My wife is starting an art business! 🎨 A story of how you can just do things.
In November last year Jowi and I went to @ViennaComicCon on a date. We wanted to see the nerd scene of Austria in one place
We also found the "Artist Alley" where people sell their arts & crafts ✨

First order of my wife's art business kyoti.art arrived at its destination today!
It's amazing to see people be so excited about receiving their order. A whole different rush!

Just remembered my very first programming experience.
NFS: Hot Pursuit 2 stored all its car models with .ini files in a cars/ folder.
This INI files had things like acceleration rate and max speed defined per vehicle.
You could just edit them. I won every race 😤

Found mine! Behold! 🥳
My drawings and designs, inspired by Ocarina of Time.
Not sure on how old I was. 🤔
They're in two different booklets, and the item drawing style is more advanced in one of them. About 6 is my best estimate, as this would coincide with when I first got to play the game.

Also this may be yet another failed attempt, but since I've spent a lot of time recently promoting my wife's art business (btw, go buy stickers from https://kyoti.art) maybe I can also be a bit more active again on socials myself.

Anyone ever have this thing where your brain is like 3 paragraphs ahead of the words that are coming out of your mouth and then you stumble over your words like an idiot?
It's been happening /a lot/ recently. 🙃

I now officially disqualify for any sort of youth discount whatsoever in Austria. I'm afraid my age is finally catching up to me.
Nevertheless, happy 28 to me! 🥳

Is anyone else here an extremely inconsistent gamer when it comes to difficulty?
Like I really enjoy the FromSoft catalog. I will happily bash my head against Malenia and Isshin for 100+ times if need be. (fuk u malenia 🥲)
Then I play SH2:R.
Combat difficulty? ✨easy🙆♂️
Puzzle difficulty? 👹H̸A̵R̵D̴👹

For today's ramble: After a wild 3 months of ✨drama✨, I finally made it back to the gym on Wednesday
I wasn't prepared for the DOMS that would hit my lower back afterwards. Absolutely debilitating
I'm fine now, but it's very humbling seeing a bunch of kids run past you while you can barely move 😁

Why do they all still require numerous gigabytes of downloads!? Why have we given up on discs as storage medium?
