#introductions
I'm a #tabletop gamer, that does the occasional bit of #DnD. But I also play many #VideoGames on #PC

I enjoy finding new #music and I'm willing to listen to any recommendations - regardless of #genre!

I Have an interest in #philosophy, especially #ethics & #political, as well as huge interest in #psychology. I also have a large interest in #technology & digital #privacy.

Studying #CompSci in the #UK - mostly #java / #javascript / #python.

This is my more general instance.

I do wonder how much of the people saying "IT'S COMING HOME!" are being serious...

Did a little messing around with #RSS feeds and I've really fell in love with them, and I'm so happy #Mozilla #Thunderbird has an in-built RSS reader.

Find + Replace: Worked on --> progressed.

Proofreading Part 2: Correcting tenses.

A lesson learnt this morning: keep your .doc / .odt files even if submitting as a .pdf.

And now for the worst part of report writing, proofreading!

Go away from my hometown for a few days and then suddenly there's massive storms. It's all anyone's talked about all day and I feel like I've missed out.

Saw a great comedy film yesterday but in terms of plot not much actually happens in it.
Still, would recommend it: "Withnail and I"

I'd love to get involved in contributing to open source more, but all the projects I end up finding tend to be really large and intimidating or the interesting projects are in a language I hardly understand.
Any tips for starting out?

Bass Guitar fixed: now it's time to spend the week annoying neighbours.

A week off ahead, and I'm planning on doing very little with it and taking a much needed period of chilling out.
In reality it'll end up being a week of being very busy and then wondering why I'm still worn out.

The current question is to Scandinavia or not to Scandinavia

Continuing the plans for travelling around Europe.
Don't suppose anyone knows of any hidden gems to visit or has any travel tips?

Reading The Prince has sure made me a different type of Ruler in Crusader Kings II.

Who knew Machiavelli would affect my gaming life?

Didn't expect that moving back to guitar from bass would hurt my fingers so much, if at all.

Minor success today.

Managed to work out what a German word that I haven't seen before meant. Probably too proud of myself, but I am out of practice.

I never know what to do with albums that I've listened to and thought they were good but wouldn't listen to them again. Do I recommend them to people with that warning, just recommend it to people or leave it in my stash of forgotten albums I've listened to?

Really cool website showing the "genealogy of music": https://musicmap.info/
