A personal blog about whatever comes to mind
It’s been a while since the last devlog, and the reason for that is… that I have done mostly nothing since then. Issues in the so-called “real life” started piling up and I was/am dealing with some stuff that leaves me with almost no energy after work. Hopefully, everything should be sorted in the next…
My first contact with Maximum The Hormone was 10 years ago, give or take, with this song, which seems like a happy-fun thing until it changes. That kind of style change midsong — even if a bit truncated, as in this case — was new to me, and it was pretty cool. After that, I…
Maybe a bit late, thematically speaking, but this is one of my favorite songs ever. God Is An Astronaut was the first instrumental band I listened to and thought “huh, maybe we don’t need guitars with distortion all the time to make things interesting” (I was really into Joe Satriani at the time) and, for…
That’s literally it: I have a jacket that I got I don’t know when and don’t remember from whom, but it has a Discman pocket. I think I never showed it to anyone, so here it is. The jacket is obviously old, I think I got it in the 2000s, but can’t remember exactly when,…
When I was young, we had a PC at home with Windows 95 that had an almost 1-minute startup time. Deciding to have some fun, I changed the Brian Eno’s original startup sound to this: It lasted the exact amount of time it took for Windows to start responding to human input. My parents loved…
Forgot to post this in December, something I usually do on socials, so here it is. I’m a Counting Crows enjoyer. There’s something kinda different in the way they make music compared to similar bands from that time. I have a penchant to enjoy art depicting melancholy, and all of their songs sound kinda melancholic…
As some people say, this is such a weird song from R.E.M. I’m not their biggest fan, but I’ve been known to enjoy their music from time to time. This one, though, really is catchy and unlike the rest because it really is so happy, and every time it plays (it’s always on the playlist…
Please, stop calling these things “AI” What the media currently calls “AI” is actually a far cry from the sci-fi concept we associate with the word. Although artificial, ChatGPT et al are not intelligent, and treating this kind of technology as if it has thoughts and understands meaning, and other abstract concepts only overestimates what…
I’ve been playing it on and off for a bit over 1 year now, and it kinda got me by surprise. I ignored it at first because, I mean, a tower defense that’s also a gacha? People raved about the game, but I was like “meh”. Tower defense was never really my jam, and my…
I mean, beyond the name, where it’s called “Ovomaltine”, which apparently is how the whole world calls it except English-speaking countries? Well, anyway, when it was introduced in the country, there were some issues with the production line and the product didn’t turn powdery enough, becoming flaky and crispy when mixed in milk, creating a…
