A few months ago, I made a backup copy of all my CDs (well, the ones I could still read), including CD-Rs of random downloaded shareware. I listed some of it on my website.
This week someone asked me if I could share my copy of Alien Detector Pro, which had apparently vanished from the internets and is a childhood memory for them.
So, now, all of you can enjoy Alien Detector Pro and see if there are aliens in your area!
Upon examination, it was confirmed that reels 1-4 of the missing silent 35 mm print entitled: Sealed Hearts, was in the cans. The original US distribution print had lasted 50 mins and been in 5 reels.
The very unknown and hard to find Japanese film "Kairei" starring Johnny Cash is available on the Internet Archive, but hardly anyone knows anything about it because there are no known commercial editions with Japanese subtitles. So I subtitled it myself with Whisper AI, and it did an incredible job. An interesting movie! Now I am trying to figure out what to do with it. Any ideas welcome.
@ixi@Holger Thanks for this. I have it as an .srt already, but putting it on opensubtitles sounds like the way to go. Will probably take a few days to make the timing of the captions more accurate, but I think I will go that route. 🙂
@Zach777 write letters. knock on doors. we can pirate all we want, but the long term fix is going to have to come from legislators. and that starts with us being loud and annoying about it. my representatives get a letter from me at least once a month about something important.
@ernie Watched this in a Cytube-style playlist-linked chatroom last night. For everyone present, Turn-On really lived up (down?) to the legend in all the important ways.
I am the owner of /s/LostMedia on squabbles.io and there is this dude who needs help identifying a song.
So on /s/LostMedia,@Jtres needed help finding this song.In his own words,he said "There was an EDM song that played all the time on the BPM station on Sirius XM in 2020-21. All I remember is that I'm pretty sure it was a female singer and it was about driving/going fast/speeding. I've tried googling it but never get anywhere. I'd be super surprised and thankful if anyone finds it!".If any of you know of a song similar to what @Jtres said along with similar details,please comment down the song name along with all of the details as it would be greatly appreciated.Also,here is the profile of @Jtres.You will see the post and can view it for yourself.
EDIT:Guys it has been found.This case of Lost Media was solved on 6,21,23 and the name of the song is Pump the Brakes by Dom Dolla.Here is the song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_q3lFjLxP7U
I downloaded these every week from The Onion long ago. They've been unavailable online for many years; even the Internet Archive was missing a lot of them. Which is a pity, because they're incredibly funny. Recently I assembled them into a single collection, filling in some of the gaps with supplements from the IA, and posted the whole collection. There are 40 files. As far as I know, this is the most complete archive available anywhere.
