Chapter 200.
Honestly this should feel like an impressive milestone, Japanese web novels rarely ever make it this far…
But then you compare it to the Chinese ones and yeah.
Somehow 200 doesn’t feel that impressive.
Especially when you see the web novels in the thousands…
It’s weird how we always compare things to deflate or inflate their value isn’t it?
Is it just me, or do other people feel like 199 is just a nice number?
I am not sure why, it just feels good…
It’s round, and nice, and comfortable.
I have no idea what I am trying to convey, but it’s just a pleasing number right?
Is that a weird thing to feel about a number?
There are other nice numbers too, but they don’t feel as soft as 199…
But then “One Nine Nine” is better than “One Hundred and Ninety Nine”…
The day after tomorrow I have one of my meetings…
I hate weekly meetings.
I want them to go back to once every two weeks.
No that’s too humble.
Take them back to lockdown days where it was once a month at most, and once every six months at worst!
That was truly the highlight of my life…
Amusingly I managed to get a temporary job right after that.
For the first time in a while I am actually not sure what to write here.
It’s been a while since I had nothing at all to write about here!
Hm, nothing overly interesting in my games has happened either.
Well, I suppose in my current X4 Foundations playthrough an interesting sandbox event happened due to the dynamic AI.
The pacifist Boron race have started to invade the warrior Split patriarchy.
Should we call it preemptive diplomacy?
They are hardcoded to hate each other, so the war would have happened one way or the other, I just never expected the Boron to start the invasion…
Because the chapter title of these section is Fresh Blood Kagura I keep thinking I accidentally opened Demon Sword Maidens chapter file instead of Automata Maid’s.
It’s really throwing me off at times!
Like I double and triple check, or I accidentally think I am meant to be posting on DSM and I opened the wrong “Maid-” chapter template…
I want to move on from this! It doesn’t do my heart any good!
Through the power of sacrificing some hows of sleep…
I have made my first original mod for X4…
I have no idea if it will work, I want to sleep more than I want to test it.
Because if it is broken then I will break trying to fix it while sleep deprived.
My parents have returned from their week long camping trip.
It’s nice to have someone else in the house that isn’t my obnoxious brother again.
They passively control him by exerting influence through “people to talk to”.
My brother most likely has ADHD and he’s a nightmare…
Not in the excusable way.
He’s just really annoying when he wants to talk to you.
I opened discord on this backup browser by accident and it logged into a backup discord account I had forgotten even existed from when I was still unsure about how discord fully worked and if I would need to keep a vaguely professional looking front account for any work I might do, it only had one conversation on it and it was with a deleted user.
I have no memory of who they are, but we joked about some stuff and it seemed I knew them from another source.
A mystery for the ages!
Well it’s a shame they’re gone now whoever they were.
If all goes well then today I should receive the powered wifi adapter thingy! Hurray!
I will test it out and compare the results and see what I like more.
Worst case scenario I can just refund and return it!
Muhahahahah!
Well, that’s the entire point of the policy, no idea why I am acting evil.
This chapter is uh…
Well…
Go read it…
I had a lot of mixed feelings.
Almost as mixed as the reception to the new Final Fantasy expansion!
Wow people seem very divided over if they love or hate the replacement main character!
I think the day this chapter goes live is the day before the new Star Trek show starts airing on Netflix.
I am not sure what my plan to watch it is yet… I do not have Netflix…
That said the show is my current favourite active series of new trek so… I have to think of a way.
I want to support this one properly because it deserves it, but it’s a difficult thing to work out…
I don’t really want to get Netflix…
Maybe I can watch it with a friend?
Since this is a novel about automata you should all make sure to go support Cecilia’s debut with Hololive!
Ah wait, I just realised this might go live after her debut…
Well…
It’s the thought that counts right?
Anyway, go give that Ancient Automata some love!
If she has had her debut by the time this goes live then she should also have her first cover song out!
I wonder what it will be…
Some woman got arrested for trying to smuggle Switch games into China…
What a surreal news article that was to read…
Why would you even want to risk smuggling games into China?!
