While one side of my brain is kinda grossed out about it, the other is singing detachable penis to the chorus of Personal Jesus.

Obviously, there are elements to 'Detachable' about male identity that are there, but not really overtly there. For the person who wants to find it, it's there. I don't know. I don't think... I like to think I'm not obvious about the humor, and I'm not obvious about the feelings, either.[9]

Despite labeling it one, Twitter is not presenting you a gif, it's presenting an MP4 but with layers on top to make it harder to save.

gifs should be obsolete now that embedded video clips can be higher quality and less filesize but the internet as a whole certainly isn't making sharing mp4s as easy

On Limewire this was an "unreleased" Blink182 song. It caused a whole thing at my high school, for a week or something everyone was listening to sushi james.

I don't think that happens anymore? Maybe random tracks get put up on soundcloud by the wrong artist, I dunno.

The default case is ugly like a dry poop on a stick but I'm honestly pretty amazed RMC managed to pull it off. Functionally it looks amazing.

Another song I remember was VNV Nation - Honour being all over file sharing claiming to be The Tapeworm Project - Slowdriver. This was a huge teaser for NIN and A Perfect Circle fans since the band existed for almost 10 years, but they never released any music.

Yeah the multisystem case is kinda fugly, but I commend their efforts to simplify everything into one addon board.

There's a similar project called Ironclad Plus that turns the mister into a mini-ITX board and so supports a whole range of normal cases. There's some chat about it in the retro games' mister thread, come post with us! https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3905256

Agreed, but I can't help but think that some hand-finishing to get rid of the 3D-print layers plus a new paint job would make it look miles better.

I understand why they couldn't do that themselves though, it would take forever at any kind of scale.
