Artistic Process in a nutshell.

Virtual Reconstruction of the Horrea Piperataria (the spice market in Rome) during the the early 2nd century CE. You can see the Colosseum (actually called the Flavian Amphitheatre), and the colossal estatue of emperor Nero near it. The statue was later modified by Nero's successors to represent the sun god Sol. Some theorized that later emperors would also add their face to the statue, turning themselves into the god as well. By PAR, Arqueología y Patrimonio Virtual, under 3D Stoa. Made along other reconstructions for the exhibition From Sharjah to Rome Along the Spice Route”, on display from February 3 to April 23, 2025 in Rome. https://3dstoa.com/en/proyecto/virtual-reconstruction-of-the-horrea-piperataria-rome-2nd-century-ad/

A bit pet peeve I have regarding Ancient Rome is when people calls anything resembling a roman area a "Colosseum". No, what you want to say is "Amphitheatre". The Colosseum is a very specific amphitheater in Rome, it is called that way because it was near a colossal statue of Nero (now lost).

Gershwin is certainly curious about it

I've been using my phone in black and white for the last few days and it's wild.

On screens i am seeing things in mostly black and white even if they're in color but vibrant things are waaaaaay more lush. It's strange

The new Gorillaz album is incredible

The watchtower rises above the treetops where most of the island can be observed. It is the command center for sorties against the air pirates. It’s also the place for hot jungle waiting while the laundry hangs to “dry.”

I remember when I couldn't play this at all and now I'm at this after just 4 days of normal practice

The whole point of defending the right for uncomfortable, or even reprehensible fiction to have the right to exist isnt that its all cool and nothing is ever wrong with it

Its that government/corpo organizations will NEVER look at things with the """nuance""" you think is so self evident

Many times I'm met with "sorry we can't do that" and no explanation. I'm the only user of you computer, give me all the info so I know how to stop that from happening

It always takes multiple times to do something to

A simple search for a program to open (outlook), I type it in and nothing happens. Why do people put up with this

Windows is such a chore to use in like every aspect

Love when it randomly can't boot up and leads me to needing to force restart

Selling my *very slightly* cursed laptops to balance my nerd budget. This is a 2007 Vista-era laptop I bought as new-old-stock in 2021 from a company that does IT for defense contractors.

It's got S-Video, VGA, and HDMI out, for some reason! And a 512 GB SSD.

$100 + shipping, or local-ish pickup.

How the e-mail finds me

A playful poster graphic featuring flat illustrations of national postal services around the world that use bird logos. From March 2022

Postal services around the world that use birds as logos. One of my favorite poster graphics I've made! 🐦✉️

It's got a 2.8 GHz *Desktop* Pentium 4, 1 GB RAM, ATI Radeon IGP 345M, and the original spinning disk was replaced with a 120 GB SSD. It can easily be reset to factory settings using the recovery partition, which was preserved in the drive change. The CPU was repasted a year ago. The display is a very crisp XGA (1024x768) LCD panel, which doesn't have ghosting issues. It's great fun for RollerCoaster Tycoon, but it can handle somewhat more demanding games as well. It's got the original power supply. Being a 20-year-old laptop, there are some caveats: First of all, it weighs eight pounds, lol. I've found one stuck pixel, but it's stuck as black, so it's not super noticeable. There is a DVD drive, but it unfortunately doesn't work. It'll also need a new CMOS battery. The actual device battery doesn't hold a charge, but it used a *Desktop* Pentium 4, so it maybe got 90 minutes battery life when it was new.

The Vaio, in action.

Between a recent trip to Japan and buying a new laptop, my nerd budget is in a significant deficit.

Anyone want to buy a *very slightly* cursed Sony Vaio? $100 plus shipping, or local-ish pickup.
