Oh boy.</p><p><br /></p><p>Red ten years ago was an Escapist Magazine Forum Games creature who spent time after work in the city haunting a starbucks with a netbook to play Forum Games and chat on Skype. Red of 2012 was being led along by a liar in California who said she was one name and really was another, a much different kinda girl who never thought that the LDR would go places. He didn't think he'd be talking to another incredible girl, let alone living with her.<br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Red ten years ago wouldn't have thought he'd be engaged in 2022, that a gigantic war was a hair trigger away, that his career would be in shambles but that he'd have an odd peace with being a failure in his own metrics. Maybe next year will have things going right, maybe not, but work is work and life is life. My life is better with my partner now and I will work hard to keep on keeping on.</p><p><br /></p><p>No promises on big updates or whatever. I exist, I am still Redlin, I'm gonna take another stab at film work in the next year but if I end up goddamn mailman, it doesn't matter. Nothing matters but carrying on as best you can and keeping your loved ones safe!</p><p><br /></p><p>Jan 5 edit: More sober, in the New Year, less vindictive about past Red. The what could have beens and where I'd bes will always befuddle me so it's best to just move on.</p><p><br /></p><p>- Red<br /></p>Redlin5http://www.blogger.com/profile/04377198839143157850noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2268778189877474813.post-33800151933955822062022-02-26T17:58:00.001-08:002022-02-26T17:58:07.479-08:00Alive<p> Not much going on... </p><p>Life feels just like endless work with no progress honestly.</p><p>But we'll keep going on, and see what happens.</p><p>Not the most fun start to my 30s!</p><p> </p><p>-Red <br /></p>Redlin5http://www.blogger.com/profile/04377198839143157850noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2268778189877474813.post-81601402990944484562021-06-07T18:17:00.001-07:002021-06-07T18:17:23.111-07:00Minecraft Pics<p> Periodically updating this post with some of my Minecraft creations since I bought the game again for PC after years of being salty.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

The Escapist is going to hit lights off or managerial overhaul soon enough.<br />
<br />
Today I'm posting the screenshots of my friend-list for posterity. I have no doubt in my mind that most of these people have already made their peace and have forgotten all about me and the site but when you invest time and effort into a community, you take a little bit with you after it ends. Even online. So this is my little bit after it ends. I'll keep using the Redlin5 handle out in the Internet but I don't know if I'll be using the avatar again.<br />
<br />
A longer post may appear on my thoughts at a later date. This is just a placeholder, a preemptive rememberance before my ability to record it vanishes with their servers.<br />
<br />
So here they are, the names I collected with people from all over the world behind screens at the same website. What a weird thing to memorialize but hey, I'm strange. <br />

I can't say I'm sorry the current state of the place is going to get the bullet to the head or the needle in its arm by new owners. I can say I will never forget the best times and have grown because of it. I'm well and truly ready to walk away anyday, as I have been, for a long time now. Denial is over. Its dead Jim.</div>

In 2010 this was of the upmost importance because of course it was. Now its just a relic of time that could have spent otherwise.<br />

