Important news! There's been a lot going on, but I'm back!
My beloved, amazing, friends how are you? It's been soo sooooo long!!!!
I am of course sorry for the lack of news. But let me explain the reasons that took me away the last couple of months,
First of... I was very burned out. Job, life, shit country, all serious problems.
I really needed a month or so doing nothing but travelling and relaxing. So I took an extra couple of weeks from mid January to mid February (when it's summer here) to completely disconnect. It was worth it.
Second... For the past 5 weeks, there's been a lot of SERIOUS energy shortages here. It has happened before (this is what you get with populism: cheap subsidized energy bills - but no energy). IT IS A DESPERATE SITUATION. the energy cuts happen almost daily, and in some cases, up to 4 days without energy supply!
Naturally, I can't work wothout power and I also can't risk having a shutdown or energy supply spikes during rendering and ruining my GPU. It is also very hard to buy a new GPUI here, again, because of populism and excesive imports limitations due to "local industry protection" (it means buy shitty local stuff twice as expensive).
Not even captions are safe, since the energy has already gone while I was working on captions, making me lose progress and again, putting my beloved PC at risk.
But as always, I have something ready. It's not much, just a small mini series, but it's a lot considering the situation and that most of thw times, everything is lost as energy goes away. It'll be a series of animated captions, and it's be called:
Glad you are back, and hope you will post the ending of CoC soon.
ReplyDeleteI want so bad to render the last pages! But until energy is more stable, I don't want to risk it.
DeleteYou forgot to put the download link.
ReplyDeleteThey will be posted tomorrow
DeleteShit happens
ReplyDeleteHey!
ReplyDeleteI hope you are better after taking your time off! Can't wait to see more of your amazing work :)
Thanks so much!
DeleteAh yes,
ReplyDelete"Why do complex calculations and research into problems with the economical situation of our country when we can just ban shit and give out totally free money that is totally not taken from the people in the first place and/or absolutely not printed on masse."
Greetings from Poland, our government is currently going down that road. What's worse is that the opposition is so fucking inept that instead of educating why that's bad, the go full sail with "WELL THEY GAVE YOU 100$?? WELL WE'RE GONNA GIVE YOU 200$. VOTE FOR US LOL".
I hope things will get better for you, take care.
Yeah, opposition is scared of being called ugly names so they offer to do twice the damage sometimes. Thanks!
DeleteWelcome Back and good luck on all fronts
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot, Ï hope it gets better fast
DeleteStuff happens and I am glad you are back, also you should post another quiz
ReplyDeleteThanks... But I can't create quizzes anymore, they are not free to make anymore :( and damn they're expensive!
Deleteén és alig várom
ReplyDeleteTudom, sajnálom, de én csak egy srác vagyok, és mindent megteszek azzal, amim van, és a való élettel :)
Deleteshame about the quizzes they were great, hopefully someone can find a free alterative again.
ReplyDeleteYeah, tons of fun to make and lots of replayability. Most sources I can find are not actually "free" just trials or they do not look as good as I wish
DeleteBest wishes!

Hey!
DeleteThanks so much for your kind words... Its been a crazy couple of years and doesn't seem to get any more normal anytime soon, doesn't it?
Thank for taking the time to comment. They are always welcome!
Lamento escuchar que esté tan complicada la situación del otro lado del charco. Me imagino que es bastante difícil así que te deseo lo mejor y muchas fuerzas.
ReplyDeletePor el tema de los cortes y disrupciones en la red eléctrica, has pensado en conseguir un UPS. Creo que no es algo tan caro y te puede salvar de algún daño permanente en tu pc. Aunque sea una batería pequeña algo que te de tiempo para cancelar lo que estés corriendo y apagar tu pc sin riesgos. Además de mantenerte seguro de cualquier suba o baja de la red eléctrica.
Nada, solo una idea, por si no lo habías considerado.
Saludos desde Uru.

Gracias amigo! Ni siquiera tenemos una rambla como tienen ustedes para refrescarnos en el rio :P,
DeleteTengo una UPS, pero esta medio vieja, no estaria mal considerar cambiarla, gracias por la sugerencia!
Bummer to hear, always worth taking care of yourself. Not sure how easy it would be to get/afford, but a personal UPS for PC (uninterruptible power supply) may be a good idea - protects the PC from surges and lets you save your work in progress when the cuts start. Might be tax deductible if you use your computer for work as well
ReplyDeleteI have one but its old, I will change it soon, thanks for the suggestion I have forgotten about how old my UPS was.
DeleteIn here you CANNOT tel he government that you use the PC for work, the deductible tax rate is very low, 102% inflation (6,6 monthly, incredible) destroys hatever money you get back, and they double the taxes you must pay. No motivation at all to go clean.
Populism = Genius
Glad your back! Hopefully fully energized:) .
