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.

Huh, just saw there's another Syberia game coming, Syberia: The World Before. Looks like it'll have the same playstyle as Syberia 3, which I found terrible to navigate in.

Wish they'd do more like 1&2, a proper point and click adventure game. Once a series goes 3D, it usually goes to shit. :/

Graphics look awfully nice, though. But I wouldn't expect any less from the Syberia series anyway.

Damn, that was a close call. Kept messing up with the order of all those things.

Kinda struggling with the introduction of the corporations in BitNode 3.1 in Bitburner, it's very slow going and actually kind of boring. You don't even get to write scripts for it, not at the start anyway.

I guess it might be fine if it is something as an extra in other BitNodes, but BitNode 3 is very focused on corps, so I'll just have to try to wade through 3.1 and then move on to other BitNodes with more interesting mechanics.

Might take a few days before I can break BitNode 3.1 though...
