Yokojpmom's flight (ANA 183) departing from HNL on October 20, 2025 for their trip back home to Fukuoka (Honolulu - Narita - Haneda - Fukuoka).
Yolobox Ultra all-in-one multicamera video switcher, encoder, recording/streaming device that I'll be using for this IRL/travel backpack. This box is like an OBS on the go mini/portable-production device (overlays, picture-in-picture, transitions, auto source switching, audio mixing, etc). What used to require expensive/specialized equipment (to do pro shot multicamera work), can now be done with this (or the Magewell Director Mini). It can also record and stream simultaneously. This test was to simply connect a Pocket 3 via USB to simulate using it as a streaming camera. It's easy (it goes into webcam mode and automatically shows up as a camera source which can be added to your scenes) without the usual workarounds (wireless RTMP). The downside is the cost factor (something like this will be outside the budget of most). For IRL use cases, a Belabox will be the cheaper option as an encoder and for being able to bond connections (Yolobox and Director Mini require subscriptions to utilize connection bonding).

AAEmu ArcheAge 5.0.7.0 (Relics of Hiram) emulation - short in-game footage. Additional writeup of this build.
Note: this in-development AAEmu fork is supported via the projects Discord (server boost). As a result, it isn't publicly available for download like the main 1.2 development (which is much further along in terms of the game systems and main story/race quests)
ArcheAge server emulator boot - 5.0.7.0 (Relics of Hiram) September 2, 2025 build - VMWare Workstation Pro 17 virtual machine. Additional writeup of this build.

Hosting (approved by Timo) this unmuted VOD (muted music audio on Twitch) with Twitch chat (out of sync delayed for 1-1.5 minutes for at least the first hour) of BOB2025 (formerly known as BOSF or the Beppu Onsen Shower Fes) for TimoInBeppu which she live streamed on August 23, 2025 JST (her guest is her friend, Vanessa). The festival started in the morning and was held at Matogahama Park/Beppu Spa Beach. This VOD has the performances for 宮迫博之, DJ O.G（三崎優太）and Marc Panther (ex-globe).
The hotel is located on the Hilo bay front where a section of that inlet also narrows (further funneling effect) and allows such tidal fluctuations from tsunami to easily flood onto the property. Their security camera captures the rapid inundation of the drop off area (which also entered the lobby area and flooded around 10 rooms on the lower floor).
From the M8.8 Kamchatka Peninsula earthquake - tsunami inundation at a seafood plant in Severoclisk, Kuril Islands. Wave amplitude was projected to be 3-4 meters in this area.
ArcheAge 1.2 game client. Version 1.2 (October 14, 2014) is currently the main development target for this emulator. Many of the basic things have been implemented where large majority of the game can be played. I'm using the pre-compiled server build from May 2025 (the Github has more recent changes/bug fixes). There are some quests that are missing, mobs that are stacked on top of each other, achievements don't seem to work, etc, but these are minor issues.
1.2 pre-dates a lot game systems (no heroes, no hero halls, no dwarf and warborn races, no community centers, rudimentary trade, many zones still closed off, etc). Auroria is mainly the faction base area of Diamond Shores along with the Ayanad Library (the mobs inside do not aggro properly though). Mounts, pets, vehicles, ships, gliders work properly. Still cool to have an older build with the original game world where you can experience good portions of the early world of ArcheAge.
