    It seems googly eyes make everything better. Some time ago, I attached a pair to my 3-d printer, and then due to a lack of projects, forgot all about it. Started a new project yesterday, and was pleasantly surprised to see the printer staring back at me in the camera. Gives me a chuckle each…

    Been suffering quite a bit of slow activity recently, and missing my own schedule for postings. Given that I have tried to make this into a daily habit, it causes me a bit of stress each day that I end up missing. However, life and work seem to be troublesome at times. Most of my…

    I have been pondering the use of content ratings for gaming sessions recently, a system which I have informally used to define the “adultness” of whatever game I run or participate in. As a Dad, introducing my kids to the game, it is important to me, and serves as a decent means of communicating to…

    This coming weekend is the finale of the Game of Thrones series. We have been devoted fans since the original episode, and have dutifully followed the story every week it has aired. And I have to say I am rather ready for it to be over. I have not read the books, though the wife…
