Any time I try to find any kind of regular movie to go see with family or something, I'm reminded why I got into underground and horror movies. This crap all fucking SUCKS, man. More now than ever before. I mean, DAMN 😂

jake4480,
@jake4480@c.im avatar

@wendigo I'm just.. amazed at how little is out there. I guess I always have been. But more and more. An extreme amount now. Where's the classic weird movies like we had in the 70s, 80s, 90s, even 00s? It seems like horror only does that now. Underground stuff, Hulu, Netflix stuff.. I'm not seeing much in theaters. Maybe it's just not summer blockbuster season. I guess Furiosa, still, Godzilla. And I saw Phantom Menace re-release. So little else. Whatever Pixar's limpin to the barn with. 😂

jake4480,
@jake4480@c.im avatar

@dinozombie yeah that's definitely one. Godzilla x Kong was the first we'd seen since Mario 😂

Wait.. some people use Microsoft Edge? Who?!? 😂🤣😂

jake4480,
@jake4480@c.im avatar

@timixretroplays damn. I mean I've worked corporate jobs in all kinds of offices but have never had to use a default Microsoft browser. I guess there's a thing or two that works better in them. But a requirement.. I can't imagine 😬 I mean Chrome sucks ENOUGH 😂

jake4480,
@jake4480@c.im avatar

@rtw yeah I mean Chrome is bad enough. For work stuff maybe. But Edge is so clunky and dumb 😂

jake4480,
@jake4480@c.im avatar

@shom @timixretroplays ah geez yeah. They banned Firefox?? 🙄 but WHY

jake4480,
@jake4480@c.im avatar

@wendigo I just.. can't imagine? It's never crossed my mind people use it. I figured most people at least use Chrome at this point? Even though it sucks. 😂 I use Chrome at work. Every so often something will open in Edge. It's weird. 😂🤣😂

It’s my birthday and I opened my back door to see this gorgeous hawk hanging out. I see hawks often in the trees around my house, including a nesting pair whose arrival marks springtime for me. But I rarely get such a clear and close view, so I’m very grateful for nature’s gift to me today!

I think this pal is a red-shouldered hawk as I don’t see the RTH belly band, but I would love an ID from someone who knows SoCal birds better 😁

@quietewe first, happy birthday. And this is clearly because he knew it was your birthday, he's giving you props. hahaha

Sorry I haven't posted anything in the last few days; I need to create some more arcade-related content for the TL this weekend

Additionally, I've been working on learning NES/Famicom dev in my free time, I could also post content related to that, if there's interest

jake4480,
@jake4480@c.im avatar

@dinosaurgerms would LOVE to see NES/Famicom dev stuff!

I am furious the adorable series "Housebroken" was cancelled. Anyone with animals can spot so many adorable, real-life quirks of pets. Goddammit.

jake4480,
@jake4480@c.im avatar

@LibertyForward1 ugh. Same. I LOVE it. Finally got my wife to watch the first episode the other day and now- to watch the rest with her. But yeah. So bummed. I couldn't believe how good it was. Just amazing stuff.

Nothing personal but I think it'd be funny to see steve perry in a fisfight

jake4480,
@jake4480@c.im avatar

@BlackenedGreen I love the sound of Journey and Steve's voice but then I basically heard via a Sarah Silverman bit that he's potentially kinda racist, so... hmm haha. Yeah, let him fight 😂

Today I finally got my hands on a Big Muff pedal so that I can ape the Siamese Dream sound. Hopefully it can make up for the pain of the past few days. I now have a Super Fuzz and a Big Muff pedal so I feel I have fulfilled a teenage dream that began with Now to make some noise!

jake4480,
@jake4480@c.im avatar

@DomSathanas hahahaha oh HELLL yes. I really need something like this for my bass again, I mean, right now I just run it through a little distorted guitar amp. But I want the sound of THESE again haha

Walled social media apps, if you use em, you gotta just do it for fun. Your account WILL randomly disappear. I've had it happen on literally every walled platform I've ever used. And I don't do weird, nasty or troll stuff. You see how I post here. There's no explaining it other than all walled social media is ethereal. It's all basically useless. But that's okay! You can still use it to mess around. You just have to keep that in mind-- that your account can disappear at any second on the whim of a shitty company.

jake4480,
@jake4480@c.im avatar

@antonproitzelhaimer this is a really great point too- to show as little as you can/want - I was thinking about that. I said to "mess around" but really, to put very little of anything of real importance about your real life online for these people to find, especially in ai-world now right haha

Upset again just now about a cool LEGO based account I had for years on Instagram that they recently nuked for NO REASON.

Never trust Meta, folks!

jake4480,
@jake4480@c.im avatar

@synlogic no reason, no excuse. Just locked out, gone. I had another two accounts I got locked out of but they're still up. This one, no reason (and they never really give a reason) and poof. All gone. Can't even look up photos to screenshot. Nice, eh haha

jake4480,
@jake4480@c.im avatar

@synlogic it really is. And it's why no one should ever trust any walled service. ha!

jake4480,
@jake4480@c.im avatar

@brandonwrites exactly. It's bizarre. And I mean, ARE they any good for marketing purposes, if your account can just disappear? I firmly feel no business should even bother hahaha

jake4480,
@jake4480@c.im avatar

@ttntm it really is. And it just shows the whole weird ethereal nature of it all. It always stings a little because of time you put in, friends you met- people just have to be aware how often it happens haha

jake4480,
@jake4480@c.im avatar

@Kitty ha! It's all good. It's happened over a series of years. It's REALLY weird though. Locked out of two, one fully deleted. And I expect the same to eventually happen with my other couple. Same on TikTok. Accounts disappear for no reason. Doesn't even matter how big. I've seen all kinds of businesses complaining about it on both platforms. It's nuts. No reason/recourse often, too.

jake4480,
@jake4480@c.im avatar

@umrk yeah. It was a few months back. Sucks. Didn't even get to grab a lot of the photos, since it was like a side account, I never bothered much haha. Argh. It's gone though, c'est la vie or whatever they say haha

Happy birthday to Pete Townshend, born 79 years ago today (May 19, 1945). He is of course the guitar string smasher for the legendary Who, and is also known for how great he is at that full-arm windmilling strum thing.

@dinosaurgerms 😂 for real. You need some SLIPPERY pants. I mean, regular pants, you're gonna get severe rugburn. hahaha
