Things you shouldn't say to your mad scientist father

This morning I tried the Touhou 17 demo. As usual for this series, it runs very well in wine on linux (older titles in this series often run better in wine on linux than they do on current Windows machines). I will, of course, be focusing on Youmu's route first.

Speaking of reference notes, today I received this gift in the mail. The note inside says that this book wasn't published, but was made available to people who bought a $2M Scolari roaster.

Recording is done. Some minimal editing is still required, but I should be able to knock that out this evening and get this uploaded tomorrow. Be sure to watch til the end for a special guest appearance by Punk, the cat.

Doing some final checks before recording the next episode of Coffee and Code. I've decided to film this episode in my library in front of a painting that I picked up on my first trip to Ethiopia.

Thinking of maybe doing something like this for a future video. The segment title animates when it changes and everything you see has a banquet of script bindings. #QML

Time for belly rubs

Dark mode? The yellow mark is easier to read at least.

Did a little clean up on the graph showing roasting plans for a class I've been teaching lately. Temperatures are based on what they'd be on my machines locally and should probably be removed because it's the timing of event milestones that's important here and those are going to happen at different temperatures on different machines with different probes in different places. It's cooler in interactive form.

more cat

Cat wants to hang out with me.

Dad's cat has a chair. I was invited over for free food and that sounded better than lawn mowing.

GPU has fallen off the bus. I hope it didn't get injured. #linux #YearOfThePenguin #nvidia

Time for some sample roasting

Which dog are you?

Oh, I missed that the new chapter of VFiS is translated. https://mangadex.org/chapter/596737/1

This is about what the plan was for the roasts performed in my latest class, though anything off R series has a bit more flexibility. The goal is to show both a light to dark progression as well as the impact of some of the different decisions you can make about how to get to the end point. R3 is technically performed at 2 different stations. The non-specification of time prior to yellow is intentional because different machines drive differently in that range and it's chemically uninteresting.

Here's the text moved a little farther to the left, yellow dashed line, orange text in the Penguin Attack font set to a larger size.

Trying something a little different for marking event thresholds. The first crack and second crack lines shown here can be extensively customized and animated beyond good sense.
