The Stochastic Game

Ramblings of General Geekery

It’s 2020 and macOS/Linux still utterly suck at mounting network drives in a simple and reliable way. Windows has been kicking their ass on that front for DECADES, it’s ridiculous.


I can definitely tell that half the people without kids are super bored being stuck at home because half of my players are, like, doing research and preparing things ahead of tonight’s (online) game! What the hell?


Colouring! Just winging it like a noob. Maybe I should read a book or two on the subject.


One day I’ll draw a character for which I’m happy with the proportions and pose. Today is not that day. But hey I’ll get there eventually 🤞🏽


I guess this week was as good a time as any to introduce the kids to Pandemic… every outbreak was accompanied by them yelling “they’re not washing their hands in !”


I baked some apple pies with one of the kids, while explaining to him a few things about the mathematics of circles, and the weirdness of North American date formats. That’s a good Pi day!


The wife just came back from weekly groceries and reported that some items like toilet paper were limited to one per person. Interestingly, they seemed out of flour and sugar: it looks like people are taking Pi-day seriously this year!
