YouTube video by Mainframe Studios ReBoot Season 1 Episode 1 - The Tearing (HD)

Ok just learned Mainframe Studios has been remastering episodes of ReBoot and uploading them to YouTube for free. www.youtube.com/watch?v=inKd...

Looking for a track I loved 20 years ago and it just…isn’t on the album anymore, on any streaming platforms, or even YouTube. Scrubbed from the internet.

Tried to rewatch one of my favourite music videos but can only find it in 240p.

It’s like a whole era I grew up with is becoming lost media.

Gonna shoot Instagram

Woke up this morning and accidentally hit the Reels icon when I went to answer a message on Instagram and was immediately met by a (likely AI) ferret screaming death metal. Reality has become parody at this point.

RiffTrax made a followup?? Totally playing this on NYE.

Is movie karaoke a thing? I can’t sing but I would totally act out movie scenes if I had the lines playing on screen.

According to my stats this was my favourite band this year. youtu.be/RyMHvjgGCgY?...

I genuinely wanted an egg salad sandwich for dinner today. From the grocery store. On brown bread. I couldn’t even wait to eat it when I got home. Sometimes I can’t explain myself to myself.

And I swear autocorrect, a basic feature of smartphones for like 15 years now, is less reliable than ever.

Two phones later and I’m not even sure what’s improved in terms of usability. Is facial recognition any faster or more secure than thumbprint? Camera’s better but I mostly use actual cameras for photography. Every new phone just feels like an obligation now instead of a cool new piece of tech.

Found my old iPhone X while packing and it felt so slim and comfortable, my thumb could easily reach across the screen without constantly having to reposition my hand. Had that phone for 5 years and it was already almost 2 years old when I got it. Peak smartphone, if I could keep using it I would.

This time I’m putting multiple such boxes in a bigger box in a self-deluded effort to convince myself I’ve consolidated the random stuff into one box.

Every time I move to a new place I fill a box with random stuff that I promise myself I’ll “deal with later” and never do.

I don’t just want to see movies that I want to see, I also want to see movies my friends want to see and I want to see them with them.

YouTube video by Thomas Flight Why AI "Art" Feels So Wrong

One of the best takes on AI and art I’ve seen yet.

Much as I despise gen AI, it forces us to examine what art is on a fundamental level, which is worthy of reflection. But the real issue is our increasingly cynical society that’s allowing art to become automated.

I miss the days when people genuinely made stupid stuff just for the hell of it. Can't even enjoy internet nonsense anymore without feeling like it was only made for engagement.

At this point I wonder if people would even care? Like if we discovered chemical evidence in the atmosphere of an exoplanet only explained by some artificial process...would it change the world or would people just shrug and go about their day?

YouTube video by The Goose The Insane Plan To Make Alberta America | The Goose 🇨🇦

Huge shocker! Turns out Alberta separatism is actually just a US-backed psy-op for oil and the people pushing it don’t actually want to be independent.

New deep dive just dropped!

Haunted house mazes I would like to see:

- Alien spaceship with abductees being dissected like Fire in the Sky
- Liminal mall playing eerie vaporwave with repeat areas so you feel like you're going in circles
- Sinking ocean liner that gets progressively steeper with water creeping up portholes.

Living in Vancouver there was virtually no difference upon exiting the theatre, save for the absence of Jared Leto which was an improvement.

You can get pretty much the same experience as Tron: Ares by putting on the NIN soundtrack and driving around the most boring parts of your city at night staring at the tail lights of other vehicles.

Ordering takeout lately:

- Check Google Maps, find a place nearby that looks good
- Menu opens in Uber Eats
- Need to update the Uber app
- Need SMS and email verification to sign in
- Signed in, ok back to Google Maps to open Uber
- Check the menu — $30/meal??
- Fuck it, I’m making rice and beans.

Love the aerobraking sequence, think that's the only time it's been depicted in a film.

Agreed should really have leaned into its premise and become more isolated and desperate. I would’ve liked a longer arc returning home though…maybe they make it to the Beta Quadrant but get captured crossing Romulan space. Some escape and get a message out to the Federation. Something like that.

Forced to rely on a private space company due to lack of funding which will soon be reduced even further to historical lows by the current administration...yeah, kind of puts a wet blanket on the whole thing.

Andrew Garfield as Eduardo Saverin in The Social Network telling Mark (MARRRRK!) to layer up because it is now autumn.

It’s that time of year again.

Found in a thread discussing the 2009 film Terminator: Salvation.

I actually found Balteus the hardest part of Armored Core 6. It felt so needlessly difficult and definitely made me consider putting it down but I found progress much more enjoyable from then on. Conversely Margit in Elden Ring made me rage quit, I just wanted to keep exploring the world.
