Going through a bunch of old CD-Rs from the late 90's and early 2000's, and TDK clearly made the most reliable CD-Rs. I've never seen of of them fail. Verbatim on the other hand...😮‍💨

Fedizens! Please send me your favourite meme which shows something important about the #fediverse I'll go first:

The kids school is closed because of the typhoon tomorrow. My kids have that snow day energy I remember from when I was a kid.

I agree with all of this. Going to the movie theater isn't what it use to be, but it's better than the streaming dog shit we have now. The thing that bothers me the most is all the commercials before a movie. Just show me trailers. https://youtu.be/N2ycAgYkL4w?si=7YewBP2GXC1ja1XK

Today was the first day of summer #running where I could feel the heat impacting my run. Stay hydrated people. #tokyo

I feel like there are just some people who's entire situation is the universe just doesn't want them here. This will sound harsh, but my nephew is one of them. Dude just crashed his motorcycle for the second time being an idiot, he has a deadly nut allergy that nobody else in my family has. (His […]

Intense golden light right now.

Guys! Eating ass has been found to be probiotic great for gut health. It also has been found good for the immune system too. It’s a great day for science.🧐#famichikidailyhealthtips https://www.instagram.com/p/DY0aHlMxGgq/

I remember seeing the movie #idiocracy back in the day and thinking it was really funny. Now I realized it was a documentary of the actual reality to come.😮‍💨 https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/may/26/ufc-arena-white-house-trump-birthday

Modern gaming is fucked or at least is going to stagnate for a bit. Just one more thing A.I. is ruining because everyone in the tech industry is worshiping it like the golden calf. #Gaming https://youtu.be/SUqQrlLV0tU?si=jwT5Z_KzQgCJRXgJ

Really feeling the itch for new headphones. It's becoming insaitionable aftering demoing them yesterday. These will be a huge upgrade for me. #hifi https://www.focal.com/products/clear-mg

I'm not going to lie. I'm looking forward to the American economy getting the rug pull it deserves. All these billionaires that keep twisting the knife into the workingman's back and expecting more returns deserve to feel it too since this is their doing. Walmart is the bottom rung for […]

Dying... Coffee time.😪

Just got back from a 10km run. It's a warm sunny one out there today. Felt good and healthy!

#til all UHD Blu-ray drives are equipped with separate, dedicated laser diodes. When you insert a CD, the drive automatically switches over to a low-power 780 nm Infrared (IR) laser to read the disc. CDs have much larger physical data pits that a short 405 nm wavelength cannot properly read.

I've noticed this for years, but never understood why so many salarymen "jazz run" when running. Is a jazz running course required as a part of the salaryman degree?

Neat! #ut99 port for #android. #retrogaming https://www.reddit.com/r/unrealtournament/s/EXfiqMPdJM

When you've drank so much coffee you can't complete thoughts in one go, but you are also still tired.

So this summer there is going to be a #superelnino. I asked Gemini how it affected the weather in Japan in 1877 and this was the response. We kind of win: While the devastating 1877 El Niño triggered severe droughts and famines in the Americas, India, and China, Japan actually experienced a […]

Was just listening to a conversation on the elevator by two people that were either American or Canadian. (They didn’t say about or out so I couldn’t tell) They both seemed to have just transferred here from their office in mentioned countries. The guy said he had to buy a new shirt because he […]

WTF is going on? Suddenly I'm getting all these emails from Classmates.com. I've never signed up for that shit, but it adds you automatically I guess. For years nothing and now I'm getting all these emails that such and such checked your profile. Are people talking about me? What about? Is this […]

The sun is strong today. Just got back from a 10k run and I could feel it cooking me.

I haven't got to play this yet, but this guy made an #eldenring like game for the #n64. Pretty cool. There is a download link in the description of the video. #retrogaming https://youtu.be/wgg7pXWg3h4?si=1DzKmWJuNx1xF1cW

I wish we had tiered security training at my place of employment. I spend so much wasted time doing these training classes for obvious shit. Make everyone take a test and if you aren't a moron, then you don't have to do this. If you are a moron, you have to do this shit every day.

Music Sundays…. I discovered the band #farcaspian during the COVID lockdown. They had a few EPs, but then started releasing albums. Probably my favorite and best entry point to start is their 2021 album Ways To Get Out. This would be something Pitchfork would have loved back when they knew what […]

Went for a run earlier, shower, and now chilling in my undies in the AC. I feel good. Maybe go get a coffee.

Random thought: I’m probably the only guy that thinks the movie Fight Club is just alright. I saw it when it came out and my GF at the time had it on DVD, so I’ve seen it a few times. It just never connected with me like it did for so many people.

I’m literally hangry right now.😡

It’s a great day to be out there burgering. The weather is fantastic.

Saikyo Line is fucked. (Like always) I always see weebs praise Japan’s trains for being on time. Have they not rode the Saikyo Line?

I’m sort of excited for the new #StarFox game mostly because it’s the first really Switch 2 game. The water and lava effects look awesome. Anyway, I played through #StarFox64 on real hardware tonight. It still holds up. #retrogaming #n64

An unencrypted Steam update means that the PC version of Forza Horizon 6 has leaked. www.digitalfoundry.net/news/2026/05...

This part.

Just got back from a sunny 10K. Great weather for a run. Felt great!

...then they came for the VPNs... No, not in China, Russia, or Iran - in the USA. Coming soon to a country or a state near you. Because, "think of the children". "Utah first state to hold websites liable for users who mask their location with VPNs — law goes into effect, designed to prevent […]

Buenas noches

Don't forget to send your Moms flowers. Mother's Day is Sunday.

My allergies are at a level that I no longer wish to live. I'm going to plug 5 Allegra when I get home.

Allergies are really fucking me today.😮‍💨

Getting my AKG 712 Pro headphones fixed. A wire came unsoldered and I don’t have soldering tools. To turn a negative into a positive I finally checked out Burger & Milkshake Crane in Akihabara. Pretty solid burger. Well toasted bun which was a nice touch. Patty […] [Original post on famichiki.jp]

#legendofzeldaminishcap has been ported to the PC. This is a very cool Zelda game I wasn't expecting to get into. It's uses the GBA's hardware to it's strengths and does it well. If you aren't into handhelds, this is a good way to experience it. The sprite artwork when you are small is […]

Hell yeah! Let's go shopping! Everyone should do this until the bring back cashiers. #merica https://www.youtube.com/shorts/CU8fKb-c_Xk

Oh! It's warm outside. Time for a 10K. Let's go! #running

I finally got one of these. Now I need one more for the project. #arcraiders

I went on tons of cruises with my parents when I was a kid. Nothing like this ever happened then. WTF is going on now? This seems to happen every few years now. https://www.nbcnews.com/health/health-news/3-dead-suspected-hantavirus-infections-cruise-ship-rcna343366

Wife won’t let me buy this shirt.😡

Why am I getting zits in my hair lately? I never know they are there and then I scratch them and the zit appears to be connected to every nerve in my body.

Finally got around to finishing the last roll of film that was still in my camera from my trip to Italy last fall. I think I might go back to Italy again soon. https://flic.kr/p/2s9jBsQ #italy #bologna #streetphotography #filmphotography #photography #travelphotography #believeinfilm #ミノルタ […]

Just now while blowing out 2/3 of my bodies water out my ass for no reason at all, I wondered how come this happens to men more than women. You always hear about women being constipated, but that's never a problem for me or most guys I think. Thankfully I was at home when this happened, but […]
