Radio downtime

I noticed that Furry Pirate Radio was disconnecting briefly every so often and it'd interrupt the stream. So I had to move the radio to another server. Had some brief downtime while doing so but it's back up and should hopefully stop disconnecting repeatedly.

Edit: Oops! Looks like that didn't fix Shit! : )

Later edit: Might be fixed now!

I'm trying to find the origin of the XD emoticon for... some... reason?? I don't know why actually.

Unfortunately most people in old forums I'm reading from are estimating, from what appear to be really foggy memories. Seeing around 2001-ish from a lot of people (which is around when I started using it, going by my own foggy memories) but plenty of people guessing it started around '97 with South Park doing similar faces in it. No idea if that is true though.

I'm also assuming this is like, potentially lost knowledge, especially if it was started on AOL (pain. because all the old boards from there are gone.)

Glitched video transitions

More work on my glitch gif generation, I've added video transitions between two videos (which can optionally transition to loop back to the start before ending). Below are two videos jammed together.

Doing a test of my blog update script. ignore this.

Radio station update and rebranding

Did a bunch of back-end fixes and improvements to (and turned back on) the radio station after nearly 3 weeks of it being offline, after I noticed the output of the LLM it uses seemingly degrading over time. For now, I've taken the host, Cinnabunny, offline and put up a new character named Kyuubit. I've renamed it (from "VRChat Pirate Radio") to a more generic "Furry Pirate Radio" so I don't have to tie it to VRChat.

Kyuubit's design was based on the pokemon Nickit, but if it was a robot. Her voice is supposed to sound like a weird amalgamation of Miku's, GLaDOS's and Cinnabunny's, though I will be doing some updates to the voice later.
