When they were first blowing up, I thought sure, I’ll turn a couple old unreleased tracks of mine into NFTs. I signed up to some site I forget the name of, uploaded the tracks, and then then found out I had to pay something like $500 a track to turn them into NFTs. It was a pretty duh moment for me. Of course the content doesn’t mean shit, it’s just the money. I never paid them a dime and deleted my stuff.

Synthesizer and gym habit. The former for fun, and the latter out of necessity.

Bit by bit? The move to mobile was like getting hit in the face with an inaccessibility bat. I hate mobile OSes with a passion. Unfortunately, they’re overwhelmingly the way through which people interact with the Internet or do any kind of tech stuff anymore. I do a lot of audio work, and Android lacks even simple routing software. It just uses the last audio device plugged into it. Never mind you only want to use the mic on that and not the output. Forget using multiple devices. It’s infuriating. You’ll pry my desktop away from me through my cold, dead hands.

That’s nice.

It could be. It was a video.

Not on mobile I couldn’t. Full screen prompt for my phone number. No way out but to put it in or just close it.

Yeah, Wood Man might be my #2. Possibly Metal man, too, though.

Last time my buddy sent me a Facebook link, it wouldn’t let me view it without giving them my phone number. I did not.

Time is accelerated in your space such that you age a year for every day spent there.

Mega Man 2, Wily Stage 1: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=aTbfpkByIM8&pp=ygUdbWVnYSBtYW4gMiB3aWx5IHN0YWdlIDEgbXVzaWM%3D

Heck. Half the Mega Man 2 sound track is probably in the top ten.

If anyone is curious, I looked it up and The Guinness Book of World Records currently recognizes Rajveer Meena as the world record holder for Pi memorization. He recited 70’000 digits of Pi while blindfolded in about ten hours in 2015. I can’t even begin to understand how someone could actually do that.

It was in the fridge for 11 of those 12 hours!

My wife just threw out a ~12 hour old fried rice we doggy bagged last night that I was planning on lunching on because we “touched it with our spoons”. Sigh.

Sexy Parodius

It’s super fun to get drunk and play through. Fantastic music! Gotta MAME it, though. Unless you actually have a Sexy Parodius machine.

OMG, I just realized she looks exactly like “GIVE HIM A TICKET” lady.

Judging from responses in here, I got unlucky.

Philips Sonicare. My first two developed the same problem: some connection inside came loose and the head would be loose and rattly. I tried opening them up and fixing them, but they were too bent out of shape. My third one ( a slightly different model) is going strong for some time now, so maybe I just got unlucky.

Electric toothbrushes. They really are superior to regular old brushes, but they tend to break down after less than a year and aren’t exactly cheap. Ironically, the last time mine broke I replaced it with the cheapest one and it’s lasted longer than the ones before it. Go figure!

Phoenix Suns for me. I don’t even like basketball.

Maybe we should be trying less hard to not hurt ourselves. 😝
