Picked up a new #book and #bookmark at the #bookstore today. Started taking my business #analytics classes this semester and could use some supplemental #reading. Do a lot of #statistics for work but never had the time to dive deeper due to the fast paced flow, moving from one data set to the next.

So we started our #adventure of #Heavensward (#HW) in #FFXIV by exploring the #architecture of #Ishguard. The Foundation absolutely looks #desolate and the lack of players makes it seem abandoned, adding to the #aesthetics. The surrounding areas feel so vast and empty, adding such a nice charm.
Three player characters stand together in a snowy mountain landscape. From left to right: a character with pink hair in scaled armor, a character with short brown hair wearing white and green archer-style clothing with a quiver, and a character in blue and black armor. Snow-covered peaks and wooden structures are visible in the background under overcast skies.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ A nighttime view of an ornate Gothic cathedral district with towering spires and elaborate architecture. A character stands in the plaza, surrounded by grand buildings with pointed arches, flying buttresses, and glowing lanterns. The starry sky creates a dramatic backdrop. The architecture features a mix of yellowish stone towers and gray-blue cathedral walls with intricate detailing. Interior shot of a dimly lit stone chamber with warm candlelight. A character in elegant blue and white robes stands before an altar or table adorned with candelabras. Behind them is a large decorative blue-tinted emblem or crest mounted on the dark wall. The room has a formal, ceremonial atmosphere with stone pillars and gothic architectural elements. A character wearing a distinctive cowboy hat and black outfit with red accents poses in a bustling city plaza during daytime. They’re dressed in western-style gear with decorative accessories including necklaces and a belt buckle. Behind them are medieval-style buildings with blue and brown tones, market stalls, and other players visible in the background.

In 2022 I started my #adventure as a #BLM in #FFXIV . Then to now, I have #rerolled countless of times, switched #realms often to play with friends, (Q, 💛) and taken countless #breaks ; even becoming a #father . During this time I have always remained in #ARR . [1/2]

Additionally #screenshots of the previous #FFXIV #gaming session that was absolutely fantastic! I took so many #ingame screenshots that I had a tough time picking only four! Enjoy!
A close-up shot from below showing a character lying on an ornately decorated ceiling with blue and gold patterns. The character named Raubahn appears distressed, with his mouth open. The dialogue box reads: “Nanamo… Nanamo… NOOOOO!!!” A dramatic scene showing two characters in conversation. On the left, a large muscular character with dark skin and hair sits slumped in what appears to be despair. On the right, a shorter character wearing dark armor with glowing blue-green accents and a distinctive horned crown stands watching. The dialogue box shows Raubahn saying: “I never doubted you. Not for a moment. But there is more to this than I yet understand.“​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ A cinematic shot showing a character with white hair wearing a blindfold or visor and white and dark blue armor, surrounded by magical sparkles and glowing light effects. Sweeping arcs of white, blue, and orange light streak across a dark blue atmospheric background, creating a mystical and dramatic scene. A cutscene showing the player character from behind, wearing dark armor with glowing blue accents and a distinctive headpiece. They face three Crystal Brave soldiers in blue coats standing in a stone building interior. The character Ilberd speaks, with dialogue reading: “This man stands accused of poisoning Her Royal Majesty Nanamo Ul Namo. And as suspected accessories to the crime, all members of the Scions of the Seventh Dawn will be detained for questioning!”

What in seven hells?! An absolutely wild #gaming session of #FFXIV last weekend. The poisoning and #heartbreaking death of Her Royal Majesty #Nanamo Ul Namo was somewhat expected due to the #quest steps prior. [1/2]
An overhead view of a deceased character with blonde hair wearing a red and white ornate outfit lying on a decorative rug. Blood is visible on the carpet, and a bell and other objects are scattered nearby. The scene appears to be inside a palace or mansion with ornate flooring. An overhead view showing the aftermath of violence - a blonde character lies deceased on an ornate rug with visible blood pooling around them. Several armored soldiers in red tunics and chainmail stand around the body, while a player character in dark blue and white armor observes from the left side of the frame.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ A cutscene showing a player character in black and white attire holding a sword, surrounded by multiple Crystal Brave soldiers wearing distinctive blue coats and bucket-style helmets. The dialogue box reads: “Sir. Barring a few exceptions, we have detained all those with allegiance to the Scions. The Rising Stones is also under our control.” The scene takes place in a wood-paneled interior room with a decorative rug. A dark, dramatic scene showing a muscular character with reddish hair in combat attire positioned above, while a character with long dark hair is visible in the foreground from behind. The setting appears to be inside a stone building with classical architecture and columns, lit with warm golden lighting.

