The highlight of my day is coming home from work and wandering through each room of the house, checking to see if my family members have any new dialogue options.

It's less than a week away until I present work from my PhD at the BU Research Café event on Tuesday the 6th May, from 18:30 to 20:00. My project explores how video games bring back memories from the past, and what makes them feel nostalgic?

Apart from the fact that I'm possibly annoying colleagues with the VERY clicky switches, I'm loving this keyboard. Brown Cherry switches, or similar, to be installed soon.

Neat! I shared a few notes with @thenewyorktimes.bsky.social about 20 years of World Of Warcraft, through the lens of nostalgia. My (brief) notes are at the conclusion of the article: www.nytimes.com/2024/11/17/a...
20 Years of Orcs, Guilds and Memes in World of Warcraft
The online role-playing game is more than just a game. It changed how we talk, love, grieve, spend money and hang out.
