I built a house in Minecraft. On all the gate entrances I put up my banner. It’s a cross, because Jesus, with a red skull over it, because death (lots of plants and animals need killing in Minecraft). I am very dark and poetic, you see. I wish you could see the banners from far … Video: My Minecraft House
Noah (2014) The only righteous man on Earth hears from the Creator that He’ll be sending some destruction his way, but there’s something he can do about it. This movie didn’t do well for two reasons. One, because folks wanted The Passion of the Christ, but for Noah, but there was extra-Biblical stuff in there … Sci-fi and Fantasy Movies and Series Reviews, Part 41
Looks pretty much tied, but “Jagoff” is playing a little dirty. Taken at the City-Council Building on Grant Street.

I want to say Vision of Escaflowne’s soundtrack was too good for it, but I like the series too much to commit to that criticism. I suppose I could just say the animation’s quality doesn’t quite match soundtrack’s; the animation values are only a few steps above Saturday morning cartoon. Composer and general musician Yoko … Wednesday Humpday Midday Music: “Wings” from Vision of Escaflowne

I scrolled through my Facebook archive (I downloaded everything before I killed my account) casually the other day, and saw that I had posted this video. I don’t know if it’s from some overseas copyright thing, because the uploader isn’t the band or the their label, and it’s video quality of all the uploads I’ve … Video: school food punishment – “future nova”
The Super Mario Bros. Movie (2023) Two brothers, fledgling plumbers from Brooklyn, are transported to a world where a giant fire-breathing turtle aims to take over the neighboring kingdoms. This could’ve been really bad—worse than the universally-hated 1993 abomination—but thankfully all those involved with writing this did what was expected of them. Some awkward dialog … Sci-fi and Fantasy Movies and Series Reviews, Part 40
In all my decades of church going, I’ve never heard a pastor or priest preach on this parable. There are reasons for this: it doesn’t provide the Hallmark feels that parables like the Prodigal Son do; pastors can be lazy, and organizing a sermon with this material requires some work to brush away some assumptions; … The Parable of the Shrewd Manager
I know very little about the post process in video, so these things are fascinating to me. There’s probably a lot more work going into making real-life looking graphics as opposed to the work involved with creating things like futuristic tech. You can fudge things a bit with things that don’t really exist, but if … Video: “Stalingrad” Post-Production Reel
Here’s a comment I left on one of Ed’s posts, “Surveillance and Censorship” This post reminds me of the Twitter “algorithm” post I saw a few days back. Someone found in the source code Musk made available the parts where political tweets and accounts could be boosted or stifled. There were very obvious a variable … Fishy Twitter
The first hike of the year and season! At Deer Lakes in Frazer and West Deer Townships in Westmoreland County, PA. A storm blew by the day before: very windy but not a ton of rain. There was enough rain, though, to make a lot of spots muddy. Except for one spot that took us … Photos: Deer Lakes’ Orange and White Trail Loop
It’s always good to see galaxy-level drumming talent like this, when it’s more up-close than in a performance setting. I might not like it as much if I wasn’t familiar with the album this song is on, Planetary Duality. A lot of this progressive death metal stuff just sounds like a flurry of random beats … Video: Alex Rudinger – Xenochrist Drum Playthrough
The original NPCs. Photo by rolexpv People might not like plastic water bottles, because environment, or they simply dislike the concept of strangers hydrating themselves. I hate these bottles because if you buy an entire case of them for a party or general issue get-together, it’s easy to mix up your water bottles with someone … Someone Steal This Idea: Customized Plastic Water Bottles
Enjoy.
Sure, this is only a British bureaucrat, but there’s no reason to think there are other rulers who have the same “tendencies“: It’s not so much that everyone in government is a psychopath, it’s that governments tend to attract psychopaths. It seems like governments are stuffed full of them. No quite off topic is The … Psychopaths In Power
I played Overwatch a few times back when my daughter was really into it, but I don’t know anything about the backstory of any of the characters. Regardless, I thought this was a really well-done short movie. I have a soft spot for “silent” stories—anyone in the world can watch it and understand it, regardless … Video: The Last Bastion
A superchat was left recently for one of Ben’s Suspicious0bservers livestreams. I forget which livestream it was, since he does a lot of them, but I do remember it was from a band’s YouTube account: Something to consider folks: you can’t avoid the truth of this becoming a myth, don’t try to hand down the … The Truth Might Be Mythical
Most everything I’ve read from Vice is either unremarkable or ridiculous nonsense, but that doesn’t mean their writers can have moments of clarity. From “I Had An AI Chatbot Write My Eulogy. It Was Very Weird” (emphasis mine): Machine learning tools like Stable Diffusion and OpenAI’s ChatGPT have been breathlessly covered by the press in … AI Isn’t
