I set that logo as one of the startup movies on my Steam Deck, because I am old and easily amused.

The Special Edition version of Sy Snootles.

“Jedi Rocks” rocks.

I hope it feels better soon.

Nixie tubes were replaced by the multi-segment LED displays for numbers for many of those use cases where the numerals needed to glow. Think the last four decades of clock radios, TV channel number displays after mechanical channel knobs but before they removed the bezel stuff and put it all on the screen itself, etc.

And like with the Rolling Stones, I tend to like Bob Dylan’s songs much more when it’s someone else covering them.

If you know of any specific YouTube videos that use the music you are thinking of, it might be named in that chunk of the video description which automatically identifies music used in the video. Or, failing that, you can ask the video creator.

I haven’t used a Matrix server since my short, but regrettable, stint as Lord President of Gallifrey.

You might be able to get their name from the accident’s police report.

Strange things were afoot.

They’re “cycle paths” in some places.

I’ve eaten at Popeyes Chicken restaurants three times in my life, each time at a different location, and all three of those meals gave me food poisoning.

I won’t be going back to Popeyes a fourth time, because I can take a hint.

That’s great news, thank you! It’s something I’ve been asking for since I first began using Lemmy, but there didn’t seem to be interest in implementing it. I’m very glad to see that it’s been reconsidered.

I want to be able to put alt text on an image post upload. Accessibility is cool.

It’s an Ethernet port. For some reason Apple decided <···> is the glyph to use for that.

One can also undo the curse of reposting text as a screengrabbed image file.

Support local bands. Go to their shows. Tell them they suck to their face. Unplug the bassist’s instrument cable. Demand free merch after. Get drunk as fuck in the parking lot. Fight their drummer. Support. Local. Bands.

Wherever you are!

If you hate everyone, have a snack. If everyone hates you, have a nap.

In the beginning of 12 Angry Men everything is shot from above eye-level with wide-angle lenses, giving everything the feel of more space, but as the film progresses it transitions to tighter shots with telephoto lenses from lower angles. The film gives the viewer more and more of a subconscious sense of tension and claustrophobia as the story progresses.

At least one stage adaptation of the story gave a similar effect over the course of the show by slowly tightening the lighting and having the walls of the set physically move inward, too slow for the audience to take notice but enough to subtly affect the entire atmosphere and really drive that feeling home.
