My Travel and Gaming Journey –2nd Post; Finding Out I Can Use My Phone As a Game Controller

 

 

I am currently on a trip I decided to make to Massachusetts visiting one of my daughters before 2025 was done.   Yes, the cold, *dirty train and all.  And so far only a couple of hiccups, but it’s quite nice and I am glad I decided to take the trip.

But, this post is not about the trip per se; it’s about discovering that I can use my other phone as a game controller.  In all of my pared-down packing, I forgot to pack my game controller.  (I’m trying to make the processes of learning how to game and learning to code part of my routine—no matter where I am or decide to travel).

So, I had this brilliant thought.  Since I play Infinity Ops and other games on my phone, I wonder if I could use my phone as a controller for my computer… and the Googlers said—Yes.  I can.  🥳 So, I’m giving it a try.  

You pretty much load a dedicated app or program to on your phone to connect to your pc or console…and away you go!

Others have done it—so I know it works.  Here’s a link to the answers

"Gaming" And Making Videos ARE Going To Be New Hobbies!!! ✊🏾

 

"Gamer"... Designed with Copilot

Waaaay back in the day, I used to try to get good at gaming. Of course, this was well after I became an adult because there were no personal pc’s when I was a teenager, but I still felt like it was something that I needed to do…  I did not achieve that goal. lol. 

But, that old desire has made its way back around, and I think I'd like to try it again.  Since I never got good at it, I'll consider myself a Novis.   That will be my approach to providing some additional content--for your amusement and pleasure.😆😁  Twitch is a major platform that allows gamers and

The White House Looking Real Sketch After the Trump the Grifter Teardown

Have y’all seen the White House lately?   It is truly sad that one baby-man with too much time on his hands, can’t find shit else to do but cause pain and destruction.  The White House looking crazy all because he wanted to add a ballroom that nobody asked for and definitely wasn’t approved by Congress. 

It is a testament of all the weaklings surrounding him in the Republican Party.  Day by day Trump’s government demonstrates its inability to actually govern.  And that is what we need to call it from now on to distinguish it. “Trump’s GOP government” aka “Trump GOP gubment”.  Because different from other administrations, his has a distinct brand of incompetence mixed with failure.

I recognize that there is some corruption in all administrations—but the Trump GOP gubment is grossly so. It is sad to see a nation with so much potential be so cruel because of power hungry--imbecilic

Things Democrats Can Do Right Now Without Republican Help

I was just listening to a few things on social media about things happening in the political realm. It is very odd that Republicans have control over everything; and yet have the gall to say Democrats are the cause of their lack of ability to govern.  It’s you Republicans.  You are the problem of your own incompetence.

 However, the thought did come to me to me that there are things Democrats can work on even without the help of Republicans. Things Democrats can do all by themselves.

Democrats can work on how they conduct their primary elections

Democrats can work on how they treat progressives and others who they need votes from and maybe, be more of an ally than a backstabbing coworker.  If you  know you are going to need votes from people out side of the party, then act like it.  Stop chasing votes from MAGA and other Republican voters that you'll most likely never get; and recognize those who your supporters are.

Democrats can work on introducing the concept of Ranked Choice Voting

Instead of under cutting progressives or Democratic Socialists who, for some reason, want to still be in the Democrat Party, maybe consider implementing Rank Choice Voting.  That way you can clearly get a

Did you know that the Flexitarian Diet is One of the Best Diets and Way of Life?

 

I am now 61… yay.   And over the years, I’ve tried dieting and if you are like many people, you know how that goes.   Even with the weight, I didn’t look that bad, because I did do some exercise and was roughly in shape from years of exercise and training in the military.  But, weight is weight, and it made me feel heavy.  

So, I’d go on these varied eating experiments to try to lose weight with little success. I then decided to just eat what I wanted proportionately.  And, because I like fruit, like apples, cucumbers and watermelon and such, I was in good health generally.  Still a bit over weight, but not a junk food junky (anymore).  

One day I discovered information about the Flexitarian diet.  Turns out a lot of the things I was doing
