Last night I did a full rig test. This is fully outdoors, next to the sea. It can rain and all this still works.

Today, I was chatting with the big boss of the venue I'm building and a bird literally shit on my head, mid conversation.
Everybody told me it's good luck.
It did not feel like good luck. Lol

Today I spent 2 hours wrestling with a DMX Artnet node that just would not behave, only to eventually find a tiny note on the manufacturers page, pointing to an alternative firmware that immediately resolved the problem.
Mildly infuriating waste of time.

Last minute moving light repairs on sites.
Not ideal, but at least the workbench view is amazing.

Rigging trusses, always fun...
Lots of pixels. Tonight when the sun goes down I will address and configure all the pixels and do a bit of a test before the crane comes to hoist everything up.

Hey Jan, I discovered your channel from here on bluesky, which just shows how bad the YouTube recommendation algorithm is, because your content is exactly up my alley and I should have seen it a long time ago.
Your channel is super entertaining, thanks for the great content.

I just recorded a 15 minute voice over, without headphones on because I wanted it to sound natural, nailed it, then realised the mic was on mute the whole time.
Must be time for bed.

Today on the repair bench is the flagship DJ mixer from #PioneerDJ the #DJM-V10
It has a common fault, which is that the filter effect knob goes bad, because DJs like to get over excited and twist it whilst performing acrobatics.
Let's give it some love.

THIS IS HUGE! Researchers at Stanford University have developed a dual-antibody treatment that remains effective against ALL SARS-CoV-2 variants by targeting a less-mutable part of the virus. This breakthrough could lead to longer-lasting therapies that OUTPACE viral evolution. 🧪🧵⬇️

The only thing I do not love about living in Spain, is the generally crappy coffee.
Should have moved to Italy maybe?

I don't understand RGB modding gen 1 & 2 consoles.
The artwork in those games used tricks, including dither. The pixel art looked better using composite out.
When you RGB mod, none of those tricks work and you aren't viewing the game as the designers intended.
