Karl Olson 🎃 Ultraklystron

Track may be called "The Coda," but I promise it's the beginning of another chapter. I'm still not 100% health & hearing wise with my left ear, jaw, neck, etc. but the hyperacusis has settled enough I can cut a path forward, I think. Tell me if I'm wrong: ultraklystron.bandcamp.com/track/the-coda

This week, @vestenet.bsky.social and I run down the Umamusume concert cancelation, and why the political ramifications extend far outside that initial stable.

It's a strong reminder how little companies think of consumers with this & how unaware they are that if they can do this, everyone else can too, so no one will pay for that content. They're competing with YouTube AI slop, like this series that has been getting TV ads: www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

I've definitely been the connect between friends & classmates at tech companies to get accounts unlocked & get employee discounts on goods & it's a pattern that goes way back to the 1990s tech boom. The first Windows PC in the house had Windows because my dad had friends who worked at MS.

🎵 I got 4 on it Because 4's is my cert's key I got 4 on it Routers lack security I got 4 on it Updates stuck without a patch I got 4 on it Partners probably being sacked 🎵 No really, it's another 4 vuln, applicable to all sorts of IoT devices, firewalls & anything else using GoAhead web server:

Off rip realizing the only ones with a chance in hell: - OVA Tenchi (by series 3 he's rewriting space time & histories too, albeit not as a platonic concept.) - Madoka (& the point of that show is existing in conversation with Sailor Moon/magical girls as a whole.) So I still wouldn't bet on 'em.

Eric bauza, Walter Koenig, and now tetsuya Chiba. This weeks a heavy one, man 😔

Definitely was a Red Robin's family, barring breakfast or late night eats in my 20s, both of which was ceded to Denny's, barring being in town and thus closer to better options. Olive Garden tried to hang in there, but I don't I think finished high school before their quality slid too far.

Reminder that advertising and editorial are completely siloed from each other at ANN. I'm as disappointed as anyone else to see this on the feed.

Omg no, he was so young. Damn. He was such a talented voice actor. It’s on the mind because I literally just watched it yesterday, but he got asked to do the taken monologue as porky pig and its a masterpiece

I’m so happy that these were released and Eric was able to experience their massive success.

during the 2023 WGA strike. a real one.

wtf RIP Eric Bauza. too young!!

Not only an incredible talent, but a rare talent who also thought it was funny to just voice random memes every once in a while

Waiting for my RMT, radio is on, and I guess I just gotta just live with Beck's "Loser" being an oldies station song now, and oldies stations being 80's and 90's songs.

Watching BC election results dot m4v

I tried to make a scary video. These are the kinds of things that scare me. youtu.be/rQunWtluqLE?...

Yeah, no one is gonna use that. I vaguely humored the idea of an Oregon Trail microgeneration, as proposed for the late 70s/early 80s folks (like me) who basically never knew a world without PCs, but did know one without home internet, but that tech was unevenly distributed, so millennial fits fine.

And this, friends, is why trained editors do multiple passes before signing off on a work. If I had to hazard a guess, this is a case where someone did a straight "USA -> "US" text replace without checking for case. As a result, "Usagi" became "USgi"

She's right! HAHAHAHAHAHA! "right".

This Mega64 video is 4.5 years old, but it's repeatedly relevant. www.youtube.com/watch?v=eYPY...

since WHA is poppin, please look at this panel that helped me reframe the learning process

the computer in your pocket let's you create a expansive written, musical &/or visual work, & distribute it to the world with way fewer weird gatekeepers that you need to brown nose just to be seen. it's both awful & awesome we have direct access to the world via all mediums, but it's a net good.

Okay, definitely looking forward to @blackskyweb.xyz back porting this when they have time for it on their road. This looks actually pretty nice.
