A part of me really does want to get onboard with the “there isn’t enough representation of women in video games” train, but I just love looking at dudes’ bums.
Last year, kids were saying “6, 7” for no particular reason; it was just a schoolyard meme. Old people like me started saying it. It wasn’t cool anymore because old people aren’t cool. This snack company is trying to ride the hottest trend about twelve months too late.
And for CDs, before the zero mark, there could be data. I think the X-Files TV show soundtrack had a couple of songs if you inserted the disc and immediately rewound before the starting zero. Like, in minus time. The table of contents apparently didn’t care about minus numbers.
Hidden grooves on records were not terribly common, as far as I am aware. I have Tool’s Undertow (which — if you have the CD version — you have already heard it) and a Monty Python record Tie and Handkerchief.
Not a terribly strong argument to preserve a format because I have no motivation to revisit either, but a fun little one time experience if you have either of those handy.
I didn’t find it sad. The writing was on the wall for physical media and I ripped it with the highest accuracy I could. I still have those albums in CD quality today.
That track at the end of Further Down the Spiral that relies on CD skipping is sort of lost to us, I guess. You can replicate it but kids won’t accidentally stumble upon it. Just like kids won’t accidentally stumble upon the “3rd spiral” of vinyl records. The Easter egg era is over.

Flashdance!
The owls were exactly what they seemed. 😔
He had a song called Millennium which was about the millennium. I don’t think I have heard anything about him since.
I see Gulf of America in parentheses. You know, like a participation trophy.
Fire hydrants in snowy places often have tall, vertical, very visable posts attached to them that can be seen above the snow bank.
I wouldn’t call his reply gatekeeping. He’s kind of just promoting a race to the bottom mentality.
Lemmy: don’t use AI; pay artists!
Also Lemmy: this uppity bitch should work for exposure.
Imagine getting a card like this in an airplane.
I thought it was going to be based on the Sean Connery SNL bit.
It’s no good.
A 35¢ coin and a -5¢ coin. Easy!
He says 10 other jobs per week. So that’s $1750x11x52 which is over a million.
Pry those em dashes from my cold, dead hands, Louise.

My favourite bible verse is when Jesus encourages his followers to cut down Flock cameras.
