Game day. Wanted to try some humble bundles that I bought, as well as paying attention to game design for my course.
When Ski Lifts Go Wrong - I didn't like the parts where I control a skier instead of just building the ski lift. I wanted to just build ski lifts.
Hacknet - A game I did not expect to enjoy. Now I'm all hooked and have joined the cult. Hack places in dumbed down terminal style, and read everyone's personal lives. Silly things like point clicker. The textual details packed in this game is a work of art. This is a game that shows how much storytelling matters.
I was talking to my friend who shared my self hosted nextcloud with me about ditching yunohost, wiping my VPS and just start everything from scratch using docker to host my apps.
I'm very excited for that idea but I better do it before I have to backup too many things, like my blogs.
@freemo Guess I need to blog on qoto after all XD

Recently I want to see what options I have for "chew toy snacks" when I concentrate/thinking. Or rather, better alternatives to chew instead of pens and pencils.
So far I've come across:
- celery/apples with peanut butter
- beef jerky
- chewy gummies (but not chewing gum - can't swallow those)
Any other suggestions along the lines of concentration chew toys?
The Distribution of Users’ Computer Skills: Worse Than You Think (2016)
If you develop, or market, or support, any kind of information *or other* technology, READ THIS, NOW.
People, *even intelligent people*, are VASTLY less capable than you think they are.
This has two implications:
1. For mass-market, KEEP IT REALLY SMPLE.
2. For technical market/users: your total base will be SMALL.
