In the middle of Shônen Book's publication, Shônen Jump began its run (at the time was a Semiweekly magazine and had no "Weekly").[4] Shônen Book ended when Shônen Jump became a Weekly magazine correctly changing its name to Weekly Shônen Jump.[4] In 1969 a special issue called Bessatsu Shônen Jump took Shônen Book's place.[4] In addition to the success of Weekly Shônen Jump, Shueisha created a Seinen version of the magazine in 1979, called Young Jump (now Weekly Young Jump).[5] Bessatsu Shônen Jump, later got renamed Monthly Shônen Jump and became a magazine of its own.[4] The seasonal issues of Weekly Shônen Jump are now called Akamaru Jump.

ok so it doesn't show up too well in the 'pos but some sperg bolded the "weekly"s to make sure that people understood that they were there or whatever

MissingNo. (けつばん Ketsuban?), or MissingNO,[1] is a Pokémon species found in the video games Pokémon Red and Blue. Standing for "Missing Number", MissingNo. Pokémon are used as error handlers by game developer Game Freak; they appear when the game attempts to access data for a nonexistent Pokémon species. Due to the programming of three in-game events, players can encounter MissingNo. via a glitch. The species was first documented by Nintendo in the May 1999 issue of Nintendo Power.
Encountering MissingNo. causes graphical errors and the mass replication of the sixth item in the player's item menu; the latter effect resulted in the glitch's coverage by strategy guides and game magazines. IGN has noted MissingNo.'s appearance in Pokémon Red and Blue as one of the most famous video game glitches. Fans of the series have attempted to rationalize MissingNo. as canon, and sociologists have studied its impact on players.

because linus torvalds wrote a kernel that enabled ppl to have a unix-like OS on their computer for free that was open source and RMS did write a few tools that started a package of tools which make that kernel fairly usable and its free as opposed to windows so that gave him legitimacy as a free software guy, and despite how hard he tries to preach what his version of free software is, he's still mostly known by non-yospos non-super-tech-nerds for "linux is free! i downloaded it for free last night and its legal! 0 dollars! windows sucks and costs money!"

well these days gnu stuff uses gpl which is absolutely not free and is highly restrictive in the rights it grants the "user". for modern free software you'll want to find things licensed under apache, mit, or bsd.

"...the biggest shitbag

The Pet Shop Boys version introduces a harmonic variation not present in the original version. In the original the ending phrase "always on my mind" is sung to a IV-V7-I cadence (C-D7-G). The Pet Shop Boys extend this cadence by adding two further chords: C-D7-Gm7/B♭-C-G (i.e. a progression of IV-V7-i7b-IV-I).[citation needed]

idiot asshole bitch who should fuck off

quote:

Every April as an April Fools' Day prank, GamePro prints a 2-5 page satirical spoof of their magazine named LamePro, which is a pun version of GamePro's own official title. This spoof contains humorous prank game titles, parody presentations and funny newslines, similar to The Onion. Many other game magazines have since been the subject of the jokes by LamePro.

Lamepro, however, is not without its own controversy. While some game magazine readers have seen LamePro as something to laugh at themselves and each other, some other readers may have been outraged and very offended at the types of jokes that it presents. In 2000, a spoof ad in the satire made reference to a then newer (and short-lived) game magazine called "Incite: Video Games". At an industry charity auction, Incite bid and won on advertising space within GamePro; in the spirit of charity, GamePro agreed to advertise its own competition, even though it could be considered vaguely tasteless (a mailman delivering a copy of Incite to a female's door, with the legend "It must be that time of the month"). However, in the next LamePro, a fake ad for a magazine named "In spite" was used as bird-cage lining, with the white-background ad saying "You get what you pay for," making reference to the first Incite issue costing 99 cents on newsstands. The following month, Incite responded in their Letters To The Editor section, spouting off in their subwords "Get it, GamePROSE," and many supposed fans of their magazine defending them against the spoof ad. During the remainder of the magazine's 10-month lifespan, Incite ran the "GamePROSE" quote in every issue.

In 2005, another spoof advertisement had a similar effect, and also had an even greater controversy. The spoof was on account of gaming supersite IGN. Once again, on a white background, the ad showed a phony game site screenshot, with a logo similar to IGN's, spelling out "GNO.com" and the phrase "You can't spell ignorance without GNO." This sparked a letter to one of IGN's staff members who does a weekly feedback column on the site, and, in answering to one's e-mail concerning the spoof, mentioned humorlessly that GamePro wasn't mature at all for taking such a shot at IGN.

However, that was not the biggest concern in the 2005 edition. Just a few weeks after the issue hit newsstands, word came out that there was an actual site on the internet that had the address GNO.com. The site was actually an internet publishing site, and GamePro a few months later ran an apology in their letters section, saying that they had no prior knowledge about the site existing before the issue had been released. It is apparent that the 2 sides had made peace, as no civil suits of any kind were filed (it is unclear if such was even being planned).

LamePro has since been dropped altogether as of the April 2007 issue during the magazine overhaul redesign.
