The many podcasts and archival endeavors of this chronically online man.

Let's christen this migration with a new blog post about a recent project of mine.

A static site for my local indie movie theater showtimes.

Tracking Local Showtimes

One afternoon, at the end of a long and productive work week, I channeled what remaining energy I had left into building my own static site to display showtimes.

Ghost has been yelling at me for a few years to update. And once or twice I spent a few hours trying.

Today I gave up on my old Digital Ocean droplet and started fresh.

The result should be the same old site. If you notice differently, let me know. https://jacobtender.net/

Booked my fourth trip to the movies this week. Anybody see anything good lately?

@tvaziri you are my feed’s resident VFX guy. I’ve been enjoying the threads on this tool for the last few days, but would love to hear thoughts from someone at a major studio.

How does this stack up to the keying tools at your disposal? https://youtu.be/3Ploi723hg4

It Took Me 30 Years to Solve this VFX Problem

@terinjokes @vampiress you can’t save it all…

Although for my current music blog, I do try to at least archive every outbound link…

@vampiress so true. “Nothing ever dies on the Internet” was a lie.

I’ve recently been gathering up Wordpress and Tumblr backups for any contemporaries that have and are willing to share them.

I think a lot about the fact that I wrote games criticism for years, including a regular column on a web site, and none of that exists now. Vanished, maaaaybe findable only in obscure links buried and found under a peat bog in the wayback machine.

@vampiress former music and entertainment critic here. While I was able to save *my own* publication (with some help from @terinjokes), sooo much of my writing was lost to time.

I was able to gather a lot of it over the years and republish it on my own website. Is that legal? I don’t know. But I figure if it wasn’t valuable enough to keep alive, it’s not valuable enough to threaten me over anymore either.
