and tagged it with Nintendo Switch The Plucky Squire Video games I started playing The Plucky Squire yesterday. I got interested in it from the Fully Ramblomatic review of it but never looked into whether I could play it on the Switch or not. Fast-forward to last Friday when I dropped Iris and a friend of at the movie theater. I went into the library to have a quick browse of their Switch games and found this on the shelf.
On Sunday I got an hour to myself, waiting while Iris had her dance class, so I brought the Switch and gave this game a go. So far I really like it. I just managed to get back into the book before I needed to put the game away. Maybe I should get some playing in tonight, instead of sitting here, staring at my computer screen…

and tagged it with Home Assistant Smart Home When I connect my phone to the charger, if it’s after 22:30 and I am at home, all lights turns off. This post on the Home Assistant forum was really helpful.
Now I’ll need to add Home Assistant to Linn’s phone as well and at her to the mix.

and tagged it with Home Assistant Smart Home Every now and then I try to set something up in Home Assistant but every time I do it feels so clunky. Still, I want to wrap my head around it and get it working because I really like the idea of it.
If I’ve managed to get things working the way I want, when I connect my phone to the charger tonight, all my lights will turn off. Fingers crossed!

There are plenty of things that can be improved by LLM’s and similar technology. It has been done plenty of times prior to the current A.I. bubble. But this kind of slop, posing as answers, needs to disappear. What is the point of this, other than virtue signaling that Google is an ”A.I. First Company”, aka drinkers of the Kool-Aid?
My query to Google was what word count I should equate to a page of text. The answer claims that it depends on a lot of factors and gives a rough estimate of 250-500 words. That is probably reasonable but it then goes of to claim that the bigger my line-spacing, the more words I can fit on a page. It’s just so hilariously dumb. Given how obvious it is that at least parts of this answer is wrong, I had to look further in the actual search-results. No time was saved for me, no value was created, nothing was gained.
This also ties back nicely to this.

and tagged it with Books Neal Stephenson Reading Termination Shock I took a break from King after ”The Langoliers” and instead dove into Neal Stephenson’s ”Termination Shock” and it grabbed me instantly. What a thrill ride thus far!

and tagged it with Books Four Past Midnight Reading Stephen King The Langoliers I finished the audiobook of Stephen King’s ”The Langoliers” from Four Past Midnight the other day. I really liked it!
I remember watching the tv movie (tv show?) of this story in class back in high school but I remembered very few things about it. I remembered the main premise, Dinah, and how terrible the langoliers looked, but apart from that I didn’t remember any of the other characters or the plot.
It’s a fun premise and engaging characters. The audiobook is read by Willem Dafoe who’s clearly having a lot of fun.
