#FFXIV
A meme of a man looking at an analog clock and saying "Good heavens would you look at the time". However, the man's head was replaced with Final Fantasy XIV producer and director Yoshi-P, and the hours on the clock were each replaced with the word "DDOS".

I was chatting about Disney movies with a friend and they made a typo that I further misread and I just had to make this dumb meme as a response.
An edited version of a movie poster for "The Hunchback of Notre Dame". Instead, it says "The Hatchback of Notre Dame" and Quasimodo in the poster was replaced with a hatchback car from Cars 2.

#FFXIV
A fake news article titled: 'No Way To Prevent This,' Says Only MMORPG Where This Regularly Happens. There's an image of a "Connection with the server was lost." dialog from FFXIV. It's listed as Published: December 18th, 2025. The article reads, before being cut off: When asked for comment, Square-Enix replied: "We are currently experiencing technical difficulties due to a DDoS attack. Players may experience the following issues as a result. We are looking into the way

I think it's functionally ready now, and I just need to figure out how expensive these should be and do some art.

Quite a savings though. Here, it's connecting something 600 blocks away with just two block entities. 598 fewer ticking entities. 598 fewer renderers, client-side. It's great.
An image showing two side-by-side examples of drills connected to creative motors in Minecraft with the Create mod. The example on the left uses Create mod's shafts, and the example on the right uses my new custom block. The one on the left has 600 block entities, one for each shaft. The one on the right only has 2 block entities, one for the block at the start and one for the block at the end.

I've been doing a lot of Minecraft modding lately. Create mod stuff. The server I've been playing on has been having some performance issues because there are *so many block entities*.

So I'm now working on a project that adds a (mostly) entity free replacement for shafts / gearboxes.
An image of several cogs from Create mod, connected to each other by my work-in-progress flexible shaft block. The image shows how there are colored versions that don't link together, and it also has an overlay showing how only the actual blocks that the cogs are connected to have ticking block entities.

I've found myself doing Minecraft modding of late. Create mod adjacent stuff. Recently I've been unsatisfied with Create's Stock Ticker when used for shops, so I've been working on a Cash Register block.

It still needs proper textures, but I'm very happy with the model I came up with. Very antique.
A screenshot of a Cash Register block design for modded Minecraft. The cash register is made of brass and is designed to look like old fashioned cash registers with a glass tube at the top containing price tags that can pop up as a rudimentary display. It has sixteen buttons on a slanted surface, and a drawer that opens below the rest of the machine.

After doing a bit of Occult Crescent in #FFXIV, this is all I think of every time I see the pyramid in the corner of the map.
A screenshot of the pyramid in the Final Fantasy XIV content "Occult Crescent". The pyramid has the logo for Bass Pro Shops edited onto it, based on the actual Bass Pro Shops pyramid in Memphis.

Tonight I've been specifically working on support for mods registering extra menu tabs, and the sort of work I need to do to fit more tabs into the menu UI and have it still look nice.

I like two staggered rows like this, though it only fits 21 tabs at most on the narrowest menus.
A screenshot from Stardew Valley. The game's pause menu is open, but instead of the normal 10 tabs there are 21 tabs displayed across two rows. The second row is tucked under the first row and positioned to the right by half a tab to provide a nicer visual effect.

I've also added a statistics page to the website, to show which Wondrous Tails entries players are actually doing.

I didn't get a full set of data for the first week, but I'm still pretty happy with how it's turning out. Looking forward to next Tuesday for bigger data.
A screenshot of the statistics page from the WTSync website. The screenshot has two donut charts at the top showing how the completed duties were distributed between different levels and content types. Below that is a list of every duty, ordered by how many people completed the duty that week with details on how many people had the duty in their Wondrous Tails and how many of that subset of people completed it.

I pushed a new update to my WTSync project today. WTSync is a #FinalFantasyXIV Dalamud plugin for doing Wondrous Tails together with your friends.

It took a bunch of web dev work, but now you can use it to share your info with people who don't or can't use plugins thanks to its new website.
A screenshot of the WTSync website showing the new share feature in action. The page consists of a header showing the character's initials, how many stickers and points they have, and when their Wondrous Tails journal expires. Below that is a row of filters. Below that is a filtered list of entries from their Wondrous Tails along with their completion state.

Hey #FinalFantasyXIV players, have any of you had Gambler's Lure luck this crazy before?

Five matching numbers in one set. Four of them were back to back. And somehow I got all the way to the end.

(Of course the map kicked us out right after...)
An image of a chat log from Final Fantasy XIV showing the result of a mini game called Gambler's Lure. On the first round, I got a matching number once before winning. On the second round, I got a matching number four times before winning. On the third, fourth, and fifth locks I won straight away.

Working on updating my #FFXIV Dalamud plugin for doing Wondrous Tails with friends. Why am I so amused by the invalid entry in the list?

Can't wait to try out Unknown when I reach level 4 billion 294 million 967 thousand and 295... (It's just the maximum unsigned 32-bit integer. And yet, amusement)
An image of my work-in-progress FFXIV Dalamud plugin. It shows the Wondrous Tails dialog from the game, with my custom dialog next to it that is supposed to list all the available duties shared by everyone in your party. However, it's still broken after the 7.1 update as well as Dalamud updates so the data it's showing isn't correct.

For comparison, this is what it used to look like. The colors are not nearly so intense, the font is thinner, and there aren't the cute designs for D2s and D6s.

I've also implemented settings, so individual users can customize their dice.
An example of the output of my dice rolling Discord bot featuring the old image style. The image shows the result of a roll that has two of every common type of die. The die all have single color backgrounds, and the color is very faint for each of them. Every die has its value displayed with a big, plain font.

Things I should be doing today: Working.

Things I am doing today: Making the output from my custom dice rolling bot on Discord prettier.

I'm using SVG to generate nice gradients for backgrounds. Some die, like a d6 or d2 (aka coins) have special images for each face. Others use fonts.
An example of the output of my dice rolling Discord bot. The image shows the result of a roll that has two of every common type of die. The die all have color gradient backgrounds with blurred fractal noise to make them look more interesting. Most of the dice have their value displayed with a big bold number, with a few exceptions. The six-sided dice have their values indicated with a number of dots, except instead of plain dots the dots look like paw prints. The coins (or two-sided dice to be silly about it) have an image of a fox's head on one side and an image of two fox tails on the other side.

Check your kids Halloween candy carefully. Someone tried to hide the critically acclaimed MMORPG #FinalFantasyXIV featuring an expanded free trial which you can play through the entirety of A Realm Reborn and the award-winning Heavensward, and thrilling Stormblood expansions up to level 70 for free

I've released a storm of updates for my #StardewValley mod Better Crafting, and I'm super excited to see what content pack creators do with the new features...

... it's just that I have to *document* those features first. Poo.

I also fixed a major bug though, so I'm really happy.
A screenshot of my mod, Better Crafting, with a tool-tip visible for a custom recipe added with the new data-driven recipes feature. The recipe has currency as an ingredient, which can't be done with the base game's recipe system, as well as a custom ingredient that accepts any bone item.

Work on porting my #StardewValley mods to 1.6 has begun.

Better Crafting is hitting a usable point. Still a lot to clean up and test, as well as support for new 1.6 features. But it's here. And working.

Almanac will hopefully be quick to follow, since someone is helping port that.
