Excellent performance vs. Dahang at Quakecon today. Technical difficulties aside this has been an entertaining tournament.

It's 5:45 AM local time and I'm craving caffeine.

Goodbye sleep schedule.

Day one of Quakecon went more or less as expected. Major technical problems. Not enough games shown.

Quake Champions doesn't look ready for a major tournament. It looked like there were a lot of connection problems (and on LAN, too). The whole thing looked much less reliable than what I expect from a Quake game.

It is exciting to see some of my favorite players compete again, though. Cooller performed very well. As did Fazz (which was a surprise).

It looks like the stream coverage will be the new game, "Quake Champions". The duel competition seems more open than Quakelive. Round-based duel is pretty weird though.

Will be cheering for Cooller, and for any of the Australian players to place highly. Especially after Dandaking won an invitation to the event with ~250 ping...



MTT No. 025 / Miami's Vice

MTT025 Spectrogram

Some aggressive post-2000 electro and bass music. Right-click save-as here or on the spectrogram above to download the mix from aNONradio's archives.

This show (like most of MTT Year 1) is no longer available for download here. Get in touch with me at the email address listed at the top of this page if you want a copy of it.




Tron (1982)

The TV announcer voice says: And now: Tron. Starring Jeff Bridges and Bruce Boxleitner.

Taped off TV - Fox 49 KPDX - some time in 1995. (There's an advertisement for the Jerky Boys movie during one of the commercial breaks, which conveniently dates the broadcast). The screenshots you see here are of an x264 (CRF 23) digital recording of an EP Mode VHS tape. I wonder how many generations down the line this is.

This is how I've always watched Tron. Low-res, 4:3 pan & scan, edited, with commercials.

Ninja III: The Domination. VHS, bought for $1 at my local Goodwill. An ex-Hollywood Video tape.

Recorded/digitized with ffmpeg, an old BT848 card, and FreeBSD. 40G raw (QP 0) x264, compressed down to a CRF 21 1.7G x264 mkv.

A pretty good looking tape. Much better than some others I've done recently.
