@gwen Thanks for posting this! Great cause. Just bought the bundle! So many creative TTRPGs to read. Planning on working some of the ideas into my current Index Card RPG game. Cheers.

Last night we played our one of our favorite games. Borrowed from friends.


The Quacks of Quedlinburg.

Granted the name leaves some to be desired. But super fun.

Dabbling with some smart home stuff. Added a temperature sensor to the bathroom and a controlled outlet in the bedroom.

Sort of a follow up to this project from years ago. But this time with more off the shelf parts. https://travisshears.com/blog/sunrise/

Now when the sunsets our bedroom mood lights automatically come on.

Nothing yet with the temperature / humidity data. Perhaps a reminder to leave the door open after showering to prevent mold.

All private private and only connected to local network. No internet / cloud ☁️ needed thanks to Open Source tools: Home Assistant and Zigbee2MQTT.

Bunch of Rice-V nerds gathering here in Munich.

Also Embedded World in Nürnberg looks cool.

Such a warm winter here in Munich we can already use our balcony for breakfast in the sun. ☀️

Since we played this board game everyone is recommending the new Hogwarts Legacy video game. Don’t get me wrong it looks fun. But 75 EUR fun? I’ll keep playing Stardew Valley.

Why not make Syrniki everyday.

Since I go bouldering once a month or so every time my arms burn for half a week after.

My wife was part of a trading camp years ago and the video interview is gold.

Yum 🤤

Organizing the kitchen! New shelves house tea and coffee stuff. Label maker plus old plastic jars take care of the spices.

Working on a blog post from our trip to Mallorca and didn't want two tennis photos. Masha is joining my side of the court.

Started getting back into table top role playing games.

My last attempt at dungeon master was leading a Fate Core game. The storytelling / theater of the mind aspects were super challenging to get though with the players. Our single session didn’t turn into a campaign.

Now I’m back at it. This time with a stripped down DnD style game called Index Card RPG, ICRPG. Enthralled by the authors streamlined ideas, I did a small test session with my partner.
