@snacks I think people often misunderstand the difference between the statistical nature of reality and things being subjective. Everyone assumes that reality is either objective or subjective with philosophers arguing over that shit for centuries pointlessly, but in truth it's kind of neither.

@sun Looks more like something from Hieronymus Bosch

@f0x @bajax Some of them may just be Australians though because they are in that timezone as well. We have a lot of Australians on this instance, but ours I think are more of the funny variety of Australian shitposter on average rather than the primarily just edgy politisperg kind you see on poast.

@Inginsub All they had to do was stick to the first 3 lines instead of making a wall of text, but these people really can't help themselves.

@Inginsub A good thing tbh we don't need a world where a government can actually read you mind to figure out if you're a threat or guilty of racisms and imprison you preemptively.

@waifu I should have known the hapyday girl was actually a touhou character, but never realized that before somehow.

@Inginsub @Maroon @binkle 525 interlaced scan-lines is all anyone really needs

@Inginsub I thought some of them looked like touhou characters, but I wasn't sure because of the art style.
I actually never heard of the term "4x" before as a genre so I didn't understand what they meant by it. I guess Civ is probably the only game in that genre I actually ever played, so that's why it's what I thought of.

@Inginsub At first that looked like it was a strategy RPG, but after watching the game play it looks more like the old civilization games except on a more limited area and with anime characters.

@Inginsub It gets worse when you consider this was for old machines that the only concern was keyboard input and not something like a mouse which is significantly more annoying when it has latency or lag. I would saw anything more than mid double digits is noticeable really.
Also since they were working with CRTs they only had two sources of noticeable latency, input delay and processing time, but now with LCDs you have to add that as well. The true latency is the sum of all of the delays in the loop from user input to a change on the screen. Since the developer doesn't have a good way to check what kind of cheap displays the user buys, worst case should be assumed and just leave enough margin.

@Inginsub it was also kind of funny and comedic intentionally in the beginning, but it got more serious later on. I recently connected to another region server and replayed the beginning and realized I forgot how it was more funny and less serious back then.

@Inginsub also I was glad they went back to the city after weifei peninsula stuff because I was getting tired of the heavy handed cliche slop. "Erm I have this tragic back story, so now I'm blackpilled and going to summon this demon thing from another dimension to fuck everyone up (and wipe out humanity or whatever it's going to do)." (We saw this repeat like 3-4 times)
As far as the story goes, I just want them to go back to explaining stuff like the protagonists' abilities, where the AI thing they have came from, what's actually in hollow zero (e.g. what is "the wall"), and how did things get how they are. I also don't like how they tried to take it into a supernatural mystical direction for a while.

@Inginsub My paranoid interpretation of why he's pushing back so hard is that systemd has an intentional back door he was keeping in there for spooks who wanted to be able to patch malware into the boot configuration of targeted devices. Less paranoid interpretation, he's just extremely retarded.

@Inginsub Going from Michael Jackson immediately to death metal and math core is pretty funny

@Inginsub We had one that looked as good as modern good LCD displays at least, that was hooked up to a Pentium 4 PC running Windows 2000 most of my childhood. It was a Mitsubishi branded monitor but idk what the model was. It had a soldered in VGA cable though and it eventually went intermittent and I remember having to twist or bend the cable in order to fix the video signed when it got messed up. Thing was huge as well and took up almost the entire desk (typical of CRTs tbh)

@Inginsub @romin @kirby Ultimately I think everyone had their own interpretation of what it meant. First time I saw it I thought it meant something along the lines of the idea that "someone's got a screw/nut loose" (I.e. that post is a little bit off or crazy or didn't work or whatever). Bot is definitely the only one though that literally just used it as a reddit tier downboat button because she was too dumb to have a more consistent meaning for it and completely ruined it as a result.

@Inginsub @spectatorindex Everything he does is to maintain the illusion of control, so this check out.

@Inginsub I thought they were already selling those for a while? I don't have a PS2, but I remember seeing it talked about somewhere. I think they sell them preassembled with case for like $10 unless you want to do the soldering and assembly yourself for fun?

@Junes You mean I can't have a magic wardrobe that takes me to other worlds and meet talking animals and mythical creatures? Damn what a rip off
