It wasn’t until only several years ago that I learned about Tove Jansson’s Moomin stories. Since then, they’ve become some of my favorite little characters. You can find full episodes of the old anime on YouTube and snuffkin is easily my favorite of the bunch. I want his hat for myself.

Worked with some teachers in a school. Occasionally we’d forget something dumb at our desk like our attendance notebook or a stack of handouts for the students. In most cases there was usually someone from our group sitting around at our office space, doing a bit of prep work. We all used iPads in our lessons, so one day I used a combination of Siri Shortcuts with IFTTT, a smart plug and a cheap little lamp to create a quick little alert system that would inform a peer at the desk if something was left behind. The light would click on, and when someone noticed, they’d check the group chat to see who sent it and what was needed.

I can imagine some scenarios where 20m feels like a long time, but it goes by really quickly if you’re doing something. I set mine to update then took a shower. I honestly expected it to take more than an hour, but the 20m flew by and the computer was ready to go before I was.

I’m sure a five minute wait playing RE4 on your phone will also leave you hunting for a charger at your next destination as well. As cool as it would be to play big games, my phone is just too important for everything else.

The Mrs. is a professional graphic designer. Of course Adobe Illustrator is what she uses, but she recommends either Affinity Designer or Canva. I also see her using Procreate on iPad with an Apple Pencil a lot.

Edit: she’s definitely recommending Canva. It’s got a lot of templates specifically catered towards social media, and is easy to learn.

Now that you mention it, I have an apple leather case from the 12 era on right now and the patina pattern is absolutely horrendous. I might need to put some oil over it or something.

I don’t disagree, but who needs an official controller from Apple when you can just use one from Sony, Microsoft, or some other company that actually specializes in gaming controller hardware? I don’t know if the engineers at Apple actually play enough games to know what people like in their controllers.

Well meat farms produce a lot of methane, which is a potent greenhouse gas, so reducing any kind of demand from a ranch is probably better than nothing. That said, I thought the leather used for iPhones weren’t from animals we’d traditionally use for eating. Moleskin or something?

I actually really want a PSVR2, but it doesn’t do anything except gaming, and I have an old VR180 camera I’d like to take traveling.

I would be so happy for a stand-alone gaming VR headset that isn’t run by Facebook.

Too watch, didn’t video.

It’s not a trillion dollar company they’re looking to spend a few million dollars against, just their stance on your privacy.

Heat Initiative is launching a multi-million dollar campaign in which it presses Apple on this issue.

I can’t help but wonder which generous benefactors are providing Heat these multi-millions of dollars in order to pressure apple into compromising privacy?

Woah sorry for the late reply. I’m hooked. I’m just starting chapter 3 and I’m already wondering what it’ll be like moving to cold steel after this, or if it’s worth doing boundless trails first.

I‘ve been going through the series blind by order of release because I heard it likened too an MCU of jrpgs. I admit Sky FC was a hard push for me because nothing really happens for most of it and the combat system is really basic. The ending is pretty much what made me want to play SC, which was much more compelling.

While playing through the Liberl arc, official western releases of the Crossbell arc were made available, and I was ready.

I’m really liking the characters. I adore kea so much that I actually feel distressed if I think something bad is going to happen with her, which isn’t something I get out of many games. I’m really glad I got
into the series.

I hope I remember this when iOS 17 goes official.

JUMPIN’ JIM RIVERS!!!

Trails to Azure.

That happens to be where my in laws live. But either way, I believe there are English patches if you’re willing to hack your device.

I would have much preferred to play the vita versions, but I left my vita at the foreign in-laws’ and haven’t had a chance for a trip back there. Whenever I get it back, I think I’m going to eventually replay the Sky games there. I miss my vita. :(

I literally just wrapped up chapter 3 (what a development!) and can’t believe I have already been at it for over 50hrs already. My goal is to play them all for the first time by order of release, so the western arrival of the cross bell arc couldn’t have been timed more perfectly for me.
