#SNESdev Personally, I really, really don't like the current music software / tools for making SNES game music. I feel like BRR samples should be separate and able to be dynamically swapped, such as for game sounds (not BG music) And the music editor should be more user friendly.

"Our security will protect you 365 days a year"

Ads for medicines are crazy. Like "ask your dr about this new cholesterol pill. Side effects include spontaneous combustion, bleeding from the eyes, demonic possession, existential dread, nightmares that you can never wake from, and Zombie bladder syndrome" while showing you happy people on bikes

Sometimes I'll have random thoughts like "maybe I'll start my own podcast" and then I'll remember that I don't have free time and I don't like to talk that much.

Unusually hot this September. I bet this is going to be another year where it goes 85, 85, 85, 85, 85, 85, 50 with almost no days near 70

Any time someone complains about the radical left, this is what I picture. Radical!

I sure hope they make the new iPhones 0.5 mm thinner... said nobody

idea for a book. a dystopian future where people get microchips in their brains to enhance their work ability, a chip that is a subscription service that becomes more and more expensive, so much that people are unable to pay, and their chips are deactivated and they are unable to work without it.

When I look at code I wrote over a year ago. #gamedev

They should make Pepperoni Bits, like Bacon Bits. It's already a dry meat product that is shelf stable. Want to spice up your potato? Pepperoni Bits. who's with me? This is a million $ idea. Guaranteed.

I really like the Dr Mario song - Fever. I would put it in my top 20 NES songs.

You ever notice, when they make US maps, that they show Hawaii as like 6 islands. But in reality, Hawaii keeps going on for another 1000 miles with 137 islands.

tariffs go into effect today. prices will rise. tariffs are taxes that Americans pay.

I had an weird idea. A mashup up Garfield and Seinfeld, called Garfeld, where I take old Garfield comix and paste faces of Seinfeld characters over the faces of the cartoon. George should be Garfield. Jerry is Jon. Cramer is Odie. Elaine is Liz. Newman is the mailman. I might do 1 just to test it

Wut? Apparently, C flat is a programming language that uses music notes (MIDI file) as code.

Remember Max Headroom? He has a fascinating history. Originally, British TV wanted to do something like MTV, but with a CGI host. But, CGI wasn't very good, and kind of expensive, so they faked it with an actor in makeup. But then they wanted to tell the backstory, so they...

Lately, my family has been playing a card game called Skyjo. It's an easy to learn card game, and it's pretty fun. It's similar to the card game Golf. You could say it's a variation of that game.

I don't get the point of a Sauna or Steam room at a gym. I hate being sweaty. If I designed a gym, I would add a room that is extra cold, so you can cool off from all the sweat and extra body heat.

S&P P/E ratio is way way way off normal. People are throwing money at AI, and a vast majority of these companies do not make a profit. And might never make a profit. And many of them will be bankrupt in a few years. I don't like it, from an investment standpoint

I would love to see an Ozzy Osbourne biopic.

Why is Sodium Lauryl Sulfate is nearly every toothpaste? I didn't even know that. 😡

I think someone is playing a prank on me, but my phone calendar just gave me this notification. 9 minutes left till the end of the world.

The price of coffee is going to skyrocket in 2 weeks. You might want to stock up. tariffs are taxes

17 million Americans just lost their healthcare. That's 1 in 20. This is a very sad day.

My son thinks we should say Tetragon instead of Quadrilateral and Trigon instead of Triangle. To be consistent with Pentagon, Octagon, etc.

I had planned to write music / chiptunes for the SNES and Sega Genesis. But somehow I never found the time. I did write some guitar songs, and one day soon I will post them... somewhere.

I work in a hospital, and we have seen a big increase in heat related emergencies. This heat wave isn't F'n around, the high humidity makes it feel much hotter. Stay inside. Do that yard work next week. Nobody cares that your grass is too long.

I've seen this one before.

To this day, I still don't know what a Wonderwall is. Or what an Unskinny Bop is. Or why does he keep saying Glycerine? Does his girl use Glycerin soap? What is that supposed to mean, in the context of the song. You couldn't give us one line that explains it? And what's a Karma Chameleon?

They've tricked us into fighting each other, while the ultra-rich cut our benefits. We pay more taxes through tariffs, they pay less. They've got us distracted while they do a smash and grab job on America.

the name "trivia" suggests there should be 3 ways to answer a trivia question.

There's so much crazy going on all the time, it's hard to keep up, but today was an extra special crazy day. Possibly the cruelest budget bill ever written passed. It will devastate millions of lives in so many horrible ways. And tariffs are back up. Again. 50% on Europe. 25% on smartphones.

If they gut Medicaid hospitals will close nursing homes will go bankrupt people will die this would be devastating to millions of people's lives.

How I imagine the tariff reset to go.

We need to bring back the genre of movie where a group of escaped mental hospital patients go on a wacky adventure. The Dream Team, The Couch Trip. What About Bob fits the theme.

Zuckerberg says in the future most our friends will be AI. what a bleak and depressing world we leave for our children. "You are an incredibly sensitive man who inspires joy-joy feelings in all those around you"

Did you know that Homer Simpson's birthday is in 4 days? May 12, 1956 He's turning 69 this year.

Anecdotal, but I believe prices have started rising. A quick check on key grocery items (my own purchases) shows a 4% increase since January, with only eggs being slightly cheaper. I estimate this will cost my family an extra $500 a year.

I don't want to panic anyone, but port traffic is down 30-40%. Cargo Ships aren't shipping. There will be shortages of, just about everything soon. Truckers will be laid off. Businesses requiring parts from China will be unable to work. An economic recession is likely. Very likely.

Is an Antique the opposite of a Q?

The end of Caddyshack makes no sense. Judge Smails has an important putt, so he pulls out a SPECIAL putter. A putter that he rarely uses He should use the club he's warmed up with. Consistency is key If he's extra good with the fancy putter, why not use it for every putt? Every stroke counts equally

What's going on with Arsenio Hall? I haven't seen him in anything lately. Coming to America 2 was 4 years ago. We need more Arsenio in our lives.

People who believe in luck will say "wow you should go play the lottery" after something lucky happens, as if luck leads to more luck. Then you do something lucky, lets say in golf, and people will say "you just used up all your luck for the rest of the round" as if luck leads to less luck. hmm?

I feel like watching this administration is like watching someone play Simcity and trying to do everything wrong on purpose. Pollution? More of that. Taxes (tariffs) just crank it up as high as you can. Now let's press the disaster button, right as we cut funding to fire services.

20% universal tariffs on everything from everywhere. Donald Trump just raised your taxes by 20%. This could be the steepest tax increase since the 1940s #tariffs

If you follow the money, you can see who really benefits from the tariffs on cars. Here's a handy chart to illustrate the two main beneficiaries.

Mistakes were made.
