I guess I’m “middle aged” now even though I still feel like I’m 25 inside my brain. I’m a life long techie and geek that used to be a Systems Engineer for the Bass Pro Shops and Cabelas websites.

The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was when McDonald's gave out those coupons for free sundaes when they totally knew their stupid ice cream machine was going to be down.

Saw a clip of the Agatha series actors bragging that the show has very little CG. The magic was all…practical. Who cares? What is this obsession? CG is only an issue for the director and creative people on the movie and accountants, and if it distracts by looking unreal while watching a TV show or movie. An unhealthy focus that feels anti-VFX worker, when there’s so much VFX in media that nobody realizes. This series captures the issue: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ttG90raCNo&t=937s

@glennf they are mostly lying and are. Till using them plenty of VFC, special efffects, CGI, and whatnot. The professionals in the industry have just really good at it.

This is a great article, and I am 100% delighted by their description of me!! "Lawler has been an academic Chicken Little for years about the danger of freefalling space shit, especially in a time when space travel has been privatized and so many bored billionaires would rather spend their money playing Spaceman Spiff than, say, solving world hunger or the climate crisis"

Got two new albums on cassette!

The first is from Lauffey, and her album is “Bewitched: The Goddess Edition”. This is some great vocal jazz.

The other is the synthwave album “Cosmic” by local Vancouver artist FM Attack.

@littlesnitch I am guessing that you already know about this but Little Snitch's network filter does not work as intended once you install the Sonoma Beta. With the network filter enabled you have zero connectivity outside of localhost so that is less than ideal. :)

Having not really liked the last two or so albums I am enjoying their latest one. It's more of the original sound I enjoyed in my teenage years. Oh, and they finally miced the drums correctly! ><

I’m glad HW 3 made it into being. I’m a bit sad it was over so quickly though. I do have some awesome physical models and whatnot that can in the physical edition at least.

Looks like my Wordpress sites got hit with a login botnet. Turns out when Cloudflare upgraded their WAF it disabled all the rules til I logged in and looked at my WAF settings. I have so many lockout emails to wade through now

If you use CF please login in and check your WAF settings. :)

Welp removing Apollo from my Dock was a lot more difficult in the feels than I anticipated. I also have some Apollo merch coming now that I kept meaning to get but always got distracted from that helps ease the feels some.

I didn't anticipate mourning an App like this, I know this is a total First World Problem but Apollo really was a large part of my daily routine that I was not cognizant of. 🙃🤷🏻‍♂️

Songs I listened to so much as Napster’d 128kbps MP3s I still hear phantom compression sizzle:

  • Love Will Tear Us Apart
  • Dreams by the Cranberries
  • In Between Days
