Two things I never thought I'd ever see, let alone on the same day:
iTunes and Ubuntu coming to the Windows Store.

A volume control monitoring app in HP laptops, according to this, monitors *all* keystrokes to see if the volume up/down buttons are pressed, and keeps an unencrypted plaintext log file of every keystroke, *and* has an API to hand over data realtime.

@Firstaide I don't see the resemblance to Straxus. Best guess so far is that game's universe's version of Barricade from the live action movies.

@Polishdub No, looks most like a version of the movie Barricade, with the hood chest, door arms, shoulder wheels, etc. Even if it doesn't have the freaky alien-looking face from the movie.

@Firstaide It's from the mobile game Earth Wars, apparently the new Decepticon battle loading screen as of a new update yesterday.

@Polishdub Ah, thanks, I had to go looking at the toys to see the resemblance.

@vahnj Just got yip yip yip yip in my head and reminded of the sesame street Martians youtu.be/KTc3PsW5ghQ

@lapin ikr! I've been thinking of another account elsewhere to reach more people, but it's so nice and comfy here.

@vahnj I thought the stats said that, over 1000 accounts, even before I joined :o

@jk every single recommendation algorithm has given up on me and are just rerecommending things i have already looked at which in some situations is not a bad fallback

@Elizafox I was doing this long before the web was popular, felt no need when I was browsing local BBSs at 2400 baud. :D
