Bloguidien rapidfire - February 2025
I'm a Team Lead and Solutions Architect during the day, lazy "Dev Sec Ops" at night with a passion for selfhosting and data privacy. Free and Open Source advocate since 2005, I sporadically write Blog or Gemlog posts and share short notes and bookmarks on my website.
Introduction
Bloguidien is a (normally) French blogging challenge that prompts a question daily. As I don’t necessary want to write a (short) post every day to answer, I select my preferred questions of the month and answer them in one post. You can read all my bloguidien response here.

All form of painting… Don’t know why, but I just do not care about any style of painting…

Not often, but who never did it even once? As far as a fun memories, I’ll keep them for myself :).

Play music, in particular the piano or violin, but never took the time to actually do so. Solfège is what always stopped me.

I’m more a manga reader than a anime watcher, but I believe the last one I watched and liked is either Kimetsu no yaiba (Demon Slayer) or Shingeki no Kyojin (Attack of the titan).
February 11th: What was the last movie you enjoyed?
I don’t watch many movies, but IIRC, The Count of Monte Cristo is the last one I enjoyed…
February 24th: The video games that left a lasting impression on you.
I would say many, but the ones I played the most:
- Final Fantasy VI
- Chrono Trigger
- Heroes of might and magic III
February 27th: What was the last game you enjoyed
The new [Factorio] expansion](https://www.factorio.com/) spage age. But it wasn’t really “new” as Factorio already existed for many years before this expansion. Other wise, I loved sea of stars as it was a true turn-based RPG that reminded me a lot Chrono trigger.
Conclusion
See you next month for another round of responses :).
