One man's life is worth so much more than a retrospective Blue Sky "tweet". But I want to say something. More details coming on Saturday by those who were closest to this situation. I will absolutely miss you @thegamechasers and you won't be forgotten!

Last night I learned Dick Van Dyke, yes that Dick Van Dyke has been doing CGI work and animation since 1990 when he got an Amiga??
What??
Here's a video of him talking about USING Lightwave in 2004

This makes me so unreasonably happy

![qv 'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uRuLgar5XZw' 'what does Simon say about open source?'
It said (about this 72 minute video):
Simon emphasizes that open source has significantly increased productivity in software development. He points out that before open source, developers often had to recreate existing solutions or purchase proprietary software, which often limited customization. The availability of open source projects has made it easier to find and utilize existing code, which he believes is one of the primary reasons for more efficient software development today.
The secret sauce behind that one is the way it uses yt-dlp to extract just the subtitles for the video:
local subtitle_url=$(yt-dlp -q --skip-download --convert-subs srt --write-sub --sub-langs "en" --write-auto-sub --print "requested_subtitles.en.url" "$url")
local content=$(curl -s "$subtitle_url" | sed '/^$/d' | grep -v '^[0-9]*$' | grep -v '\-->' | sed 's/<[^>]*>//g' | tr '\n' ' ')](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:kft6lu4trxowqmter2b6vg6z/bafkreigxz2vjz4wfecgwtwkc27ms6iwha5ph3vjk3akga4yryx6jnp5fkm@jpeg)
