Did you know my wife and I run a festival/conference/summer camp on our farm? If you’re in #Manitoba and want to come hang out and learn some endangered skills in small hands-on workshops, have good food, and listen to Burnstick and Two Crows for Comfort LIVE…

Both EGGNOGG and Arecibo Man have been fun, plus there are other prototypes that have been super fun as well, and may eventually see the light of day. It's whatever thing I am doing that lets me unleash my creativity.

OK I'm actually going to make Pi Zero 2 W a legit target for my stuff, actually seems like it should be readily achievable and a fun goal. I developed Saucelifter and Fargoal on a Pentium II, after all. I'm counting on you to do the heavy lifting though, SDL3 🙏

I'm going to bump this just one more time here. I don't want to be a downer. I'm a 25 year professional software/game dev/community organizer that's in *DIRE* need of employment ASAP! I've been stuck in tech-company interview & waiting hell the past 9+ months. I desperately need a job or gig now. 💜

Haha.. if EGGNOGG Rumble was being developed for 10 years straight, it would have taken over the galaxy by now. I haven't really done much with it in that time. I am thinking to do a sort of incremental version (EGGNOGG++ perhaps) and rework what Rumble will actually be after that.

if you're looking to learn martial arts for self defense in a protest scenario, judo is a really good idea. it's MUCH easier to learn trips, throws, how to use your weight, breakfalls, scrambles, etc than to learn striking. striking is great but it takes a lot longer to achieve proficiency

Hmm, I do have a server but haven't made it public yet. I suppose that I should get on that. And yeah the plan is to get an EGGNOGG version on Steam, using the Remote Play Together for online initially.
