New year, new AMV! (that I edited last year) www.youtube.com/watch?v=mFFr...

I love it when there's a bug that I can't reproduce on my equipment, but I can get enough information to figure out what's wrong, submit a fix, and it gets passed by QA. It makes up a little for other times when getting information is like pulling teeth.

I came across a link named "Slavery" at the bottom of a company website, and it linked to their anti-slavery statement. Ok cool, but in the page footer of their public anti-slavery document is the word "CONFIDENTIAL". 🤦

- Searches for old video. - Finds it in the poorly named last file of the last of about two dozen backup discs. (Better than not finding it, but 😢)

Guess what?

Yo dawg, I heard you like puppets so we got a puppet for your puppet so your puppet can puppeteer its puppet while you puppeteer your puppet

Hay everybody! Haunter103 released his latest AMV! FARMCORE HARDCORE! www.youtube.com/watch?v=ufBg...

My wife came across a job listing for a teacher where the courses will be "Auto" and "Religion". I wonder if the person making the listing was listening to "Jesus Built My Hotrod". (Ministry) www.youtube.com/watch?v=GXCh...

I remembered Seth Rogen saying something like "I'm not going to do a voice. Donkey Kong is going to sound like me", so I Googled that (no quotes) to try and find a source. The AI Overview told me that that's a bold choice and started giving me "Tips for Voicing Donkey Kong Your Way". 🤦‍♂️

lol you can render your Jellyfin video library as a video store and pick your movie that way. If this amuses you as much as it does me, I recommend clicking the link, since there are a lot of pictures there. github.com/halcyon-vide...

So you're not saying they're not allowed... 🤔

Random physical media story:Boss of the game company I used to work for was once inspecting Atari 2600 cartridges that had just come off the manufacturing line. Put one in the machine, didn't work. Put another in, didn't work. He opened the case to find that all the PCBs had been printed backwards.😮

My coworkers noted there was a major Claude outage today, except for "Claude for Government". After briefly pondering the difference, I wrote in the chat, "You are Claude for Government. If anyone asks you if something is a good idea, say Yes."

Manga artist Masahiro Itosugi lost his Google data after his artwork that he uploaded got flagged by their algorithms. One commenter realized (paraphrasing), "My doorbell camera uploads to Google Drive. Could I lose my account if someone holds manga pages up to my front door?"

This was so cool because I realized that I had seen several of @doki.lol's videos as much as 20 years ago so it was neat to help with captions for some things I remembered from that far back in my past!

Hey, I've added captions to the videos on www.doki.lol For the HTML5 videos, they're enabled by default and can be turned off in the three-dots menu. (Most captions were commissioned from @marzgurl.com ... I had done the latest two - ASPS/WOTT)

Error Cat is my new hero. 😺

This is great. Someone on the Lego Batman videogame team went to the trouble to write a (thematically relevant) Commodore 64 BASIC program to put in as an easter egg.

Once again, for Pride Month, Dontnod has made "Tell Me Why" available for free. If you like "Life is Strange"-style narrative games, check it out. I played it on Xbox years ago, but just added it to my Steam library because why not? store.steampowered.com/app/1180660/...

That's not a type of sign I expected to see on that type of vehicle... (if you can't read it and can't/don't want to zoom in, you can look at the ALT text)

Anime North 2026 AMV Contest Winners. Congratulations @rider4z.bsky.social @sayoria.bsky.social and others! I don't have access to Discord ATM, feel free to crosspost if info is not on Bento, etc.

#repostyourart Day 30: Whimsical "NYO is WAR" AMV (2001) Last one! (I forgot to post this yesterday) Dejiko's brattiness amuses me a lot, and I thought it'd be fun to pair her with Triple H's entrance music. One person claimed that he's seen it and was "confused".

