But you should find me on fedi for the up-to-the-minute stuff.
Atelier suffered some damage in one of the big storms last month, so they had to close for a few weeks to make repairs. They brought back their quarantine-era weekend takeout, which we signed up for straight away.
And, yesterday was our monthly Thattu supper club delivery, so this post is a double-feature.
The team wanted to move the hostname for a static site on GitHub Pages over to being an app on AWS. We ran into a problem with AWS Certificte Manager: it didn't want to issue any certificates!
I wasn't planning on picking it up, but after watching Luetin09's Titus deep dive, I was a little interested. I wasn't feeling GW2 this weekend, so I grabbed it on Friday night and ran through the campaign.

Fat Bear Week is coming up. The info about it is scattered around a bit, so this will aggregate everything you need to know about the tournament!

I bought some Bastion Plate for my sword-n-board fighter. Two of its traits are set up properly in FoundryVTT: the saves for bulwark, and the hindering speed penalty. But that last trait, Entrench, doesn't appear to have any automation at all. What a disaster: that's a situational +1 to AC, so we definitely want to make sure it's included when NPCs are rolling to hit me, since that'll be easy to forget about.
Today is post #31 for Blaugust 2024. I've been avoiding too much blog-meta, but today is an exception to mark the occasion of victory.
I've always loved online worlds: MMOs and, more recently, live service games. I love them to the exclusion of most other types of games: if there's no persistent multiplayer world, I'm likely to bounce right off. But, in this era, a lot of these types of games ... don't love me?
A recurring, nebulously-defined magic item in our campaign is The Wangjangler. It spans time, space, and IPs to find a target, no matter where they are.
Thattu, an Indian comfort food restaurant that opened about a year ago, announced a supper club earlier this month: they'll deliver a prix fixe menu to your door on the last Tuesdays.
