    What listen ?

    I love the Project Diva games. There is a lot of vocaloid music that I enjoy much more than I ever thought I would.

    Further Education

    I have considered quitting my job and going back to school, likely to do a 2-3 year college diploma program at the most, though shorter is better because I’ll need to get back to earning money before too long… buuuuuut my current job is pretty easy, has a few rather nice perks, and it’s far easier to just keep doing it. My wife’s about to complete an ECE course so I’ll make my decision once she’s working full-time.

    2024 Baseball Season

    I was thinking the same thing. Don’t make any sense to me. Many things about the HoF don’t make sense to me

    Ortiz is in, Bonds (and Clemens) are out. I don’t get it. I would argue that Ortiz was not as good of a hitter as Bonds was, and Ortiz didn’t really have any other skills while Bonds was a very good base runner and defender on top of being an incredible hitter.

    Barry's gotta be in the HoF, to me that's a no-brainer. IIRC he is alleged to have used PEDs started in the late 90's..? Look at his stats from the decade before that. He was obviously already on the HoF fast track. His numbers were insane. Steals, HRs, average, OBP, I think 2 or 3 MVP awards when he was still on the Pirates, numerous Gold Glove awards in the outfield. Bonds is no doubt in my mind deserving of a place in the HoF.

    Diablo 2 Resurrected

    Now my Pally, Patriarch zed, is finished with Hell. ? Druid -- Summoner Druid, later re-spec'd into Wind Druid -- DONE Sorc -- Fireball Sorc, later re-spec'd into Frozen Orb / Fireball Sorc -- DONE Necro -- Summoner / Corpse Explosion -- DONE Barb -- Double Swing / Frenzy Barb, re-spec'd into Singer / War Cry build -- DONE Pally -- Conviction Zealot -- DONE Amazon -- Charged Strike / Lightning Fury Javazon -- Started a character and got her through to Act II Normal a couple weeks ago Assassin -- Trapsin probably -- Traps-based builds are less gear-dependent and I haven't found decent stuff for a Martial Arts build... still yet to create this character... A typical Zealot would use Fanaticism as their main aura, but I went with Conviction because I happened to have some gear that would add a lot of elemental damage. The defense and resistance debuffs from max level Conviction are great. Very easy play through overall. Zeal + lots of Crushing Blow gear made Act bosses a breeze. Hell Baal went down so fast The biggest challenge for this character was probably Hell Ancients. I had a lot of bad luck with them. Next up is the Javazon.

    Hopefully they fix that as much as they can in the anime.

    Diablo 2 Resurrected

    A bunch of new runewords have been previewed by various D2 YouTubers in the past couple days. Lots of changes coming in the upcoming patch 2.4. New runewords, class/balance changes to encourage the use of a variety of different skills instead of just the cookie-cutter builds for each class, and I think they're also trying to make the Act I, III, and V mercenaries more viable too as most people only use Act II mercs. This is some pretty exciting stuff! A few of the new runewords I looked at look really solid, but sadly they have high runes that I will probably never have as a single player guy. Get those Cham runes outta here please! In other news, my Pally is in Act IV Hell. Pretty smooth sailing so far. He's not the fastest killer, but I have massive defense with maxed Holy Shield, and crazy resistances from my gear. I can't think of a safer melee build than a Zealot, even with crummy self-found single player gear.

    Had a look at the first episode of Cue! tonight. It's a slice of life about seiyuu. Not great, but OK. I really enjoyed Girlish Number a few years back, also about seiyuu, so I was hoping Cue! might capture a bit of that magic. It ain't the same, of course, at least not to start I'll probably give it another episode or two to see if it gets better. My hopes aren't too high though. It's an anime adapted from a mobile game...

    Is Lee watching Platinum End with you too, and if yes then what does he think of it?

    Ousama Ranking has been really good IMO. It's an interesting story and it's really hard not to like Bojji and Kage. Check it out! I have also been keeping up with Platinum End, just 'cause I'm dumb and feel compelled to finish things after I've started them, even when they're really bad. I should probably just drop it already