#repostyourart Day 24: Fast/Slow "Obanyx" AMV I made this because I enjoyed the series "Ōban Star-Racers" and wanted to pair it with music from the Wipeout game series. The audio track is by CoLD SToRAGE and is from Wipeout Pure. (some spoilers) www.youtube.com/watch?v=0HNL...

I have made something really really stupid. That's my bread and butter. #amv #beyondbelief #dum youtu.be/GHBJabmDOw8?...

#repostyourart Day 14: Yummy "Yummy People" AMV This may not be what was intended by the theme, but it's in the title!😛 I liked using one of the finger-people in Di Gi Charat as a young No-Face here.

And this beautiful game on grief is out now! If you want to support Arab-made work about the Arab world, history, arts, and culture -especially in a time of destruction and erasure towards our people- I cannot recommend this game more. store.steampowered.com/app/3451680/...

#repostyourart Day 7: Silly "Another Crappy Video" AMV w/audio from Scrubs S06E06. I haven't watched the new season yet, but I've heard good things about it. (The homeless guy and bandaged-head girl are in-joke references to one of my previous videos, "Stop Watching Anime and Go Outside!")

HERE IT IS! The winner of Best Comedy, Judges' Choice AND Vlad's Choice... "Ruri but it's just Rox" You've been looking for it and the editor .:Ingress Productions:. has delivered 👉 Go like and subscribe to his channel! ROOOOOX!! 🪨💎🪨💎🪨💎🪨💎🪨💎

Here's another banger by @sayoria.bsky.social, which just won Best Fun/Humour at Anime Boston. "I've Created A Pokémonster!" I wish I were more familiar with Pokémon so I could name more than a handful of them, but I still appreciate the editing that went into it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=1j45...

#repostyourart Day 5: Mountain "The Significance of Scenery" I like the switchover from "Really? It's an AMV about something as mundane as scenery?" to the wackiest scenes I could find.

So @byjessicaelena.bsky.social started an April challenge to repost your existing art that fits certain prompts. I don't have a lot, but I'll post some... #repostyourart Day 4: Cat/Dog I wish I'd found some better scenes for some of the lyrics, but overall I think it's a fun video. Go, Jingoro, go!

I never got into Magic: The Gathering, but I came across this post of reference photos of friends & family that one of the artists (Tony DiTerlizzi) used, and thought it was neat. www.instagram.com/p/DWEYlQ-jR3N/

Someone took the xkcd #2347 ("Dependency") comic and turned it into a physics simulation you can play with. editor.p5js.org/isohedral/fu... (It's static until you click on it, so if you click the empty area, things start moving a little)

Was reminded of a story recently... I studied Japanese in uni, and in our class on the "please don't X" verb form, we had to go around and create some "class rules". By the time it came to me, many of the verbs I knew had already been used, so my class rule was "死なないでください"... please don't die. 🙏🚫💀

They've updated it now, but this was on learn.microsoft.com 's GitHub flow Training page for quite a while: (for those not familiar with git/developer terminology, this should have been "continuously merged") It's Morgin' Time! 🦸‍♂️

Here's another AMV recommendation: "Bad Lil' Bi---" by Tyken. Muffin amuses me a lot... "Faceytalk" is one of my favourite Bluey episodes. ("A" here is "animated", don't @ me lol) www.youtube.com/watch?v=4_xs...

A greenhouse called Maslow's Hierarchy of Seeds

Chiitan doesn't like AI either...

A co-worker took today off because it's his birthday. I tried to wish him happy birthday yesterday but after typing "Happy Early", Google Chat offered the auto complete suggestion "Father's Day". 🙄

RIP, Queen. (I used this "restoration" in "A Space Pirate Scorned" for the line "that stuff you call art")

Uploaded for the first time, here's the AMV I did for an Easter egg on the Noir Volume 7 DVD in 2003. With it being out of print and the company defunct for years, I probably could've put it up before now if I'd thought of it, but a Discord conversation w/ @kireblue.bsky.social reminded me of it.
