Hi there it's me Bryce. I'm back after deciding that I needed to remake my blog page that was only up for like one day. Right now I just wanted to write something quick, kinda share what I've been thinkin about what's been going on stuff like that.

Yesterday and today I had my computer running for like 30-40 straight hours just downloading all my files from Onedrive. I tried a few different ways of doing this, downloading them from the website directly to my hard drive both on my fedora and windows install, neither of these worked for some reason it always ended up corrupting the zip file or something. I'd try to extract it and it would say something like "Can't extract the zip file, it's invalid" or "it's empty", super annoying idk why it did that.

I ended up just copying and pasting things one or two folders at a time, I kind of wanted to avoid doing that because my windows partition didn't really have the space to download everything at once, so it ended up being a tedious process but it's all done now, I now have all my files saved to an external hard drive for easy transportation and it's also 5 terabytes so it's pretty future proof, and easy to transition between operating systems as well.

Me and my wife are looking into learning shorthand right now, and it seems very intimidating to me honestly, all of the learning resources we've been finding seem to be just not super great honestly. We're gonna have to do some research and find the best learning resources for it, if you know of any you should totally hit me up.

I've made a lot of progress in Elden Ring, I beat some bosses made some progress, I'm up to Maliketh now, I almost beat him the other day but died right as he had a sliver of health left, super frustrating but that's alright. I beat Mohg as well and have explored the land of shadow just a little bit, I'm excited to really dig into the dlc I haven't really yet.

Tomorrow, I am going to spend at least an hour reading dracula because I need to finish it dang it.
