I have not heard it since the last post I made. The trombone player is back! Makes any task outside delightful. Took the trash out in a tedious cave level this time. (

SoundCloudAll mobile devices are back to iOS 18.5 with fresh setups. (Also mirrored settings for consistency 🤓)
I know it is beta, though just couldn’t do the questionable battery life day to day.
Finished Crypt Custodian late last week. Over all it was a really fun game. I was never was bored during game play. Though it was never challenging over all. Most bosses can be beat after a couple attempts without issue. Quiet a bit to explore though ending is a little disappointing.
It was fun. I played with it. Though beta life is to nerve wracking for me. I just need it to work reliably. (Been doing beta since iOS 2. Please save the “don’t use it on your daily” reply. ❤️)
One of the best shows I have seen recently. Great mix of dark comedy and drama. I enjoy Coops internal monologue aspects as well when he gives details. Season 2 is going to get very interesting.
After Season 1’s heartfelt episodes and action Season 2 comes short. This season for myself was a big disappointment. After “the event” it stops progress the rest of the five hours of television. We will see how they close this out.
To beta or not to beta?
I have more cons than pros. Though old habits die hard…
Oh man. Just realized I have a back log of reviews to share. A few things wrapped up fast on me.
I should mention that we’re running a promotion at Pika right now. In celebration of our new background image feature, we’re offering 15% off the first year of Pika Pro with the code PIKACITIES (expires June 13). I mean,
look at this good stuff!

Tiled Image Backgrounds and Why Blogging Rocks - Cartography
My first blog was about dirt biking, so there is a throughline here.
Good Enough, creators of the blogging platform Pika, which you’re reading this on right now, have added an incredible “new” feature to their platform: tiled image backgrounds. If you’re old enough to remember the nascent aesthetics of the early web, Geocities and its kin, then you may look upon these tiled backgrounds in a bit of horror. But, if you’re anything like me, you may also look at them with some nostalgic relief, since they represent a time on the internet when no one really knew...
