Downloading games.

.

With some tinkering, and old projects set aside, plus the hardware which had just been sitting around collecting dust, this morning, I got busy.

I set up an external harddrive, and ssd, to be used for my play station, as the main game depositories and from which they would be run.  Wasn't... exactly... sure what I was doing.  Still am not.  I have both of them hooked up, and am downloading the games I wanted, initially.  Old games.  But games I liked to play and wouldn't mind revisiting, from time to time.

I am amazed at how fast they are being downloaded.  Not just games, but a lot of dlc content... bought at free.  More, it is pulling three games down at a time!  Wow.  The longest "game" was actually three games, at 85 gb, it took around an hour?  But, as mentioned, that was a trilogy of relatively modern games, and probably each game was bigger than almost any other single game.  So, that's... not fair.

There may be other games I pull down sometime in the future.  And, maybe, newer games.  No promises.  They aren't making many new games I really care to play.  Even Japanese rpg's (role playing games) have gone a bit woke for my tastes.  I guess they are preparing Japan and the Japanese young for invasion... I mean... immigration.  We'll see how well that works.

In two hours, I think it has pulled... 20 games down?  Including the three in one, plus a lot of dlc which doesn't show/count in that?  I'll check back in an half hour.  Which will be closer to three hours, if not, since I started.  Should be pretty close to done by that point.

The nice thing about having the games on the ssd is that, when the ps5 arrives, it is plug and play.  Most of those games will port, and run much faster, better, etc.  Even all the save games and such will just go with it.  Very nice.  A two for one thing, really.

Oh, and it was warming up outside.  It got up to the mid 70s while I cooked breakfast, and seemed much hotter.  But at 15:30, was just to 77?  Odd, but okay.  The way I have trimmed the house has this front room just to 74/75 (hotter near the computer), while the back of the house is just nearing 71.  Nice.  Upstairs?  I'm not sure.  I did close the upstairs, while it was 66.  Closed the downstairs up, mostly, before it hit 70.

For breakfast I had eggs, bacon, and keto pancakes.  Those were quite good.  Not as difficult as it seemed.  Not sure if those are any easier, or more difficult, than regular pancakes?  I didn't have any keto syrup, but I had no-sugar added mandarin orange cups.  I drank the juice, using the flesh for pancake topping.  Worked well.  Though whipped cream would have been nice, especially with the fruit.  Not bad, not bad at all.  I used one for egg yolk sopping, the rest were fruit laden.  It was a very good breakfast.  I'll have a t-bone in a bit.

Storm could be close in, or just missing us.  Will see before long.  It's a good day.  A bit warm, very bright, but... pretty as a picture out there.  I like it anyway.
