Trying to finish at least one book before I give in to the temptation to buy Roguelike Development with JavaScript based on an enthusiastic review by Matthew Hughes.

Also it’s after 1am here and I should go to bed. Just wanted to read that tab before I closed it, and now I’m all “ooh that sounds good.”

anyways goodnight

Started playing with local custom.css to tweak the Panic theme for Logseq.

I changed the default text font to OpenDyslexic and code to the Nerd Fonts version of Fantasque Sans Mono. No I’m not dyslexic — at least I’m pretty sure I’m not — but I find these friendlier and easier to read than the more severe fonts in common use. I usually install them locally on whatever device I use for ready access.

:root {
  --ls-font-family: "OpenDyslexic";
  --ls-page-text-size: 18px;
}

.extensions__code .CodeMirror {
  font-family: "FantasqueSansMono NF", monospace;
}

.content :not(pre) > code {
    font-family: "FantasqueSansMono NF", monospace;
}

Now I want to go all in and make a proper theme.

Having put about 150 hours combined into American / European Truck Simulator — for me, a very long time paying attention to the same topic — this review by Yahtzee describing Hardspace: Shipbreaker as a “Dad game” makes it sound possibly relevant to my interests.
