Awwww dang. I had some small hope that they'd pull the funds together but I'm glad they lasted as long as they did. Saw many shows there and had many a frozen reeses cup.
Wow, a whole week! That's gonna feel great to just take your time and do it right.
Holy cow, what a killer list! Thank you for posting!
I loved Piranesi by Susanna Clarke! Also if you want to stretch your genre comfort, Kim Stanley Robinson's Mars trilogy is just wonderful. I return to it every few years.
Thanks for popping in the link! Wow, what a read. I hope it leads to better treatment.
Great article - glad the Lid I5 is still pushing forward. It would be such a great thing for the city. Also I used to work with John, who they interview in the article - he's a good dude.
Fair enough! I have a mantra for those moments. I think to myself "I am here, now. Not there, then."
Yes! And it's reeeeeeally good! They also just wrapped up a kickstarter to fund production on their second.
What do you mean by cold? I might be an outlier cuz I left feeling chatty and interested - my partner and I talked about it all the way home.
I enjoyed it! I think it'll become a traditional Christmas movie for me. I loved the moodiness and also kinda chuckled at some of it, but I thought it was great. I don't know what the author means by 'cold', but that's ok. I have a feeling that re-watches will help reveal the character of the movie to me over time that I don't already have shorthand understandings (tropes) ready-made for, if that makes sense. I was left wanting to know more about the choices they made in the characters' portrayals and stylistic moves. I thought it had all kinds of vibe.
Wow, great job doing kitchen science. Those look amazing! I'll have to check out that book, thank you for sharing.
Since updating to 15 I've had issues with this kind of text display. This, for instance, is in Messages. Messages itself is set to follow the system theme, and the system theme is set to dark mode. If I set it to light mode the text displays as expected. Trying to manually set the theme in Messages doesn't fix it. Nothing special going on with the phone itself - it's a Pixel 6 Pro just running regular Android. Thought I'd post in case anyone has seen something similar.
Just got this vertical 4x12 from Zilla. Got it to pair with this VHX. It currently has four k100's in it, but I'm planning to swap a couple for v30's in a different cab. The vertical 4x12 with the tip-back wheels and handles are really cool - I got this thing up a couple flights of stairs myself without too much trouble, and it sounds great. I gotta say, this form factor solves a lot of problems with the typical 4x12 - posting here so hopefully more guitar nerds see it! Zilla (and Paul!) are great to work with, and make really solid stuff.
(The two on the sides I ordered a few years back when the F12-X200s came out - they built these from the reference cab specs that Celestion published, and I mostly use them with my Kemper and a Matrix GT-1000 power amp. They're also pretty rad. I've taken these out separately and run synths through that power amp and it's a killer setup for that sort of thing)
Haiku looks so cool! Been wanting to try it for a while now, thanks to that Action Retro guy on youtube.
