I *am* an industry professional at this point so I do quote-unquote 'qualify,' but I must confess that I'm really there to savor people's hard work, ideally with less time pressure/people waiting to take turns. Extra 18,000 yen ain't small but maybe it's worth it. Games are good!!

Which part of my resume reads as 'easy mark'? Is it the part where I wrote my credit card number and security questions?

I'm not sure whether 'Dove Provider' or 'Socal White Doves' is a better band name, but one's already taken, so.

This post is at least partially about the Rolling Stone article on Sabrina Carpenter which, as is a trend with recent Rolling Stone, is good! It's a good read. They did the work. They phoned the dude from ABBA. I don't particularly have a Carpenter Opinion but I appreciate the cussin'.

5 years is crazy. Still remember seeing Necrobarista at Bitsummit 2019. Question (maybe a bit personal): have you been able to look back on your work in the game in-and-of-itself and appreciate it, or is your view on it permanently coloured by the conditions/dev process etc.?

It's a beautiful machine for sure. Definitely for editing! There's Moviola catalogs and service manuals on archive.org, but none seem to match this exact model. That's hardly definitive but the knobs do resemble older Japanese electronics. Could be locally-made? Maybe expensive to import back then?

Cf. a machine with similar 'optical/magnetic' switch is pictured in this article: www.adventdigitizing.com/about/insigh...

No expert, but given the amount of rotating parts it could be related to winding film...? The ruler on the machine could be approx. to frames of film on tape, and the speaker/sound controls could be there to check alignment of the audio track. Guessing the green button is marked 'speed/pitch'?

Spoilers I guess, but it really IS a dangerous adventure for a piece of wood. They're not fooling around here

Sorting my YT archives now that it won't let me actually *watch* anything. But how can you categorise Art like this

About 95% of my motivation for teaching myself electronics has just been for the sake of developing things that simplify fucking cable management...

I read a great zen philosophy book called 'Taming the Monkey Mind' at an overly impressionable age and grew too used to letting thoughts drift down the river w/o evaluating them or taking them in. My posts here should not be assumed to have any 'pride' behind them. Just the water wheel squeaking.

sometimes i worry that my posts make me look insane but frankly the way my brain was constructed was in anticipation of a reality that was far less psychotic than this and i'm ok w/ bucking the wavelength
