Diary - Jan 13 to Jan 19 2024

Sat Jan 13 2024

Sleep 0345 to 1145 (8 hours)

  • Gaming at C3’s house. We started a bit early and did some prelim stuff for 30m before W3’s arrived. Then 90m as they took on Cave C and the Frostrager Orcs.

Sleep 0330 to 1230 (9 hours)

  • City of San Mateo Stormwater Fee measure passed. 5195 votes (51.78%) in favor, 4837 votes against.
  • Hard to tell how many voters were possible. Census doesn’t show housing units for the city. But San Mateo is 13.84% of the county population, so applying the same percentage there are about 39798 housing units in the city. Not the same as property owners but an upper bound I think. At least 25% of eligible voters voted, maybe closer to 35% or 45% Still it means that another 10% of people voting could have changed the result. But I guess you can say that of many voting measures.

Sleep 0515 to 1315 (8 hours)

  • Humble Bundle has almost all of Terry Pratchett’s Discworld novels for $18, but it’s on kobo.com so when that service dies so does access to your books. Didn’t notice that restriction until it was mentioned on rpg.net.

Sleep 0215 to 1315 (11 hours)

  • 4K Video Downloader+ now supports logging into Twitch so you can download subscriber-only VODs. They’re adding this support one service at a time whereas ViDL popped up a web view, allowed you to login, then saved the cookies and re-used them. 4K’s approach does not scale at all but I am happy they support Twitch.

Wed Jan 17 2024

Sleep 0215 to 0345, 1200 to 1700. (6-1/2 hours)

  • Miscommunication. C3 dinner canceled as Cjr had a play date. Waited half an hour then went grocery shopping.

Thu Jan 18 2024

Sleep 0030 to 0700, 1100 to 1230. (8 hours)

  • Netflix added a movie to the My List. Was wondering why but then I saw it has been re-added to Netflix today. I must have had it in My List when it went out of Netflix.

Fri Jan 19 2024

Sleep 0345 to 0930 (5-3/4 hours)

  • DDO with Dave S and Dave W. We went through the other servers to get 5 favor and the 50 DDO point reward. That gave Dave S enough to buy the first four content packs at 99 DDO points each (on sale).
