After having the ringing turn down, I am glad that the phone is not bothering me, but with it being election season here, I wonder if there will every be a day in which the elections is not between a douche and a turd sandwich.

Beat the normal final boss of DQ 11.
Only complaint is that there are still questions I have regarding the story, but since the post game is supposed be different from other titles in the series, those should be resolved.

Thanks @ArchieKun

No prob @brycec

Been quite a busy week, but I am happy to be away from home and in an environment where I am accepted for being me, and not made to suffer through guilt trips or feel manipulated into doing things.
Only sad part is that this will not last forever, as I will have to return home eventually.

Can be quite frustrating when family does not realize how much trouble it is to give access to things to family not under the same roof. Detecting cracks can be difficult with more people and set ups that are bad.

I had the same problem with one of my own online accounts. I finally had to be the grinch and change my password because they just wouldn't acknowledge the problem they were causing and cooperate on a solution.
Then I had my account locked a couple times because of too many consecutive login failures. Eventually they gave up and I got my account back but... jeez.

Created a program today that would allow me to check color contrast without needing the Internet.
Sadly, it only runs on the MacOS, due to there not being any good GUI libraries for Swift that would support Linux and Mac.

Currently frustrated with Amazon. I found out that I qualify for a discount on Prime, and when I tried to get it, I noticed a pending charge for Prime that should not have arrived until next year, but in the amount of a monthly payment, and tried to get it changed back, but could not without paying another $99 a month after the initial $99 payment.
For now, avoid Amazon if you qualify for government assistance discounts.
-
They kind of did, but I still had to cancel my membership and resubscribe to get my yearly payments back. They said they would refund me $90 and something cents, as well as the $5.99 for the charge that was immediately made immediately upon trying to get the discount, which I was mad about, aside from no yearly option for the discount.
Right now, the $90 refund came in, but not the $5.99 one.

Decided to check out Gurren Laggan, since I now have Prime, one of the only places showing it dubbed legally here. So far, things are pretty enjoyable, but not sure I can sit through all 27 episodes.
-
I finished it just a bit ago, and while the characters did get flesh out, I was done by the end. It had too many recaps (I do not want to be reminded of what I just watched when there are less than 50 episodes) and things felt like they were dragging on towards the end to the point where I did not care about the epilogue. I wish they cut all those recaps and just made the final battle an extended length episode.
-
Decided to do a test run of overlaying video over video in Premiere, and it ended up taking a lot of time.
Of course, it will be useful if I ever transition to doing video reviews.
-
Decided to do New Game+ Of Trails in the Sky and I made it to the final dungeon in only 24 or so hours of playtime, including side quests and defeating the lieutenant in Grancel Castle.
-
Decided to step down from my staff position of the forum I was on.
It will be much better to not need to worry about stuff.
-
Thanks, @Banri. I think so too, since things got a little worse after you left the place (not immediately after, but you get the idea).
Plus, I have a way to talk to those who I desire outside of it, so it is not real loss to me.
-
Decided to try out prototyping an app in Adobe XD. Not liking how Apple put together some of the assets (cannot delete some unnecessary elements that might cause confusion), but It should not be too much trouble when it is time to create the project.
-
Decided to try out the Girls' Last Tour manga, to see if it was any good, as I cannot watch the anime, and I am not really impressed with the two volumes of it I read. If you guys want to see my thoughts on it, this page lists all my reviews for the series (I probably will not go beyond volume 3 at this rate).

Did pumpkin carving yesterday, and this was the one I made. Sadly, I did not get it with the light going.

@RyePotatoes Pretty much. I wish I could put it on Kenshin's body and position it, so that it would perform Amakakeru Ryu no Hirameki.

@AniMeFReaK you can now have a head costume!

Ehh? Okay then. I can put it on my head and wear a suit to dress up as the headless someone someone. And @brycec-san the pumpkin looks amazing! Once when i tried to carve a pumpkin I ended up making horribly misshapen eyes and a mouth which looked creepier than your creepy neighbor next door!

Except for one person, I got my Christmas/Birthday shopping done. Now, I can relax.

Extremely annoyed with todays Swift lessons in the book today. They were way too, and I had to look up example code.
I guess I will have to do the lab from tonight's lesson tomorrow.
-
Finally beat all three Drustan Trials in Dragon Quest 11, and took out pretty much every super boss.
Sadly, I need to grind more to completely beat the game. Hopefully, the next set of trials are easier.
-
Finally beat Trails in the Sky SC, but I feel more infuriated rather than satisfied because the game forced my hand near the end.
-
Finally finished working through my Swift book, so I guess it is time to try making an app.
I was thinking of doing a text-based RPG, which should be very doable on my own, and help me practice the concepts I learned.
Sadly, I will have to start from scratch, due to the fact that using code I have will face obvious problems that come from stitching things together, though it still has useful data.
-
I'm (usually) happy to refactor my code, especially if what is being redone is the result of a learning process. Yes, it takes time (that sometimes I don't have), but the result is much better code overall, and it reinforces what I've learned. I also get a chance to encapsulate bits of code for later reuse, which saves time down the road, which makes it easier to find the time to refactor the next chunk of code.

Finally get a proper day to relax, so I guess I will play The Sims 3. Also, if anyone is interested, I do have a AMA thread that you can get in on if you wish, but I do not plan on starting a new , as one is enough.
-
Finally got everything I needed to do.
Things will start cropping up again in this year, but I should be able to stay on top of it.
-
Finally got through my second playthrough of dq 11, even beating Calasmos.
Sadly, I could not create the best sword in the game, but I was able to get the paths unlocked, should I choose to go about making the sword.
-
Finally got to see the fourth episode of the Ancient Magus Bride, and this is one that I am glad ended a bit differently from the manga.

Finally got to watch DBS Broly on blu ray, and something seemed to be strange.
From what I am seeing, there are two video tracks on the blu ray. One is 1 hour, 39 minutes, and 43 second long. The other is 1 hour, 41 minutes, and 25 seconds long, which matches the iTunes listing.
Both appear to be the movie itself, watchable in either Japanese or English, and I all I noticed on the shorter one was that the credits mainly consisted of the Japanese cast. Not too sure what the longer one has different.
Update: Looks like the longer track only included a list of the English cast and the BD/DVD credits who put them together. Pretty disappointing.

Finished Harmonia. I wish it was better, as nothing really stood out all that much, but it was not a waste of time at least.
