Game audio and synthesis. Code and music. GenX-er. He/him. Subi on the Demoscene. Also the Korg M1 piano gives me ASMR.

This account is likely to fall silent now, but I'll leave it up for the time being.

If you are keen to follow me on certain other platforms beginning with M or B then I go by the same user id on both, apart from B needing me to use a - instead of a _.

See you on there. :)

Fabulous. I arrived home today to find two speeding tickets from Spain, despite not having been there for over ten years. ANPR really is bloody useless. >__<

@lunasorcery I was taking them for perennial rhinitis, so all year round. You and @Leiwaan probably have longer than that left. :)

[Sam Brown @r_tapeloaderror]

@lunasorcery Hey, at least they still work for you. Antihistamines haven't worked on me since my mid thirties. O__o

Upgraded the VHS capture setup to a SCART->HDMI upscaler and an Elgato HDMI capture stick. Results so far are promising.

Everyone, just remember tomorrow that sometimes politics is about making sure the least worst person gets in.

There are ALWAYS ways it can get worse.

Trust me @sainsburys, the one is not really very much like the other. :)

I find it both amusing and appropriate that the standard for measuring audio loudness is part of the ITU's "BS" series.

As an illustration, or possible damning indictment of my musical taste, the noise of the sander the decorator is using in the next room blended perfectly into what I'm currently listening to.

Calling all artists. This is making the rounds. There is hope for us yet!

Made the mistake of using WD40 to clean some old stickers off of a thing in the kitchen yesterday, and now the cooker is going to stink for a week whenever it's used. >__<

Christ, I had no idea that Duolingo had an ex-gamedev on their staff.

Apparently cannabis is now legal in Germany, which might explain why we're standing in the bus waiting for them to clean the plane.

Fuck me, Frankfurt Main airport, you've had OVER A YEAR to get some proper restaurants in Terminal 1 B. This is not what I expect from German efficiency.

[Sam Brown @r_tapeloaderror]

@PaulieHughes Well, there is a game compo too. :)
