I'm awake, and super bored, but let's not go thru my thousands of open tabs or bookmarks for things to read. That's too much effort.
Month: May 2018
Babymetal Saturday Supplemental Music
- Distortion, by BABYMETAL: New video!
- Rob Zombie defending BABYMETAL
- Karate: Old video
- Resistance, by BABYMETAL
- World Domination, by Band-Maid: Bonus level
I just looked for the fps/ping meter in the bottom-left of my screen. Not in ESO, not on my desktop, but in the corner of my eyes.
This is such a terrible game.
Shonen Knife Saturday Music
- Alive! in Osaka, by Shonen Knife: Mostly English versions of their songs, even live in Japan. Best fucking rock band in the world.
Important sanity-preserving note: "Don't read the comments" especially applies to Haxxor Nooz, Readdat, and Stuck Underflown (anti-SEO naming). Where's the "block" button on these sites, other than just blocking the whole site? And everyone I want to block has a "score" over 10K.
Medium (neither rare nor well-done) is the poster child for why you should own your own blog-posting. They shut down custom domains so you had to use their brand. Now they've shut down any monetization except "claps" giving a few pennies from a Medium membership which nobody buys.
Trust no-one with your content!
Synthetic Thursday Music
Good Job Microsoft
Sure, it's decades late, and let's not forget the UTF-8 BOM fiasco (for those not into character encodings, there is zero purpose to a UTF-8 BOM, unlike UTF-16 which could be little-endian or big-endian).
But at this amazing rate of improvement, Windows will be usable by the year 3000!
Dear White People
Watching "Dear White People" because I want to empathize with the Kids Todayâ„¢. Cute black girl is racking up a shitload of FCC fines by saying "shit" on her college radio show. Also, reel-to-reels haven't been a thing for 30 years.
Note: I am a former college radio DJ.
"You do realize all we do is complain about things! It is as though Americans would have no identity if not for their near-constant outrage. I know so much about what you don't like, what do you all like, eh?"
"Breakfast for dinner?"
"Waller house has breakfast for dinner."
"Mm-hmm. Omelets, things like that. A good scramble, maybe avocado!"
"See, we like stuff!"
PERFECT. Racial divide bridged forever.
