After much stalling on my part, the Overload Game Browser has finally migrated away from Windows over to Linux. This now makes 4 out of the 5 websites I wanted to move off the Windows box completed, leaving one last beast: the Overload Teams League.
This means I'm on the final stretch of a project that's gone on for almost two years now. It definitely feels like the light at the end of the tunnel. Now I just need to figure out what that light is.
The first thing I want to do after all this is done is give The Observatory its own website. I haven't updated anything having to do with it on this site in a long time, and the database I was using for it is massively out of date. In addition, I need to recreate the bot that was used for it so that the show runs much smoother. That will take time, however, and I'll be lucky to have it done by Season 35.
After that, who knows? I have a number of ideas on what comes after that, but haven't made any solid plans for anything yet. There's so many possibilities that I don't feel like I can even choose something until I finish up everything else I'm working on. I feel like I have an ocean of possibilities in front of me, but no clear direction to swim in. Yet!
In the meantime, a lot of other things are falling into place for me to resume a regular streaming schedule. More on that to come later, but I have a number of exciting projects in the works for the stream that I will be putting out there soon.
This is my blog where I give my thoughts and opinions on various topics and share my creative endeavors with the world. I run two personal blogs, but combine them here for ease of access.
Blogger - My oldest blog using the Blogger platform contains posts full of opinions, gaming, and code.
Tumblr - Tumblr posts are all about my creative side, containing music, videos, writings, and updates on my web creations.

In California, truck license plates are 7 characters, all numbers except for one letter in either the second or the sixth position. Whenever that letter is an X, I get nerd snipped into treating it as a multiplication problem and solving it in my head.
we should have paid more attention to the cats who, for decades, put their bodies on the line to walk on keyboards and sit on laptops and prevent us from programming

I'd also love a 6 hour layover overnight instead of taking the red eye I was going to take and be 7 hours later getting into Cleveland than I wanted, why do you ask? #airporthell
Why yes, I'd love to leave at 4:40 to get to the airport at 6:20 for an 8:20 flight that got delayed to 9:05 which is too late for my connection so now I'm on a 10:20 flight instead. Why do you ask? #airporthell
@shanselman Who at Microsoft do I have to bribe to fix ADO so that those of us on dark mode who copy/paste text from one task to another can do so without our friends on light mode seeing dark text on a dark background?
I updated the blog post with a statement from Revival. While I'm not particularly happy with Revival's decision, I understand their motives. It's just a shame that it was someone from Interplay that had to go and do this. "By games for gamers" my ass.
Damn, got another Tetris world record! This time in the arcade variant developed by Atari. 6,008,005 points, 5,386 lines, round 363. Be warned, it's nearly FIVE HOURS. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2131759212
