    own the libs at any cost. the pro putin pro russia segments of the maga chuds etc are a bizarre twist. i hope tucker gets hit w/a EU travel ban etc. anything to inconvenience him a little.

    typical car review over long drives.. i time stamped it to the end where their conclusions are.. pretty funny that the edges are super sharp and can slice vegetables.

    Interesting discussion with a doomer about doomerism. Some good questions after the talk.

    32inch LCD TVs were around $5000 for a decent brand back in 2003 or so. The tv I bought a few years ago was like $400 and it’s 50+ inches and has many more features than tvs of that era. the market for $3500 tvs today probably overlaps some with the various VR goggles that currently exist. Meaning it’s small. I can see how there’s lots of specific uses for apple goggles now in various careers. Otherwise it seems like a solution in search of a problem. High end consumer gadget that some people will really enjoy and others will hope to discover life hacks or whatever. But people who want to enter a space and mock up lighting for a performance… museum installations etc. anything where someone would benefit from seeing something in a space before they build it will probably find a way to do that with AR and VR goggles and the relevant app. This saving time and money edit: also, if say ya want to see what the Sheraton hotel in 1993 downtown New Orleans looks like on fire during Mardi Gras without actually hallucinating it then VR goggles might make that possible.

    i've seen the google tilt brush thing in their VR headset being used for immersive animation and 3D sketching to amazing results. cartoons where you go into the house and have access to rooms etc.. this gets used in interesting ways in a cartoon narrative.. so, i'm guessing immersive anime styled stuff would be pretty awesome and connect people in a deeper way to what's happening. some people anyways. also, this artist sougwen chung who works w/a robot assistant a lot.. a drawing arm she created/programmed to collaborate with.. she did some cool stuff in the google thing and then 3d printed it as sculpture which was pretty amazing. i guess, lidar type scanning and modeling things then reproducing them w/a 3d printer etc would be cool. capture a broken part, make it in the garage, fix the broken thing.. might be streamlined when the tech is there in something like this headset thinga mabob

    oh for sure.. once we get to contact lens implants like the spy in the expanse i think it'll be super cool but when will that happen if ever? who knows. but seems a good thing for certain types of work and perhaps interesting for the visually impaired. right now it's a tech gadget for most people except someone who was already needing it as a solution for something essential to their lives.

    "watching a mr. beast video on a subway platform is a pretty special experience" ugh. is it really? there's probably something cool about this thing but for everyday things walking around in a city i don't know what it offers over a smart phone other than eye protection.

    i hope the fish taping doesn't become a thing. god dammit. also, now i want to talk about DFW and Infinite Jest. can't imagine how all those long ass sentences come across in the audio book.. being read by a different voice other than the one in my head when i'm reading that book.. also, the end notes.. if it's like other books there's a little sound and then the audio changes to a different mic/eq etc setting. also, i wonder if this is just coincidence? i think it is. <a href="https://watmmrecords.bandcamp.com/album/we-are-the-music-makers-volume-one">We Are The Music Makers | Volume One by Various</a> but also.

    neutral drop is eurorack modular and waldorf MW XT doing the bell like pad thing. it is one the last things i did w/the eurorack system. so, a few years ago. weekend bugs is older and was done with battery, FM 8, and zebra all sequenced in five12 numerology. it was one of the things where the core of it was kicking around as various sequences for a long time and i'd put it on and let it run to chill out after work or whatever. so.. eek. maybe existed as a nugget like 7 or 8 years ago if not longer then finally did something with it and finished it.
