(Re?)Discovering a New Favorite Art-Form!

Note: If this is your first time to TotalFluff, please visit this brief explanation. Thanks!

Hello!

So, I recently found a video of an art-form I LOVE. I don’t remember if I’ve shared this type of thing on Fluff or not. But anyway. It’s paintings, with UV Lights. So, you get a totally different effect, based on what lighting you have going on.

There’s an example in the YouTube video below. Enjoy!

Hello!

So, I encountered a video of a REALLY FUN looking Star Wars thing.

It’s a… toothpick dispenser.

I never would have guessed a toothpick dispenser could look cool.

Live and learn, right?

Anyway. I’d recommend watching with sound off. Up to you, though.

Have a lovely Sunday!

New Hotkeys for Chrome, and I don’t know how I feel

Hello!

If a new trailer for Rogue One hadn’t come out in time for yesterday’s post, this would have been yesterday’s post instead. But it’s today’s, and that works too.

Anyway. On Thursday, I received an announcement from chrome about one of my usual hotkeys. Normally, “backspace” navigated back a page for web-browsing, “Shift + backspace” let you navigate forward..

Now, it’s “alt + (left arrow)” to go back, and “alt + (right arrow)” to go forward.

It does make sense. And there were times that the backspace option got a little annoying, since the browser sometimes thought I was trying to type stuff when I wasn’t, or the other way around. But I still have the muscle memory for the “backspace” functionality, and the arrow keys require a bit more hand-maneuvering in order to activate.

Oh well. I’m sure I’ll get used to it.

Anyway, have a lovely Saturday!

I take back yesterday’s complaint.

Ok, I now (once again) completely understand why there are trailers for trailers, and right now am no longer even annoyed.

The new “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story” trailer is out as of about 13 hours ago, and THE TRAILER is an amazing piece of art that is worth being advertised.

I mean, seriously.

The use of the Imperial March motif throughout the entire trailer sets the mood So. Perfectly. Yes, it is during the height of the empire’s power. It’s a slightly darker time.

And the scene with the AT-ATs? And imperial TANKS? Those were just stunning. And potentially slightly terrifying.

Given that the trailer was able to communicate so much, I’m now suddenly reasonably ok with it being advertised… even if it’s supposed to be an advertisement itself. It is worth it.

Anyway. Happy Friday!

I’ve now seen multiple ads for “premiers” of ads…

Hi!

I am getting somewhere between amused, annoyed, and confused. I remember a day when trailers were considered advertisements. And now, there are advertisements for not just trailers, but for premiers of trailers.

What. Is. Going. On?!

(And don’t say “the Olympics.”)

Anyway. Have a great Thursday!
