Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Did you happen to change something recently? The title screen was changing periodically as I was playing it a couple of months ago. It didn't update every time a character joined, but after a handful of characters joined. 100
Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 06/10/2026After some guidance from the video card seller and reseating the card a few times, it ended up working. I had some trouble installing drivers, but all of the ghosting is gone now. 050
Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 05/10/2026The new video card didn't work—computer would not boot. Incompatible with the chips on the motherboard that I have? Switched back to my old video card. 030
Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 03/10/2026I've heard of how much the latest video cards cost today. This 1999-era video card cost $28, allegedly brand new. (On ebay.) 050
Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 01/10/2026How have you arranged these deals? Did you reach out to KEMCO, or did they contact you? 100
Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 30/09/2026My NofNA computer's monitor suddenly developed more severe ghosting than it already had before. When I hooked it up to my late father's computer to verify, all ghosting gone! I've ordered a replacement video card, but I'm nervous about changing it, since the computer/motherboard is so old... 180
Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Delete the space after a comma, or after a period and before the next sentence. 000
Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 11/09/2026This was back in the days of Knytt and Cactus and the Fez guy, Fish. 011
Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 11/09/2026I remember its predecessor better, before it became its own domain name (if I remember correctly).It had 4 low-res African mask-looking icons in a row near the blog name and was run by a small bunch of people.There were often fights in the comment section.I remember the demo for Minecraft on there. 110
Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 11/09/2026When I had a vacation back in the Spring, the theme was "do all of this motorcycle maintenance." The theme of my vacation this time is "do all of this stuff for your colonoscopy". 0110
Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 07/09/2026You put a lot of work into this, so I don't think you should totally get rid of it. If bosses are too big, maybe if you end up organizing encounters into some kind of scripted groups,the last enemy in the group or the last enemy in the general vicinity can get those finisher options laid out for it. 001
Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 24/08/2026I'm under the impression that the editors demand certain criteria, like fighting, and many authors don't know how to handle it for long. They might even be pushed away from their original visions by the demands of the label. 0141
Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 21/07/2026...the sink cabinets. If I had not been home, this basement apartment would have probably flooded. So, it might be worth it to check those flex hoses underneath your sink for obvious damage. The hose that failed had frayed metal braiding and bulging rubber where those metal fibers had frayed. 050
Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Regarding the hose that blew up underneath my kitchen sink, I should emphasize that it failed out of nowhere. The faucet was off, and I was working on NofNA stuff about 10 feet away when I heard a whooshing sound. I thought that my soup was boiling over, but then I noticed water pouring out of... 150
Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 17/07/2026Whew... The hot water line burst underneath my kitchen sink, covering the front of my apartment in a mm of hot water. 3 hours later, new hose is in its place. Working on your own motor vehicles is good because everything else becomes easy by comparison. (Plus, you have tools for everything.) 070
Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 18/06/2026I got a temporary crown to cover a root canal that I had done back in March.This crown is really painful in a totally unexpected way.It's cemented in place with a blob of dental cement that has the texture of sandstone.It really abrades my tongue as I try to keep chewed food to one side of my mouth! 030

Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 19/04/2026I accidentally cut off a sliver from the tip of my ring finger with a kitchen scissor. It hurts a lot... it's also not completely round any more. 150
Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 03/04/2026NofNA will only update once next week, as one of the days that I use for drawing, this Sunday, happens to fall on my Mom's 80th birthday, which is also coincidentally Easter this year. 080
Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 25/03/2026I got a root canal in one of my molars. My mouth is still numb, but I have to eat before I go to work. The orthodontist said to not chew on that side of my mouth, so I'm just having a vitamin shake for lunch. But because my mouth is still numb, and I can only use one side, I'm barely keeping it in. 060

Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 27/12/2025So stupid that you have to live through this BS. Happy for your studio's successes so far in spite of it all. 000
Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 21/10/2025The next NofNA page was too complicated to finish in a single session, so the next update will have to be next week. 070
Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 16/10/2025Thanks for the lesson! I hadn't even considered it were an acquired toxin in the first place. 100
Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 14/10/2025Were there normal-colored poison dart frogs? I had a suspicion that the way that warning colors evolve in poisonous animals is that, the warning color starts as an adjacent mutation, and then, all of the normal ones are just eaten, both killing off the original color and everything that sought it. 130

Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 16/09/2025I added way too much orzo to my pot of soup. Ruined. It's almost solid orzo. Now I have to eat it all, and it wasn't very good to begin with. 250
Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 29/08/2025Oops, I just realized that I didn't read the day of my doctor's appointment correctly. NofNA will update both days that week after all. 080
Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 27/08/2025My phone's speaker stopped working. Which means call alert sounds don't work and I can't know when I'm receiving a call. Apparently, there're two speakers in phones, though... one for your ear, and the main one that plays sound you can hear far away. I ordered a replacement main speaker. 030
Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 21/08/2025NofNA will not update on September 2nd, as I have a doctor's appointment that day. 040

Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 03/08/2025Finished revising Autography. All that remains to be done is to draw graphics for the final (first) book, then the .pdfs will be complete. After that, they'll need to be broken up into their web versions' pages. 050
Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 26/07/2025The next step is editing the third book. After that, I have to compile book 1 in the self-publisher,then compile book 2 again (because the original is in Adobe's InDesign format, which I no longer have since that computer's power supply is now defunct).Book 3 is already compiled; just needs editing. 040
Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 26/07/2025Finished editing Glyptography (book 2) for compliance with the first book. It required reading it again and making notes of what needed to be changed, then sitting down and reading it yet again as I went through it and changed certain sentences or passages. 030
Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 11/07/2025In addition to finishing the first novel of the "-graphy" series, it seems like I'll need to edit the second one as well, maybe even the third one. This is what happens when you leave the first in a series for last. 030
Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 08/07/2025The next NofNA novel and final part of "-graphy" is essentially finished. Now comes all of the editing and re-reading. The re-reading is annoying because it can't be done properly for as long as the writing is in memory, which means, waiting to forget what happens in the book! 030
Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 23/05/2025I did not receive a prescription for antibiotics from this dentist, which is understandable given the situation around antibiotics, but my recovery is slower this time because of it. I received an antiseptic mouthwash instead. Still sore about not being able to keep my extracted teeth!! 110
Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 23/05/2025Day 3 after my tooth extractions, I can chew without pain in my jaw now. My gums are still swollen and bloody at times, giving a sensation like teething, when baby teeth fall out and adult teeth come in, something that I have not felt in, like, 35 years. 120
Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 20/05/2025It's a shame that I wasn't able to keep the whole one, at least, because it had some odd, spiky bone growth on one of the root tines. Other than that, it's been painful—eating even yogurt with fruit hurt a lot, despite using the opposite side of my mouth—but otherwise, I'm recovering. 020
Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 20/05/2025My surgery ended up OK, but the result wasn't as good as last time. One of my teeth broke while it was being removed, and the extraction necessitated a stitch. The other tooth came out whole, but the dentist wouldn't let me keep either one for some reason. 120
Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 19/05/2025In addition, I've lately been preparing to refresh my hard drive. My current NofNA computer's hard drive is about 12 years old now, and I like to replace them before they fail. I always get nervous something will go wrong, though... It's tricky to install Windows 98 in 2025. 030
Zachary Braun @nofna.bsky.social · 19/05/2025Tomorrow, I go in for oral surgery, to extract the wisdom teeth on the left side of my mouth. Because of this, NofNA won't update on Thursday. 030
