    Old VHS - STS-3 Chariots of Fire

    Just something I ran across when I was transferring old videos off of VHS: STS-3 landed 4/30/1982. Thought it was extraordinarily well done for a nightly news broadcast in the '80s.

    STS-3 Chariots of Fire

    Going through and digitizing some old video tapes I came across this clip that I always liked. It was the closing segment of a nightly network news program (forget what network). The recording is crappy but the production and sync with the music are well done. I don't think it would fit to...

    The Door Into Summer

    Was browsing Netflix and was surprised to see a new release titled "The Door Into Summer", which is pretty much my favorite Heinlein novel. It's a 2021 Japanese language, English subtitled, movie that actually follows the book reasonably well. It lacks the '60s Heinlein flair, but the story is...

    3D Printing SainSmart Coreception / Creality Elf

    So I bought a Coreception last week (the Elf is pretty much identical). My old printers were, old, and really not worth upgrading or spending time fiddling with anymore. I would have preferred to scratch build exactly what I wanted, but I'm not really in a position to do that at the moment...

    Amazon Shipping

    Good or bad, I order a lot of stuff from Amazon. In the past year or so, most of the Amazon deliveries have been by the local gray Amazon delivery vans. The neet part about the Amazon deliveries is that the delivery notice includes a picture of the package on your doorstep. This was my most...
