What is it about the presence of a hot mic or camera that makes it impossible to get a good take when playing music. 😶‍🌫️

It’s like musicianship is fucking quantum: observation changes the outcome. 😫

No joke I think you could make a fortune doing a summer camp for adults. I'd happily fall sleep on a top bunk listening to the rain on a wooden roof while we wonder which of the counselors are in love. Also, archery

For all its faults, I don't think we appreciate what a success USB has been.

I can grab a USB 1.0 mouse from the very first year of its existence - 1998! - and it'll still work on just about every single modern computer and OS.

One bad apple spoils the whole barrel
The customer is always right in matters of taste
The blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb

You keep using only part of that saying. I do not think it means what you think it means

America isn’t split evenly between Liberals and Conservatives. If it was, Conservatives wouldn’t need anti-majoritarian methods like voter suppression, gerrymandering, manipulating the Electoral College, and claiming elections are rigged.

Gosh, I wonder why Elon is singling out a man worth $7B who doesn't even crack the list of the world's top 200 richest people? What could it (((mean)))?

And now the theme song is playing in my head. And probably yours XD

God this gif is so good! I'm so proud of what @cephaccino and I did with this one. :blobuwu:

Okay yeah, I knew that the Index was gonna be more comfortable than the Quest 2 was, but I was not prepared for just how MUCH that's true. Glad I dug it back out. 😁​

C#'s autocomplete in MSVC2022 is so fucking aggressive

like okay I have a visitor class, bunch of Visit functions with overloads for each node type.
I type:
public override Node Visit

... so far so good everything's cool.

the second I add "(" to that I get this:

public override Node Visit(ArrayInitializerExprNode node)
{
return base.Visit(node);
}

it just picks the first Visit function to override and completely fills it in. Naturally it's not at all the one I was trying to fill in, so now I have to undo all that and then type it in myself anyway.

Does anyone have any idea where to turn this behavior off? I can't find it anywhere and this is driving me up the damn wall.

Engineer: I need 50 units of special exclusive tea. For reasons.
Me: alright bet, it’s not TOO too far out to the EAST INDIA TRADE COMPANY system (😳)
Station: You can have 15.
Me: okay… When will you have more?
Station: When you get back 🙃
Engineer: 🙃

why are you like this 🤣😭

Okay that is a successful surgery! The Rudder pot was acting crazy even with a 50% dead zone looked like Jim’s shootin’ hand.

I’d hoped to get it apart, but the assembly was pretty complex, so instead I used a 23g hrt needle to precisely inject some IPA under the pot cover. Twisted it to share love, then let it rest before reassembly.

Now it’s lookin like Jim’s other hand: steady as a rock.

I wanna be flying spaceships but I had to tear down my flight stick to troubleshoot an issue with the rudder axis.

Maybe tomorrow

Day one of recording, in the books 😩😮‍💨😌

Looked at a couple video clips a friend caught in the studio and I def see some room for improvement, but we’ll see how the takes all shake out in the mix! We’ve got six more recording days, or, well, nights. Scheduled this week. Plenty of time to get it all 🤌🏽
