Hang on. This cannot be Reeves. Spacey? This has got to be that Brandon guy. Ffs
@TheBreadmonkey It’s still not amazing but I admire Brandon Routh for his game attempt to do the Reeves Superman.
Also, while not everything in the film landed for me, it was at the time exactly what I had been wishing for years they would do it with the 1990s Batsmen: pretend the latter two bad films never happened, and go back and make a sequel to the good ones.
@erincandescent any sauce or keywords I can look at?
@kawaiipunk @erincandescent I did invoke Claude for this and it did a very good job of it https://codeberg.org/russss/noizcalc-parser
Milo "ICE checkpoints at supermarket entrances, gas stations, strip malls, intersections, and government buildings with on-the-spot deportation of anyone unable to prove they were legally in the United States." Yiannopoulos has been busted by ICE. The really odd sound you hear is me cackling like a manic.

I am so far into the weeds and yet I need this in my life
Interplanetary Overlay Network (ION) is NASA/JPL’s implementation of Delay/Disruption-Tolerant Networking (DTN) — a store‑carry‑forward network architecture designed to move data reliably across links that are long‑delay, intermittently connected, and asymmetric, where the end‑to‑end connectivity assumed by TCP/IP simply does not exist. ION implements the DTN architecture of Internet RFC 4838 together with Bundle Protocol version 7 (BPv7, RFC 9171) and version 6 (BPv6, RFC 5050), and surrounds them with a full stack of transport protocols, security, routing, and application services.
ION is engineered for both flight and ground systems: it runs within a fixed memory budget, checkpoints protocol state and in‑transit data to persistent storage so a node survives a reset, and ports across operating systems from real‑time flight executives to Linux servers. It is a flight‑proven, operational implementation — used as the baseline for science‑instrument data handling on the International Space Station and in gateway/relay roles for command, telemetry, and science downlink.
@djsundog man, that sounds ideal. Shame about the slop implementation, but that's a solvable problem (for some values of solvable)

And we don't even know who all these players were. But no one with an ear can doubt that they could keep up with him.
What is ZamRock Radio?
We're an independent community radio station running on our own self-built Icecast stack — Icepick (our radio engine), Castilesoap (our auto-DJ that handles scheduling and APIs), IceTray (our standalone relay that anyone can run to rebroadcast ZamRock, even on an old Pi 3).

fascinating experiment in how bad things can get if everyone collectively only lets the worlds worst people take any actions
(Arguably, Artie Shaw was the better raw player. But he had a really hard time getting people to play with him, and it wasn't until the Artie Shaw Quintet that he came in to Goodman's league.)

Outsource the risks *drink*
Annoying that "@index" still seems to be the default fediverse name for every Ghost publication. In this case, the more obvious and helpful default would be @publicinterestnz.
Anyway, curious to know if Public Interest are hosted on ghost.org, or somewhere else. The site is certainly pulling scripts from third-party domains (according to NoScript and uBlock) owned by the Ghost company, so most likely. There's still a lot of work to be done in promoting onshore hosting.

Finally, Public Interest are still promoting the antisocial hellsites on their own homepage, logos and all. This has been standard for so long people have forgotten how weird it is to do unpaid advertising for corporations. So not picking on them for that, just pointing it out, which I'll continue to do until it's denormalised.
(3/3)
* I Am You (1977)
Mesmerizing that even outtakes from 'For You' are better than most tracks on his debut album. Should have been released as his first single. And do I hear the 'Glamorous Life' at the end?
* Tick, Tick, Bang (1981)
I like this one much better than the 'Graffiti Bridge' version. It's raw with a punk vibe. Although I don't think #punk folks can handle the falsetto 🤗 
.
* Heaven (1985)
This one is superb. You really need to listen to this one via your headphones. Because somehow via speakers it doesn't sound well, but that can also be my cheap computer speakers. Although Prince would have made sure that it sounded good on every device!
* I Wonder (1989)
For me, probably the best song of the album. It sounds a little bit like '7', but better, so I don't understand that Prince didn't release this one ('7' was recorded later).
* With This Tear (1991)
This one was already released and you can find my review here: https://todon.nl/@joenepraat/116443024558133982.
* Stone (1995)
Although this one sounds like 'Cream' (that came earlier), it's still top Prince quality. The only problem here is that when I listen to it via my (new/good) earbuds, I hear the snare drum to hard in my left ear. It's just to irritating for my autistic brain. Because the drums are by Kirk Johnson, I can't blame Prince for this. It's also just bad mixing.
* Calabama (2003)
Oh my! OK, maybe it sounds just a little bit to eager to be relevant again and probably to much like 'Me Myself and I' by De La Soul, it is still a funk banger! Oooh that baaass! (yes that's Prince)
* The Guilty Ones (2007)
In the same league as 'Fury' from the same era. Should have been given to the Foo Fighters. One problem though. This sounds great on my cheap computer speakers, but rubbish on my earbuds (only drums and bass sound good). Another case of bad mixing.
* Bestest Friend (2012)
Epic power ballad! Think 'Gold', 'Purple Rain'. Should have been released and should have be put on 'Art Official Age'. Maybe Prince was afraid to mimic it's old self to much, but at that time we would have give a damn.
* How Come You Don’t Call Me Anymore (Live) (1982/2016)
Another proof that the Prince Estate should really release one of the 'Piano & A Microphone' Tour concerts. #Prince literally said that he wanted to do that. Probably his final wishes. 😢
Great to see more kiwi independent media using Ghost to run their own homepage, instead of SS or some other corporate platform;
https://www.publicinterest.nz/
The videos they produce are included on their site as embeds from YouTub, so there's still some work to do there. But you can subscribe and listen to the audio, at least, via a standard podcast feed (works for me in AntennaPod).
In theory we can follow this outlet here. I did find an account at; @index
