We had a local video store called "Film Buzz". I remember they had a distinct interest in promoting independent and foreign films, and they also had a film festival in our local park where they would screen independent films. Totally ungoogleable now

I know it's a flawed analogy, but this is reminding me a lot of the time Vicarious Visions made THPS 1+2 and totally nailed it and the second it seemed like they might get to make their own THPS game the rug was pulled out from under them and they had to go to the diablo mines

AI services company reports "wow the _rogue_ AI agent is sooo much more capable than we thought, wow cool, I mean scary", fails to report that it basically did exactly what a human commanded it to do. Don't fall for it again.

I am curious on the crossover of Steely Dan and TOTO fans. Is TOTO too "gimmicky" for purveyors of the Dan? TOTO was vastly more skilled than their limited commercial success would have you believe.

When I was a kid I was exposed primarily to Devo, Abba, and The Beatles, all of which had extremely memorable and ambitious productions on their records. I can't say the same for what I hear as a listener on the vast majority of The Dan.

Dark Side of the Moon hit me like that in a BIG way when I was 13 or so. This is nowhere near that level for me. Specifically Aja enters the realm of "recorded so clinically, it might as well have been synthesized" for me where I get bored, while DSotM has much more dynamic and memorable production

Fisher ⚉ @stupidmassive.bsky.social · 27/07/2026
Steely Dan is mostly fine Just sounds like the '70s to me? I guess that indicates how iconic they are. Engineers who use Aja as a standard are I think missing out on a lot of fantastic music. A lot of people point to Aja or Gaucho as "wow perfect album" territory and they don't move me that way.

This band I was in played a show at 242 opening for "Brian Killer"(sic) and our drummer (also named Brian) kept saying "it's a typo right?" He was right, but they did kill him anyway 😔

It's also funny how much the lore of the first game really leans into the eventual realization that the forerunners were human. Now that 343 has retconned that, nothing 343 guilty spark says makes much sense. I am hopeful they do not overwrite that in the remake.

Fisher ⚉ @stupidmassive.bsky.social · 13/06/2026
I'm also intentionally taking paths I haven't taken before to compare against the remake. Assault on the Control Room is a much more impressive level than I feel it gets credit for, a surprising number of satisfying alternate routes can be taken. The Silent Cartographer eats it's lunch
