Since then, he's expanded into photographing local events and protests, and into promoting the art of working in the traditional darkroom. The conversation goes from camera gear, darkroom practices, coffee, some politics, and a little bit of subject matter!  Web: https://www.darkroastarts.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/darkroastarts YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@darkroastarts

Because maker and taker were supposed to use the same miner fee, a malicious taker could push a bad fee value through the transaction math and shrink the multisig output to 0.001 BTC while sweeping the rest into the taker's change.

Hey everybody! Welcome back to the second and final volume of The Loupe Guroo Musical Experience: The Collected Works! What does Loupe get up to in the second half of his WRYAT run, you ask? Welllllllllllllllllll... The King's crossing was the main attraction Dominoes falling in a chain reaction The scraping subject ruled by fear told me Whiskey works better than beer The judge is on vinyl, decisions are final And nobody gets a reprieve And every wave is tidal If you hang around you're going to get wet I can't prepare for death any more than I already have All you can do now is watch the shells The game looks easy that's why it sells Frustrated fireworks inside your head Are going to stand and deliver talk instead The method acting that pays my bills Keeps the fat man feeding in Beverly Hills I got a heavy metal mouth, it hurls obscenity And I get my check from the trash treasury Because I took my own insides out It don't matter 'cause I have no sex life And all I wanna do now is inject my ex-wife I've seen the movie And I know what happens It's Christmas time And the needles on the tree A skinny Santa is bringing something to me His voice is overwhelming But his speech is slurred And I only understand every other word Open your parachute and grab your gun Falling down like an omen, a setting sun Read the part and return at five It's a hell of a role if you can keep it alive But I don't care if I fuck up I'm going on a date With a rich wife lady Ain't life great? Give me one good reason not to do it (Because we love you) So do it This is the place where time reverses  And dead men talk to all the pretty nurses Instruments shine on a silver tray Don't let me get carried away Don't let me get carried away Don't let me be carried away Alright everybody, thank y'a-woooooooolllllllllll for listenin' and loopin' with the guru of loops himself, Loupe Gooru, or Loupothy Albus Severus Gooru for long, or DJ Loupothy Albus Severus Gooru-Coyote for slightly longer! We hope you enjoyed your experience with The Loupe Gooru Musical Experience in its entirety, because this is literally all there is and all there'll ever be. It's too late for us to change anything now, so if you had notes this whole time, you shoulda listened to us and let us know back when we were still on the air sometime during, I dunno, THE PAST SEVEN YEARS?! Loupe would never say this to any one of you ungrateful motherfuckers but you pieces of shit don't deserve him, or any of WRYAT for that matter. Seven fucking years and you couldn't be fucking bothered. Seven fucking years. The reason you think we never have to put up with any of your bullshit is because we make it look like we're not. It's because we care, and we thought you felt the same way. Trust us, we have had to put up with so, so, so much more from you than you could ever, ever, ever know.  Oh, don't try to explain yourself now. No excuses necssary. The goddamn show's over now anyway. And good news: you still never have to listen to it! Virtually nothing's changed for you, so sit back, relax and take a minute to just shut the fuck up. Just shut the fuck up. Shut the fuck up, and then howl, damn it! Howl and fuck off forever! (Unless, of course, you did actually listen to Loupe and WRYAT, in which case, thank you so much!)

