Interesting how my “Technology” section on Google News is mostly games, and Apple news. I wonder if there are forces at play here (of course there are!).

Just realised that, ever since we started micro-managing our time in September 2021, I have worked over 40 hours every week consistently.
I have moved this one out of GitHub. With this move, I now do not have any website running on that service. It served me well for years, but now it is time to move on. It will remain my go to for git
repositories, but nothing else.
For as much as I hate doing this, I believe—unless I find a way further down the line to bring in the old entries—this is a fresh start here. Why? Because the way I was crafting these little notes would not scale. At certain point I used Hugo, then wiped it by mistake (because I do idiotic things sometimes), and then I concocted this Frankenstein of a Bash script. The end result is a file that doesn’t allow for easy editing, nor it is portable. So, here we are.
This time I am starting over—again—with Hugo. Everything in life is ephemeral, and this is no different.
Such beautiful knives! I am in love. Maybe a year’s end gift? ;-)
I have never been good at writing. Short babbles? Yes. Writing, no so much. I think—and this is just me thinking, while avoiding folding the mountain of clothes waiting for me in the living room—it is time to put collantes.us to rest.
Regarding to this, I gave all my items (gems, legendaries, crafting pieces, etc., including everything all my toons were wearing) to my nephew, and deleted the game. A game that severely penalises you for dying—as in going to zero from half level for three deaths—is not worth playing. I had other complaints, but that’s the one who got me fed up first. Unsubscribed from the subreddit as well. Ta-ta!
I think I have finally migrated my work wiki to Obsidian. After many tries, I have left my trusted Typora (which I still use, just not to keep my wiki) behind and embraced Obsidian. Now I only use two tools for note taking, knowledge repository, and outlining: Obsidian, and Logseq.
Back to this, I also have a more diverse theme in mind. Like this:
Which of those themes do you prefer?
“Nobody should ever attempt to take the chocolate out of Willy Wonka! Ever!” before adding “For me, it is sacrosanct. It’s our history, it’s our cultural heritage. I do not believe in censorship in that way.” — Steven Spielberg
I believe there are certain things (and I siding with Spielberg) that we must leave, as a semi-permanent reminder of past stupidities, cruelties, etc. We can change who we are, but must never forget who we were.
I almost made the mistake to get knee deep into “Path of Exile”. It would have been something to regret. Not really the game I would recommend for someone with OCD.
Referring to a previous entry, this is what I have, so far:
Still open to suggestions!
I am creating all toons for all classes upon the arrival of Diablo IV. They will be Barbarian (male), Sorceress (female), Druid (male), Rogue (female), and Necromancer (female). I am going with a Japanese theme on names. Based on that, which names would you recommend? Please let me know.
Happy birthday, Claud! 🎂🥳 May you celebrate many, many, many-many more in good health and happiness! ❤️🌹
After eating too many dishes with sticky rice yesterday, and feeling guilty about it, I decided to have a ham and cheese sandwich on black German bread, and a glass of naturally sweetened pineapple juice, as my only meal today.
