Selene Shepard

Posted in Personal, Culture/Games

Apparently the remaster of the original Mass Effect trilogy is soon upon us. So I want to publish some ‘source data’ for my Commander, Selene C. Shepard just to immortalize her a bit.

Name: Selene Shepard
Biography: ruthless spacer
Class: vanguard
Alignment: neutral, slightly more paragon than renegade

Her canon: (Important things about her biography)

  • Kaidan and Wrex die on Virmire

    • Wrex’s stubbornness and death lead to a general distrust for Krogans

  • Rachni Queen is saved

  • Balak is turned to the Alliance

  • One teammate is lost in the suicide mission (probably Jacob; Jack in my first playthrough)

    • For some sense of loss like in ME1

  • Collector base is destroyed

  • Genophage is sabotaged, Mordin is saved

  • Red or blue ending, never green or ‘do nothing’

Things that should be promoted to canon but they contradict some of my playthoughs:

  • Udina named councillor

    • To save Anderson from the job he doesn’t want and, frankly, Udina is not that asshole he seems on the first playthrough (except ME3)

  • Jacob dies

  • Quarians are saved, Geth are destroyed

  • Red ending with survival

New blog ready

Posted in Personal, Development/Web

Almost a year ago I scrapped my WordPress and started moving my blog to Pelican, and now it’s finally ready. Blog has been transferred and a new template has been developed, Tumblr inspired, UIkit powered, hand crafted, with dark mode using prefers-color-scheme: dark. Right for the next Christmas.

Athena is a patron goddess of IT

Posted in Culture, IT, Fun

Athena is a patron goddess of IT

  • A patron goddess of knowledge
  • A weaver. Looms were first programmable devices
  • She turned Arachna into a spider, Arachna then built the World Wide Web
  • A militant and a virgin, she has to be the patron of comment sections
  • She invented ships. Shippers, rejoice!
  • A patron of agriculture. What about your Facebook farms?
  • A daughter of Zeus, and PCs work from electricity. Is it a coincidence?
  • She invented the Trojan Horse

If your PC acts strangely, make a sacrifice to Athena
