Stop Making Sense is a live album by the American rock band Talking Heads, also serving as the soundtrack to the concert film of the same name. It was released in September 1984 and features nine tracks from the film, albeit with treatment and editing. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stop_Making_Sense_(album)

Talking Heads were an American rock band formed in New York City in 1975. It consisted of lead vocalist and guitarist David Byrne, drummer Chris Frantz, bassist Tina Weymouth, and guitarist and keyboardist Jerry Harrison. Described as one of the most acclaimed groups of the 1980s, Talking Heads helped to pioneer new wave music by combining elements of punk, art rock, funk, and world music with "an anxious yet clean-cut image".

P.S. These are in no particular order, and these people have no affiliation with me. So if I do anything wrong, you should not hold them guilty by association. It’s like if Adolf Hitler liked Buster Keaton’s movies; you wouldn’t start hating Buster Keaton. In other words, don’t be poo poo toward the artist people if you happen to not like me. However, I don’t think I’ve done anything too wrong or unforgivable yet, but you never know with internet humans. We humans are weird.

P.S. P.S. I’ve been trying to use human help lately instead of relying on AI & whatnot.

💻🐧 MoribundMurdoch’s Favorite Linux Applications (March 2, 2026)

Here’s a smattering of the linux software I'm into right now.

OS: Arch Linux (Cinnamon, X11) Philosophy: Flatpak-first whenever possible.

Why Flatpak? Because I like:

• Easy installs • Easy removals (no orphan dependency chaos) • Fewer system-level conflicts • GUI tools because I'm small brain

I try to keep things “noob-friendly Murdoch usable” — meaning simple, reversible, and maintainable.

Warehouse Flatpak package manager with a GUI. Great for inspecting, managing, and removing Flatpak apps. https://flathub.org/en/apps/io.github.flattool.Warehouse

LocalSend Local network file sharing without external servers. Fast device-to-device transfers over LAN. https://flathub.org/en/apps/org.localsend.localsend_app

VokoscreenNG Simple screen recorder. I mainly use it for recording selected screen regions (like area screenshots, but video). https://flathub.org/en/apps/com.github.vkohaupt.vokoscreenNG

Facetracker Webcam-based face tracking. Useful for Vtubing https://flathub.org/en/apps/de.z_ray.Facetracker

I’m considering the coinage Loquauxilant, “a substance or implement that aids or steadies speech, especially before public speaking.” Loquor auxilium -ant
