3·6 days agoIt’s a suitable song for a lot of people. Since becoming an uncle, I tend to think of my niece when I listen to it. (Which reminds me… I should text her.)
James Brown - Popcorn
The Real Me” by The Who
Here’s what I came up with out of my song sifting. I was going to place them in order as to how hard they might be to play… then I realized that wouldn’t matter, as it’s different for everyone. Ha. Enjoy.
Avenged Sevenfold - Bat Country
Bring Me The Horizon - The House of Wolves
I’ve been desiring to get back into videography as a hobby for a few years now. And after I upgraded my smartphone to a Galaxy S23+, which has greater camera sensors than my previous Pixel 2, I knew it was time to get myself a phone gimbal. I chose to go with the Hohem iSteady M7. It’s got a learning curve to it that I wasn’t expecting, really. So I’m still better learning and remembering how to use it still. Should be fun though, in a month from now.
I’m drawing a blank on songs with medical lyrics, except for Weird Al Yankovic - Like A Surgeon. While it has medical lyrics, it is not suitable for a celebration. Though… maybe you could find a desire and a way to use it.
As for songs that make you feel like you have or will thrive in a chaotic environment, I came up with the following:
I have my moments of joy in life. But I still suck at it, IMO.
Life.
51·12 days agoI can agree. But I also found that it kinda adds to the humor, so I kept it.
It’s wild to me that I knew without having to think hard about it, that this was Wesley Crusher. I haven’t watched that show in over 15 years!
Is that a threat or a promise? /j
I recognize EFF (Electronic Frontier Foundation) but I didn’t recognize the others. What is IA and FSF?
ROFL! This we enjoyable. Thanks for sharing. =)

After working several months at a grocery store that was supposed to ‘just keep me busy for a time’ while I looked for a better job and allowed me time to study digital marketing, I soon found myself in a dark place.
I was working at a grocery chain, making only the state minimum wage at the age of 29. I had no intention of keeping it more than three months, and intended to obtain a handful of digital marketing certifications and finish a course I had just purchased, all while working there. But depression, my ADHD-I, self-worth issues, hopelessness, loneliness, and anxiety… all got in my way. I found myself dreading going to work. I dreaded this becoming my long term future. Just over a month in (is my best guess,) is when I started to get suicidal ideations. I knew I needed to change things, but nearly all of the things that would help seemed unreachable for me. I fought myself for weeks, as to whether I was being unreasonable about my situation, or was there really a valid reason to quit and go back to working some temp jobs, while I pieced things together more. Unfortunately, my self-esteem had suffered some hits from my job before. And now I just felt stuck in a crappy life, all over again. Just working dead end jobs, and just to make that ‘all mighty dollar.’ My soul was in rough shape, and I felt like I was losing my mind as the days passed. I started to experience a higher and more pressing suicidal ideation, while at work and at home. I wanted out so badly, and was so ashamed of where I was in my life that I was considering death over any other alternatives. I bought into a lot of the falsehoods that my depression spoke. And I just never seemed to be able to stay afloat long enough to get out.
I ended up being fired after working there for 7 months and having been switched twice to other job positions, then working as a cashier. I had a lot of mixed feelings about it. Glad that I could move on, but knew that I personally didn’t have anything to fall back on right away. I learned a lot about myself from that whole experience, but the majority only came to me years later. Such as, it takes a lot for me to find a job, and once I have it, I won’t easily move on. Even if it’s heavily wearing on my mental health. It kinda broke something inside of me, and it would take almost a year before I started working again.
Many other things happened after that, but the main thing was, I started taking my mental health level very seriously. I wasn’t going to allow for a paycheck, to destroy what I had been building up for years and years to have. I wasn’t going to allow myself to sink so deep ever again!
I remember there being an app called RealPlayer that my brothers had installed on our family computer back in late 1990 or 2000. There, you select a 320pi that was streamed to you via the internet. Could that be what you’re thinking of?
edit: I did some searching and this very useful Timeline of online video, which might be helpful in your search.

Please don’t encourage the Christian Nationalists. They’re already making it challenging as it is.
I personally own a DataVac Electric Duster (with attachments) that I got on sale for just under $100. It might seem like a lot to pay, but I did the math and figured via forums that people tend to dust their computers 2-4 times a year. I’ve had mine for over 7 years now and it doesn’t seem like it’s going to die anytime soon. And why would it? I’ve used it about 20 times. It should have a life of 180 - 300 uses, but that’s just a hunch. It’s also powerful enough to be used around the shop or workbench for other things besides dusting your electronics. Just use a bit of caution while using. I tend to gently hold my fan blades while I focus the duster on them. It does well, and I then just use several q-tips to carefully wipe the blades clean of any lingering dust.
Here’s a breakdown of the cost. $100 / used 2 times a year / for 10 years = $5 a year.
I got curious about what compressed air in a can is now days and it seems to be about $4.50 - 5.25 per can online, and this was in a bulk buy of 6-12 cans, with each can being 10-12oz. While a can could be saved after using what you need, it has a chance of leaking compressed air from the can while it’s in storage. Not an issue with an electric duster. You don’t have to reorder cans if you just get an electric duster. And another selling point that was important for me, it’s a heck of a lot better on the environment to just get an electric duster for your PC than it is to have a pack of cans shipped to you, use and toss the spent can. And because it’s a compressed item, even after being spent, it’s harder to find anyone willing to recycle them.
Moving onto an electric duster was one of the best things I’ve done to help take care of my electronics. Especially my PC.
