Time to Experiment

There has been a lot of "Let's Play" videos on YouTube lately, and some of which have seen quite some success at getting an audience for simply playing the game while recording. I've always wanted to do one myself, but I don't exactly have the tools for doing that quite yet. Even aside from that, I don't have a gaming partner to be in the show with either, unfortunately. That might not be all that important, but I'm not confident in my own personality to be entertaining to the audience, especially when I may be too focused on the game.

I have been talking a lot about doing experiments on this blog with very little to show for it as of yet, but I may start looking into ways of recording my gaming sessions with Fraps or possibly stream the game on Twitch. I'm not entirely sure if Pugyuu can handle all that however, but that's what the experiment will be about. I will be posting updates regarding this, as I'd really like to put more gaming related entertainment here, and possibly a lot less walls of texts I end up having. Stay tuned!

Adobe Flash Fail

Don't worry, this is just an image; not actual flash on the site.
It feels fairly frequently that Adobe wants us to update our Adobe Flash plug-ins for our browsers; at least for FireFox for me. But honestly, I find that each of these updates they give us ends up breaking something else with Flash. What's up with that? Is Adobe even checking the updates for the recent browser versions before releasing them? Seriously, I've skipped the past 5 or so updates because one of them would crash my whole browser if I tried to access my webcam to go on a webcam chat. Another time, it would stop any and all videos I try to watch after one minute or something and won't let me continue watching them. As for the latest update that it asked us not even a week ago, it's not as bad as stopping the video, but the videos lose audio after a minute. What the hell, Adobe? Get your updates straight for FireFox already.

Demotivational Post

It certainly does seem like I've been updating a lot less frequently on this blog for some reason. I shouldn't be any busier than any previous months since the start of 2013, and yet my posting frequency is only decreasing. Why is that? Well, the simple answer is that I am not sure what I should talk about. A lot of things that I had to say have already been said on the blog. I try to bring myself to be more productive, but I end up being too tired from the morning job schedules. I'm wondering whether if this could be a sign of depression causing a lack of motivation on my part to be as productive as I could be. Honestly, I wouldn't doubt it. It's nearing half a year since Firion had passed away, and I certainly don't have much to look forward to each day. And yet, I am still being oppressed by the undeserving cats in this house who are still being pampered by everyone else when Firion never got any attention at all. This isn't a healthy situation I am in, but what else is there for me to do but to shut myself away in the sanctuary that I've made in this room for Firion, all by myself?

Spring Backlog Cleaning

It's been a while since I've done my backlog updates. I've certainly done a lot since my last one, although maybe it only feels that way. It's hard for myself to even keep up with what I have left unless I do these backlog updates, so regardless of whether if you care or not, here it is!
