Glad I could help! Your post gave me a walk down memory lane. I'd forgotten all about the trips I used to do to this local music store that carried bootlegs. The Nirvana section was substantial. I remember having a number of them with

Are you certain Faith No More did the cover? There's certainly a Mr. Bungle version [0] from a San Francisco gig in 1990. I remember grabbing this from the Bungle Fever FTP site back in around '99. I'd often download the boot

I should have waited till after I dove deeper into the site before replying as I see the site links to a cool looking cardboard kit you can buy[1] (or you could if it wasn't sold out). 1. https://pinbox3000.com/

I would have loved seeing this as a kid. I was obsessed with wanting to build a pinball machine when I was young. At the time my skills only stretched as far as cardboard builds with elastic band bumpers and pencils for flippers, but I got

Steffest was just showing off his entry for the color cycling competition at GERP 2026 which uses a few of his tools to produce including DPaint. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VyB5cvA6f78 EDIT: I see he posted a link at t

The context seemed to last a few seconds. I went from a mock up screenshot of a fantasy video game, complete with first person weapon. Then as I moved forward the weapon became part of the scenery and the whole world blurred and blended unt

I do enjoy these kinds of write ups, especially when it's about something that might seem so simple on the surface, but in order to get looking great you really have to go in deep. Lucas Pope did a really nice write up on how he develo

You've just brought back an old memory there. We used to do LAN parties at the weekend, and none of us has network cards, but one of our friends worked in the IT department of the local university. So he would bring a stack of cards wi

This type of issue comes up in the video game development world. Perhaps in part due to modern engines being off-the-shelf ready to render high quality assets and assets being so available, either internally or from an asset store. It helpe

Blues News is still very much alive https://www.bluesnews.com/ I only recently rediscovered it and it was such a nice surprise to see that it still looks pretty much as I remember back in '96.

I've missed Web buttons. I remember entire movements done using them back in the mid 90's. There were some boycotts where people would put the buttons on their site to show support. I also remember the ones proudly showing that th

Enjoyed that. Removing a block was a bit fiddly on FireFox (Floorp) due to the right click menu appearing when I tried to click on a tile. Looking forward to tomorrows!

Why buy a new PC when your crummy old one can just connect to a fancy "cloud" computer which you can rent for a snappy monthly fee. Want faster or more hours of access, they'll sell you a higher tier for that. Remember the bi

Already this week on ChatGPT+ I've had multiple banners above the chat box saying "Shop smarter this session Let ChatGPT do the digging for you, with in-depth research into the best deals and gifts." I was working on a coding

That button will soon become "Show fewer ads" if it doesn't just get removed at all. Just like how Youtube won't let you switch off Shorts, but will let you click "Show fewer" which lasts for a few weeks.

This bugs me no end. Image search is so challenging to use because the results are a vague interpretation of what you ask for, and don't try to be more descriptive because that's just more words to throw in the mix of results

You can run a script to scoop up the search points for desktop and mobile to skip the monkey work of collecting points. It won't get the extra points for doing other reward tasks. https://github.com/jack-mil/bing-r

My PC doesn't have TPM. It's old, but still perfectly fine to run for my needs. I use Unreal 5, play games, watch videos. Could run quicker but it's no landfill device. I don't think it'll suddenly fall to pieces co

When I heard that a friend had bought one of these for a week long canoe trip we were going on I thought it was absurd. The idea of taking such a home comfort on a camping trip went against everything I felt camping stood for. Then I tried

I only read about this recently. Such a dark premise, which I could imagine being an incredibly powerful movie if shot well, but missing the mark by even an inch would likely just end up to be an offensive mess. I presumed this movie was a

I find that using ways to step away from code help think things through in ways to overcome roadblocks. One recent trick I've found is rubber duck my issue into ChatGPT, which I used to do in a notepad (either digital or physical), the

I don't know if Discord fixed it as I haven't checked in a few years, but I tinkered with scraping some public Discords and I found that I could see hidden channels, not the data, but the channel names, which could do things like

There are tricks to get messages from Slack, though I heard they were changing soon if not already. A year or so ago I exported all messages from a Slack group I ran and used a Discord bot to recreate the entire dataset including channels a
