Hello! I am Joel, I am just a guy who likes tech, FOSS and many other things. I was born in Mexico, where I still live. I am a hobby collector, fake fan of many things, foss enthusiast, videogame enjoyer, and a mechatronics engineer, working as a system admin for some company somewhere.

Probably not. I bought one anyway. Figured I’d write some of my memories surrounding it growing up, as well as how I set-up my own. Some memories The Nintendo 3DS was one of those consoles that I mostly admired from a distance. There are...
June is over! Did you know this month was my birthday? Yeah it’s kinda crazy, a lot has changed, I am twenty six now yet more than half the movies I watched were Direct-to-DVD 50 minute films made to sell action figures! More things...
I usually take pictures to remember what happens during the week. This was not the case for this one, so the notes themselves may not be as long as some of you may expect! Still, a lot of things happened. This second paragraph is being...
I have no idea what I’m going to say here and I don’t want to sound like I’m out of touch (but I really am out of touch so forgive me). So there’s this girl I invited to watch a movie, and I do kind of like her, and I do know that my...
I realized I didn’t provide a cycling update on my previous weeknotes, so I decided to write some more about my misadventures so far. I am yet to buy fenders and a rack, so I am yet to try commuting to work properly. Even so, I continue...
It’s weird when this happens but some months are just full of things that feel like tasks rather than something I wanted to do. All of June has been full of nothing but talking about things that happened, physical objects, events, notes,...
The eight book of The Expanse by James S.A. Corey. Spoilers ahead. I’ve recently realized that I kind of spend too much time summarizing things without spoilers, but I’ll just share the summary from the website and then share my thoughts...
This week was wild, one of the most hectic days at work, watching the World Cup at church, getting some late birthday presents for myself, taking pictures, maybe a date? I don’t know what’s going onnn. Alas, here’s some notes on it all,...
I love Metroid. While I was aware of emulation from a young age, thanks to Ocarina of Time and Mario Kart 64, I never quite understood that there’s more emulators out there besides the old Project 64 until an older friend showed me his...
Back when I purchased my Nintendo Switch in 2023, there were only a few titles I cared about trying on it. Among the first games I purchased at the time was Hades, released in 2020, developed by Supergiant Games. Hades had already made a...
Hey hey! Good news, this was my birthday week! And it has been pretty awesome. The World Cup started, and as much as I hate everything behind the politics and the greediness of FIFA. Us Mexicans and many other people choose to focus on...
I thought it would be fun to list every single physical game I own, and try to justify my purchasing desitions. Honestly though, it will be a bit painful too. It will be a paragraph per game, so it should not be that long. I will also...
I am one of those who prefers to get something done in the span of a day or else whatever I publish will need way more work on my part, to make sure the tone stays consistent and the flow of what I write makes sense. I actually write...
This week went by in a flash, I don’t even know what to put on my weeknotes here. I was just playing Metroid Prime Remastered. Okay I remembered a few more things I guess, here we go! 🧳 My parents went on a trip for medical reasons...
Today I used my bike as a tool and not just for excercise or hobby! My mom wanted me to go with her to some place, and even though she would just take me with her on the car, I decided to simply go ahead and take my bike to meet her...
