Pinned trill

the hints of a soul reaver 1&2 remaster are making my shriveled black heart beat again

im like harrenhall - ancient, cursed, near totally destroyed by bad dragons

it remains the PC's fundamental input for efficient use and while I've made as much use of hotkey bindings to make my life easier, i still think there are things that make sense to have (or not have) a key

anyway

abolish capslock

Show thread

not that I've the incredible arrogance (nor technical skill) to advance some new keyboard paradigm , yet i still think i could do something better than what we currently have

Show thread

i still feel hesitant to say this too strongly, but that specific input change seems "wrong" , perhaps its of use to coders but i can't think of a single time anyone using ms office would necessarily want it, and aside from shift+ins being used in the bash terminal, im not sure where else that ins key gets frequent use

(i hesitate as im afraid of exposing my own ignorance, ha)

Show thread

and 50% of the time, once I've explained why their entire input scheme changed I've been told it was "stupid" that such a key would do such a thing, as though i should be (as ambassador of computer) the recipient of the person's irritation (freshly transmuted from embarrassment)

Show thread

still, with a now fully mature understanding, i maintain some original criticisms with just a sufficient understanding of how certain things came to be and a confidence to express them

i think we're all familiar with someone speaking loudly and over confidently on a subject they are clearly ignorant of, but putting that aside, sometimes those naive criticisms are well founded - I've lost count of the number of times ive had to "fix" someone having accidentally hit the insert key in text editing

Show thread

i think theres an interesting passage from naive criticism to developed understanding to mature criticism

so, keyboard design

as a child i thought things like the f keys, scroll lock (etc) didn't make a ton of sense - i certainly wondered why a print screen key was more important to include than a global multimedia play/pause button (for example)

in learning how to use a computer, its history and so on, i understood how the keyboard developed, how it shaped the os and changed

Another year

Still have difficulty believing she's gone

We never know how much time we have

tara and willow are my favourite wlw (witch loving witch) relationship on tv

hey man, sorry to bother you, but can you help a girl out? this migraine is awful

leatherface : 🔨🙂

people laughed throughout at what I've always presumed to be wryly funny moments and cheered at the end, doubtless as her look of blood soaked exultation is so incredible and joyous

Show thread

i heard the scraping and feedback of chittering and howling and asked, desperately, HOW CAN I MAKE SOUNDS LIKE THIS

Show thread

the soundtrack alone would have make me obsessed when i first saw (shitty betamax copy, long after betamax was dead, lol)

Show thread

texas chainsaw, 4k, cinema, yes yesyes sitting impatient, get to hear this soundscape LOUD AND BIG for this first time😍

I have overcome the human need for sleep / I am about to collapse

June:
"we put flag on brand, buy the products homo"

was lucky to get to see it in an actual cinema, only my 2nd viewing (separated by some decades ). its a better film than I remember.

regardless of its rudimentary premise, the visual elements are what struck me : the use of a flashbulb/strobe to punctuate moments of memory, scenes from the inciting incident shown frequently from odd angles and with the perspective of the viewer forced into uncomfortable confrontation with the leering faces of the antagonists
