It came up on Taskmaster Champion of Champions 4, and it's something I've never understood. In many sporting events with some sort of synchronized start, if you start too quickly, but still after the indicator, it can still be considered a false start. That seems silly.

Interesting fact. With the release of BIND 9.0, in October of 2000, the Dreamcast DNS queries started failing. Because it was appending garbage, and the new version of the DNS server rejected it. I made the request to ignore the extra, rather than fail.

Google killed the 25-year-old Sega Dreamcast PlanetWeb 3.0 web browser this week — big G's services no longer respond to this quarter-century-old software
Some fan-made search engines and online gaming servers remain available.

Shrinkflation hit one of my favorite seasonal treats. Seriously 22 in a box? What kind of number is that? Look at the blank space where two more would fit. They even covered it with the lid of the box.

Watching some Only Connect. This one I knew the 1st and 3rd clues, so I could guess the final. The team was given credit, but they said, "there's a song called G6 by some band we can't remember." I was like, you mean Like a G6 by Far East Movement, which was produced using Propellerhead Reason?

I've not had a random game on a Saturday for a while. So here's Kingdoms of Amalur. I've actually been playing Re-Reckoning recently, having never finished any version of it before. It's a fun, open-world, fantasy RPG. Shame game studio nonsense got in the way of more people playing it.

I'm actually kind of proud of this part of my YouTube recap. I wish I would have said how many minutes of videos I watched during the year. Though, I probably wouldn't be proud of that number.

I basically only watch two things on Twitch, @desertbus.org and @loadingreadyrun.com (playing Jack Box).

It's that time of year! I will have @desertbus.org on some screen around me 24 hours a day. Even when I'm sleeping. (Zeta shift invading my dreams is always fun.)
Can’t believe it’s Desert Bus time again.
Hey, come and hang out while we raise money for children in hospitals.
Going live in ~20 minutes, and then staying live for like a week.

I was thinking I should know this, I like the directors of all these movies, and even many of the other movies they directed. Then when the answer was given, I was really kicking myself, because I actually did know it.

Note to self: When jumping a dead battery don't say, "I'm going with red to negative today," unless the person on the other side of the cables gets your sense of humor. 🎇

People at work hang decorations for every season and holiday. I have no idea what this sign is supposed to mean. This feels like AI slop made real.

I've seen people type two numbers into a spreadsheet, pull out a desk calculator, multiply them, and then also type that number into the spreadsheet.
I'd trust them more than this.

What bothers me about Tylenol is that the big bottle contains 225 caplets, and the use directions say to take 2 at a time.

As someone who lives near Altoona, I immediately thought of that town in reference to the "fun prank" comment. Then I read the alt text, and find Randall was thinking the same.

Alien is one of my favorite franchises. My parents watching the first movie at a drive-in is also one of my first fully formed memories. I agree with the critique of that summary, but I take more issue with the "half-century-old" phrasing. 😮💨
