Antler was a waste of time.

Can you explain more about this. I've been curious about them, and hadn't heard anything specifically negative.

I went into boat detailing for two years after a mental health breakdown of 20 years in SysAdmin/DevOps/SRE/CTO/whatever the industry wanted to call the guy who always caught all of the balls.

It paid the bills and was a great seachange for a while for me to get my head back in check and learn boundaries of work/life balance.

I'm now back in a DevOps role the last year but things are different now. Mostly my attitude and expectations.

If you need the break, take it. The market will pick you back up when you are ready.

I agree - this is the story outline for HL2:EP3. If this is close to the truth of the projected story line, it's way too short. It wraps up HL2:EP1 and HL2:EP2 nicely but I'm going to be naive and say it's not the end of HL3.

Maybe the best move now is to just move on directly to HL3 and reference part of this released story line as flashbacks.

I can dream, right?

Valve has basically implied that this is going to be the case, since it's been too long without a release for them to continue the episodic format

Valve don't seem particularly inclined towards the HL franchise and haven't been for a long time. Do you have a source for that claim?

Code leaks in updates to some of their newer games reference "hl3": http://www.valvetime.net/threads/minor-half-life-3-reference...

> Code leaks in updates to some of their newer games reference "hl3"

My assumption has been for years that "HL3" is as much a joke inside Valve as it is outside of it.

I wish I could go back 10 years old playing with HyperCard with understanding I have now!

What's stopping you?

You've done all the hard work here, really appreciate your release that gave me a fun Saturday night!

My part took all of four hours to write, setup, deploy and post.

At this point I'm going to pull the stream down, been going 5 days now with a few crashes in Doom that are getting a little frustrating to debug.

Thanks again! This was great fun!!

God mode is now turned on without an option to turn it off.

It crashed ;-(. Made a few small changes and it's back up.
