I’ve been playing my guitar a fair bit. Relearning the solo dem another brick in the wall pt 2 because I never learned it right whe I was in high school and really wanna get that 5 fret bend down right. Havent learned a solo in a while, pretty easy reintro to solos.

Been getting my old anet 8 3d printer working again for a project for my girlfriend. Pretty fun iterativeprocess.

Also fucking around with retro games on an old pi I had sitting around. Contra hard corps is hella fun.

So what do you like doing? What have you been having fun with? What do you like?

    Retro achievements. https://retroachievements.org/

    Now, I don’t think seeking all the achievements is the best way to experience a game in most cases, especially if you’re playing it the first time. But games I’ve already played, maybe multiple times? RA adds goals which often make me aware of content or possibility within games I’m already familiar! Also, retro games run on modest hardware.

    I’m currently trying to “master” Solar Jetman, an NES game I’ve always loved. The achievements have made me appreciate the game even more. I was like “wow, there’s more to appreciate in this game than I imagined.”

      I just got a little retro gaming handheld to play at night and it’s kicking my ass. I was thinking of integrating those achievements, but I think Imna learn how to play older games a little better first.

      You got any chill retro games you can recommend I can wind down with?
