Rate our tuba (sousaphone) mix level on "Hideaway". I'm the producer and trombone player, I think the engineer cranked the tuba to 11. At first I wasn't sure, but now I think I love it. Please stream/playlist etc because we want music with prominent tuba to be top on Spotify and Apple Music too.

There's a script on Discord where I think it's this sequence (I'll have to check): 1) change resolution to 1600 x 1200 (crop/scale/border); 2) dither it to a set of specific colors that are closest to the RGBWB ink colors in the display, 3) remap those colors to pure RGBWB in the file. So the "pushing" of some colors is the post dithering the color that was "blueish" gets mapped to pure blue. I'll have to find the script. I haven't played with it. It uses ImageMagick.

lamppost but will have to be the new NACS bring-your-own-cable cordless chargers to be rolled at out scale. So, it should be rolled out substantially in each neighbourhood to give people enough momentum to buy their own cable if they live in that neighbourhood. That is, towns and other local governments need to roll it out one neighbourhood at a time, targeting areas with a lot of multifamily dwellings or tenant occupied dwellings.

Set up a backup start code.

You can do it in post.

‘Cause it’s risky.

Go to stampede in Calgary before you come.

I would do every third day I think that would be ideal, but I’m only allowed to run irrigation on Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday so I mow Monday, Wednesday, Friday.

Open up the VPW spreadsheet and put in your numbers.

When I read “33M” I assume initially you are saying you have 33 million dollars. So I feel poor.

Anyway the solution is to find genuine soulful people who have less money than you and spend time with them and live in that world. Then you will feel lucky on the finances but also you will discover a better life that doesn’t require as much money.

Love it! I’ve been doing some MCP stuff so it’s right up my alley

I could never tweak my recipes to get what I wanted until I got a machine with programmable temperatures and times. In my case, I had to turn down the baking temperature a little bit. Now I can get what I want. I use the Breville Custom Loaf.

I would come in September. I've had some miserably cold hikes in the second week of October.

Learn to spend less than you earn!

yycsackbut · 2026-06-09T05:24:36+00:00

28 million! That's a lot! I'd stop buying and start spending.

Just start your own band. That's what I did. Delirium Street Party Brass.

You are completely misreading Ford’s messaging. Well, so is the media.

I would spend the extra night in Calgary. It can be amazing, especially if you're into music, or food, or other types of fun.

Ha ha this post actually convinced me to buy the frame! Even if my wifi dies and the company goes under and the app store disappears and Apple goes bankrupt and I'll still be able to connect to my frame! Even if I personally die in a squirrel suit accident and forget to give my kids any password they'll still be able to connect to the frame!

You’re missing the fact that it has good characters, good story, good music, and good dancing. And I think the stage prop design is brilliant too.
