|m/ Anyone seen the dog? Corona rates in the US. If it's not for sits, why is it made of warm? Possibly the first mixing table, created in 1920 by western electric with model d-86850.

Oh snap, the SNL YT channel just uploaded these:

I have been having issues with the App Store not updating things it wants to on and off for a week now. I get this "purchase failed" error when trying to update apps I own. I think Apple broke something on their back end and are only just now fixing it.

I've got a really lengthy post I need to make in here about my work with Luminar 4, which I have been putting off for months now. L4 is currently part of a bundle on HIB. It's a fun, if rather buggy app. It has helped me breath life into some mid 00s photos that I took when I knew very little.

I actually know the origin of 0xDeadBeef, my point in drawing reference to the name is that it's similar to Foobar2000 which also use a programmer term as the name for the app. FB2K is still my preferred playback app, but the OS X port is horrible. I use it on my Wintendo for playback, but also replaygain (currently RPG scanning seems to be broken on DeaDBeeF.)

Oh, man. This makes me sad. XIII is one of my favorite single player FPSes from back in the day (the early 00s was a very happy time for such things.) It had a slew of voice actors, including David Duchovny (who phoned it in, TBH) and the late, great Adam West (who absolutely nailed it.) A remake just came out and it's absolute hot garbage. Nearly as bad as the horrible WarCraft III: Reforged cash grab. I won't be buying it any time soon, possibly ever. At least there's a decent version of the original XIII on GOG.

Let's have a shitpost! I've used Vox as my light duty playback app on OSX for ages now. It supports FLACs and other formats, and scrobbles to last.fm. Unfortunately, it's devolved into SaaS and borderline spyware at this point. It now requires an account to even access the advanced options. Enter DeaDBeeF, which is FLOSSy, has a somewhat cringey name but does just about everything one might care about, right out of the box. It supports FLACs etc, has built in last.fm support, and handles replaygain (which Vox does not.) As a bonus, it lacks spyware and doesn't require an account.

Blimey.

In the parlance of our times, trying to get Reddit's RPAN fork of OBS to work with my webcam got me like

Wow. Groupees is at it again. They've got more or less the entire catalog of The Flashbulb in a bundle. $3 for a lot of it, $20 for all of it: https://groupees.com/vip18
