This time instead of pitifully justifying my absence, I will just briefly let you know what has been devouring my time :
- I try to revise Japanese for my JLPT exam. Due to other activities this is not going well and I am probably going to fail it. Here are some cool pages that are very helpful when studying Japanese : Kanji test, Kanji reference, Japanese Word of the Day.
- I bought Toshiba M200 tablet on Ebay. Great piece of hardware and I have been secretly lusting for a tablet for a long time. I intend to use it for digital drawing and also it is small enough to carry around. I am setting it up for use, making it dual-boot with Ubuntu. This is time-consuming as hell.
- I bought iPhone. Yes, you heard that right. I have already hacked the activation lock (following this excellent tutorial), but still am struggling with hacking SIM cards and installing extra software (yay for BSD subsystem!).
- Programming a 2D game engine in SDL for a game we are working on with Bellamy, who currently is working in Japan. You have read the post about XML library - that was just one step on the way to create a full 2D alpha version of the game.
- There has been an outburst of PSP games recently : Castlevania, Silent Hill Origins, Syphon Filter : Logan's Shadow, Manhunt 2 (with the whole story behind it, including creating uncensored version).
- Also, my private life has suddenly exploded (to paraphrase Leonard Cohen). Not at all computer related, but also time-consuming.
The bottom line is that probably it will take a while for the next post to appear.