<br />
Ahem...<br />
<br />
Today's reading is from the Technobiblica; Aristophanes, Chapter IV:<br />
<hr />
And 'lo, The Lord came amongst us unannounced. A large crowd had
assembled at the meeting place, and they rained angry words upon us, and
upon Our Lord. But even then, He was unafraid.<br />
He bade us, the Technicians, to gather near to Him; and in that place, amid the shouting, He spake thusly unto us:<br />
<i>Let not these angry words bother you, my Brothers! They are but Users; they know not of what they speak.</i><br />
<i>'Tis true, thine Users shalt utter many untruths unto thee: some
shall be borne of fear; some, of ignorance; some others even from
malevolent intent.</i><br />
<i>Be not fooled by their words! My Friends, always must you hold these words unto thy heart:</i> <b><i>Trust thine users, but verify!</i></b><br />
And so was the First Commandment written: "Trust, but verify".<br />
<i>But My Lord!</i> cried one of the gathered Technicians. <i>My user claims to have backed up their data!</i><br />
The Lord smiled.<br />
<i>How many times hast the User backed up their data?</i> <b><i>Thy backups must be in triplicate,</i></b> <i>for
three is the Favored number of Thy Lord. But Thy Lord favors diversity,
so thou must store thine backups on different media, and in different
locations.</i><br />
And thus was the Second Commandment written: "Backup thrice - diversely!"<br />
The Lord continued: <i>Remember ye, thine First Commandment of which we just spake?</i><br />
<i>Trust, but verify, M'Lord?</i> answered the Disciple.<br />
<i>Indeed! Verify thine backups!</i> <b><i>For a backup that cannot be restored from is no backup at all in the eyes of Thy Lord.</i></b><br />
And so the Third Commandment was writ: "Verify your backups".<br />
<i>Lastly,</i> spake The Lord, <i>When didst thy User last backup their data?</i><br />
<i>I... I do not know,</i> spake the Technician, honestly. <i>They will not tell me. They only repeat that they know that they backed it up.</i><br />
<i>My Child,</i> spake The Lord, <i>My dear, sweet, Child...</i><br />
The Lord's eyes filled with tears, as He looked upon the Technician that
He so loved, and for a time, He could not speak. Eventually, He
composed Himself, and made to speak once more.<br />
And a great hush fell across the crowd. He drew the Technician unto His breast, and spake softly unto him: <i>You're fucked, My Son.</i><br />
He turned to address the assembled technicians once more: <i>A User
that is relied upon to backup their own data is a User with no backup at
all! Protect thy flocks from themselves; automate thy backups, so thou
art assured they occur both regularly and often! But this applies to all
important tasks;</i> <b><i>if it can be automated, then Thy Lord commandth that it shall be made so!!!</i></b><br />
And so was written the Fourth Commandment: "Automate!"<br />
And verily, the Technician that relied on the User to backup
regularly discovered that he had built his house from sand; it had worn
away to nothing at the first trouble. The Technician, so humbled before
Our Lord, cast off his disreputable ways, and so renewed in his faith
went out into the streets to repent, and to preach the ways of Our Lord
as His newest Disciple.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
This is the bible the techies abide by. There's more...<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="usertext-body may-blank-within md-container ">
<div class="md">
The
technicians had begun to disperse; the angry crowd had been quelled,
and it seemed to all that the sermon was over. But to us, the remaining
few, the Lord bade us draw near for a few more words of His Divine
wisdom.<br />
<em>Brothers!</em> He began, <em>O Brothers! I know that I must speak of this, though it brings me no joy to do so.</em><br />
We grew quiet as we listened, wary of what was to come.<br />
<em>I foresee great troubles ahead for you all. I see a time yet to
come, when Management shall dictate a Great Reorganization, and all
shall be flung into Chaos and Disarray.</em><br />
There were mutterings amongst the assembly; some whispered that it
could not happen, others that it was inevitable. The Lord paid them no
mind, and continued.<br />
<em>You may not survive the Great Reorganization; indeed, you may be
flung out into the streets! And all your good works shall be undone; and
your users will be lost to the Great Darkness.</em><br />
<em>I cannot stop this. You cannot stop this. It will happen.</em><br />
And we grew afraid.<br />
<em>My Brothers! Lift up your heavy hearts! You shall rise anew, in
new positions; with new users! And it shall be a glory such as you have
never imagined!</em><br />
And we were glad, that He had promised that our troubles would be short-lived!<br />
<em>Or rather, ye shall exult in these, the promised glories, only if
thy predecessor has followed this, the most important of all things:</em> <strong><em>Document
thy work, so that those who would follow in thine footsteps are well
guided, even in thy absence; and so that thine ass is covered when
Management is seeking out one to blame for their own unwise changes.</em></strong><br />
And so, we wrote the Fifth Holy Commandment: "Document!"<br />
And there was much rejoicing.<br />
<br />

<span id="intelliTXT">So I'm just figuring out my food situation for September. I'm endeavouring to eat healthier this year but I also need to keep enough money NOT spent on food in order to do other stuff with my student loan money.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT">So let's break down the elements of my grocery list and see where we end up shall we?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<h2 style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT"><b>Salmon - The King of the Freezer</b></span><span id="intelliTXT"><b> </b></span></h2>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT"><b> </b></span><span id="intelliTXT"><b> </b></span><span id="intelliTXT"><b> </b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT">Salmon and I get on really good terms. I enjoy it cooked stove top or in the oven and it can truly fill me up. Add to that the fact its actually one of the more healthy of the fish out there on the market and you've got a happy Redlin. In the past I've made it through lean months with two $20 a piece Salmon fillets in the freezer covering a full 30 days worth of protein meals. Not ideal but certainly better than having no meat. However, these fillets were most likely 'farmed salmon' which means they have some health detriments I don't care to deal with and come from an industry with disgusting practises. I'm on the Pacific coast and yet the market is flooded with farmed Atlantic salmon. Not cool supermarkets. And of course the labeling isn't there to know for sure unless you ask. I haven't made an effort to get Sockeye (Pacific and local) Salmon in the past but I'm going to do that now.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT">Source: http://www.thecrabshop.ca/</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT">Price - <b>To be determined when I can ask that fish-shops rates. For sake of math for now, $45</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT">Frequency - With a minimum of two fillets, I can get 6-8 Salmon servings for myself. Using October 2015 as an example month... October 5, 8, 11, 15, 18, 22, 25, 29. Four weeks at twice a week. Monday and Thursday as S-Day. That sounds accurate.<b> </b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT">Importance - Hell yes I'm having Salmon in the Freezer. Critical to Redlin success at school and its one of the few things I can cook properly. Hopefully the Sockeye variety won't be tremendously more than the farmed Salmon.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<h2 style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT"><b>Eggs </b>- <b>Breakfast, Lunch, Supper?</b></span></h2>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT">Eggs are really good. REALLY good.<b> </b>In fact, after reading a novel about Allied POW's in Japanese POW camps desperate for nutrients; I learned that Eggs can be the salvation of those living with close to nothing for loooong periods. Got to make use of these chicken eggs folks. Delicious when fried or boiled and simple enough that I can't mess them up. Got to figure on eating these daily in some form or another. </span></div>

