I can definitely see there's a thin layer of snow everywhere... Including on my solar panels. There's no production at the moment, heh.

I guess I'm slowly getting into Python coding again. I just have set up Spyder to try out since I actually wasn't that terribly happy with Pycharm.

Spyder is a bit more hands-on, that's for sure. But on the other hand, if you have to do some actions behind the hood to get things working it also increases understanding in my opinion.

So I loaded up an old project I had and had to mess with the environment thingy to install the right modules for the project, and it actually ran. Wheee!

Ugghhkk... that was painful. Banged my head against the edge of the digiboard. :P

We're removing the excess cabling from that thing in this room. It's ridiculous how many cables there were.. I mean, it's like they wanted to pull this throughout the whole of this school or something. We've replaced them with more sane-length ones now.

At least we're not running short on cables now. :P

I think summertime's doing me in today. I'm so tired and so slow.

Probably doesn't help either that I played a horror puzzle game until just before bedtime... :P

Got Crash Drive 2 in a recent bundle. I completely played and finished Crash Drive 3 a few months ago and that was a blast. Crash Drive 2 is... well.. it's definitely looking older than 3, and there are less features.

The core gaming is the same though, just not as great an experience as with number 3. It'll be a little bit of a grind before I 100% all the achievements. Doable, just a bit repetitive because there is less variety.

If you love stunt racing, I definitely can recommend Crash Drive 3. Don't even bother with 2 unless you happen to get it in a bundle somehow.

Neat, Fanatical got their own Stand With Ukraine Charity Bundle at https://www.fanatical.com/en/bundle/stand-with-ukraine-charity-bundle

That's a fair amount of games in there for a great price. Lots of nice small games. 100% of the proceeds go to the Red Cross in Ukraine.

It sure is a very hot day today. I've underestimated the temperature on my morning's walk and had to take off my winter coat pretty quick.

Heh, in Bitburner you can visit the arcade in a city and play 'Megabyte burner 2000'....

Which is just Bitburner inside an smaller screen. :P Yay, time to go play an idle game inside an idle game! ;)

Wow, there sure are a lot of Chinese engineers who hacked my device OS and saw me do lewd things...

They all also have non-Chinese names. :P

Decided to install Slime Rancher and play it again, since it's been quite a while that I played this game.

Of course, I forgot a lot of details and had to check up on the how and what of certain things...

...but not before I made a hybrid of a hybrid and all hell broke loose with all tarr slimes ganging up on me and trying to devour me. Yeaaaah...

Thankfully that situation's now resolved. I've got some more slimes now and sometime I should make a table with which slime to crossbreed with which for max efficiency.

And also figure out a better corral spot for those exploding slimes because they harm me everytime I have to run past them. :P

Small Bitburner update. I've beaten BitNode 4.1 and also 5.1, each by homiciding about 15 hours to get enough negative karma, and then nuke that node with a gang backing me up.

Now I've chosen BitNode 10.1 because it introduces the Sleeves technology. Basically Sleeves are clones of myself so I can do multiple things at once. That does include doing crimes to get negative karma very fast, which means I'll be able to form a gang even sooner.

So, in less-than-15-hours I might be able to form a gang, and then eventually break this BitNode as well and have some extra clones at hand for the next BitNode.

Pondering to make use of a corporation as well for near-infinite money so that I can buy all permanent upgrades for my clones before I move on.

I think I can explain in a CSS way how my glasses can optically change the position of reddish items on a monitor...

`position: relative;`
`left: -5px;`

That's it. It happens when looking sideways at my monitor.

For example, the reddit icon is a red circle with a white alien face in it. Looking at it through my glasses from a very left angle, I can see the white face jumping out of the circle on the right side.

It'll go out the other way when looking at it from a very right angle. (It'll then be `left: 5px;` instead)

It's just sometimes annoying when I'm designing stuff. :P

How to go from a stuffed nose to a waterfall overnight! 🤧

Oh joy is me. :P

I've got an autoscript running in Bitburner to automatically do a crime every 3 seconds (homicide in this case, I'm so bad...). With a bit of luck (or just a long wait) I can have -54000 (yes, minus fifty-four thousand) karma in 15 hours so that I can form a gang in BitNode 4.1 and actually start earning money.

Aaaaand.... that is actually the power of BitNode 4.1, it introduces access to automating a few things including criminal activities. And I'll have access to this in other BitNodes too if I manage to break BitNode 4.1.

Just to wait 15 hours now, heh. ;)

Fun bit of trivia.. the Rouble emoticon on Steam is worth more than its real-life counterpart and is still rising in value.

Oh wow... Those corps in Bitburner do indeed take a while to set up, fund, and expand. But once you get it going and invest heavily in advertising... ooh lala, it's basically infinite money! It's ridiculous how much influence ads have here.

But while I'm swimming in money (Scrooge McDuck would be proud), I can mop up some achievements that require a lot of funds. :) I hope I can beat this BitNode this evening, then I can move on to the next one, it's been long enough in this one.
