anyway, first issue closed! #lofty worked great, giving me uniform support for *takes a deep breath* #Aac #Aiff #Ape #Flac #Mpeg #Mp4 #Mpc #Opus #Vorbis #Speex #Wav #WavPack 
up next: using https://docs.rs/unicode-width/latest/unicode_width/ to get me some tidy columns - length of some release titles is just delightfully absurd!
The closure of #Technicolor marks the end of an era for #cinema and visual effects, with over 10,000 layoffs devastating the lives of #artists worldwide. Its subsidiaries #MPC, #TheMill, #Mikros Animation, and Technicolor #Games, were overwhelmed by this decision, leaving projects unfinished and the industry in turmoil. The consequences will be felt for years, resulting in a loss of talent and prolonged instability for the #VFX sector.

Sad to hear the shutdown of #MPC #VFX. I had friends working in the Toronto and London offices. It’s an unfortunate end of an era. But the writings been on the wall for a while, with how #Technicolor ran these companies.
Hoping our friends and colleagues find new places of employment.

Music production: I get the impression that some MPC folks are rocking 30-year-old sample collections that have been passed down through generations, kind of like those sourdough people who brag about having a sourdough starter that’s been going since the 1600s. #mpc #samplers #musicproduction
