An assuredly non-political post
9 years ago
Well, I'm keeping up with the submission inbox now. That's an improvement.
Anyway, I'm sure we all have our opinions on the recent election, but I won't be voicing mine here. I already glossed over it a little on my twitter, so I'm mostly over it now. This paragraph is all I'll be talking about it anywhere on this website. And this paragraph is now over.
Shifting gears, I've got some life happening in the near future, so I may go dormant. Rest assured that even if I do I'll still come back. In particular, my household is looking into moving. Right now we're shopping around for a new place. I have one I like, but even if we all decide to go with it there's no telling whether we'll get it. Things are very much in flux right now, so I probably won't post anything else on the subject until things become a little clearer.
In other news, I'm also saving up to buy a new computer. The one I have is a couple of years old and can play most games I want it to without a problem (as long as I lower all the graphics settings), but it's starting to show its age. I'll be building my next computer myself, and I've already got it (mostly) specced out. It'll cost roughly $1,200 for everything (not counting discounts, shipping, or mail-in rebates), and it'll have a pretty good balance of cost and power. It should be able to do anything I want it to (including recording Let's Play videos, live streaming, and video editing) for at least a couple years. I've also made sure it's very upgrade-friendly so I only have to buy one or two parts whenever it starts struggling, as opposed to a whole new computer. I've got everything planned out, from the parts I'll use to how I'll use them. Now I just have to save up. It's a good thing I have a day job!
I guess that's about all I have to say for now. Most of what I have to discuss I've already brought up on my twitter. I think I end up posting more in-the-moment stuff to twitter, then sit down every so often to write a post here about the broad strokes of what's going on in my life. Here's a link to my twitter profile, in case anyone cares that much. Sorry for not posting anything about Low-Rez Labs this time, but there's really not much going on there. These things develop slowly, it turns out. I'll keep you guys updated on anything that does happen, though. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have some goofing off to do.
