Good news! The Last of Us has been renewed for a second season!
With that last blog post I also pushed some new updates to my site. Trying to move my data out of apps/sites they don’t need to be in, I’ve added my game and Lego collection.
This project by @jsonbecker was fun to be part of and I’m looking forward to seeing the rest. I am annoyed at myself for not signing off at least one with “I have the honor to be, Your Obedient Servant, R dot Knight”
See you in 10-20 hours.
Get Mastodon Account ID from Username
Quick write up of getting your account ID for using the Mastodon API.
This also marks an interesting point me for: this is the first game that’s availabile phyiscally that’ve I’ve bought digitally.
I know that’s the way the industry is going and I held out as long as I could but I couldn’t resist this edition (which comes with a code not a disc).

If you’re working with brand logos and need SVGs or brand colors Simple Icons is ridiculously useful.
🎮 The Last of Us Part 1 arrives today, just in time for the weekend 🧟♂️
😱 🎵 New Found Glory have a new acoustic album out
Did a few more tweaks to my now page including podcast, book, and TV artwork and fixed a weird Safari-only layout bug at small sizes.

He’s so proud of himself 🙄
This was fun but slight excruciating project: Mac 30th Anniversary Icons.
68 Mac SVG icons extracted, labelled, and dated from Apple’s 30th anniversary font. If there’s any wrong ones let me know and I’ll get them fixed.
1Password have a directory of services that offer passkeys for authentication. Very cool.
I haven’t played any games in while so I’m excited to dig into The Last of Us Part 1 this weekend 🎮
Make looks like an interesting IFTTT-type thing.
New (slightly ranty) post: Everything Should Have an API: I’m Done with Closed Services:
“No more apps that aren’t part of the web. I’m done.”
Everything should have an API: adventures in trying to automate stuff.
Sophie hit a lot of the same issues I did. If anyone knows of a Podcast app with a way to get listen history easily (I’m talking RSS or a proper, documented API) please let me (and Sophie) know.
How to write an image description:
“The object is the main focus. The action describes what’s happening, usually what the object is doing. The context describes the surrounding environment.”
Found out you can keep Pebble watches working with Rebble which replaces a bunch of the web services that got shut off.
Episode 2 of The Last of Us was perfect.
As much as I’m enjoying Obsidian it’s completely untenable to me that opening a note replaces the one I already have open. Might try using VS Code instead.
