Friendslop to replace RentEarth
Section titled “Friendslop to replace RentEarth”-
06:23PM
It might be wise for me to replace the rent earth project from unreal to godot. I am just a bit upset that all of that time was spent on the unreal project but godot seems to be easier for us in the long term. We can just drop the c plus plus and move directly with rust, that means in the future we might even flip back around and drop all of godot and go bevy directly. Replacing all of godot for bevy and faster wgpu might be the end goal for our game.
The resolver for the inverse kinematics from bevy is fabrik yet I believe the closed chain might give us a different level of performance. Furthermore we still have to do the VAT baking, that might be another shift in the time that I will spend on it, ugh. As for the i18n, the next language that we want to support is Arabic but that will require the right to left integration, so we might skip that for now.
Inverse Kinematics Robots
Section titled “Inverse Kinematics Robots”-
07:04PM
The plan for the inverse kinematics, specifically for the robots, will most likely be a combination of closed chain by nasa and my own twist and turns around it. This should give us better rig animations for the various entities that have multiple wheels, kinda like a rover. Okay the closed chain will be under the q crate, so that we can use it in the future within the friendslop game. Now I am thinking that we should prepare the steam release, we could get the game out before the end of the month. Maybe it would be wise to drop the ARPG and move it into the RentEarth, that might be worth it in the long term as well.

Thunder Thunder , Where Art Thou?
Section titled “Thunder Thunder , Where Art Thou?”-
11:00PM
The terrible storms caused massive brown outs that then ended up becoming a black out. Without any power, internet and purpose, I wrote most of these entries in the candle light. There will no be leaks about it yet, all of the content will go directly into the RareIcon.
2024
M3 Going to pick up a quicky M3 laptop today and then later on going to order a larger one for when I get back from Italy. I ended up grabbing the 16gb model for about $1300, which was basically a small percentage of my Nvidia gains xD.
Italy I am going to keep my m1 at home and take my m3 on my trip, this way I have a small laptop that I can travel around with that is extremely light weight and will be a bit more secure. Not only will I use the iCloud lock service but I wanted to use my rust based one that would operate within the active system. The rust based storage system is written to use AES encrpytion but is shared and nested with a couple different algos and loops, I also made it a bit of a pain to recover for myself, so if another person steals it, they will have a ton of a fun figuring out what each byte does. One of the keys that I used for decryption is based upon the location of the file and then there is the git crypt that I have to still plan around.
Journal
The schema for the journal configs have to be updated for the task and quotes, but before we add those, we need to create the schema to store them as well.
For the quotes schema it could just be the quote itself, footnote and the author.
As for the task, that would be a collection of tasks that can be stored as an array, with a completed boolean?
I will think through the best options tonight or tomorrow.
2023
- 10:30am - I am trying to sign up with the Oracle’s cloud plan but been running into various issues. It was a bit messy but I am thinking that I might just reach out to their support and get it resolved from their end.
- 3:27pm - Changing the main background color of the KBVE’s homepage to a nice black color. I did not change the template’s bg-default to the black because I still want to use that blue but keep it a bit higher in the layer, so that it would utilized for certain actions in the future, like the dropdowns.
- 3:58pm - I am currently looking at this Ai Hackathon and thinking that I might either form a team or look for team mates that might be interested in forming an alliance where we could work on the said projects together! I will reach out to those that might be interested and see if I can find enough people that might be down.
- 4:05pm - Let me finish up the recovery page for KBVE and then I will shift back to the pocketbase setup. I will create a couple new tickets in reference to the current issues that I want to tackle, so that we can stay organized and make it a bit easier to handle.
- 4:27pm - It seems that SendGrid is rewriting the URL’s with the brandable URL? I am not too sure what this feature is exactly but it is causing some pain points in terms of the usability. I also know that I have only 100 emails per day to send, it would be a shame if I burn through all of those just trying to figure out this mess.
- 5:49pm - I started to work on the md and mdx structure for different applications and their issues. I will isolate the notes, journals and errors into three basic folders. This will help in the future as we expand the library of information.
