The very unfortunate passing of Rebecca Heineman has also lined up with other developments and findings involving her 3DO port of Doom.

So I’m making an update video because there’s enough for a whole video. I was originally planning on just a short!

wild fact I just learned (mostly) from reddit:
This person who modeled as the policeman for this Norman Rockwell drawing (Policeman with Boys) was a real policeman, and he's Officer Obie from Arlo Guthrie's Alice's Restaurant.

huh!

you can tell that OpenGL is a better religion than Christianity, because OpenGL has a SuperBible, while Christianity only has a normal bible

"when: the present" haha yes sure Mr Past Man, oh wow this guy was born 1890 and isn't even that old, watching stuff from the past is funny

I'm rewatching the Twilight Zone for the first time in a while and I was confused about why this soldier guy was talking about the moon like it was a mythical object that we haven't been there half a dozen times, I then remembered that Apollo 11 was 10 years after the episode released lmao

I've been wanting one of these for a while and he was too cheap to pick up, one of the scissor joint things is bent which I can easily fix but the bellows are trashed and the cover is missing which also had the winder so I might need to solder together a new winder for him

This is my new son, he's been around since World War 1, was 5$, is held together with 100 year old adhesive + prayer, and he craves death

Someone in real life showed me the shitpost

I genuinely don't know why this exists to be honest lmao, either way I'm glad to have it

This is such a strange fucking reel btw, very few full movies made it to 8mm and even then they're usually cut between 2 or more 400-600 foot reels because that's the size most projectors can fit, this thing is 1200 fucking feet which is insane

It'll be the pièce de résistance to my upcoming Halloween party, I also own the last 25 minutes of a 16mm print but those are insanely more rare so that probably won't be ready until next year

Forgot to post this on blue sky lol, I am the now proud owner of a full 8mm copy of the 1922 silent horror film Nosferatu, I'm currently designing a motorized carrier for it as it's physically too large for 99% of 8mm projectors

Count Dracula really said "sup English boy, go shit I'll make dinner"

I'm reading Dracula for the first time and the phrase "making a hasty toilet" is forever in my brain now

It releases very easily with a small button on the front, I wonder how many people injured themselves with this in the 60s lmao

This is the case for my projector Gus, Gus has a spring loaded stand arm to make it easier to adjust the height of the very heavy stainless steel and glass projector parts, I did not realize this and almost broke my wrist when it shot out at mach fuck

Having the universal discord experience of going through my friends list looking at people I played video games with like 2 years ago and 5 of them have new pronouns

BBQ update: I'm working on restoring my late 1940s Speed Graphic press camera, I installed the new curtains and have the graflok back installed, it pretty much just needs a new shutter plate and ground glass and after that it's ready for shooting, might get it a nicer lens though

The wild twink photographer has returned to his natural habitat of small cheap 24 hour eatery

10 months ago my favorite 24 hour Diner closed, but on Saturday night at around 1 in the morning me and my bestie found a 24 hour Mexican restaurant near my apartment and it was probably some of the best Mexican food I've ever gotten at a restaurant, life is good
