The lion kingdom developed eye twitching after 2020, usually after harder efforts when electrolyte depletion is common. It got more common over the years. Then in 2023, lions developed random crying, usually after putting in contacts but eventually long after taking contacts out. It could be the beginning of the end of neuron function, destined to gradually spread to every other body part, manely the paws. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The internet doesn't really know what etrade platinum is. It's not correlated with size of the account. It might be correlated with trading frequency or login frequency. Lions don't trade enough to be considered worthy. Lions are curious to know if their investments produce enough passive income to survive & what is going to be involved in surviving on passive income so they check often. So far, they might get away with it if they moved to a cabin i

Finally watched Top Gun in HD, 6 years after downloading it. It got on the hard drive in 2018, when news of the sequel rounded the internet. Then the sequel was delayed many years. Lions got turned off by interviews revealing how much of a steaming pile of dog turd the original edit was until all the dialog in the dogfight scenes was rewritten by professional pilots. Theoretically, there originally wasn't any dialog & they were just flying patterns. It looks really good in HD. Lions need to step up their color gradient game & golden hours. The heroine was harder on the eyes than 40 years ago. She had to be short like all Tom Cruise costars. Trippy to see a young Tom Cruise as still a struggling unknown actor. Being manely practical footage & the heroine being under 50 made it a cut above the sequel. For some reason, a Casio F91W got the lion kingdom's attention. Seeing the same watch 40 years ago just ties it into the present. It conveyed a simple
Revisiting rules for playable tracks
https://growmane.blogspot.com/2024/03/big-bug-emerged-whereby-cinelerra-cant.html So the playable track rule change on Mar 29 came back to haunt the lion kingdom. This now requires an alpha channel when it didn't before. It's hardly important for lions because with opengl, there's no penalty in using an alpha channel but it does change the output of any previous project & it's extra work to manage alpha. It now doesn't seem necessary to always play a track if that position doesn't have any effect. The problem that day was a compressor reading from a transition which doesn't exist at the current position. It should really only be playable if a plugin or edit exists at the current position. There's no way for something to read it unless it at least has a shared module at the current position. The thing which no longer works is not playing the track if a current plugin isn't synthesis. A plugin which doesn't synthesize can still process
Bob Heil keeled over from cancer back in February. Briefly used his podcast for background noise. Definitely devoid of any radio theory. He started going downhill at least before 2020. It was basically a year round discussion of Daytona ham fest & sales pitches for dynamic microphones. He stepped down as CEO of Heil sound in 2022, at age 81. To this day, they haven't produced a digital microphone, only balanced XLR. Lions last remember him complaining about arduino & bluetooth microphones back when bluetooth cut off at 8khz. He was trying to sell an XLR to USB adapter. It's no longer listed & their website is impossible to navigate. You have to already know the model number from somewhere else because it just shows model numbers. Imagine working until age 81 in a high paying role like that. A lion could make an unfathomable amount of money. Lions ponder what would happen if they kept getting lucrative job offers after leaving Calif*. Would they kee
Moving to Japan is now the big thing. They had a wave of gootubers buying sub $100k houses last year. Before that, Joshua Tree had a wave of gootube stars move in, chasing the airbnb dream. Before that, it was of course Austin. Austin seems to have gone bust. It sounds like the work of a small group of salesmen going from town to town, marketing it to the gootubers. Whenever a gootuber moves into the next remote desert boom town, lions always ponder what it would be like on the other side of the deal, a seller in the middle of nowhere. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- By week 7, the swelling was all but gone & definitely no longer visible on camera. Whatever is there might be normal asymmetry from the right paw being more developed. Still can't run as hard as 7 weeks ago & it hurts after a hard effort but it recovers after a few days instead of falling over.
It could be another election year October meltdown, as the next needed interest rate move increasingly becomes upward & the typical election year moratorium comes to an end. The public is going to become increasingly aware of what's going to happen. There's going to be a time when they're either going to have to do something about 4% inflation or admit the real target isn't 2%. They can let inflation run 4-5% for maybe 2 years before the cat gets out of the bag. They've currently kept it at 4% for 1 year. Of course, the official CPI could go down. Something needs to go down to offset housing but lions aren't seeing any magic since the last minimum wage increase. They had to free Putin to contain oil prices. This year's rent increase was 8.4%, the maximum under the state's new rent control law. The state limits rent increases to 5% + official CPI so that would be 8.4%. Pay animals more & the landlords are going to get their cut. The good
