WTF is this shit?
- You ... kind of answered your own question there, moldy!Continuity
- My ~6 kid watches 'Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures' and it pains me. She found it herself, so it's her thing and I support her in it, but... SW is for kids.Nairn
- Always was.Nairn
- We did watch SW EPs IV, V & VI over xmas, so I'm trying.Nairn
- space gooniesmonNom
- Totally space goonies. Pilot was full of action but my 7 year old thought it was a bit intense and it was.monospaced
- Yup, Goonies in space and I loved it!Akagiyama
- Ach, it is what it is. SW for Kids, yes! Definitely Space Goonies - there was even a waterslide scene. The soundtrack had a lot ofmicrokorg
- kind of goonie/80s suspence/mystery synth keys. My 5 & 7yo digged it. I watched along. The storyline skips along very fast.microkorg
- Did you spot someone from Trainspotting?microkorg
- Second best Star Wars series after Mandalorian. There I said it._niko
- ^ Tch.
Andor?Continuity - I know, but to my defence I haven't seen it yet!_niko
- Too Woke & DEI for the MAGA to watch..utopian
- Final episode was good, lots going on, epicprophetone
- Andor's a great show that just happens to be SW.garbage
- Andor is very removed from anything else in Star Wars.CyBrainX
- This show is so annoying, even if it didn't have Jude Law.CyBrainX
- Oh totally the synth music was straight up from Neverending Story. They know what they’re doing.monospaced

I finally captured actual footage of Ziggy & Sylvester play fighting - they do this all the time but as soon as I pick up my phone to film them doing it they stop, so smart! (well Sylvester is)

Everything is so fucking tiring.
Our political and business "leaders" have just turned into internet trolls...just a giant pissing contest to see who has the bigger ego.
If you have even a slightly wired existence, it's impossible to ignore. Fuck them all.
- Probably should have put in the signs your getting old thread...even the title of that triggers me.BusterBoy
- I'm so tired of it too that I want to be offline as much as possible.ephix
- That's how I feel when I visit Instagram Facebook comment section totally took over Instagram. Instagram is shit nowYakuZoku
- Meanwhile YouTube got all positive n shitYakuZoku
- I feel you. Because of our jobs we can't be disconnected, but the truth is that it burns, and a lot.OBBTKN
- Totally agree. My GF had a go at me the other week for trolling people online for their stupid views so had to stop.Ianbolton

When I use ChatGPT for coding the art tools I've been making since last year, there are times it seems to have an "off night" and it just doesn't get things right after multiple prompt updates. I find myself wanting to scold it like a child that isn't listening. It's so weird. LOL
- No clue why people still use closed models when DeepSeek R1 is available. It simply works great!grafician
- Haha, you scold children for not listening? Brutal!! ;-) What art tools you been making buddy?Ianbolton
- or when it simply forgets you'd asked it to do something previously and it omits it from the latest code.microkorg
- and when you remind it, it's all apologetic haha.microkorg

I'm looking for an old video, I guess from 2010 or even older:
It shows the analogy of a good idea being made bad by feedback and client input, using a person being made up into a clown.Can anyone remember it?
And knows where I can find it? I can only find make-up tutorials on youtube...

Re: Everything is so fucking tiring.
After Thanksgiving I stopped checking in with the news.
There's been a considerable amount of more time available to think about what I want to think about. Unless you're required to watch the spectacle, turn away. Thank yourself for it later.
- Turn on, tune in, drop out_niko
- we can all do with some unplugging and enjoying life._niko
- Yep it is a good way to be. just remember that when they come for you or it comes for you, don’t expect anyone to care about your plightnb
- They won’t anyway, so you’re good. I mean, most of us “care” to the extent of getting outraged on our screens... no action.nb
- But when your house burns down or your government comes to take away your rights...thoughts and prayers have no value, anyway.nb
- I'm lovin' it!palimpsest
- I also am on a media diet, and man is it great. Even in better times the new's angle is "everything is horrible". Drives engagementrobotinc
- 100% @canoe; this is the way...ideaist

- when the ground shook this morning and my pets and I all hopped up together <3PonyBoy
- when i was at inner peace...neverscared

Had an uncle (my moms brother) die unexpectedly overnight.
He was a wild man through life, never really "took off" in life / failure to launch.
Drugs, booze, etc. etc. etc.
Heart attack.
NOT unexpected, BUT start to think about NOT making an effort to see him more, have him over for family meals these last few years, etc. etc. etc.
Just another perspective on time, family, life, etc. etc. etc. on a cool Canadian Monday morning.
I'm trying to practise awareness more these days and perhaps this is a note for you to do the same as time passes.
XO to you and yours.
- 66 years old SOOO again, NOT unexpected AND (generally) an age where this type of lifestyle catches up with you...ideaist
- yeah that always sucks. and we inevitably regret not reaching out/spending time more. It's tough. when you have kids, family, work etc etc._niko
- but even though he didn't take off, it sounds like he enjoyed the ride while he was here :) and hopefully brought some joy and good memories to loved ones_niko
- @_niko I agree; he certainly did whatever he wanted whenever he wanted, which is great for him!
Death (& taxes) just suck, I guess.ideaist

- Got mine for Manchester on Monday. Can’t wait.Morning_star
- fuck, I Had a goddamn calendar reminder and 3 notifications set up and somehow fucking missed the salemonospaced
- $500 fucking CAD!!!pango
- Nowhere near me :(bezoar
- £201.10 for two seated tickets in Manchester, UK. Bit steep for me.Ianbolton
- Wife and I decided to not buy tix for this show... :( Way too damned expensive by the time it was our 'turn in line'PonyBoy
- it would have been $600 minimum for a pair of the low end seats in Brooklyn, NY... WTFmonospaced
- yeah, mono... 2 'okay' seats in Boston would be just over $500 after fees (and don't get me started on parking)PonyBoy
- We got our tickets for pretty cheap compared to what other people had to dish out. Ticketmaster is the devil but the dynamic pricing is also Trent's faultNBQ00
- There's a bit of a backlash now and NIN had to turn off their social media comments. Some people paying $500-1000 and more for tickets, yikesNBQ00
- I waited in the queue only to find $400+ tickets before service charges. No thanks Trent.fooler
- Ticketmaster once again milking the music scene dry?Ianbolton
- Fuck anyone who thinks it’s okay to resell tickets for profit as a business btw. That should be illegalmonospaced
- The high ticket prices (especially in the US) has a lot to do with Ticketmaster due to their dynamic pricing option. But the artist can decide if ok or notNBQ00
- And Trent has 6 kids to feed and his wife has an expensive lifestyle.NBQ00
- what about my 6 kids i've never met?!?!pango

I remember the time as a young 17 year old buck me a few friends went into the Ritz in NYC to see a band. I drove. At some point during the concert I reached into my pockets expecting to feel my car keys. They weren't there and I inwardly panicked. How the hell am I going to find my keys in this concert? How the hell am I going to get home? Car towed!
Then I remembered that I parked my car in a garage. They had the keys.
I'm going to see a band tonight but hope to find on-street parking.

Yesterday morning, I tried setting up Downtime on my iphone. Blocked access to browsers, social, or any of my apps that cause distraction. Only left things like Messages, ebooks, Procreate, Maps.
By about 11 A.M. I was fed up with the internet so I flipped it on. Fuck it. Blocks access until the next day.
Verdict: fantastic! What a great rest of the day. Going to flip it on again this morning.
