Happy 25th birthday to The Matrix! 🎂🎉🍾🥂

My body is a MACHINE.

An 80s IBM PC-compatible machine that is too slow, too loud, and takes too long to get started after nearly 40 years.

@HauntedOwlbear That's why I said I can never commit a serious crime. Imaging the media shitshow that's going to happen based on my library of films and games.

MIDI, are you okay?

One of this year's best movies - Hundreds of Beavers, is *free* on YouTube right now (at least in the US it is.)
It's like if Buster Keaton made a movie inspired by Looney Tunes and 8-bit videogames in After Effects.
No, this isn't a bit. It is *really* good. Watch it.

Seriously though, this movie is freaking CRAZY. Watch it.

I wanted to put this up during the spooky season, but the Internet Archive was in read-only mode then.
The MKV is just a direct stream copy of video, audio (English & French) & subtitle (English & Spanish) tracks, no re-encoding. Grab that if you don't want to deal with an ISO.

Vidocq (2001) is the 1st major feature film that was shot entirely on HD digital video. A French film directed by special effects guru Pitof (Catwoman) & designed by Marc Caro (The City of Lost Children,) it is a fascinating blend of fantasy horror and visual excess. It is also not very good.
One of my all time guilty pleasures.

This is its only US release - a single layer DVD that surprisingly includes an English dub. Check it out! https://archive.org/details/vidocq-us-dvd

I am a very cautious and safe Tetris player. My body *rejects* all attempts of trying to create a set-up for a t-spin triple. 😭😭😭

Them: where do you see yourself in the future?

@root42 Once I'm a cat I plan on expanding my horizons. 🤷
