I recently deployed Spire Codex, a complete database for Slay the Spire 2 powered by a decompilation pipeline. It takes a C# DLL, parses 3,298 source files, resolves 14 languages, and serves it all through an API. Check it out and let me know what you think! spire-codex.com

Pretty cool that a little passion project, spire-codex.com is getting about 1K to 1.5K users unique visitors a day visiting it.

Originally I wanted to be able to view all of the content of the game for myself so I could quickly learn what Slay the Spire 2 had to offer but ended up releasing it.

Welp, I’ve been playing #slaythespire2 for a couple days, not very well must I add. I was reading a Reddit about how they decompiled the game and I got very intrigued and decided to do the same. The amount of data and assets inspired me to make spire-codex.com

Spent some time over the weekend to update ptrlrd.com figured it was time to focus on SEO and start adding content. What're ya'lls thoughts on my personal site? Too simple? API fetches to what I am currently doing too cheesy?

Return to office is the most anti-family thing, no wonder why no one wants to have kids anymore. 🙄

Not only to add that cost of daycare is more than a mortgage for some but yeesh, capitalism eats ass.

I was today's year old until I learned about usenet and how powerful it is.

It's so weird being back on IRC but it feels so familiar.

Finally got renovate fully connected and setup, now my homelab is updating itself. Peek endgame???
February 10, 2026 at 5:06 AM
This weekend has been crazy with our entire house being sick (wife,kiddo, and I) so over the past few days it was time to redo my homelab.

I was recently using portainer and gitea for deployments and handling everything but I’ve decided to say heck it and double down on k8s.

Wow @square-enix-games.com doesn't know how to keep their golden goose online. Feels awful.

I hate covid. I feel like a truck has ran over me for the past 5 days. I can deal with most symptoms but pounding headache and no taste make me sad.
July 21, 2025 at 9:34 PM
Finally fully committed to Linux. I've been daily driving Cachy for a few days and it's completely insane that I am able to play the games I want to play without any issues. What a time to be alive.
