    I lost my tv remote (again) but I am asked to keep my room neat so I am not sure how I will look for it.

    Things my mother taught me:  Make a place for everything and keep everything in its place.indecision

    It's much easier just to look where you put it last time.

  • I have to keep telling myself: don't buy any Genesis 2 stuff. Stick to 3 and 8. DON'T DO IT!

    But... it is hard when some outfits look so cute.

    A lot of it will work fine with later generations, especially if you use some of the helper tools.

    I saw that the price of a 2 TB hard drive is now $49 on Amazon.  I should buy that hard drive soon.  I want to keep my 3D runtime files on a seperate hard drive.  Making a new partition on the current drive 2 TB drive is a hassle.

    there is a secret.  a way to turn plain cream cheese into pumpkin cheesecake.

    dunno the secret tho

    The ancient ones spoke of this...

    There is a legend of a great warrior who traveled to the far edge of the galaxy where the nebulas hide dark worlds none have seen since the first ones wrought their empires... worlds inhabited by nightmare creatures driven into hiding countless ages ago... from the darkest depths of this unimaginable place, that warrior brought back with him a device so powerful is is said to be able to destroy entire planetary systems in a single blow... and if one slides the blue lever to the right just a bit, it can turn plain cream cheese into pumpkin cheesecake instantly.

  • I haven't bought any new assets in weeks now... wait... I bought stuff 2 days ago...

    Tonight I go to a trip with my nephew to go visit with him.  For some reason 8 year olds are not allowed to drive, so my brother is going to drive my mum and me to his place.  I think my nephew is 8.  Wow!

    You should visit Renderotica then.
    I had to go there for armpit hair. My own won't work in Studio.

    I have a wishlist started there but since I've got negative income at the moment I can't buy the normal things I need. Girl parts, boy parts for girls, thingamajigs, and so forth. I'm a girl on a budget of 0!

    Which brings me to my first complaint of the day (though a budget of 0 is probably a decent complaint...)

    Daz life immitates real life: I bought clothes on sale and then tried them on my models and I wonder why I bought them cause they don't look as cute as I remember. Soon my Daz girls will have a closet full of clothes they don't wear often.

    But for fun I put Genesis 3 hair on a Genesis 8 model and turned the messy to 40000%!

    Ooooh, I like that! Would make a great starting point for a scary-floaty-girl horror scene! You could add electric plugs to the ends. Question is, are they 220V? 120? 12? USB?

    Hair plugs... Hmm... My knowledge of electricity is "it hurts when I get shocked".

    I'll put the floaty-scary-hair-horror on my to do list. Right now I'm waiting for my render to get finish the last 4%. I probably should do something else than watch it render.

    I went through all the wet paint I had the week before I started to Daz.

    I got a lot of tapioca pudding but I want chocolate.  I wish I could put chocolate shader on the pudding and make it chocolate instead of tapioca.

    I was going to make a scene but now I forgot what scene?  Maybe it was a prop for the scene I want to make?

    Conversely, there's always room for Jello!  Although, I like pudding more.

  • I have ice cream and dark chocolate and caramel topping! (The caramel may or may not contain ant parts.)

    I have a twenty gallon container of organic water.  I would not drink it but the water has organic material in it.

    I have a twenty gallon container of organic water.  I would not drink it but the water has organic material in it. 

    The other day I saw a product in Costco, called “Harmless Coconut Water”... it claims to be a “harmless organic coconut water”...

    I dunno... if the first thing someone says to you when you meet them is “Hi, my name is Dave, I’m totally harmless”...  That’s pretty much guaranteeing you that they have a suitcase full of human heads under their bed.

    Regardless of that, you should save the water and market it as “Probably Not Harmful Organic Water”... maybe do it as kickstarter thing...

    People are incredibly stupid and will buy anything with sufficiently outrageous claims and a ridiculous backstory.

    Problem is that my water is organic but it is also filtered.  I still will not drink it.  The organic component is very obvious (and they both have names).

    Microsoft is updating its terms but If I decide not to use any Microsoft products what are my options if I still want to use DS.  I guess I have to agree to the new terms.  I do not know how to run DS on Ubuntu and the computer will not run without Ubuntu or windows which is a Microsoft thing.

    When I had a DVD rom and there was a way to install games or software via that, I found it interesting that you had to agree to the terms of the item you just bought or return it.  However you cannot return an open dvd/cd and you were unable to read the terms until you open the dvd/cd.  It was so confusing.

    I saw on tv or was it YouTube a bunch of people tried to sell different bottles of tap water from a garden hose as fancy water in different bottles.  They did end up explaining to those people at the end that it was a joke but to show a point.  one can advertise stupid stuff and make it sound smart.

    The main reason I would not want to drink that organic water I store in the corner of my room is that I know what the fish do after they eat their food.   Most of the food gets eaten but still does not get removed unless by filter or water changes.  Fish water is organic because there are fish in it.  Fish create organic waste to turn it into organic water.

    I think I am bored but I need to go take a shower or do something useful.  I could paint something and watch that paint dry.  Right now it is very boring watching my computer do some updates or something akin to that.  I cannot do anything on the computer nor could I hurry it up without messing up the OS.

    Non-complaint:  I wasn't intending on presenting another music link today but I left YouTube running in the background and it cycled around to this performance of the Rachmaninoff 3rd piano concerto.

    I know I've gushed about the "Rach-3" a few times before but despite this not being my favorite performance of it, the pianist in this performance gets a wonderfully manic look in his eye during the tough spots in the final movement.  Hair matted, and dripping sweat, hands formed into claws scraping away at the keys, teeth clenched, lips grimacing, body bouncing on the seat, arms and torso swaying left and right as if balancing a boat.  I fully expect blood to pour forth from his eyes and nose, key ivories to crack and piano strings to pop.  After 42:15 he builds to insane intensity at 43:50 and when he reaches the top there is a scary grin of satisfaction as if he had finally beheaded the beast and all that's left is the mopping up.  But he's not done yet and proceeds to jump on the bleeding corpse until he's wrung every last note out of it.  This is how one should play this piece. yes  Rachmaninoff himself said (in Russian) that he "composed it for elephants" translated meaning that it was for heavyweight players, the truly intense players.

    Daniil Trifanov playing the Rachmaninoff 3rd Piano Concerto: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wBca3z7bAtE

    1st movement at 1:15

    2nd movement at 20:00

    3rd movement at 31:31 (no break between 2nd & 3rd movements) watch the pianist from 40:35 to the end.  Manic?  The audience enjoyed it.   The Rach-3, and imperial palace of music, almost always gets massive instantaneous applause and cheers from the audience.smiley  When I saw it performed at Chautauqua by Alexander Gavrylyuk a few years ago the entire audience of about 4000 was on its feet instantly, clapping, cheering, and per Chautauqua tradition for only the best performances, stamping of feet and hands on the wooden benches demanding "encore, encore".   He gave us 5 encores extending the program by another 30-40 minutes.

    I see a flash sale... I start filling my cart.

     

    I changed my mind. I don't see anything I absolutely must have. I also need to work on getting the stuf I downloaded from elsewhere to work.
