Week 31, 2024


Projects

The Website

I have been adding some features to the website such as the "Documentation" feature that basically adds the ability to have subpages in a content page such as a project entry. It was made for use with MediaCow Touch 2. More about this feature was covered in the blog post: MediaCow Touch 2 - Part 4.

One feature I started to add and somewhat works is the "file viewer" feature. It is intended to show a full-size version of images on a separate page instead of including full-size images on a page which I have noticed causes browsers to slow down when viewing the MediaCow Touch 2 - Part 4 blog post and loads 32.8MB of data which could be a lot for some users. If it is absolutely needed for whatever reason, I would finish implementing it.

For the Documentation page feature, I made the page links look like the page buttons seen on the Projects and Blog pages. This was done to show descriptions of each page along with the title.

Personal

This has been an interesting week despite the ever growing, crushing pressure for the completion of MediaCow Touch 2.

Television

I finally got around to watching the Adventure Time Distant Lands series which are the first post-2020 cartoon episodes I have seen (excluding anime, that would be the later seasons of Castlevania).

To start out, I am very impressed with the quality of the four episodes. I have never seen such emotion ever delivered in any television episode or even any kind of media that I have seen in the episode "Together Again", it was absolutely beautiful and the series has gained a lot more of my respect. After watching the episode, I actually felt the need to go outside and on a drive to think about what I have just seen.

On that drive, I saw a Tesla Cybertruck in person for the first time.
