Today's Notes 11/8/20

Good afternoon everyone...

We got Sunday off to a good start as we did a Fitness Boxing stream, where I had a near perfect session. Thankfully that involved not have to step forward, step back or step side to side. Still totally felt good, and I figured why not extend this stream a bit.... so we tossed in some Animal Crossing New Horizons and Super Mario Bros 35... and all in all, this stream lasted two hours. Not much in the way of viewership for it, but still, I do like to make sure we do one stream that features Fitness Boxing per week, so this covers that.

Yesterday being N7 Day will go down as being memorable... Donald Trump was declared the LOSER of the 2020 Presidential Election, meaning Joe Biden was the WINNER... marking the first time since 1992 that a sitting President lost an re-election.big. Think about that, Bill Clinton, George W. Bush and Barack Obama all earned 2nd terms as President. It says a lot of how sick and tired real Americans became of Trump... because let's be honest, anyone who voted for him, is not a real American, and their actions and attitudes continue to reflect that fact.

My first experience playing Mass Effect on a console was interesting, as it appears to give the player more of a handicap than one would anticipate. I'm wondering why as someone who selected the soldier skill set that I'm unable to use all four of Shepards base weapons, because on the PC version, everything could be used fairly evenly. Other differences is that a few locked doors and boxes involve a quick time event as opposed to getting things through a series of rings. Driving the MAKO is a tad harder with a controller than with the WASD keys on a keyboard.... and drawing / holstering weapons being two separate buttons makes no damn sense at all. Still it was fun and we'll continue to work our way through Mass Effect in the weeks to come.


And now for a rant.... On my desk I have a summons for Jury Service which I was supposed to deal with tomorrow.... but yesterday morning, I get a call and an email saying my date has been reschedule for Thursday the 12. Who the fuck as the US District Court thinks that anyone can just change their schedule to accommodate them?! That's why these summons are sent out, so people can plan a fucking head! Being told at basically the last minuet that the day was being switched means I am potentially endanger of losing more hours of work than anticipated. Whoever made that call needs to lose their fucking jobs.Combined that with the fact this sudden change was made relayed to me when their offices are closed, meaning I cannot call to voice my complaints! This is an outrage to say the least!

Anyway I will be streaming later today with Sunday Night Overwatch, the Halloween Event is done so we'll be mostly doing Quick Plays and Random Arcade stuff over on twitch.tv/fredcasden! See ya then!
