I’m very interested in this clawdbot/moltbot assistant…. Looking into it with great enthusiasm.

One more day of work and I get a 6 day break. Busy week planned ahead!

An attempt of a long exposure shot by hand on a moving platform by the waters edge at #FelonsBreweryCo in Brisbane. This is a photo of the #StoryBridge.

Some photos taken at #AustraliaZoo with #RobertIrwin at the #Crocoseum doing a show and educating us into the dangers of crocodiles on the waters edge vs on land.

Along with my learning of Luau scripting. I have dabbled in Blender courses and taught myself to make models do our Indy game #SLColonies.

I’ve been so happy with the progress.

Here’s a screenshot of a chilli plant 🌶️ and another of an unfinished cherry tree 🍒

I’m taking a #Udemy course on #Blender with 160+ hours of content. I want to help more in our indie game. As the visionary, I’ve directed and ideated, but joining in can speed up our process for players!

I made my own sound effects and coded a health and energy HUD that has a special effect on exhaustion. Check it out youtu.be/xTTX2I0yE… - I haven’t even started building the world yet.

Small update. I’ve been deep in code learning #Luau and now playing around with #RobloxStudio as I learn more. AI has been handy in that instead of asking it to “spit out code” - I prompt it to act as a mentor and teacher, guiding me where to “look” prior to giving me examples if I ask for help.

I signed up to #Udemy to take on their #Lua and #Love2D courses.

I learned recently that #SecondLife is taking on the #Lua or in their case the #SLua language. Now is the best opportunity for me to dig in and teach myself coding and in particular, in this language so that I can help improve on #SLColonies, my pet project.

I’m going to try out the Documentation plugin for #Discourse. Our community has outgrown wiki’s of one page with tables of hundreds of game recipes that cannot be searched by our players. Time to have everything indexed and searchable properly I think.

And now I also made it so that our #Discourse welcome banner also changes on seasons and holidays. A living skin!

Made a little javascript on our #Discourse banner that rotates the sub-header based on if you are logged in or anonymous. Logged in user subheading will rotate on a daily basis - forum.slcolonies.com, check it out. I also added little tag icons for fun.

I’ve been doing 30 minutes of #skipping every day, with about 100 #pushups and #situps. But with my cardio health up, wasn’t pushing beyond 140bpm. Throw in claps in the pushups, and I peaked at the 170 range - woohoo! Progress.

Well, I finished playing around with #Discourse for the night. I setup a category in our community forums with an RSS feed to see how it works and if it’s worth keeping for cross-posting purposes to my community for #SLColonies.

I’ve been fiddling around with our #Discourse forum most of the day. I am trying to move my community away from #Discord. My community is not active in live chat, and guiding them into the forums as our community HUB seems the smarter idea.

Found this in my “to-do” pile of photos to edit and realised just how beautiful this was. Thought I would share it with the world. This was taken on a day trip down to #CapeSchanck in #Victoria. It is a beautiful Black-Shouldered Kite hunting for its prey. It was along the coast line.

brought the laptop to work because we have our Christmas party on in a few hours after work, and not worth driving back and forth in traffic. Seems trying to procrastinate from a work location isn’t as easy as I thought. Also forgot any games I had were installed on my external SSD 🕹️

Meta buys AI wearable startup Limitless to expand devices news.kagi.com

Interesting. Never heard about limitless before now. Wearables that listen to you all day? Not sure I would trust meta with that data personally. But something local and on device?
