RPG Maker is taking version number inflation seriously. Now up to 1005 (MV).
Also in today's deliveries, Yoga Cats. The directions say to use water, but it's better with warm milk.
Today's deliveries included 25 pounds of cinnamon pieces. I use a lot of cinnamon in my chai concentrate.
Should I wear a mask for the author bio pic on the Roasted Coffee Product Development ebook marketing page?
Maybe I'll wear a mask for the author bio photo on the web site. I can always change that later.
Mostly finished the design update over the holiday weekend. I want a better author bio photo (for the design I just grabbed something convenient), some tweaks to the preview pages section, and I want to make sure it's not awful on phone browsers or if someone is idiotic enough to run their web browser full screen on something ridiculously wide.
Unloaded a truck of coffee. Now it's time for donuts.

"We didn't call it fuzzing back in the 1950s, but it was our standard practice to test programs by inputting decks of punch cards taken from the trash.
We also used decks of random number punch cards. We weren't networked in those days, so we weren't much worried about security, but our random/trash decks often turned up undesirable behavior.
Every programmer I knew used the trash-deck technique."

With the release of my book coming up soon, I decided that it was about time to rework the site and make that more attractive. Didn't finish that work and haven't uploaded the changes, but the work so far makes me feel like I'd be more likely to buy the book had I not written it. When I first put that up I intentionally went with something low effort because I wanted to spend the time writing the book instead of marketing it.
Next coffee shipment is scheduled for Tuesday morning. I'll need to double check, but the coffee from Papua New Guinea might be the same as what we had most recently (the ICO# matches something we've had and if it matches the most recent thing it's probably the same coffee) which would let me get that out on the shelf faster. The new coffee from Brazil (a Sul de Minas) will take a couple days to go through the whole product development process.

Archaeologists believe that in the early 21st century, every person had a 'true name', an odd string of letters, dots, and the symbol '@' within it. We believe the '@", given its similarity of shape to a spiral galaxy, was a sacred symbol of the cosmos, the world, or power. It was used almost exclusively in words of power.
While these 'true names' appeared everywhere, the ancients avoided writing them down and would often remove the '.' and '@' glyphs. Our current theory is that the ancients believed in a malevolent deity made of pork whose attention they did not wish to attract.

Made too much dinner.
Fresh water filters arrived today. Those have now been installed. Still waiting on a label to return the wrong filters that were originally sent.
New power supply arrived. It was a good idea, but sadly, did not resolve the issue it was intended to fix. My hacky work around still works fine, so I'll just keep going with that.
I think my new strategy for the post office is to go past the usable entrance, park on the street, and take a longer walk to and from the building. The one legal car exit has signs directing everything one way toward more road construction and ignoring the big do not enter on the other entrance like most people seem to do is unreliable as traffic can get backed up there with surprising rapidity. Not using the post office's parking lot preserves the best options for leaving.
The cat is upset that I saw her fall off the couch.
Tried out an HDMI capture thingy and its passthrough is not very passthrough-y. Introduces enough delay to make rhythm games unplayable. Oddly, the USB side of that is better. Watching the OBS window I get less terrible. Pretty sure it's not just me because as soon as I unplugged that I went from not clear to personal best.
figure eye contact, phantom, spooky
