Looks more and more like the potato that got lost in the back of your kitchen cabinet every day.

Damnit Stamets!

…this is how I learned how many species of squirrel my state has.

Definitely got 3-4 different vintages of that in the fridge. Trying to replicate the recipe from some ingredient box that calls for a dash of this or that…

I think this calls for something stronger; corn syrup, powdered sugar, beef broth, etc.

My quotes file for email signatures could replace most modern CEOs. The major qualifications are a cool name and being over six feet tall.

It’s hard to beat a wire for realtime sound 🤓 I’ve been doing the same lately. It’s amazing how much a little bit of white noise makes.

I saw a paper years ago that attributed the accelerated cognitive decline in old age to hearing loss. Really interesting and sad, and after trying to convince my dad to try a hearing aid… I can definitely see that being a factor.

Not the wurst thing I’ve heard this week ;-)

Another solid point.

This feels like something a Python ninja could turn into a real cool visualization. Unfortunately I’m a python janitor.

Interesting… not to be a jerk, but now I want to compare foreign language films with foreign language dubs.

It would make sense that the dubs don’t really have an effects heavy mix simply because it would be more work.

Yeah… but it all goes in and out through one general purpose orifice 🤢

I really feel like the audio mixes are not intended for regular stereo speakers anymore… I pull a lot of soundtracks out in audacity for the sake of making ringtones and I almost never see a clean center channel… logically this should be dialogue and maybe some extra effects when they would be overwhelming, like an explosion, etc. but that’s not what I see.

I’m reminded of comments regarding Tenet where Nolan said something like “… you mess with the picture and nobody cares, you mess with the audio and people loose their minds.”

Hummmmmm 🤔

Closer to where Columbus sailed from then where he landed 😉

Thanks :-)

I think buying the domain came with an agreement that I would only use it to contribute to the nations cultural development or something similar… so it’s at least on my list of places to visit.

I got a .tv once… that was Thuvalia or something like that 📺

Points!

I just leave Archer running with I’m falling asleep or doing stuff around my house… one of those quotes is going on my tombstone :-)

Didn’t they make a Six Million Dollar Man episode about this exact thing?

Boofing O2 😏

Points! OMG that image will live in my head, rent free every time I order Indian food.

Hang on, you’re about to be kidnapped by aliens!

It’s not, it’s the self reporting that irks me in both cases.
