I was just reminded that we actually have a horror movie festival in Vancouver this month? It’s the Vancouver Horror Show (VHS), and it has some interesting entries this year! (ITHAQUA, DRAG, IMPOSTERS, and more)
The Stochastic Game
Ramblings of General Geekery
I often mix up “Watership Down” and “Black Hawk Down”, and since I only know one of the two, I make wild assumptions about the other one which, frankly, would probably make it twice as good.
“Canada’s AI governance has a built-in conflict of interest”: we should really spend all that money to build generic data centres and team-up with the EU on alternative solutions to US tech.
This is lovely: a website that interactively explores the Catalogue of Ships from Homer’s The Iliad.
I’m looking into Ghost for a new website I’m working on… It’s annoying that it doesn’t support password authentication or footnotes, but a big blocker is no asset/media management to re-use images and not get duplicates. People have been asking for it for the past 7 years. Ugh.
Hahahah my wife has gone back to university for a career change, and is in a Discord server with other students from her classes. She has to ask our kids to translate some of the posts from GenZ-speak to English 🤣😅
“Bad art is better than AI art! Draw something fun!” (seen at KamCon)
My 9 video games. But ask me again another time and half of these games would be different!
KamCon last week-end isn’t just TTRPGs: there’s also a big chunk of board games, wargames, video games, cosplay, and other nerdy stuff. But this time there was also a pinball tournament! I didn’t enter, but I played the D&D pinball which is crazy, it has a branching storyline!
Before KamCon started last Friday, I went on a little hike above Kamloops with Francis, writer of “Horror in the Nunnery” (for Call of Cthulhu). We got some nice views of the town!
