You may have heard that #Apple announced the 11th generation base #iPad upgraded to an A16 processor and starting with 128GBs of storage, but is lacking #AppleIntelligence. Good, I say. I’m happy to have it on my Mac Mini, but don’t need it anywhere else. #tech appleinsider.com/articles/…
If anything at all makes sense in these insane times, it’s that Musk’s #DOGE is acting on the barrage of lies the #GOP and #MAGA have been slinging at the Federal government for years now. #Capitalism wants it to leave them alone so they can plunder at will. #uspol gizmodo.com/doge-prep…
#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: Lari Basilio - Far More (2019). How many lawyers do you know who can shred like this, and with range like Eric Johnson and does an MJ cover!? Not many, I’m guessing. One complaint… the album is too short! #music #instrumental #rock www.youtube.com/watch
#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: Steely Dan - Two Against Nature Live @ Sony Studios NYC (2000). As was typical of the era the audio is phenomenal but the video is 4:3 and blurry. Doesn’t matter. Still fantastic. Thanks for everything, Walter! #music #jazzrock www.youtube.com/watch
I can’t agree with @kotaku.com about most on this list. #Disney #liveaction adaptations are mostly wretched & soulless, aside from #2 The Jungle Book and #1 Pete’s Dragon, both from 2016. Lilo & Stitch might get on my list, though. #film kotaku.com/disney-li…
#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: Simon Phillips - Protocol IV (2017). With Greg Howe on guitar, Ernest Tibbs on bass, and Dennis Hamm on keys. The first I’d heard of Simon was on Celtic Run, the sixth track. I’ve tucked in fully since. #music #jazz #jazzfusion www.youtube.com/watch
Just came across an animatic for the pilot of “Pretty Pretty Please I Don’t Want to be a Magical Girl” and I’m all in for it. The humor and trope flipping is sharp! #Indie #Animation has been growing strong over the past decade, and it’s glorious. @kianamai.bsky.social #YouTube www.youtube.com/watch
The wife recently discovered #Goose, an amazing new-ish #JamBand, and we’ve been digging into their epic shows. I’d read in #Wikipedia that they had a special guest drummer a couple years ago, and found it. Enjoy! #music #rock #muppets www.youtube.com/watch
Anyone who deals in retro gear knows #retrocomputing gets more difficult the further back you go in history. Hugh Jeffreys deals with one of the common issues with his iBook G3s dead batteries. Not a guide, per se, but helpful info for decision making. #tech #Apple www.youtube.com/watch
#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: Lee Ritenour & Mike Stern with The Freeway Band - Live at Blue Note Tokyo (2011). Today is def Simon Phillips day, as he plays drums in this show with John Beasley on keys, and Melvin Davis on bass. #music #jazz #jazzfusion www.youtube.com/watch
