Good morning all of you lovely individuals around the #Fediverse today!

Let's start with our #MorningMoments and talk about what we all did over the weekend and what the week ahead has in store.

For me, it's busy work stuff as usual with a meeting at 12pm. Then of course, many more emails after that.

The wife and I got caught up on TV shows yesterday which was super nice so I'll likely play some more Enshrouded tonight.

@cliffwade Morning sir. Just another work week as usual. Working on a quote for a potential client right now. After work it’s just relaxing and some shows.

@beardedtechguy Morning sir! Hope it's an easy work week for you.

I'm hoping the same here, it's just super busy and very possibly will get a lot busier!

@cliffwade Thanks. Busier means faster. 😁

@cliffwade Good Morning Cliff! We watched the Great Gatsby last night. We stopped it with about 30 minutes left to finish watching it tonight. Interesting movie so far. We've got sunshine here again and I'm loving it. Had a great walk with the dogs this morning and now settling in to do some work. Several important phone calls to make today. Here's hoping they all go well.

Cheers!

@CoachMark Good morning Mark! I assume you're referring to some new version of the Great Gatsby? If so, I've not seen it. In fact, I've not watched Great Gatsby since I was forced to do so in high school 35+ years ago. LOL

Glad you had a good walk with the dogs. Always nice to get out and enjoy some fresh air.

Yes, hopefully the work stuff goes well for you and it's not too difficult of a day. Enjoy it the best you can!

@cliffwade this was the one with Leonardo DiCaprio and Toby Maguire in it - is it a Scorsese production - I'll have to look it up.

Have a great Monday, Cliff!

cliffwade,
@cliffwade@allthingstech.social avatar

@CoachMark Ah, gotcha. I remember that one being a thing now. I'm usually not a fan of Scorsese movies, but that one actually looks pretty decent. Maybe the wife and I will check it out.

CoachMark,
@CoachMark@beige.party avatar

@cliffwade Ah definitely not Scorsese - Baz Luhrmann was the director.

cliffwade,
@cliffwade@allthingstech.social avatar

@CoachMark Oh, even better then. I'll definitely mention this to the wife so we can check it out. I'm sure now that it's not school forcing me to watch it I'd be more interested in it than I was back then. LOL

@cliffwade Morning! Happy new week!

@andycarolan Good morning Andy! Hope you are doing well. I certainly hope you have an amazing week yourself.

andycarolan,

@cliffwade Thank you! I'm great thanks. Hope you're doing well too!

cliffwade,
@cliffwade@allthingstech.social avatar

@andycarolan I am doing great! Just doing the work stuff and wanting to get back to playing Enshrouded.

Anything special planned for the week ahead?

andycarolan,
@andycarolan@social.lol avatar

@cliffwade Nice! I've never heard of Enshrouded, I will look into that.

Well, mainly just work during the week, but I'm sure I will go out at some point :)

As for games, I rediscovered Downwell recently, so have been playing a lot of that lol

cliffwade,
@cliffwade@allthingstech.social avatar

@andycarolan Enshrouded just came out a week or so ago, right after Palworld. It's a survival, crafting, story mission type game. Lots of fun without full emphasis on survival/crafting.

It's in early access at the moment, so it's only like $30 USD. Super worth it in my opinion.

I've never heard of Downwell before. I'll have to take a look at it.

andycarolan,
@andycarolan@social.lol avatar

@cliffwade Ooh, that sounds interesting. I think everything that happened around that time has been overshadowed somewhat by Palworld lol.

Downwell is fun!

cliffwade,
@cliffwade@allthingstech.social avatar

@andycarolan Right at first, Palworld was certainly all the rave. Enshrouded really captured folks too. It's got really good concurrent player counts every day and is remaining consistent.

andycarolan,
@andycarolan@social.lol avatar

@cliffwade I wonder if Palworld will be a bit boom and bust.

cliffwade,
@cliffwade@allthingstech.social avatar

@andycarolan I've wondered that myself but I'm not sure if it will or not. I can see why it would be, but I can also see why it wouldn't be.

I think if the developers push out updates regularly and listen to the community then they have a good chance of it not dying off too soon.

While I don't like Pokemon in any way at all, Palworld actually looks fun and interesting to me. I've yet to buy it mainly because I'm absolutely enjoying Enshrouded so much right now.

andycarolan,
@andycarolan@social.lol avatar

@cliffwade Updates are key I think!

My son LOVES Pokémon... but personally, I have little interest in it aside from the cute art and characters lol.

@cliffwade Catching up today on work after being our Friday. One of my brothers turned 30 on Friday, so my parent's planned a surprise party. We all came into town for him Friday for a Groundhog's Day themed party. He was very surprised. Just got back home yesterday and still have just some baseline catching up to do (work, laundry, etc)

cliffwade,
@cliffwade@allthingstech.social avatar

@mdmrn Sounds like a super fun weekend for sure. Happy birthday to the brother!

Playing catchup is always fun. I'm kind of doing the same, but that's because I decided to slack off one day. LOL

mdmrn,
@mdmrn@urusai.social avatar

@cliffwade Thanks! My brother is the sweetest guy. He has some physical / intellectual disabilities and with a Groundhog's Day birthday has been obsessed with the holiday for a long time.

So, it was a Groundhog themed surprise party including a groundhog themed birthday cake for him. It was fun for everyone.

cliffwade,
@cliffwade@allthingstech.social avatar

@mdmrn That sounds super awesome. Really different to hear about people who really like that holiday. But having it as a birthday too certainly makes sense.

mdmrn,
@mdmrn@urusai.social avatar

@cliffwade Yup, exactly. My parents brought him to see Punxsutawney Phil in 2020 (just before the world shut down). After this surprise party, that's his second favorite birthday.

cliffwade,
@cliffwade@allthingstech.social avatar

@mdmrn Oh wow, that is super cool. I'd actually love to see that at some point. I can imagine it's a neat little ceremony.

vintagetech,

@cliffwade Good morning sir.

cliffwade,
@cliffwade@allthingstech.social avatar

@vintagetech Good morning Stu! Hope you are doing well today.

vintagetech,

@cliffwade Doing well as I can be. Just working at the office.
