Have more or less begun in earnest, the process of converting my solitaire blog to HTML. And that involves - yes - smashing together another stylesheet for it. There are things that I can't do in pure CSS, but I can still at least achieve the feel that I'm looking for, here.

Just a lot of busywork left, really.

https://netizen.club/~wildweasel/golfers.html - Just an update to the Golfer's Gallery over at Golfshrine today, with a few golfers I hadn't gotten around to adding, plus subsections on costume editors and course designers.

https://netizen.club/~wildweasel/updates/2024-11-09.html - Been slacking on updating for long enough that I almost forgot which golf games I've bought and not added to Golfshrine, including one that was supposed to be part of last month's update. Fewer games, more info. Let's get this done.

https://netizen.club/~wildweasel/weaselswriting/ - yesterday and today, I've spent my time laboriously converting all of my writing that I did for Cohost, into HTML that I can host on my own webspace. Everything is now properly organized, and because I have full control over its presentation, each setting now has its own neat little CSS style associated with it. If you enjoy genre fiction, there is Quite A Lot of it here.

Working on relocating my writing - especially the stuff from Cohost - to a subsection of my webspace on Netizen Club (the same space Golfshrine is hosted on). This gives me more control over its presentation than with Dreamwidth or Wordpress.

It also lets me make the text glow like a terminal.

If nothing else but wordle will do, and you have an old Palm OS device somewhere, there's always palmdle! https://github.com/Lana-chan/palmdle

haven't drawn a Toastoy in a while, so here y'all go

https://netizen.club/~wildweasel/golfswings.html - Going live with a slightly more analytical article for Golfshrine, as I think about how being good at a golf video game is nowhere near the same thing as being good at actual golf.

thank you Matt Grey for this wonderful new image that I will save for when it is most needed

"Maybe I _have_ hit bottom, and maybe I _do_ look like hell. Lord knows the only exercise I've had lately is tipping the bottle and flipping cards into my hat. ...I'm going to scare up a job today if it means finding somebody's lost puppy."

Tex Murphy, one of my favorite video game characters of all time. Private eye, hardboiled where it counts, total doofus at almost all other times.

I added a Links section to Golfshrine. ...I'm not sure that it's quite what the audience expects to find in a Links section. 😅​

browser, fuck off and let me look at my bookmarks toolbar, i do not want numbers, i want results

https://netizen.club/~wildweasel/updates/2024-10-10.html The much-delayed PRGE 2024 edition of the Golfshrine Acquisitions Update! Got a couple of especially interesting and long-needed additions to the Shrine this time around, so check it out - do it for Schmoe. Don't make Schmoe sad. 😦

If you'd like these wallpapers for your own similar setup, here are the files, for 1080x1920 and 1920x1200 respectively.

Even if it's always going to be covered by application windows, it's always nice to put my own photographs on my desktop wallpaper. These came out really nice. At least I'll always glimpse them when I'm logging in to the machine in the morning.

I'd like to think that UFO 50's "LX" computer exists in the same parallel reality as Last Call BBS's "Powerlance." Both of them appear to have taken design cues after Sony's HIT-BIT line of MSX computers.

https://netizen.club/~wildweasel/updates/2024-09-23.html - on top of some readability changes (that you might have to clear your cache for... 🤔 ), today's Golfshrine update contains 3 acquisitions, one duplicate, several new friends, and one capybara.

funny how life runs in themes sometimes. family acquaintances from church are getting rid of clothes that are too big for them, so now I own a polo shirt from the Torrey Pines golf course.

i learned this the same day i was goofing around in a golf sim in which Torrey Pines is an included course.

life, man. 🤷‍♂️

A lot of years ago, I took on an art study project where I traced over low-resolution screenshots of old games to see if I could "find" the detail in them. I never quite finished this one but I wanted to fill the bookshelf with as many silly things as possible. Some of it I slightly regret putting in there.
