An Old School Blog in a New School Interworld
Its the third week of Blaugust. I think. I have not really been keeping track honestly, I don t really care about theme weeks this year. I got a new car… for work. Its not, my car, but its my car to use. Its nothing fancy but it has some fancy stuff I have never really used before like lane assist and Android Auto. Too bad the bass sucks on the stereo. My music sounds so weak ass. Its not the EQ…
So it seems both of the major mini items companies have put out similar record player style minis essentially at the same time. Each has pluses and minuses, based on what I have read. I only have the Mini Brands one here, though I might consider the Miniverse one as well. Based on my research though, the Mini Brands one has a wider selection of mini records available, the records are slightly…
File under, lines I forgot existed. For a brief bit, Transformers had a line called Transformers Red, they were basically, action figure versions of characters. Without an alt mode, this allowed them to be more accurate to the cartoons. They looked alright, especially for some of the designs like Prime Knockout that don t translate super well to actually transforming toys. But I like Transformers…
Back in the earlier days of the Raspberry Pi, there was a project going around called PiGrrl. It s of course, a play on the name Game Boy . It s essentially just a Raspberry Pi in a GameBoy like housing. I built one back in 2021. I don t think I ever really posted about it because beyond building it, I never really used it much. If anything this is a bit of a discouragement to anyone else looking…
Welcome to Blaugust week 2, which conveniently just lands on these Saturday Weekly things. This one is much more akin to normal activities for these posts. I ve pretty much recovered from last week s illness issues, the worst part of all that is not feeling like, sick sick, but still feeling lethargic and tired. Because then it s all just, being super aware of everything you re not doing. Other…
I was almost tempted to watch an episode of the show attached to this line before writing but decided I didn t care that much about the lore here. I barely watch Transformers cartoons and I have a ton of those. From my brief bit of research, Armorsaurs is a Disney+ show based on a Korean show called Armor Saurs, with a space. Its a sort of, Korean Sentai show, Sentai being shows like, Power…
I am not sure where I first came across this set of transforming gun toys, I may have even just came across it randomly browsing Amazon. I do know I was kind of sold on the idea in general, but really sold on it by this absurd as fuck image from Amazon. Seriously, what the fuck. Like a lot of goofy shit like this, I put it on a list so I would remember to occasionally look at it and never buy it.…
Welcome to Blaugust edition. I m not doing a welcome post, I ve already done that at least once or twice or maybe thrice now, the basic premise is the same. Something something blog technically from like 1999 on Geocities, something something Ramen Junkie all over the web, something something I supposedly write rambling reviews when I am not kind of irritated and a little bummed out over…
These are starting to get long, its almost like I should just blog smaller posts more. I have not been following it but I caught the end of the World Cup last weekend while at my parent s house for a visit. I don t understand fútbol at all. I mean I do, I get the gist, but like, they added 20 minutes because no one had scored? Then randomly added another 5 minutes? Maybe because the refs kept…
There are a couple of events going on in LEGO Fortnite at the moment for some neat builds. One new, one returning. The Thing from Beneath Event The returning one is The Thing from Beneath, a Ninjago based quest that will earn an Airship blueprint. It starts at the Airship dock with Captain Flintlocke Instead of commenting the Thing may return, he tells you it has, and offers to trade some special…
