No reason for anyone to watch these unless it's already in your history (I know so for some members) or you're curious of Star Trek alternatives. Important to remember Martin Landau rejected being Spock to take over this "Kirk". The much bigger change was UFO to Space:1999.

So how much are the Drop HD8XXs worth now?

Interesting that Sonova sounds a little Etymotics-like, who sold their consumer audio business recently.

Maybe Sonova can better help that guy in Sound of Metal now?

Took a break from work to empty and scrub clean the kitty litter box. Put it on the patio to dry and when I returned some birds had used it for target practice. 🤦♂️

I've been a bit focused on Garry Winogrand over the last couple of weeks. First to really popularize that 28mm FL, so popular on cell phones, and was a relentless shooter some call "the first digital photographer", though it was all on film. If you don't already know him and are curious, see below. There's a great doc too, trailer first. -
Thanks for all the work, and especially time, you've put into this Todd.

If you need a laugh this Apple Music review is pretty fun. Poor Steve Jobs’ ghost.

If there are any Eggers fans here, he's giving the eBook version of his latest, The Captain and the Glory, away free. https://store.mcsweeneys.net/products/the-captain-and-the-glory-e-book “A very short, allegorical novella, but capacious enough for all of your emotions about this period in history, from amusement to grief to irony to horror… As good as you can imagine, and ultimately, almost a hallucination of hope.” —Virginia Heffernan, Slate’s Trumpcast

G. Gordon Liddy, Mastermind Behind Watergate Burglary, Dies at 90 This is the obit he deserves. Born George Gordon Battle Liddy in New Jersey in 1930, he is said to have been a frail boy who was inspired by the rousing radio speeches of Adolf Hitler that residents in his German American neighbourhood were listening to at the time. "If an entire nation could be changed, lifted out of weakness to extraordinary strength, so could one person," he wrote in his autobiography Will, recalling how he roasted and ate a rat at the age of 11 in order to overcome his fear of rodents. Some of the extreme ideas he, and colleague Howard Hunt, a former CIA officer, came up with - from plotting to kill Nixon critics to kidnapping anti-war protesters - never got the go-ahead, but their plan to bug the Democratic National Committee offices did.

Larry McMurtry, author of The Last Picture Show, Terms of Endearment, Lonesome Dove, and Brokeback Mountain dies at 84. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-56542882 I’m always going to remember him though for All My Friends Are Going to Be Strangers, a novel about not fitting in in San Francisco, while wasting time at the cinemas, a book I read when I moved to San Francisco and wasted lots of time in cinemas.
