Liking to know more about the world we live in, I started a few weeks ago the Anki Deck "Ultimate Geography". It's really well done, and I'm seeing how much geography I lacked! Hugely recommended.

To celebrate, I made a new blog post: how I worked my grammar, with some programming involved.

It was my intuition for the past couple of weeks, but biking is now more popular than riding a car in Paris. So neat! Now we just have to continue to reclaim the roads and building public transit infrastructure, and it will be quite a better and quieter place.

Now for the games I played...

I would say I have two that really really stood out, which are:
- Chicory: A Colorful Tale
- Omori

But I played some other games that I quite enjoyed:
- New Pokémon Snap
- Yakuza 5
- Katamary Damacy Reroll
- Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy
- Venba
- Stray

I should also mention Jusant, but I worked on it, so that's obviously a bit different!

Okay, it's time for the thread of the things I liked a lot that I played, watched and read in 2023!

It's not ordered by favorites, but in the one in which I experienced them.

Netherlands has great infrastructure, but it has not always been the case. I found this video fascinating, because Utrecht in the 70s was very much like most of Europe today. We should strive to go faster in the transformation and making pedestrian-oriented, transit-oriented and bike-oriented cities.

I tried to crack it free of its DRM but I couldn't get a good result either. It's always so sad to see digital formats being so pathetic because of these kind of things, making the legal way so bad.

The Adobe software does not allow you to zoom (which for a comic format does not work at all on a 16:9 screen, I cannot read any text), and it often crashes when trying to... turn a page. The heck!
