Calling all people who love high quality #tools:

The Wera 2023 Advent Calendar is now available! I have thought many times about buying one in past years, but this is the first year I went for it. Especially seeing as I had a gift card, making it free.

One included item the site below does not mention is the little green bit magnetizer on the side of the hex key holder.

Why do so many people constantly repost content from or about hateful people? All you do is amplify them. You're not adding anything helpful to the conversation. It's like picking a scab.

There's nothing pretty about this hate machine.

I wish we could filter posts based on a specific image they contain.

I am getting really tired of seeing the same one constantly.

Don't let someone live rent-free in your head.

Especially someone the media is constantly bombarding you with.

You are feeding both internal and external monsters.

Removing your information from these databases should be a priority. #cososec

I'm watching some National Geographic docuseries that are heavily using this technique. I mean, COME ON.

How did the shaky handheld camera with abrupt zoom thing become a trend and how can we make it stop? Unless it's a battle scene, it's ridiculous and makes me want to punch the director and/or cinematographer.

Christian informed me that the audio track for this video is just from a single pair of Sennheiser MKH 800 Twin, in omni mode, into a DAD AX32R.

WOW. This is a STUNNING performance and recording of Bach's "Little" Fugue in G Minor, BWV 578.

Performed on the Hazel Wright Organ at Christ Cathedral, Garden Grove, CA

The organist is Paul Jacobs, whose reputation precedes himself.

Recording engineer is Christian Amonson, who I occasionally speak with on Gearspace.

Both are at the absolute top of their craft, and it shows.

I find these videos so relaxing. A pro tile contractor at work, set to great music (lots of 90s hip-hop).
