Hello, I'm Haru.

I'm interested in , especially postmodern stuff. I watch a bunch of and . I'm a homebody due mostly to chronic fatigue, but it gives me time for hobbies like music, sculpture and learning various things. I watch way too much so there'll be plenty of links to videos coming in all likelihood.

Was never really that big into twitter, I'd nuked my account a couple of years ago, giving mastodon another crack after it didn't stick before, gotta replace scrolling reddit with something and this has been nice so far <3

All those #AFL footy pundits who said West Coast were the worst team they'd ever seen must be feeling a bit silly right now.

Time slows down when you approach the speed of light and when #Hawthorn are holding on to a slim lead.

(neither of which are frequent occurrences, tbf)

This is rather beautiful work from the Hawks and Lions so far in the game.

@GlenDownton They've broken the beat, but kept up the repeated opportunities for the commentators to say "scores are level"

fuzzing isn't only for the , you can fuzz your programs, too. particularly useful if your program is a programming language that is also an operating system written in the language that it hosts, like with scheme (project of the weinholt, the author of this blog)

Absolute debacle this week.

It’s boggling that capitalism actually rewards the destruction of art. Seeing Disney become the second company to delete content in the name of tax write offs is just gobsmacking. Sure, Willow was bad TV. But should it really be good for a company to put it in a wood chipper?

@vfrmedia @seamus @McKenzie_Ben Wiping over broadcast tapes and reusing them was an incredibly common practice in the 1960s and 1970s.

So much so that there's a whole Wikipedia article about the practice: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lost_television_broadcast

In Australia, Channel Seven was particularly notorious for doing this.

As a result, there's a whole heap of Australian Rules football footage from the 1980s where the only known existing copy is off the VHS tapes recorded by some guy in the outer suburbs of Melbourne:

"A chance discovery by historian Armin Richter at a trash and treasure market ... saved thousands of hours of footy history.

"At the Wantirna market in 2004 he hit the jackpot.

“'One stall had 10 tapes which had 80s football written on the spine, which I bought. I asked the seller if he had any more and he said he had picked up a bunch from hard rubbish and had more at home.'

"Richter went to the seller’s house later that day and was amazed to find there were another 160 tapes. He quickly snapped them up for $140 and headed home to find if there was anything on them of interest.

“'It was complete episodes of football shows that I had been looking for more than 15 years,' Richter recalls.

"Even better, they‘d all been taped on long play, so each tape had more than seven hours of footage. Richter now had more than 1000 hours of football replay and panel shows spanning from 1983 to 1992, his sweet spot of footy fandom."
