  • I had the privilege to see them live about 8 years ago and it was an incredible show. Dickinson has incredible stage presence; really puts a lot of energy into the show to keep the crowd engaged.

    The giant animatronic zombie freaked me out a bit. It was enormous and moved realistically enough to be unsettling since I wasn’t that far away from it. Most metal shit I’ve ever seen in person.








  • I follow Blender on Mastodon and, about a month ago, they started this campaign to see if they could double the amount of donations (from approximately 1% of users to 2% of users), and it’s been decently successful so far just by putting “Can you donate?” banners in more places (and posting memes about donating on their social media).

    Here’s a short video they put out about it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-v7Uhoot4Qg

    I think the funding campaign only lasts a month, so it’s probably about over (though donations are always accepted, this is just a brief social media campaign to increase development funds for FY2025).




  • I’ve started baking bread this year and it’s been fun.

    The “hardest” part is deciding to make the dough at night before I go to bed so it can ferment overnight. But the next day, all I need to do is throw it in the oven for 45 minutes and bam, fresh bread.

    I’m struggling to get the crust right, though. It tends to come out very chewy rather than crispy
