Today was an amazing day in a row of amazing days I had recently.
My back pain is gone thanks to daily walks. I have the energy to do things again. I'll keep it up, I'm on a good path.
I'm happy. I'll sleep comfortably now. Good night. 🦊💤

I still use Windows Movie Maker in 2025 to create stuff for YouTube. For audio uploads.
This is the one software I haven't found an adequate Linux replacement/counterpart for yet.
If anybody has suggestions let me know. WMM is one of the main reasons I still cling onto my old Win 7 laptop.

Super Mario World has an extremely eclectic art style whereby many enemies are drawn in completely different ways. Development files reveal Mario went through many stylistic changes; it is possible that all the enemies were made to fit Mario, but at different points in time.

Does anyone remember Furcadia.. and does anyone specifically remember when they started adding non-mammal species & peeps got mad & started the dubious slogan "keep the fur in Furlandia" as a way to express their hostility to this threat to their wolf and cat utopia.
I think about that sometimes.

The reason I never got into Super Mario Maker are the physics for the retro styles. 🦊
The physics are all wrong for SMB1, SMB3 and World. That bothers me a lot.
They all use NSMB physics. The shadows behind all objects bother me too. It isn't accurate to the real games.

New Valve hardware finally announced and I think it looks amazing. The new headset feels like it could possibly replace the Quest 3 - more powerful and no Facebook account needed. The GabeCube is just a gorgeous little box that seems reasonably powered.

My back is completely pain free thanks to physio therapy and the daily walks.
If I can keep this up I'll be a real person again. One who can actually do things. 🦊
And as soon as I feel better my excitement to work on projects comes back again. Please let me keep this up. This is so good.

Having a day with not much to do I think I want to dabble in some Kraftwerk stuff again.
I spent months cherry picking the highest quality concert recordings of the band. I could make a playlist of them.
I have excellent hearing and a pretty good judgement of what makes a bootleg recording "good".

If Rare Replay released on Nintendo Switch 2 it would make me consider buying the console. But it probably won't happen.
I mean, I can emulate them anytime, but I prefer buying official releases of games I like when given the option. 🦊🎮

It probably doesn't make much of a difference, but I won't be buying anything Harry Potter related ever again. Not in this lifetime.
I used to like those books as a kid. But J.K. Rowling's anti trans hate campaign makes me feel repulsed.
I can't find joy in something made by an awful person.

Another couple of photos of this all so incredible phasmid! 🌿
They live in the dense montane forests of South and Central America where they ONLY feed on orchids, making them even rarer to see in the forest! 🌸

Videogames take too long to make nowadays. It'd be nice if developers could go back to smaller scale games again.
"Each game needs to be bigger than the previous one" seems like a poorly thought out idea, especially with the open world design trends. At some point it'll just stagnate or fall apart.

Free as a bird 🪶
A common sight late October / early November in the Saarland region of Germany. They fly Southwards for the winter months and return in spring when the weather turns mild again.
I thought they're wild geese, but no, they're cranes (Kraniche in German). Geese make different noises.

Something that greatly impresses me about birds of prey is their ability to "hover in place the air" to observe their surroundings.
When they spot prey they swipe down to grab it. Some species are even able to see near ultraviolet light. They can spot the urine trails of small rodents to find them.
