I'm a web developer and I like video games and sci-fi and cartoons and I've watched all of Star Wars and the MCU (more than once). Also Aliens, Predator and Terminator are the trifecta of awesome imo and sometimes I don't go to work so I can play video games instead ๐Ÿ˜„

Got the Like buttons disabled if you're not logged in, and added a little tooltip on hover. Also made it so clicking on a disabled Like button takes you to the Login page, then redirects you back to the recipe you were just trying to Like once you're logged in and automatically Likes said Like โ™ฅ๏ธ๐Ÿค˜๐Ÿป #WebDev #WebDevelopment #HTML #CSS #JavaScript image

I have my next few games planned out and I'm allowing myself to take my time with them. I signed up for gamepass when it first came out and it was great for a while but I found myself playing (and abruptly stopping playing) games in the order that someone wanted me to play (and stop playing) them in. And now that I got that out of my system I'm back to just playing the games that I want to play, I have the next few mapped out. I was waiting for #Stalker2 for a long time and I'm finishing up my first playthrough now and I can't say enough about it, it's so incredible. It's just an amazing example of #videogames imo, I haven't enjoyed just getting caught up in a game this much in a long time and I probably will end up running through it again. Anyway, up next is Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 because I do love a good #RPG and some people are saying it's pretty good. And by some I mean everyone. Then it's Indiana Jones and the Great Circle because I am also an Indiana Jones fan and this game looks pretty good After that I just bought #Avowed on #PS5. Been waiting a while for this one, too, but I'm going to wait a little longer to actually play it because I have to space out the RPG's ๐Ÿ˜„ And speaking of RPG's, I recently started a couch co-op run of Baldur's Gate 3 with my youngest daughter and it's been so fun playing with her so far! She's busily finishing her bachelor's degree right now and only comes home periodically to eat yummy food and take naps. We spent probably an hour in the character creator ๐Ÿค˜๐Ÿป๐Ÿ˜ She knows literally nothing about this game but said she likes bashing stuff and I said, well, a barbarian is pretty good at that or a paladin or even a fighter. She made a Tiefling barbarian that looks cool as hell and I made a Half-orc monk. We've been playing split screen and I've more or less just been following her lead. She's been controlling (skipping) most of the dialog, deciding who comes and goes in our party and controlling the combat of the entire party excepty character. And she's GOOD AT IT!!!! ๐Ÿ˜„ It's always been fun playing games with her because she gets it, she's checking out everyone's ability wheel and seeing what they can do, and then raining fire ๐Ÿ”ฅ on our enemies haha. She runs in with the tanks and indeed starts bashing stuff, and is using the ranged/magic/other characters perfectly and it's awesome ๐Ÿ˜„ All I have to do is run in and punch stuff. And she told Astarion to piss off on first contact which I thought was hilarious ๐Ÿ˜‚ She was like "No! Get out of here! You're weird!". Didn't trust that guy. And then we found him again a few minutes later and he was like walking down the path all dejected and she walked up and made friends with him again so he's in our camp after all.

Never made an Undo button before last night and never really thought about how they work tbh. But it makes sense that if you want to be able to undo something you've deleted you'll need to save the thing you're trying to delete somewhere, at least for a little while. Turns out that somewhere is called localStorage! Or at least can be localStorage. Anyway, so now, when she clicks the Delete Recipe button on a recipe, that click actually saves a copy of the entire recipe object including the image into localStorage and then pops the delete confirmation modal. Clicking the Delete button on the modal submits the form and actually deletes the recipe from the database. And I added an Undo button on the "Recipe deleted!" success alert that re-adds the recipe from localStorage in case she gets that far on accident, and then it clears localStorage. I wasn't sure where to put the Undo button really, but I think it makes sense in the alert since it's the thing that pops up on the screen the moment she clicks Delete for real. And it's a dismissable alert that won't disappear on its own on a timer or anything, so it'll just be there if she needs it until she navigates away. #WebDev #WebDevelopment #HTML #CSS #JavaScript

Got Like buttons added to each recipe on the index page, got them appropriately boinging and incremented their z-index by 1 so they're clickable above the rest of the clickable recipe. Also made the link for seeing the ones you've Liked actually work by adding a query string called "liked" that filters the index page. Pretty happy with how they turned out overall and that's another thing checked off the To-do list ๐Ÿค˜๐Ÿป #WebDev #WebDevelopment #HTML #CSS #JavaScript

Alright I'm gonna nerd for a sec For the first time in #Stalker2 I just got a suit upgraded enough so that I now have a lead-lined slot for artifacts which means the slot itself can take the maximum amount of radiation that artifacts can give off which means I can finally use the Legendary artifact I found called Hypercube without dying ๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿค˜๐Ÿป Even I don't know what it does, but the description says it has potential applications in space navigation. And there are those weird warp things you can jump into in this one, I wonder if anything special would happen if I jumped through one while wearing it ๐Ÿค” Anyway, onward! #videogames #gamer #gamestr #streaming #PS5 https://www.youtube.com/live/La416wM1C0k

Added a little UX polish: a way for her to be able to remove any of the ingredients, seasonings or steps of instructions she's added (the little red X's) before she submits the final form in case of typos, or if she just wants to #GettingThere #WebDev #WebDevelopment image

Alright there's validation complete! ๐Ÿ˜… It turned out to be a little more complicated than just "Do the inputs have values?" because the form itself for adding recipes became more involved as I went. It now builds a full-on preview for her with bullet lists as she types, and she can add multiple ingredients, seasonings and steps of instructions before submitting the final form. So validation really became more about "Has she added at least one of everything yet?" than "Do the inputs have values?" All in all it was a bit more involved than I was expecting, but it works exactly how I want it to work now and I'm happy with the flow of adding a recipe. Plus with the validation buttoned up there's nothing left she'll be able to do to generate an actual Express error ๐Ÿค˜๐Ÿป #WebDev #WebDevelopment #HTML #CSS #JavaScript

The screens you see when you die in #Stalker2 are also somehow amazing, and for some reason I especially like the ones that say "Torn apart by mutants" ๐Ÿ˜„ A bunch of these little bastards swarmed the area right after I finished another fight and was already almost dead. Gotta keep an eye on that health meter, I did not expect them to be the thing that killed me image

No idea why it took 86 hours of playing #Stalker2 for it to occur to me to try plugging a mouse and keyboard into my #PS5, but I'm so glad it works! I don't mind using controllers, especially for 3rd person games, but I am a #PC gamer at heart and I do prefer using my actual reflexes to aim in first-person games. Mouse and keyboard ftw with no fussing, I am going to be playing this way the rest of the time. #Videogames #gamer #gamestr

Alright responsibilities done for the day, time to play! I'm running off to parts unknown in #Stalker2, just got a new suit, some night vision v2 goggles and I'm trying out a new rare artifact I found called Devil's Mushroom. #Videogames #gamer #gamestr #streaming #PS5 https://www.youtube.com/live/peMhipFKeGg

Well after lots and lots of playing I finally found something I don't like about #Stalker2! Accidentally pressed the button to move the entire contents of my stash box into my inventory which immediately made me ridiculously overburdened. And there's no "undo", but you can easily move everything (including the original contents of your inventory) back into the stash box by clicking the Move Everything button again. But if you want things back the way they were, your only option at that point is to move everything back one item at a time. I especially enjoyed moving all my 1000's of rounds of spare ammo back 30 rounds at a time. #Videogames #gamer #gamestr
