It's hard to completely whiff a satirical take at those weird dudes in giant pickup trucks covered in Trump stickers, but by God did BoldFrankensteinMir manage it.

The Current Releases front page series is another good take on how some of the unfunniest people in the world were given a platform to be extremely stupid. how it started SpiderHyphenMan posted:This thread is for the totally awesome and even more totally ignored weekly column Current Releases. It features four totally-legitimate film critics: Ian "ProfessorClumsy" Maddison, Martin R. "Vargo" Schneider, Montague "Legally Sane" Smythe, and Joseph "Jay Dub" Wade. Each week, 2 to 3 movies are reviewed, starting with a paragraph about the reviewer's Expectations, then a mini-essay on the Reality, ending with a score out fifty based on performance in five categories out of ten (also there's pretty pictures with funny captions). Each film gets a main review, and then under it is a much shorter review called "Minority Report" by a different writer (or at least that's the pattern as of late). It's really well-written and stays fresh with the occasional gimmick review. how it went Ralp posted:Hello Front Page Discussion posters. Respect the Mods and Writers: Please do not harass or intentionally annoy the mods or insult the front page writers. Triticum Guzzler posted:The essence of the criticism of the criticism that has been ongoing, at least on my part, is that it is bad. It is not good. It is really not very informative. It is not that it is bad to "care".

I liked the front page and it's what first drew me to the site, like, seventeen years back. But also the quality really suffered once the original group of writers peaced out and Lowtax couldn't find or hold on to any good new ones because he wouldn't pay them.

Don't know where else to post about it but today I learned that the lady from this viral video from ages ago https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3UgpfSp2t6k believes she's surrounded by spirit guides and was a slave in a past life, and now gives some sort of spiritual advice to her subscribers. Maybe she's so good at accents because of all the past lives? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LqaKqVYLVD4 It's like when the guy from Newgrounds started a cult about ancient aliens. For some reason it's really fascinating to me.

Famethrowa posted:to this day you'll encounter redditors screaming at each other accusations of being "poo poo reddit says" or "srs" the subreddit blamed for closing jailbait 10 years ago. Reminded me of this (from Wikipedia) quote:the user pleaded with Chen not to publish it, as he was concerned about the potential impact on his employment and finances, noting that his wife was disabled and he had a mortgage to pay. He also expressed concern that he would be falsely labeled a child pornographer or antisemite, due to some of the subreddits he had created. You know the names of those subreddits must be absolutely heinous.

The Kins posted:it was common practice on disc-based systems (especially ps3 with its real slow blu-ray drive) to pack in a bunch of dummy data to push the game data to the physical edge of the disc so it could load faster. it's possible some studios filled in garbage data, but i know for a fact that the disc image tools for PS3 and 360 (and I assume previous generations as well but I never worked on them) let you literally decide what physical sectors individual files went in, so you wouldn't need to "push" game data to the edge, you just put it there. and yeah, the outside is faster than the inside (constant rotational velocity == higher linear velocity on the edge) but the important thing especially on the PS3 was avoiding seeks, so you'd want to pack stuff that loads together in physical proximity to each other. UE3 had a concept called "seekfree" packages, where a package for a level or something would include everything it needed, even if that meant duplicating a bunch of data (you're paying for the whole disc anyway, no sense wasting it even if you are duplicating poo poo)
