Best I can do is repeat what I said at exactly the same volume.

Someone just shelled out 1.2 million to name a porn star’s baby. $400 ain’t nothing to some people.

Man Man opening for Modest Mouse in Rochester NY. Got to watch the soundcheck and had spots on the rail. Man Man just had another energy I haven’t really seen matched by anyone.

Sigur Ros at Bonnaroo in 2008. Was a few hour gaps between shows at the stage and hung out for a few hours with people to get a good spot. Left that show to find Kanye (who was supposed to start at the same time), still hadn’t taken stage. Fell asleep waiting for him, gave up around 4AM and walked back to my tent. Think he went on around 430AM

Viagra Boys in 2022. Fun show, good crowd energy.

Arcade Fire/LCD Soundsystem/Blonde Redhead/ Les Savy Fav on Randall’s Island in 2007. Front row of 20,000+ people (that I ran to secure for our group) Met Will Butler. Was LCD Soundsystem’s last stop on the tour. Special special show.

Oh, Girl Talk at RIT sometime around 2007 or so. I’ve seen Girl Talk I think three times, but crowd energy was nuts for this one. Crowdsurfed even.

I was in the crowd with you on that one. Such a conflict, you also had Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds and Darkside a tent over.

These days gzipped tarballs or squashfs with zstd are my go-tos.

What the fuck did you just call me?

Just like their VR forays. Data mining is the business model, they’re just trying to find new ways to package it.

Come to our fire pup, we’ll treat you Laika friend.

Synthstrom Deluge. Sampler, sequencer, synthesizer, all in one and open source. Portable too, takes a 18650.

This video isn’t solely a Deluge, but you get the sorta idea of what sort of power house this thing is in the hands of a music nerd.

Gooseneck - … but I’m Shaped Like a Star

Lavurn - Song 1

Sam Gendel - Oowee

Czarface & MF DOOM - Young World

Fiery Furnaces - Single Again

Wasn’t really meant to be taken as which is worse or better.

'88 here. 9/11 sits at such a clear demarcation line for us. Happened in 8th grade where you’re still straddling the fence that’s childhood, while still capable of grasping the enormity of what was unfolding.

Though I also grew up in the rust belt, so there was always the sense that you were riding a wave that had long since crested.

He’s an emotional man, he loves his memes.

I’ll tell ya one thing, and I’m not ashamed to say it: my estimation of you as a reliable source of information has just fucking plummeted

Perhaps in the coming days you’ll notice a senator who is normally on your morning news, now he won’t do that. Maybe reporters have conversation with your elderly senator when he gets back from his fucking nonsense, he gives them the cold shoulder. And why, why is this happening?

Because thus spake Magic Dan

Old Westinghouse vent fans/ heaters in the bathrooms. Things are easily 50 years old.

Fold tech still ain’t there. Especially with regards to durability. But that’s part of the point, they need you to replace your phone on the regular.

Taxi Driver as well

One of the drawbacks he found were moisture problems inside because of the cooler temperatures, but this was in his shed. Though he’s testing more than just white paint, he’s testing daytime passive radiative paint.

I’d love a Helldivers type game where I don’t have to worry about it frying my computer. A CTD or something I can stomach, but a full system freeze? In this economy?

For all their faults Blizzard has never made a bad cinematic.
