Taught myself AppleSoft BASIC when I was 12 on an Apple IIe. Been writing code for fun and profit ever since.
Playing Elite: Dangerous in VR mode with my Meta Quest 3 is awesome! Feels like actually sitting in the seat of the spaceship. I also love how the game has a 1:1 Milky Way galaxy so we have billions of stars that we'll never explore. I'm currently finding new worlds and stars and putting my name on them that will stay in the game forever as "first discovered by".
Trying to figure out how to use AI tools to build some sort of application I can sell to businesses to have a monthly income. But realized I'll need to set up AI powered support email and help line too. It seems like easy money but there's always a catch....
I just finished Zelda echoes of wisdom! I didn't finish all the side quests as I was just ready to finish and move on to the next bunch of games I have yet to finish!
Whenever my phone seems slow on the Wi-Fi I just switch to the opposite ssid I'm currently connected to 2.4 ghz vs 5 ghz. Doesn't matter which one, the act of switching seems to speed up my connection to my router. Why? Is it because I have waaaaay to many clients (31 with 2 more on Asus AI mesh nodes) and my phone is getting pushed down some preferred client list? Asus RT-AX3000 is my router.
Is there a way to see what new movies have made it to all the streaming services? I haven't been to the theater since COVID and have missed so many movies.
I had my first conversation on my Lilygo t-deck plus today. Nice to know it will work in an emergency for sending messages if the cell towers go down.

Found this music stream to help me focus on work today. It worked really well!
VibeBrew SNES Game with ChatGPT
I'm having a great time using up my free tokens with ChatGPT creating a SNES game. I call it VibeBrew game development. It wanted to treat it like a true indie game development team would so we're doing a dev log/journal and breaking the project info phases. So far I've installed the toolchain with PVSnesLib, MSYS2.UCRT64, VS Code, and Github Actions for the build. Pretty cool so far and I like having help on every step since I've never created a console game but always wanted to. The idea is to have my...
I'm having fun using chatgpt to create my VibeBrew SNES game. I keep running out of tokens in the free version making me wait which might be good so I don't get sucked in for hours. I also don't want to give them a dime for anything so if the free version doesn't work I'm not using it.
Saw Disclosure Day yesterday. I loved it. What did y'all think?

I sometimes look up at the night sky and wish the same thing would happen to me like in the movie Phenomenon with John Travolta.
I used Google Gemini to create a scientific white paper for the discussion I was having about faster than light travel. Take a look and tell me what you think. Do you also wish we had warp drive to explore the stars?

Look me up when you get there

In case you don't feel old yet or don't feel the unstoppable march of time, here's some of the lyrics from the song Older by They Might be Giants.
You're older than you've ever been.
And now you're even older.
And now you're even older.
And now you're even older.
You're older than you've ever been.
And now you're even older.
And now you're older still.
What's everyone think about the new all electric Ferrari Luce?
I'm mad they didn't make it look like a normal Ferrari and more like a Nissan Leaf. They could have easily kept their own design language in the EV and wouldn't hurt the total range that much.
Is it time to go all in for #Meshtastic? I'm thinking of setting up a node at my house to help out a bit. Send messages without a carrier like T-Mobile or AT&T. Just node to node to the recipient. Decentralized and free sounds good to me! #AccidentalRhyme

Tomorrow, May 25, I fully expect this place to blow up with Geek Pride Day and Towel Day references and well wishes. I will be wearing my towel with 42 stamped on it all day because I'm a hoopty frood that really knows where my towel is!
Are you excited to watch the SpaceX Starship test flight 12 today? I sure am. Guaranteed excitement! They intentionally removed one of the heat shield tiles to see how it performs. So note that it might blow up but that's okay.

The twelfth flight test of Starship is preparing to launch Thursday, May 21. The 90-minute launch window will open at 5:30 p.m. CT.
