  1. Slightly frayed around the edges but the vinyl is mint. 25% off
  2. I found an original pressing of IABPOITC in my local thrift store for $3. That has to be a sign.
  3. Asking to Break Loading Tell Me Fall Back He's Been Wonderful Big Hammer I Want You to Know Night Sky Fire the Editor If You Can Hear Me Playing Robots into Heaven
  4. Read an article in the Guardian that said toilet paper might also have PFAS. Seems too be prevalent everywhere, in our water, food, soil. Here's a list of known health effects from PFAS: Reproductive effects such as decreased fertility or increased high blood pressure in pregnant women. Developmental effects or delays in children, including low birth weight, accelerated puberty, bone variations, or behavioral changes. Increased risk of some cancers, including prostate, kidney, and testicular cancers. Reduced ability of the body’s immune system to fight infections, including reduced vaccine response. Interference with the body’s natural hormones. Increased cholesterol levels and/or risk of obesity. (source: https://www.epa.gov/pfas/our-current-understanding-human-health-and-environmental-risks-pfas) There was a study not long ago that tested Australian firefighters with frequent exposure to these chemicals. They found that compared to a control group, the ones that donated plasma protein showed significant decrease in PFAS levels. https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamanetworkopen/fullarticle/2790905 Seems donating plasma can help both you and others in need of it, there's more information here: https://www.pptaglobal.org/plasma-protein-therapies In NY there is a company called Olgam that will take your plasma for about $50 per donation. A good way to make some extra bucks during this high inflation economy.
  5. Legos are awesome. I have fond memories playing with them with a friend as kids and it totally soothed my obsessive compulsive itch back then. I rarely constructed any of the official sets and I'm almost certain most of my original collection came from a dump somewhere off Shelter Island where my grandmother used to live.. so many random toys recycled for my enjoyment.. ahh those were the days.
  6. Been watching instructional videos about SuperCollider because I'd like to build custom synths for sequencing with TidalCycles eventually. Had a revelation listening to this popular instructor off YouTube (Eli Fieldsteel), that he sounds just like Tom Cruise. So now I can't help shake that feelin.. learning SC from Tom Cruise... Ha
  7. Found a tag sale at the end of my jog on Sunday and decided to peruse. I’m guessing the guy passed away recently and his family may have been trying to make some money liquidating all his items. Lotsa Jewish books, books on Israel, Architectural Digest, a couple of vintage meat grinders and a Texas Instruments typewriter along with this nice Fedora in the attic. So here I am posing with it.. RIP neighbor.

    AI Art

    https://objkt.com/profile/ganbrood/created https://www.katevassgalerie.com/ganbrood I’d like to know more about how this guy gets the results he does. I’ve read an interview where he’s mentioned StyleGAN before and I think that’s how he accomplished these realistic portraits: https://www.basuterwijk.com/gallery/portraits/G0000WVKM6MbiIAc/C0000hFAng_Rwrws The rest of his work are generative scenes and figures with a surreal retro vibe that look amazing to me. I think he curates his own photographs as part of this process, though I’m curious as to what else he does as they look distinct from the output from the stable diffusion models of AI.
  9. https://georgewestren.com/en-us I read about this guys work recently on the Guardian, he made some pretty sick opt art. How'd I imagine fractalized bar codes to appear if I was tripping hard. Maybe this belongs in that thread about chairs:
  10. "Walk Thru Water" is another generic, hip hop sounding track that for some reason hit me at the right time, they're always playing these types of songs at the Plasma donation site I frequent.
  11. I almost forgot about this album, thanks for the heads-up!
  12. 3rd one is a collab, and here's some fun my fam and I had with Krita's mirror tool:
  13. I recently discovered these guys myself and will definitely be looking forward to this one. They have allot of great tracks, one of my favorites:
  14. https://github.com/Immorpher/Bandither A nice shader to add dithering to any game and give it that "Obra Dinn" aesthetic. I had the desire to play an Arena shooter and Quake live still holds up but the graphics are kind of ugly on a 4k monitor. I'd upload screenshots but I'm at work at the moment. I was also feeling nostalgic of the Road Rash series, which somehow led me to discovering GP Bikes / MX Bikes and playing that with Soundgarden's Rusty Cage in the background. The game lacks AI but makes up for it with the physics engine. BeamNG.drive is my favorite driving sim because of its soft-body physics, but this is probably one of the better motorcycle sims available. Now I wish there was a game that could rival Wave Race in regards to water dynamics. I love when games get these things right (or as close as possible).
