Well... clearly I was bored. I had an agent gather up comments about me from various places, fed that into Qwen and had it write a song, then put it into Suno.

I'm kinda catchy.

After 20 some odd years of packing gear for #DragonCon2025 , no matter how early I start, I inevitably have to pull a frantic all nighter then jump in the car at 3am. for 10 hrs.

If you're going to #DragonCon2025 and you want to learn the basics of #filmmaking, #ai, #vfx and a bunch of other random cool shhhtuff... then drop in on our panels.

... and follow me, I need some of my D*C family in my Bluesky feed.

It's finals week. For those who have worked at a university... And for a particularly long time as I have, you don't realize how fast and chaotic it is until the sudden silence every 16 weeks or so.

Well, that's quite a thing.

I hope #southwestairlines is ready to start competing exclusively on price now that they have eliminated all of the competitive advantages that made them my first choice.

Strip away the ceremony, and the only difference between #agile and #waterfall is that in Waterfall, betas are what you test, and an Agile betas are what you ship.

Fight me.

I am no Apple fan, and there are reasons to criticize Apple, like their recent decision advertise on X. But this is not Apple's fault. Any back door means zero security. Some days you have good government, and some days you get Orange Nazis. Look at our example.

If you haven't seen #CreatureCommandos, it's worth your time... But the great soundtrack reminded me that if I ever own a bar, this will be the last song of the night.

Today, I am installing a firewire card into a modern machine to pull a couple VHS tapes from a VCR.

My machine lodged a complaint, claiming such work is beneath it, but its remaining x1 pcie slot says otherwise.

I am going to #London and #Paris in March. I've got all the touristy stuff covered. What should I throw in there that's unusual/uncommon/local... etc?

"Hey Billy, it's your time to shine at CES, are you ready"

-"Absolutely, what are we announcing?"

"Matter-enabled devices for Maritime Vessels"

-"Uh." *cringes* "Like, SmartThings for Ships?"

"YA! That's the spirit Billy... now get out there. Have a line prepared for the wows, you'll do great."

In case you were wondering whether to have a great 2025 or not... I think it would be an appropriate use of your time.
