Evening falls. Listening to some great tunes before calling it a day.

Playing now: Clannad -- Mystery Game.

Lilith beckons me.

And I will answer her call.

And I will be her undoing.


It was a beautiful day in the today. On our way back earlier today, from a long weekend at our summer house.

The past few weeks have been stressful, so I’m glad to be back to our summer house in the for a few days.

This is where I can unwind.

I need to vent a bit: Elon Musk is a fuckwit and a despicable person

There’s more, but I can’t be arsed now.

Experimenting with .

This was a simple prompt, inspired by the legendary games, without referencing Thief games, or stealth games in general. I can only imagine what can be generated with more advanced and nuanced prompting.

I'm well impressed!

Bought a subscription to ChatGPT Plus so that I could try out .

ChatGPT is already impressive. I'm keen to try out GPT-4.

Well, this is bullshit. DPReview.com gets shut down by Amazon. This is a huge blow to the community.

Religion poisons everything. (Hitchens)

I’ve been watching Traveling Robert’s YouTube videos for a few years now, and would like to recommend his channel to all who enjoy relaxing travel videos.

Well filmed and produced, with original music by Robert Morales himself.

Robert travels with his RV mostly in the US. I’ve really enjoyed armchair travelling with him across the US and occasionally elsewhere.

Check it out!
(I’m not affiliated in any way. I just enjoy his videos.)

I asked to describe social media in the style and tone of Marvin, the paranoid android from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

It nailed it.

I only recently discovered the and have been immersing myself in their world for a few weeks now.

I'm pretty much running out of superlatives at this point. I can't remember when I enjoyed a game (games) this much!

I'm playing nonlethally (not killing NPCs) and trying not to be seen or get discovered, like in the brilliant Thief games back in the day.

And as a bonus, Stephen Russell, who voiced Garrett in Thief, voices Corvo Attano in Dishonored 2. 😎

No one does work like this any more - classic Tom & Jerry from Fred Quimby, Gene Leitch, and Chuck Jones. Each man left his own indelible mark on the series over the years. They were the best of T&J.

I don’t think I’ve ever had a good, frozen pizza. Or even a decent one, really.

I used to be a big fan of the Thief games (Thief: The Dark Project, Thief II: The Metal Age, etc). I still remember them fondly and occasionally play Fan Missions.

Recently, the Epic Store had Arkane Studios' "Dishonored" as a freebie. I remember many Thief fans regarded it very highly, but somehow I never got to try it.

Now I did, and it's an excellent game! A natural home for a taffer. Had a blast stealthing my way through it!

It was delicious, even if I say so myself! Elk casserole roughly in the style of Beef Bourguignon.

Roughly.
