Ramblings of General Geekery

Woah, Split Fiction is sold out absolutely everywhere around Vancouver! Congrats to Hazelight Studios! And… I guess I’ll play it next week or something šŸ˜…


It’s important to help local sports teams with their fundraising. You know, for, err, community and stuff.

The classic box of Krispy Kreme doughnuts that everybody uses for fundraising around here. Don't forget to heat them up in the microwave for 11 seconds!

A couple days ago, my wife came home with this book. She had no rational explanation for this. “It just happened, and you need to accept that”

A colouring book named "Coloring Cat Farts", featuring a colourful orange cat with a little white cloud coming out of its ass.

Note that this is "Volume 16" in the Cat Farts series.

Huh… a foggy rainbow! I don’t know if I’ve seen one of those before…


Mozilla recently changed Firefox’s ToS and everyone is (rightfully) freaking out. The most telling is this change to the welcome page shown after a software update. “Unlike other companies, we don’t sell access to your data” is gone. Mozilla is an ads company now.


Some new TTRPGs use prose for making characters, but remember 25 years ago when QuestWorlds (then called HeroWars/HeroQuest) did that? You wrote a paragraph about your character, and gave scores to nouns/verbs. Such an innovative design by Robin Laws and Greg Stafford.

The HeroWars and Glorantha books from the French edition of the game, published in 2000. This was my first contact with both narrative rules and the world of Glorantha, and I absolutely did not understand either :D

I forgot to share what the February drop of our chocolate subscription looks like! For you chocolate lovers out there.


Gaaah. Today I had to debug multithreaded code! I expected my super clever coworker to figure it out but I think he had to work on something else… now my brain is tired šŸ˜
