ohai, I moved to a new state and then Darktide put out a patch and made it fun again so I kind of forgot about the fediverse.

What's going on, did I miss anything in the last... few... uh... months?

Listening to Handel's Messiah while trying to figure out if I should build or buy an NVR for the new house.

Would have been nice if the early talk about BG3 involved talking about more than bear sex and genital choice.

If anyone had said, "The opening cinematic has a mind flayer spell jammer ship fighting with 3 dragons" I wouldn't have hesitated to buy it.

Instead I had to be convinced over and over that it wasn't just a sexual deviance simulator.

Fiddling with matrix bots only to find that there's no case insensitive match on simple responses (like help) but only on active commands. Ok, simple enough pull request. Write two lines of python, 6 lines of comments, 4 lines of tests.

Try to run the tests and now I'm fighting with python dev environments because python is terrible.

Thank you @Illuminatus for this quote.

It used to be that I would torpedo friendships by angrily engaging in protracted pedantic arguments. Now I seem to end friendships by angrily disengaging from protracted pedantic arguments.

So I'd call that personal growth.
