#Windows #SysAdmin, Occasional #Coder, #DevinTownsend fan, #DarkSouls, Occasional #Guitarist, #Green, #Left. He/him.
I have a website, but I last updated it in 2008... Might do something about that.
Some #DarkSouls stuff...
I did a soul-level 1 run back in 2016, but summoned Solaire for a couple of the fights.
So, had a go in Dark Souls Remastered, doing all fights solo. Got there in the end, even though I don't normally do challenge runs. I'm not that good...
Tips for trying this:
#1 You can parry with the buckler or target shield even though you don't have the stats for them.
#2 I used the reinforced club for everything. Later on, one infused with fire, the other lightning.
Welp.
It's been well over three years, but #covid has finally caught me.
The positive line is faint, but it's there, and I have some symptoms, mild so far.
This despite precautions that many would consider unnecessary. We still mask with other people in indoor spaces, and got our boosters in early October.
#CovidIsNotOver - be careful out there.
I'm taking part in the @ucu strike action across UK universities, for fair pay & pensions, secure contracts and equality.
I work in IT - I'm not a lecturer. Many other staff are taking part in this.
It's not easy, but things really must change.
But, a picket line is more social interaction than I can handle. Instead, I've donated to the fighting funds (local and national).
If you're striking but not picketing, and can afford to, please do the same: https://www.ucu.org.uk/fightingfund
More posting of loot recently acquired.
Went to see Robin Ince doing a signing at Pritchard's Bookshop in Crosby, for his new book Bibliomaniac.
We don't have "too many" books, as there is no such thing. We do have enough that storage and shelving are serious matters though...
The new #DevinTownsend album arrived! Time for #Unboxing, now with more octopi!
If you don't know Devin's music, I would (obviously) recommend finding out, but it's hard to know where to start - he's diverse and prolific. There's a lot of rock & metal in there, but also very chilled stuff. Not many people have played Download and done an ambient soundtrack for CBeebies.
If rock/metal appeals, Empath has a bit of everything.
If not, try Ghost or Casualties of Cool.
But they're all great.