Immensely #thankful that my #wife purchased the #Lego #GameBoy set spontaneously. It was such a #fun build and brought back some fond memories. The #build is impressive and very spot on! I had to dig out my old green Gameboy that still had #MegaMan5 in it. [1/2]
A gray LEGO-styled Nintendo Game Boy with brick pattern details and pink A and B buttons, displayed with two Game Boy cartridges: Super Mario Land showing Mario and other characters on the label, and The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening with a yellow background and sword graphic. Two Nintendo Game Boys side by side - a green Game Boy on the left displaying Mega Man V title screen, and a gray LEGO-styled Game Boy on the right with brick pattern design, pink buttons, and blank screen.

#Story Time! I almost lost the #FFXIV #trial (if even possible?) of Broken Bridges against #Vishap on the Steps of Faith because I completely forgot that I had the #weaponskill Venomous and Wind Bite on my left #crossbar . So I was missing out on a significant amount of #damage . [1/2]
A cutscene showing two characters in an ornate room with golden decorative elements and dark wood paneling. In the foreground right, a white-haired Elezen character with pointed ears wears dark armor with mechanical goggles around their neck. In the background left stands another figure in red and black formal attire with a distinctive hat. A dialogue box at the bottom reads: “Alphinaud: Crises like these are the very reason why this alliance was formed! It is our duty to aid our fellow man!” A dramatic upward angle shot of a large dragon perched atop fortress towers. The dragon has massive outstretched wings with visible membrane details, multiple horns on its head, and a long neck. Two stone towers with yellow-trimmed battlements frame the creature on either side. The sky behind is an overcast blue-gray. A smaller dragon flies in the distance to the right. A wide view of a snow-dusted courtyard or arena with worn stone flooring. In the center stands a lone warrior wielding a glowing blue weapon. A massive dragon descends from above with wings spread wide, approaching the ground. Stone towers and fortifications line both sides of the area. In the background, there’s a monument or statue, and a brazier burns with orange flames. The atmosphere is cold and gray. An intense battle scene engulfed in brilliant orange and yellow flames that fill the left side of the frame. A dark dragon silhouette emerges through the inferno, backlit by the fire. On the right, a lone warrior in light-colored armor stands on a stone platform or dock, wielding a glowing blue weapon while facing the dragon. Fortress architecture is visible in the background through the haze and flames.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

It’s been such a hot minute since the last time I played #FFXIV , that it even asked if I wanted a returner boost. I’m still in #ARR and almost level 60, I think I’m good 🤣. We wrapped up #patch 2.5 with the memorial of #Moenbryda , a death that still stings. [1/2]
Party gathering at the crystalline formations, mourning the death of Moenbryda. Dragons soaring through twilight skies, silhouettes against the fading light. The Adventurer standing vigil in the grand hall, surrounded by fellow adventurers awaiting their next challenge. Standing before Ishgard’s grand cathedral, the weight of destiny heavy in the misty air.

Decided to give #Fallout 4 a try on the #LegionGo and it runs quite smoothly. Never actually completed the #game all the way to the end or any of the #DLC . Always ended #modding it to death and then bugging out. [1/2]
The player character examines a damaged Protectron robot in what appears to be a Vault-Tec facility or industrial workshop. The green machinery and atmospheric lighting create a moody scene as the survivor investigates the pre-war technology scattered throughout the Commonwealth.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ The Sole Survivor has a reunion with their pre-war robot butler Codsworth outside a deteriorated home. The faithful Mr. Handy seems concerned about his owner’s worn appearance after 200 years, while inquiring about the whereabouts of the missus. The contrast between the cheerful robot and the post-apocalyptic decay is striking.

Decided to give No Man’s Sky #NMS a try on my #LegionGo running #SteamOS and it runs pretty decent. #CPU usage is average and #GPU usually above 90% at lowest settings. However, both internal temps remain around high 65-70°C. Some #texture rendering hiccups but honestly 100% playable. [1/2]
A sleek red starfighter approaches a massive circular space station from above, its weathered hull panels and geometric design floating against the starlit void of deep space. A space traveler stands in a bustling starship hangar, their helmet glowing with amber and green lights as various spacecraft rest on the landing platforms behind them. An astronaut explorer ventures through an alien surface, illuminated by bioluminescent turquoise pillars rising from the crystalline depths beneath an ice-covered surface.
