Here’s an update on my activity on the web.
|
||
I haven’t been very active as I’ve focused more on other stuff.
|
||
|
||
I’ve started biking more, which is great.
|
||
It means I do some sport, but more importantly, it means I have a reliable
|
||
mean of transportation.
|
||
I hope I can continue avoiding getting a driving license.
|
||
I’m not convinced personal motorized means of transportation will remain for
|
||
very long, so I prefer to be prepared to live without them.
|
||
Biking is slower, but I can ride 100km a day without issue, which means it
|
||
would take just two weeks top from any two points in France.
|
||
Of course, two weeks is a worst case scenario. I could go see most of my
|
||
friends or family in less than a week.
|
||
|
||
And I continue painting miniatures, which is nice.
|
||
I feel like I’m improving.
|
||
However, I’ve already purchased too many miniatures this year.
|
||
I won’t buy any new ones, with some exceptions : if I find a cheap "Battle for
|
||
the Skull Pass" box secondhand, the future Legions Imperialis box, and if
|
||
something catches my eyes at the local gaming convention.
|
||
Then next year, I won’t buy anything until I’ve painted some more, and then I
|
||
would only get single miniatures.
|
||
|
||
## Tilde Town
|
||
|
||
I haven’t done a lot around here.
|
||
I was mostly away, but I’m coming back.
|
||
|
||
## Minis
|
||
|
||
* I’ve continued reading through the *Horus Heresy* series.
|
||
I’ve written about [Battle for the
|
||
Abyss](https://minis.kestrels-and-roses.rocks/index.php?post/2023/05/10/Battle-for-the-Abyss)
|
||
as well as read Mechanicum, though I won’t publish a review
|
||
for it.
|
||
* I’ve played my first solo game of [Space
|
||
Weirdos](https://www.wargamevault.com/product/359157/Space-Weirdos), [Patrol
|
||
on
|
||
Kabenarah](https://minis.kestrels-and-roses.rocks/index.php?post/2023/05/19/Patrouille-sur-Kabenarah).
|
||
It was quite fun, and I’ll continue this solo campaign !
|
||
* I’ve finished painting the [Penitents of
|
||
Rausch](https://minis.kestrels-and-roses.rocks/index.php?post/2023/09/07/Les-P%C3%A9nitents-de-Rausch).
|
||
I’m very happy about my paint job there !
|
||
|
||
## Computer stuff
|
||
|
||
* I’ve done some more work on the [selfhost
|
||
wiki](https://unknown-artist-selfhost.frama.io/selfhost-wiki/),
|
||
notably finishing the instructions for running a Valheim server.
|
||
* I’ve installed Calibre Web on my NAS. It was quite easy to do, although it’s
|
||
weird it requires creating a metadata file beforehand, and I had messed up
|
||
the permissions. Now I’ll be looking for an e-reader as mine broke a couple
|
||
years ago.
