I've really been enjoying Arc Raiders. I think this might be my first "extraction shooter" and so far, I'm enjoying how it's not 100 people trying to kill me immediately ... often times it's a couple "Don't Shoot" strangers helping each other out.

I was curious about “have you seen the price of RAM” and looked up my last RAM purchase. In June 2024 (~1.5 years ago) I paid $104.99 for 32GB of DDR5. Today, it’s $379.99. Yikes. And I bought two of these things for a total of 64GB.
6/2024: $209.98
12/2025: $759.98
WTF, that’s crazy.

Solid remake of a classic in the MGS series. The game definitely suffers from some frame pacing issues on PC (even on a 5090/7800X3D). The full control of the camera made some parts of the game too easy compared to its original fixed camera setup on PS2 (and the HD remasters). Worth a play for fans.

Japan photo. This was from Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine, which was very crowded, but I happened to turn around to a brief moment of zen and snapped this photo.

Looking at video game listings on OfferUp is a casual pastime of mine. This listing photo for an Xbox Series S … unhinged.
Just a few observations
- why a fork on the carpet
- why brown splatter on the Xbox
- why frozen entree packaging on the carpet

I just got back from spending a week in Kyoto, Japan, and actually took some photos with a real camera that I’ll try to post on here in the coming days.

Quick jaunt out to wine country today to pick up a wine club delivery before we got charged to have it shipped to our house. The vines were showing off their autumnal looks. 🍂

Today I’m watching (mainly listening, but it’s playing on an iPad at my desk) a Daft Punk concert that occurred in Fortnite … honestly it’s pretty cool.

Watching a live recording of Daft Punk Alive 2007 today. The lack of cellphones in the audience is making me want to go back. There are a few people holding up point-and-shoot cameras, but nothing like the sea of rectangular lights above crowds these days.

In Astoria, looked out the window yesterday evening and the Portland Spirit was headed out to the Pacific. No idea it traveled that far!

Okay, a milestone birthday approaches. So tempted. I mean, might as well do it when the GWP is available, since it’s specially designed to integrate into the set. 💸