Hey, everybody! Howl yawl doin'?  Oooooh, that is so good to hear. Ya know what else is good to hear? Music, of course! And who hears it better than WRYAT's own in-house (sometimes literally) on-air off-book DJ, Loupothy Albus Severus Gooru? Or "Loupe Gooru" for short? Or just "Loupe" for even shorter but only if you're on a first-name basis with each other? For years, DJ Loupe Gooru spun wild tales and led WRYAT listeners down magical mystery tracks of all things music in and around the Greater New Orleans Area. This first volume of his collected works chronicles his interviews with musicians, run-ins with coyotes, musical musings, and calendar after calendar of live music performances & venues from 2019 through the first two and a half months of 2020 before Loupe mysteriously went missing. Yes, there was also that pandemic, but nobody remembers or even cares about that anymore. Besides, a lot of that stuff was largely unrelated to whatever was going on in Loupe's life at the time. Of course, no one's really clear on what's happening in Loupe's life at any time, least of all Loupe. You'll learn that (and so much more) listening to his body of work in its entirety, and every question about the man that actually does get answered raises about ten other questions that will hopefully never receive anything resembling answers of any kind. Hey, don't ask about anything you don't wanna know about, you know? Because if you know anything, it's not to ask about everything, because you never know what you'll never wanna know, even if you think you wanna know.  You know? Alright, y'all! Get to listenin' to Loupe at his most musically-oriented in this volume, and be sure to check out less music but more Loupe in the second volume if ya give a coyote's howl! Then give us a coyote's howl, would ya? Come on, it's easy! Ya just open your mouth real wide while tryin' to purse your lips together at the same time and go "HOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWLLLLLLLOOOOOOOLLLLLLLL!"  ...or something like that. I mean, the best I can do is guess. I'm a description, not a person.

Les open worlds sont-ils allés trop loin ?Avec Crimson Desert, Pearl Abyss promet un monde immense, annoncé comme plus grand que Skyrim et même plus vaste que Red Dead Redemption 2. Sur le papier, c'est spectaculaire. Mais en 2026, de plus en plus de joueurs expriment aussi une fatigue : cartes surchargées, quêtes annexes à répétition, durée de vie gonflée artificiellement, sentiment de ne jamais “voir le bout” d'un jeu. Pendant ce temps, des expériences plus resserrées, plus rythmées et plus lisibles continuent de séduire, à l'image du succès récent de Resident Evil Requiem ou encore d'Astro Bot.Dans cette émission, on débat du vrai sujet :la taille d'un monde ouvert est-elle encore une qualité en soi ?Pourquoi les AAA font-ils des jeux toujours plus vastes ?Pourquoi tant de joueurs ont-ils aujourd'hui le sentiment d'être noyés sous les activités ?Et à l'inverse, pourquoi les jeux plus linéaires ou semi-linéaires donnent-ils parfois une meilleure sensation de rythme, d'intensité et de satisfaction ?On parle aussi de structure de game design, de contraintes de développement, de streaming du monde, d'IA, de narration, de rythme, de densité, de remplissage, et de ce qui distingue un grand open world réussi d'une simple gigantesque checklist déguisée.Au programme :• Crimson Desert et la fuite en avant du gigantisme• Pourquoi les open worlds grossissent encore• Le problème du remplissage et de la fatigue du joueur• Pourquoi les jeux “couloirs” reviennent en grâce• Les contraintes techniques : streaming, mémoire, IA, QA, level design• Comment rythmer un open world sans le transformer en corvéeDites-moi en commentaires :vous préférez un jeu de 12 heures ultra maîtrisé, ou un open world de 80 à 150 heures ?#CrimsonDesert #OpenWorld #JeuxVideo▬ ▬ ▬  NOUS SOUTENIR  ▬ ▬ ▬

L'actualité qui a retenu l'attention de La Loupe de la semaine, c'est le revirement de Donald Trump sur les droits de douane.

[Rediffusion] L'actualité de la semaine qui a retenu l'attention de La Loupe, c'est le déploiement de la garde nationale américaine à Los Angeles, face aux manifestations contre les expulsions de sans-papiers. Et cela, sans l'avis du gouverneur de l'Etat de Californie. Donald Trump est même prêt à déclarer l'état d'urgence nationale. Ce recours à un pouvoir exceptionnel est devenu une habitude depuis le retour du républicain à la Maison-Blanche, comme nous l'explique Hélène Vissière, correspondante de L'Express aux Etats-Unis.Retrouvez tous les détails de l'épisode ici et inscrivez-vous à notre newsletter.

