Welcome, to my week notes! Can you believe that we are almost done with April already? There have been a lot of things going on lately, but hey, at the very least I keep reading on my XTEINK X4 and nudging other people to buy it too,...
Well, it’s been about a year since my last round of confessions as a FOSS enthusiast and I do have a few more things that I thought I’d share! This was in part tangentially inspired by a post by Adrian Perales on controversies around...
Welcome to another installment of “things that interested me today but aren’t enough to warrant a blogpost by themselves so I bundled them all together here”—I hope you find something that catches your eye! Again I don’t really plan to...
Ages ago at this point, I watched a YouTube video about short science fiction books! Back then I ended up reading and eventually reviewing The Undefeated by Una McCormack. That very same video is what first brought this novella to my...
This weekend was packed with quite a bit of stuff, I wonder if things will calm down a bit now that the Easter vacation period is over. 🎨 Modified my website design, just a bit! I created a new background wallpaper pattern featuring...
A game originally released in 1996, the first to ever use the term “survival horror” to refer to itself. This is was the entryway for a whole generation into a genre that has seen a resurgence in recent years, thanks to the franchise’s...
I am currently working on my review for Resident Evil, but I need to take some pictures and finish it up a little more! So far I tend to separate everything into the basics, art, gameplay, story, music and stuff; but I ended up turning...
A couple of weeks ago I acquired a tiny ereading device, the XTEINK X4. It all started with a YouTube video reviewing the device that I first shared in one of my weeknotes. A day later I saw that James had been using one already, and...
