Heard a rumor that the Jack Reacher guy is in the running for Batman, and I can't stop thinking that it's finally the right one

I still think about the main idea of windows phone, which was that it was centered the people you talk to the most, and it would eg serve you updates from that person no matter whether sms/fb/ig or whatever.

Pretty fascinating to read as this stuff becomes more relevant to the work I'm doing, especially this feature film workflow created by the filmmakers:

Great article that helped me solidify my understanding of why I might want to record at 24/96 at a minimum. 24/48 is the standard for video, but when recording artistic material I might even go 32/192. Storage/processing isn't as much of a concern these days, and even the baby audio interfaces can do that...

Just discovered Lazarvs thanks to a hot tip from my brother. Good Lord, that is aggression distilled into music.

What an epic video – I love everything about how this was shot and lit. I love that guitar cases are leaned against the amps, just zero pretension.

If you like Alice In Chains, thrash, doom, stoner, then these guys have got you.

If this is extremely your shit, allow me to recommend "The Soundtrack Show", one of the most fascinating podcasts I have ever come across, and specifically this episode: https://overcast.fm/+MBtti_Sc8

L O L when it comes to light you know it's probably been going on for years already. I'm sure we have all had experiences where we know for certain there's no other way there could be a connection other than the devices are listening.

Anchorage, Alaska, 2 weeks ago. Was there briefly for a gig, and had one afternoon to just wander around. Saw this tiny cottage embedded amongst much newer buildings and was just so intrigued. There has to be a story there… Then there were the low clouds rolling around above the inlet, and the frozen mud flats exposed by the low tide.

Yeah, I'll be keeping my home dumb as fuck.

Simon is establishing a toehold over here after being one of the unfailingly delightful accounts on Twitter.

Maps, of all sorts. Always interesting, often humorous— bound to be a bright spot on the timeline.

Give him a follow! https://mastodon.au/@simongerman600/110857160846844734