Nad Vrbnem pod Pradědem, přímo u lesa na úbočí kopce Loupežník stojí malá kaplička. Je zasvěcená Panně Marii Sněžné a je stejná, jako mnohé jiné dřevěné kaple, které v okolí stojí. Přesto stojí za připomenutí, odráží se v ní totiž do jisté míry osud zdejšího kraje.

What if brick‑and‑mortar isn't dying, but splitting into winners and roadkill? We sit down with Peter Smith, former Hearts On Fire president, columnist for National Jeweler, and sales behavior coach, to unpack why independent jewelers just had their strongest five‑year stretch while the total number of stores keeps falling. Peter makes a compelling case that physical retail is both a beginning and an end: a beginning for operators who evolve with data, people, and design, and an end for those who stay stuck in habits from another era.Read the full National Jeweler Article: https://nationaljeweler.com/articles/14583-peter-smith-physical-retail-the-beginning-or-the-endSend a text Send feedback or learn more about the podcast: punchmark.com/loupe Learn about Punchmark's website platform: punchmark.com Inquire about sponsoring In the Loupe and showcase your business on our next episode: podcast@punchmark.com

We talk with Ostbye president Craig MacBean about leading through volatility, integrating a business acquisition without losing its soul, and why staying focused on independent jewelers' wins keeps a vendor business grounded. Gold climbs, tariffs become unpredictable... yet smart operations, better data, and classic designs keep momentum strong.Send a text Send feedback or learn more about the podcast: punchmark.com/loupe Learn about Punchmark's website platform: punchmark.com Inquire about sponsoring In the Loupe and showcase your business on our next episode: podcast@punchmark.com

L'actualité qui a retenu l'attention de La Loupe de la semaine, c'est la canicule qui a touché la France ces derniers jours. Des records de chaleurs qui devraient se multiplier dans les années à venir, d'après les scientifiques. Mais le changement climatique pourrait aussi faire chuter les températures en hiver en Europe. En cause : le dérèglement de l'Amoc, un ensemble de courants qui maintiennent un climat doux sur notre continent. Baptiste Langlois, journaliste spécialiste du Climat à L'Express, nous explique ces mécanismes. Retrouvez tous les détails de l'épisode ici et inscrivez-vous à notre newsletter.

CELOU EPIZODU I VŠECHNY OSTATNÍ DÍLY V PLNÉ DÉLCE NAJDETE NA HEROHERO.CO/STUDION „Trestná činnost dětí se každý rok zvyšuje, jen loni musela policie vyjet ke třem stovkám zásahů ve školách. Činy mají navíc čím dál agresivnější podobu. Bavíme se o vraždách, loupežných přepadeních nebo ublížení na zdraví s těžkými následky,“ upozorňuje ve Studiu N nejvyšší státní zástupkyně Lenka Bradáčová. Děti podle ní často páchají násilí kvůli zážitkům a rituálům. V Česku pro takové případy podle jejích slov chybí detenční zařízení. V podcastu odpovídá také na otázku, jak vnímá spor mezi ministrem zahraničí Petrem Macinkou a prezidentem Petrem Pavlem, který považuje ministrovy zprávy za vyhrožování a vydírání. Řeč přijde i na chyby a selhání při vyšetřování bitcoinové kauzy, politické tlaky, úniky informací nebo na situaci ve Spojených státech, kde dochází ke zneužívání systému vymáhajícího práva. Bradáčová zároveň reaguje na osobní kritiku, s níž se dlouhodobě setkává – včetně nálepky „kariéristky, která neumí uznat chybu“. Otevřeně mluví i o osobní ceně, kterou funkce nejvyšší státní zástupkyně přináší. „Na pivo chodím, ale musím si rozmyslet s kým, kam, kdo mě tam může potkat a co tam říkám. S výkonem naší práce je spojené, že musíme být podezíraví. Ale smutný život to není,“ říká ve Studiu N. Podívejte se na celou epizodu na herohero.co/studion

Au menu de cette réunion des 27, d'abord l'Ukraine : une décision sur les avoirs russes gelés est très attendue.
