Found some more unintentional #glitchart.
I think this one had to do with a botched shift from 8bit to signed 16bit. And some sort of chroma desync too.

Left: using embedded ICC profile
Right: not using the embedded ICC profile and assuming its sRGB.
Yes, they can appear in JPEG (rarely), PNG (often), TIFF (very often), WEBP (never, don't use webp), JPEG2000 (aliens), mov/mp4 (never). They can do anything to the colors.
If you want proper, reproducible colors use a player that supports using both an embedded ICC profile and a display-specific profile, like mpv. And I don't think any other viewer/player supports such. But editors like gimp do.

Things that are in my .zshrc but should be the default in every POSIX-compliant shell ever: fsgrep "*.h" "string"
Searches recursively through all subdirectories for files matching the pattern, then searches the files for a given string and reports where it found it and in which lines.

The Revenant from Doom 3 has IMO the best monster design out of any game or other I've seen.
You can create as many variations of a medieval dragon as you'd like but in the end it'll still be a boring old dragon. Or you can copy trolls and make them as big as you'd like but they'll still be a cyberdemon.
The Revenant is a rocket-backpack-laucher wielding skeleton with a semi-translucent skin that makes terrifying growls and has a very damaging claw attack. That's originality you don't see often.

Okay albums with a few hits, impressive cover art.

36C3's livestreams! Are VP9!!! With Opus audio!!!.
I've never ever seen a VP9 livestream before, not even from google nor twitch nor anyone!
Huge credits to the 36C3's streaming team.
Their dash stream is buggy though, as expected of dash, their webm fallback stream is better.

Some more unintentional(?) #glitchart happening because of that.
Oh and Twitch have been saying how they'll introduce VP9 for lower-quality transcodes of streams for 1.5 years now. Still not happening, despite them saying at demuxed this year it was almost done. Some people even believed its already used.
It would be bad quality anyway because it'll be FPGA-encoded, so probably worse than any hardware decoder.

Twitch started messing up their timestamps even more about a month ago. Random ~30 second discontinuities.
Result: demuxers split incomplete packets and players break their state waiting for past segments.
No, ads aren't even being inserted. If they were, it wouldn't be so bad since a jump to PTS 0 is something players can cope with usually. No, they're not even signalling a discontinuity in the playlist.
This proves Twitch's engineers are high on bad acid or they outsourced some apes to do it.

Official name: M・A・O
Never been credited under anything other than Mao and that either.
Respect to her and her colleague, as someone who can relate.

Mao from Wakaba Girl is voiced by MAO. And calls herself Mao (third person) too.
I bet Mao had so much fun.

Just regular JPEG artifacts, but on Google Earth? And only on one camera too? Weird.

Track 2 is just too good to not share...

Leaving Japan: stocking up with enough Pocari and making sure to have enough Suica charge to cover a ticket and a conbini trip for when you return.

And yes, the person responsible for this track is also responsible for a lot of the Ridge Racer OST tracks(!).
Here's another one because Hiroshi Okubo is a god.

Sucks I didn't get to present this but oh well, maybe some other time. Going to post the title page anyway.
I really hate all renting agents.
Can't really present it elsewhere because its really technical, and not even demuxed people are that technical (unless its about live ad insertion in DASH OTT streaming, so they're completely useless). FOSDEM people are borderline comatose at best and really not technical.
You can always admire the code though, in libavutil/tx_template.c

Marginally #TLMC related, Diverse System's AD: HOUSE series are my favorite as far as doujin things go, though they're pretty much an indie label that happens to go to M3 and Comiket and organizes joint albums like these.
Yes, that's cover art by Mika Pikazo. Yes, I own all AD: HOUSE albums, some still unwrapped because I bought them on bandcamp too. And the artbook. And tshirts which I won't wear like ever. And clear folders which weren't even sold!
Yes, that's the classiest house music made.

Some S𝐲aro for cheering up.

They do jazz and occasionally big band. Comfy to listen to.
