Title: Celebrating a Busy and Productive Weekend Date: 11 July 2022 ---- I've had a busy and productive weekend and start to the work week, but there's still quite a bit that I want to do this week, and as I've been working on things I've been wracked by recurring sudden sharp headaches that I can't pinpoint a cause for. Wins / accomplishments (not necessarily in any particular order): - updated my Known (idno) installation [1] from 0.9.something to current (1.2.2) - fixed the text formatting (maybe?) for my old gopher posts to something that is less likely to cut off the middle of words on realistic screen widths - started cross-posting some of my recent gopher posts to the previously mentioned known feed (I'm not sure if it's really necessary, but it seems like a good use for my old, mostly-dormant for a few years known site). I do think there's a good values cross-over between gopher-paced slow web and IndieWeb. - applied for a position that would be a logical next step professionally and a nice pay raise... and made it forward to the next part of the selection process - finally gave up on trying to fix my old coffeemaker (my fixing strategy was mostly "try again tomorrow and hope it works" though honestly) and purchased a new one. It was a depressingly limited selection of non-K-cup normal pot- based coffee makers, which I guess is a sign of the times... - watched a good number of Great Performances that have been sitting on the DVR for too long - added some additional software to my home server so I don't have to have like three simultaneous SDF connections all the time - worked today almost fully on my Silverblue-based primary PC (although I did have to run Windows for like an hour: to connect to work's VPN and edit a format- sensitive Word Document I was just a little worried about trusting LibreOffice with) - placed in the top 400 for the recent event in Hatsune Miku: Colorful Stage (previous high placement had been only in the top ~2000) To Do (lol): - complete the written "interview" for the job I applied for - hope the headaches resolve themselves?? sad-lol... - figure out how to disconnect Known's Mastodon link from my old (discontinued) Mastodon server and connect it to SDF Mastodon - see if there's a way to salvage my own Known-Twitter link (not working) without applying to be a Twitter Developer (mega groan) - test to see if the Tumblr-known link still works (I skipped it today and don't feel like continuing to sh**post there until tomorrow or later) - need to keep watching DVR stuff or delete some of it... it's really low on space... like 98% full... - ask work if we have access to the RPM that our VPN vendor provides. It's not publicly available from the vendor's website - they say I need to get it from our IT office... - finish playing AI the Somnium Files: nirvanA Initiative!! I REALLY like it so far but have gotten distracted with this job application and messing around with gopher and my website lol - figure out why Lutris on Silverblue doesn't actually want to open anything (according to research maybe flatpaks can only be opened *BY* flatpak?) - consider a gemini capsule??? Although I'm still just getting rolling here on Gopher and don't want to overload... - figure out what the heck to do with my WOTV guild which seems to be dying a slow death... I am glad that I got a good amount done this weekend and start of this week, and I really hope I can continue this pace... because as I discussed in my first Gopher post, I've been kind of... listless, I guess lately.
