(2024-08-05) Random (vacational) thoughts
-----------------------------------------
Well, I'm back. Kinda. Recently, I've been extremely tired, and continue to
be even when my vacation started in the middle of the previous week. The
good news are that, firstly, my solar panel setup is making a good progress
recently, secondly, I got all my retro gaming stuff back, including, but not
limited to, a modded GBA with an EZFlash Omega flashcart. So, I'm also
arranging my romsets to fit it.
If you're wondering how my titanium Certina DS Action Diver has been doing,
it's still my daily driver for now, having gained about +12 seconds per
previous month but now settling on a faster side of things, closer to +1
spd. Still not as critical but I liked the previous indication much better.
Besides, I'm planning on getting one more watch just for the design sake of
it: alas, it won't be a titanium one but everything else will be just as
nice, and its movement will be regulatable unlike this one. The PMD56,
however, is still my favorite no matter what and I still rotate it sometimes
with this Certina.
As for the recent Kaspa price drop (along with the rest of the crypto
market), I remain fully calm. For me, it's just another opportunity to buy
more for less. I haven't given up my plans to accumulate at least 100-120k
KAS and see what happens next. I'm also looking for some higher-level Python
API to create an easy to use CLI wallet for Kaspa similar to the one I
created for Tron. In the long term period, I see Monero and Kaspa as the
only two networks worth doing anything on or with right now.
Overall, I hope this 2-month vacation will allow me to regain some strength
and return to my creative path. Conserving mental health is very important
in this crazy world. That's why we all need to rest sometimes.
