Waaaaagh! German city/town names by number of umlauts. Business in front, insurrection in the back. Beastie Boys, House of Pain and Cypress Hill 1992.

A friend of mine posted this:

Nir updated the slsk client(!): http://www.slsknet.org/news/node/3712 It fixes the broken text issues, and vastly improved legibility when using dark mode.

As much room porn as it is anything else.

Last night's show is up:

Test Tone @ Home live right now: https://mixlr.com/illuminator/

Special Saturday edition of Test Tone @ Home live right now: https://mixlr.com/illuminator/

"The subwoofer was rattling." At this point it's an audiophile trope.

Still not feeling spectacular. I've managed to polish up the set I'd been working on all week. The older I get, the more I ambient. Barring being absolutely dead, I'm going live at 10PM Eastern.

Also no show tonight. I've been feeling ill most of the week and it's showing no signs of letting up. I'll do one tomorrow if I'm feeling better.

Someone dropped off 3 bags of sugar cereal at my door this morning and I am very confused.

Blast from the past: This video was uploaded to YT over 15 years ago(!)

Both Mixlr and Mixcloud have been giving me some trouble recently. I've been updating the names and descriptions of sets on my Mixlr showreel to reflect the date and track listing. Mixcloud requires a track listing, but doesn't show it (WAT.) Here's the show from two weeks ago: I'm going to try to upload the next two later this evening. The above took 4 tries, because reasons.

I genuinely don't know what to make of this video. Bret Weinstein is a very smart dude, but he regularly goes into all sorts of kooky shit that I have great trouble stomaching. He was involved in some academic kerfuffle a number of years ago that brought him international attention and several appearances on the Joe Rogan podcast (such that it is.) His wife is also a very smart lady, but I know little about her. Bret's brother Eric, OTOH, is spooky smart. He's one of those guys that is visibly brilliant. I was sufficiently fascinated by what Eric said in a couple instances to extract the audio from YT clips and turn them into samples to play back on my radio show. (Eric is not in this video.) Bill Maher is the most Boomer Ass Boomer from Boomerstan. Bill is like a parody of every insult, jibe and accusation that younger generations throw at Baby Boomers. I don't know anyone on the left, right or center who can stand him. Bill is at least as out of his depth understanding this subject as I am. As I said, I have no idea what to make of this video. I'm going to fall back on healthy skepticism.