<span id="intelliTXT">Price - <b>$7.34 for 30</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT">Frequency - 3 per day of serving gives me ten days of Eggs in a month. So without a set schedule, as long as I'm aware of what day I'm consuming those three eggs and how many are left I should be able to figure out if eating that breakfast is really necessary based on how much physical labour I'm anticipating. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT">I know I was taught this in school. Vegetables are very good in a balanced diet. Curse my tendency to avoid that aisle! However, now I'm armed with a steamer which means I would be able to steam up veggies (my preferred method) or just munch on them raw if I'm in a rush/lazy. I like Broccoli and its been described as one of those 'superfoods'. Let's just deal with it and call in my greens. I'm bad enough as it is folks, these are babysteps.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT">Alrighty, now to what I've been mainly living off of alone. Its not necessarily an evil diet but it is lacking in vital nutrients. This category will not be placed in the budget as I have reserves of these items already built up in bulk in case of no-money scenarios. Kind of like what I'm living through right now. Lets list these all together now:</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT"><b> </b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<span id="intelliTXT"><b>Spaghetti - </b>A most traditional student staple. Sometimes its great, sometimes I'm sick of it but its always there for me even when nothing else is. At $1.25 a pack and with a pack capable of lasting 4 days, and with a huge reserve of packs... Yeah, I eat a lot of this stuff when the going gets a bit tough.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT"><b>Rice </b>- The rice cooker was a recent acquisition which means rice is new in the reserve shelf. $13.00 for a huge bag and a cup of rice serves as a good filler for one meal. Don't forget to rinse Redlin!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT"> </span><span id="intelliTXT"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT"><b>Lentils - </b>Protein waiting for release. Meat substitute. Tastes like nothing but you could fool yourself into thinking it tastes like beef with a pasta sauce. Price is a bulk bin item per pound and I have no idea how to calculate that one.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT"><b>Butter - </b>A stick of butter is always in the fridge. Always. Makes spaghetti without sauce tolerable and can be melted into Popcorn bags as a treat.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT"><b>Microwave Popcorn </b>- A reserve of these bags, bought when money is available for it, can make even the longest drought of good food pass by a little faster.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT"><br /></span></div>
<h2 style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT"><b>To Drink - This one is expensive.</b></span></h2>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT"></span><span id="intelliTXT">TAP WATER TAP WATER TAP WATER TAP WATER </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT">Problem solved.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT">Okay folks lets see what the monthly damage is for this diet of mine. We'll tally up with luxuries (burrito, maximum sauce, maximum lemon) and then reduce to get the bare minimum I'd like to accept. Keep in mind this is me actually trying here to balance a month. I'm not great at it. <.<</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT"><b>Grand Total: $186.35</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT">That's a lot of money... Let's reduce that shall we?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT"><b> </b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT"><b>Redlin's Minimum: $75.03 (95.03 with ten tortilla packs tossed in)</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT">So, by going off of these approximate amounts I've plugged in (the Salmon variance is very high), I could in theory make it through a month off of 75 bucks. Wow that's far better than I expected. The grand total number isn't that bad either. Not calculated was the stick of butter I'd probably use up, nor the replacement of rice (I've got spaghetti enough to last for months). I'd probably like to have microwave popcorn for movies and the like but knowing I could get by off of 75 bucks is not a small thing to know.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT"><b> </b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT"><b>Don't put this off folks, figure out your food source</b>.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT">I don't even want to know what I've squandered in my disorganised, whatever happens happens method of the past 3 years... It's time to grow up in this department.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span id="intelliTXT">There's my thought process anyway. Probably all going out the window when I actually try to put this into practise at the start of the school year!</span></div>

<br />
Well, I'm still doing things here in 2015 too.<br />
<br />
I think I'll make a post about an Aussie I met recently sometime soon as well as my new and improved filmmaking arsenal. <br />
<br />
Thanks for sticking by me friends, I hope you're all having a good first month too!<br />
