Let’s very briefly recap before continuing on our journey. We are trapped on a planet, orbiting a star that itself is orbiting a disc-like stellar system we call the galaxy, our Milky Way, filled with stars and gas and dust, and – at its heart – a huge black hole.
The new Norwegian Einmal Immer trio - electronics player Espen Sommer Eide, guitarist Stephan Meidell & drummer Øyvind Hegg-Lunde - opts for intuition and magic over reason and intellect, and creates sexy, hallucinogenic music. My review for Salt Peanuts: salt-peanuts.eu/record/einma...
Pre-order is up on my new album and new band Einmal Immer. Release date 5. September. Vinyl and digital. playdaterecords.bandcamp.com/album/einmal...
Yes position estimate but also "zooming" in and isolating that particular sound at that spot from background noise etc...
I have also been testing to try to accomplish beamforming, do you have anything like that planned?
Amazing stuff. A challenge is the precision needed in placement in the field to make it work. How to accomplish that in cases where one does not have a football field for measurement. Any ideas?

Visited @archive.org today - what a lovely organization. I became an even bigger fan.
The servers in pic 2 are their primary servers (well, 10% of them) located in a non-climate-controlled church hall. "We use the heat they produce, and if it's ever too hot - we open a window."

One of the greatest moments on television. The Midnight Special should be taught in schools across America.

Jeg anbefaler å bytte til Microsoft SwiftKey man installerer som nytt keyboard på iphone. Tusen ganger bedre :-)
Vi må aldri slutte å spørre om hvor langt staten kan gå i overvåkingen av vår digitale kommunikasjon. Dommen i Oslo tingrett åpner for en massiv overvåkningspraksis uten klare begrensninger. #nedkjølingseffekt. Takk til Stiftelsen Tinius. @jonwesselaas.bsky.social

Supposedly #Americans are mad about Trump but the only thing I'm seeing is a few dozen people at a Tesla dealership or a few hundred or maybe a couple thousand protesting cuts. Until the streets are flooded with 10s of thousands (like Budapest), my opinion is you're too damn lazy to save democracy.
A digital graphic with a blue background displaying Article 5 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The text reads: “No one shall be subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment.” Key words such as “No one,” “torture,” “cruel, inhuman,” and “degrading treatment or punishment” are highlighted in bold. The Human Rights Index logo, featuring a raised fist, is placed at the bottom of the image.
Article 5 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. ⚖️🌍
➡️ No one should be subjected to torture or degrading treatment. These practices have no place in a just world.

Just a quick reminder that Europe's population is twice that of USA. There is potential
Russia does not want to end the war, and the Trump administration has shown no ability to induce Russia to end the war. And so, predictably, the Trump administration blames the victim, blames Ukraine.
If you need a magical humanist break from your feed I recommend watching the films of Alice Rohrwacher. Just watched Happy as Lazzaro. Excellent as always.
På bagskærmen ser vi fødder gå rundt i det som tilsyneladende er en stenørken, men underlaget gynger, og vand trænger op nedefra. En underlig, hvid genstand, måske med magiske kræfter, begynder at spille en rolle. Ny tekst @vagant1988.bsky.social www.vagant.no/verdensteatr...
Todays word: Consostalgie - the nostalgia for the era when we (thought) we could consume without limits. (from the book "Les temps nouveaux" 2025)
