Today, we honor Sandy, the most curious guinea pig I knew, my closest friend for many, many years. She passed away early this morning, circling around once to check on the other pigs, then nestling herself into her favorite little spot one last time.
I’ll always miss the way you’d try and figure out anything. The way you notice everyone coming and demand to boop their nose. The way you’d always remind me that my left shoulder will always be your perch.
Sleep well, my beloved piggie.
The record wall is coming along nicely! Still need to fill one more space...but my @envgen tape sits there nicely for now :)
Interesting one in particular: Emasculine by @envgen, but shifted up from C to Eb. It sounds...wrong...but there's a weirdly neat sound to the vocals once the chorus kicks in. Not quite sure how I feel about it...
My wallet is not happy, but I'm the proud new owner of a Nikon D7500. A worthy upgrade for my 2004 D70...here's a quick sushi comparison :) (Same lens/settings/composition to the best of my ability)
Included photo is from the D70; the D7500 photo is too big, so here's a link: https://elixi.re/i/ngnt.jpg
So I made a thing! 4TU has a little GUI library called Chesto, and we needed a little barebones test app...hence, ChestoTesto.
Well *done*, Hoopla. (ranty tech thing)
Before I've even registered for your service, you've greeted a user just wanting to take a peek with this wonderfully non-bypassable "use a modern browser" screen.
....I'm quite literally using Chromium. Stock Chromium, with only a patch to enable the hardware h.264 decoding on Linux. (Which, by the way, is enabled in mainline Chrome on Windows - a configuration they explicitly support.)
Tinkerer, musician, engineer, linux-wiiu dev, 4TU staff. I post random ramblings and snippets of things here.
Current project: changes every two seconds, ping me and I'll tell you way too much :)
