In Which November 2026 is welcomed with Christmas and more Artificial Intelligence Thoughts!

Good morning, my friend, cordial reader of this present post! Happy Sunday, and happy November!! The month building up to the best of the year! We are closer to the end of a deeply chaotic one, speaking of which, closer than not. 2025 was quite eventful, but 2026 makes 2025 looks as tepid as 2015 in comparison. As the Christmas part of the year unfolds, more and more breathe relieved, though the perspectives for 2027 are nebulous at best. October was a huge pile of anxiety. The glee of the first half of the month, where I live, turned to immense dread and resentment after the election results in Brazil. The events of such horrendous circumstance are still unfolding. I wrote it was as if the end of the Soviet Union... my more pessimistic side thinks it is more akeen to the Hungarian Spring, though. Perhaps, as Poland, we will have a anticommunist upheaval now, and reap the good rewards later. Perhaps we will have a moment of chaos before it implodes, like with the Soviet Union... the ca...

In which we talk about the Dream of Flight

Good afternoon guys! How are you today and how are things going? I do hope all is well! As for me, I'm doing well, the weather is also fine, how is yours? My classes of software graphic design are returning to presential next week, which is cool, I mean, I have to say I was enjoying a lot the online classes, but well, I suppose the things need to come back to normal at some point! I mean, things have been starting to opening up since June, May was a month of announcing things would turn to normal at some point. I hope my birthday in August 12 may be nice, as I hope August may be a pleasant month! Well, anyway, I have a dream to share with you guys! Let's jump into it, shall we?



In this dream that I remember, I was at the small court of the house of my grandparents, minding my business, at night, and I can remember having my brother there as well. Well, out of nowhere those men came flying bycicle planes, like the ones of the beginning of the 20th century, rudimentary and all that, and they invited us to fly with them, and we accepted their invite! So we went to the clouds, nothing separating us from the sky, we flew away! That's the dream, I swear the flew away part is a happy ending, not something dark or tragic. But apart from that, this is what I have to share with you guys, and to complete the post, let's also have some music! From Sid Meier's Civilization VI, we have the composer Christopher Tin with his lovely creation: Sogno di Volare!




Such a wonderful composition! One of my favorite parts of Civ VI for sure! It is up to debate if it fits with the cartoony feel of this edition of the game, but well, Civ IV had Baba Yetu... My favorite theme has to be though the Civilization V (Vanilla) one, as a bonus, I will share this one with you guys as well!




I'm extremely fond of Civ V art Deco style, never will go out of fashion, the menus and icon designs are one to survive the test of time! Anyway, lots of content in today's post! Hope you guys like it! I'm wrapping things up, wish you the best, hope things go fine in your weekend and everything! See you on the next post, and may the next post be soon!
