to-do list that feel like multiple swords of Damocles.

Meanwhile: I started watching the Preserving Privacy lecture in Harvard’s CS50 Cybersecurity class. I’ll probably finish the assignment tomorrow night after I get off of work. So far I’ve really enjoyed the flexibility in these courses. Though I’m pretty sure the paid ones would be more time consuming, and have shorter deadlines.

Monday Evening Open Thread

Another Weekend of self care comes and goes. I started it by having a digital movie night with a friend, played a small assortment of games, and did some video editing/uploading and accidental shopping. My work clothes are in place, and now I have a little bit left of the evening to enjoy some tea, a bit of reading, and maybe a game.

Open Thread!

Breakfast Shroom

Every weekend I always make something nice for breakfast, or brunch if I sleep in. This weekend I did something completely different and did egg bakes inside of portabello mushrooms, and I really liked it.

Not really a fan of the lighting in the pic, it was cloudy when I took the photo… but the taste was great! I took this recipe and made a couple of my own changes for my own liking, like wilting and seasoning my own spinach and using a different cheese. It was the most vegetarian eggs and steak dish I ever made. One was enough to tie me over until dinner, which means breakfast is going to be real easy for the next couple of days.

An Hour a Night Keeps Boredom Out of Sight

I’ve been spending the final hour of my evening in the Forbidden West these last couple of nights. So far I’ve cleared a couple of sunken caverns, the re-breather is definitely a lot of fun! It is making me think that I should pick up Shadow of the Tomb Raider again. That had some fun underwater exploration.

Something tells me that I’ll probably be playing more of this tomorrow. 😀

It’s a New Week: Open Thread

Had a hell of a time trying to wake up, even after sleeping in. Didn’t really have it in me to do much today, other than a bit of YouTube prep and studying for my next assignment. It’s mostly been a day of pain management, brain fog and tea. Lame weekend was lame… I’ll have to make up for it when the next weekend hits.

Videos In Crab Space

Today became a resting day. I slept longer than I expected, and I feel a bit sore. However despite that I did export another video that I chipped away at for the last week (More Resonite Exploration). Since I wasn’t feeling too well we decided to make tonight a cozy YouTube watching marathon in Resonite. It’s been about a month since we last did anything in that corner of the metaverse. Might have to do some more world exploration soon!
