I’ve been pretty busy despite my unemployment. My current projects are as follows:
- Upgrade old Virtual Furnal Equinox worlds from 2021 through 2023 to newer Unity / VCC
- Godot lessons I purchased a while ago. I’ve finished most of the 2D ones, but job hunting…
- Job hunting keeps me busy a lot
- Re-writing my resume based on conflicting criteria from basically everyone
- Finding out it’s really the good old fashioned networking thing that actually gets the goods
- Electronics projects basically all the time:
- Got a bunch of $80 giant caps from a friend (Mepix) which could be used for fun mischief
- Got a relay and a bunch of super capacitors (3V 1f) from Mepix as well
- 3D printing hat hangers for Biku
- Set up a security camera so I can take fun timelapses out my window
- Found a few 4K TVs being thrown out, and I like to try to diagnose them for fun
- Gave a friend a 4K TV for his birthday that only needed a 90 cent part to fix
- Made a battery bank out of 18650 cells that were perfectly good which someone threw out a whole box of
- Painted a cute little mural on our kitchen wall
- Re-decorating our apartment after the whole bed bug fiasco in this building
- Hung a lot of art while trying to give each room careful consideration
- Stared into the void because the ‘muricans voted that orange turd in again
- Laughing into the void because ‘muricans are all women now (actually non-binary)
- Took up doing some Brilliant lessons because the YouTube ads finally got to me (it’s fun!)
- Surpassed 1500 days of streak in Duolingo for Japanese! No I’m not fluent but much better!
- Took up Coddy because one unknown YouTuber talked about it and it sounded fun
- The C++ coding challenges are fun since I haven’t touched that much since Trent University
- Read a book on React to sharpen my skills while looking for jobs
- Rewrote a lot of my personal website in React, then shelved that because I have too damn many projects!
- Helping out with and/or attending local furry events
- Working on 3D models for the next CozyCon event happening in September
There’s probably far more, but sometimes it’s helpful for me to write out what I’ve accomplished, so I don’t feel defeated by the brain worms.
What does your list look like?
