Sure, if someone ends up writing them all out. I don't have time to listen to the episode at the moment, myself.

I could not possibly approve of this more.

I feel like every registered user should "like" this post, such that Paul wins at life.


EDIT: If you don't know, that is Eddie Doty, in a framegrab from an interview clip from Eddie's doc challenge thing that a lot of us are working on, meant to emulate this.

Told ya.

Yay! Team "Spin!"

(For more stuff along those lines, you'll probably thoroughly enjoy "Old Man's War." Really fun read. Also, possibly, "Ringworld." Slightly different type of scifi, but the sort of thing I think Pandora would recommend for you if Pandora Pandora'd books.)

I can tell you, as someone who has always liked iPads but never particularly wanted to buy one, or at least not enough to actually do it... Mike's little iPad mini is really, particularly tempting to me.

For the added convenience of it being tiny and versatile, you lose some screen size you might want if your intention is to watch movies on planes. But if your intention is to read books on planes - perfect. Very lightweight, easily held in one hand.

And it's definitely big enough for passing around photos and whatnot. (It's a little bigger than one of those 5x7 photos from the long long ago.)

EDIT: Is Associate different than what we had back in the day? We had a "Store" that had things manually added to it, and when I added a particular high-ticket item that was only every looked-at / bought once, immediately after adding it to said "Store," I got the email.

Note, someone else said "yo, I'm buying a camera, add it to your store so you guys can get a nice something-or-other." I didn't buy it from the store myself.

Bathilda, would you be willing to send me your document with all of the text? I'd love to make an infographic out of this.

(It would say "collated/written/whatever by [you], infographic by [me]." I'm not trying to steal your thunder, I just really like making infographics, and this is outstanding.  cool )

I appreciate the thought, but I'm fairly sure it won't help us for you to buy it through us like that. Someone did that a long time ago when buying a digital camera, and Amazon got mad at me and said it was fraud because it was clear someone just did it to throw us a couple bucks.

As for iPads, I know nothing.

I'm so glad this is finally getting done. Thanks to everyone who has to jump through even more hoops just so this thing happens.

When it's over with, you guys can ritualistically sodomize me or whatever.

Yeah, those are definitely on the list. Potter moreso.

Great list, Bathilda. We'll be referring to that one for sure.

RoboCop has come up before, I'm sure we'll get there. As for Stargate... I only saw it once, but don't remember having much of an opinion about it.  hmm

Here's my second attempt. (When I do full-on Struzan emulations, there's no filters involved, it's just powering my way through a delicate painting process. This is just filters, for the most part.)

I screen-recorded the entire process on this one, if you like the look I can throw the video online so you can steal the tricks you like.

Lemme take a swing at it real quick and see what I can come up with that's more or less intermediate in terms of PS skill, but looks alright.

Can you dig up a piece of reference that is the sort of artwork you're trying to emulate?
