  Anyone here celebrating Steve Albini's life should be aware that this guy was an unrepentant pedophile: https://medium.com/@MoonMetropolis/now-that-steve-albini-is-dead-lets-reflect-on-his-admitted-love-and-promotion-of-child-fadf5072288e An actual quote from him: > The cover of PURE 2 is a guy holding open a toddler’s puny hole so his spuzz can dribble out.

• Surprised to see that the standard CO2 level on the space station is 4000 ppm

• Veo
