It's meme time
Tämä on antanut odottaa itseään, koska miten sitä muka itseään kuvailisi ja mitä edes haluaisi ja uskaltaisi kertoa.
Eli siis #esittely
Parhaan iän (42) ylittänyt ihminen Pirkanmaalta (junan tuoma).
Neuloo, ompelee, virkkaa, varastoi lankaa ja kankaita, rapsuttelee maaleja huonekaluista ja pistää ne osiin laittaakseen takaisin kasaan. Lukee ja haaveilee piirtävänsä ja kirjoittavansa päiväkirjaa.
Elämän varrelta mukaan tarttuneita ja siinä pysyneitä asioita:
#starwars - Obvs OT, olen sen verran vanha. Vader forever.
#rammstein - Kuulin Du hastin kerran Matrixin soundtrackilta ja olin myyty. Sittemmin tullut kuunneltua muutakin raskaampaa rokkia, mutta tämä poikabändi Saksan malliin on ikuinen ykkönen.
#keliakia - Not by choice, mutta minkäs teet. Muuten ei haittaa, mutta saispa mämmii.
#nimby - Takapihan metsän yllättävästä avohakkuusta lähti meikäläisen ympäristötietoisuuden ja luonnonsuojeluhalukkuuden herääminen. Ei sillä, että olisin kovin aktiivisesti tehnyt mitään, paitsi ahdistunut.
#perkele - Maailmankaikkeuden paras (kiro)sana.
Tykkää puhua itsestään, näemmä.
Ainiin, avatar on tuo oletus, koska se norsu on liian söpö piilotettavaksi.
Seems like Disney is trying to appeal to the Prelogy/Clone Wars fans or something.
I never really understood this obsession with Maul and how they've been trying to turn a "prop" into an "interesting" character. And now, he's becoming an anti-hero??? Weird.

Brrr... new introduction time cause my old one is already outdated lol.
I am Sinclair-Speccy, your local resident computer nerd that can’t actually do a lot of tech stuff like people think. My primary interests are #Linux, #OldTech, and #OStan. You’ll usually find me boosting retro tech content and occasionally posting it myself, mostly retro tech ads.
My interest in emulation all started when I managed to run Yggdrasil Linux from the '90s (I know, so interesting /s). Despite having used 😜 as my first OS other older OSes (mostly Linux ones) interest me more if you look at the media I've posted on my account besides the tech ads.
I’ve moved around a bit online as I started on .art as my friend was there, then bitbang.social and now oldbytes.space.
One of my favourite niche fandoms is OS-tans which is turning operating systems and hardware into anime characters, though I tend to call them tech gijinkas. I even have my own tech gijinkas universe that is hosted on my site.
As for some other stuff I enjoy #mythology, #transformers, #cats, #touhou, #fantasy, #nature such as #flowers and #plants and #animals, #steampunk, #starwars, #photography, #art, #space, #cyberpunk and #scifi... there is more but I'm not writing them all.
You can check out my website here: https://sinclair-speccy.github.io/The-Mainframe/index.html and I hope to expand it into a tech journalism platform or something, though motivation and its static nature kind of stop me...
Unlike in the past I'm not active as I used to be, sadly.

That one short clip scene in Star Wars: Episode IV: A New Hope, when the Rebel fleet is beginning to attack the Death Star, and Porkins, before he becomes "Roast Porkins", looks like he's regretting that Chipotle' chimichanga with extra guac.
Seriously, it's there.

So Kathleen Kennedy is stepping down from Lucasfilm. I already hear people cheering because they hate her, but these people are idiots.
Was not having a "master plan" for episodes 7-9? Yes, it was. But it was also thanks to her that we got Mandalorian, Rogue One, Andor, Visions and all the more daring projects (including the movies currently being produced, will they be good or bad, no idea, but I think they're also trying something different). ⤵️
@DavidBHimself I think by not having a "master plan" for 7-9, they were following in Lucas' footsteps with 4-6, and maybe even 1-3. With Lucas' public, written support of the #LOST writers making shit up as they went along, it became obvious to me that that was what Lucas has been doing. I do get the impression that Lucas has had a general outline of #StarWars plot, but not necessarily the details. I like what Ep 8 was *trying* to do, but I don't think it succeeded. I don't think the answer was reversing course and doubling down on the fan service again like they did with Ep 9, though. I think they should have continued along the path of Ep 8, but modify their approach so that it wasn't as radical, and made more sure they succeeded where Ep 8 failed.

Kathleen Kennedy is out, the nightmare is over.
Humongously big, amazing news for Star Wars and Lucasfilm! https://www.wsj.com/business/media/star-wars-gets-new-leader-for-franchises-next-era-05e9f763
Experimenting with shiny filament and surface patterns. Pretty sick result, actually.
