Hi, I’m Chris

I make websites and things. Lately, I’ve been experimenting a lot with Large Language Models (colloquially known as AI) to test their capabilities and to help make my job and D&D Dungeon Mastering life easier. Feel free to click around to learn more about stuff I like to do and/or am working on.

  • teh s3quence version 1

    i’ve been listening to mike skinner’s (of the streets) “skinmixes.”  they’ve reminded me what i loved about spinning records; creating moods and the flow of one song to the next, exposing music i love, and throwing some oddball stuff in for good measure.  skinner seems to have a similar approach, which is why i dig his…

  • hulu desktop app — needs work

    i’m sure i saw it on twitter, but i don’t really remember.  at any rate, hulu has released a new desktop application for windows and mac osx.  i’m a huge fan of hulu.  this is my equivalent of television, and i am looking forward to more shows being cast on hulu.  hulu and tivo, in my…

  • mandarin america

    i get a lot of crap email.  i spend a portion of my day hitting the delete key and filtering through to the stuff that is even remotely relevant to me.  occasionally i get a few forwards from family, and occasionally it saddens me to see how ignorant and racist they are.  rather than think too…

  • she’s easy

    so, i went to the corner store near our house the other day because we were out of juice.  this is a tragic occurance in our household, one that results in much angst and screaming if we are not able to supply gavin with his beverage-of-choice.  so, gavin and i took a field trip. having…

  • writing

    so there’s a couple people in the world that know that i’m writing again.  something big.  and something that won’t end up another unfinished project that sits in my sidebar and stares at me.  it goes like this: erin reads the twilight series.  we netflix the first movie.  i am reminded of what i like about vampire…

  • now in penguin-vision

    i’ve been a longtime fan and occasional user of linux.  i had it running for about a  year as my primary operating system under ubuntu.  microsoft announced the release of their windows 7 RC-1 the other day, and as part of the announcement stated that all of their beta testers, whether you’re using win 7 beta…

  • anti spam an email address

    class=”aligncenter” so, on the web, it’s pretty much accepted that whatever you put out there can and will be used by someone somewhere, sometimes exploitively.  one way this can cause frustration and headaches is putting your email address on your site.  now, some people (including myself) have started doing this myemail @ mydomain . com…

  • spicy aztec coffee

    we’ve been out of (flavored) creamer, so i invented this.  i’ve decided it’s awesome. 2 heaping tsp Lake Champlain Spicy Aztec Hot Chocolate (if you needed to, the Allegro Mayan Drinking Chocolate that you can get from Whole Foods would probably work) Coffee (maybe slightly less than you’d usually pour into your cup) Creamer/Milk/Half & Half (i think this…

  • ben bernanke revisited

    all this swine flu crap is depressing.  that’s why i thought it was high time to resurrect ben bernanke.   you tall glass of water, spencer.  i’m going to kiss you.  on the lips.

  • random bollywood with even more random subtitles

    this comes courtesy of the engrish brog.  i hadn’t seen it before but it’s got over 12 million views, apparently, so a lot of people have.  it’s effing hi-larious.  i love bollywood.
