Playing Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead

 Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead is an open source singleplayer rogue-like role playing game, and one could google it easily. It is purely my opinion that the game combines great game design with one of the most inaccessible UI/UX in game history. I remember my first time playing the game; I dropped an active grenade by my foot by pressing a wrong key. I like the game very much whatsoever. Not many game allows you two build your own realistic character.

And of course, my postings are delayed infinitely by the game. Please wait until I get bored of it.

Transition

I came back home to spend the summer before my graduate program. There isn't much to do besides hanging out with old friends. My music production setup sits in a storage in Chicago. Research and game development also has been delayed since March; as my desktop is also in the storage, and I don't have a good working laptop right now. Well, I can still learn languages and write blog posts, I guess. Why do I write blog posts? To share new research ideas? Yes, but I find that cause overly practical. Besides, can we justify sharing all those wild imaginations and conjectures on the internet, which already suffers from a myriad of fake news? To share my life? Sure, but why would other people find my life interesting? And even if they are interested, that is not a good sign. Good people are interested in their own lives rather than the others. The reason I think is to not repeat the mistakes of the past. I don't think history repeats itself as is, but you can still often learn fro...

New Album!

As I plan to move out from Chicago this summer, I am having a hard time putting efforts into my ongoing research projects. That is why I thought it is a good time to instead work on publishing the composition work I've done here. So yes, this is my first attempt at drawing an album cover, editing video clips, and so on. Plus my listening room is pretty dysfunctional as I am getting rid of my absorber blocks. I have to move out, after all. Despite all this, I hope the experience isn't too bad! I am releasing tracks one by one, hopefully a track every other week. Let's see how this turns out!

20250322 Athens

  After landing at Eleftherios Venizelos Airport, I hurried to retrieve my checked-in luggage. It was my last quarter at college, so I had moved out of my apartment, shipped most of my belongings through a moving company, and brought what was left with me in a small suitcase. I had done some research beforehand, so I knew I would be taking the X95 bus to get to CYA in Πανκγράτι(Pangrati). Of course, I was advised to take a taxi, but not everyone has an extra €50 to spare. The journey started with a bit of confusion, as the airport felt vast, and I was not entirely sure where to catch the bus. I went to the information desk, where the officer directed me to the bus terminal just outside the arrivals area. Once I reached the X95 stop, I saw a long line of travelers, many of whom spoke Greek (Ελληνικά). I quickly realized the X95 was a popular choice. After tapping my card (κάρτα) and paying only €6, which was a bargain compared to the taxi, I hopped on. The bus was not exactly comfor...
