      I still can't believe that Ritchie Blackmore started doing New Age Folk Rock, even though he was doing that before I even started listening to Rainbow.

  4. The most insane idea that I know:

     

    "This company bought the rights to the franchise, therefore they determine what is canonical in it."

     

    Seriously, the more you think about this idea, the less sense it makes.

      This isn't in response to any specific development.  I am against the idea that rights holders can change canon, period.

       

      Suppose that Sherlock Holmes was not in the public domain, and that the best mystery author in the world bought up the rights and wrote a book which had an amazing mystery and perfectly extended the character arcs of Holmes, Watson, etc.  It would still be idiotic to say that this author used his legal rights to add to the Holmes canon.

      Mine is also a Logitech, G203.

      All three broke. Two started to double/multiclick. One broke when the cable just stopped working.

      I swapped the cable from one of these broken ones to this and it worked fine... for a month, then it started to multiclick.

  7. There's a lot more to my personality than weeb shit, vtubers and bitching about new technology but for some reason those are the only things that ever seem relevant to post here.

      I think you're good enough at articulating stuff that you could talk about anything here tbh (though those aforementioned topics are generally fun to discuss so I ain't complaining)

      No. You must conform to my preconceived notions and ideas of your entire existence, or you will perish.

      I'll meet you both half way.  I'll talk about something else, but include an unnecessary reference to Sailor Moon.

  8. Female skeletons got it rough, because the default guess is that reanimated skeletons are male cuz they're bald or they're a warrior skellington.

     

    The yugioh solution was just to give their skeleton archetype hair and clothes.

  11. Looking at the profiles from birthday announcements just tells me that this site was already dead in 2013.

      Half of TIAM 2 and all of 3 were after 2013, so there was still a lot of activity.

      It's still weird that the current TIAM started in 2015. I hadn't even graduated high school yet.

  12. If you drew a character designed as reverse trap, and then said that that character was actually male, would that be a double reverse trap?

    1. Idiot Cube

      That would be a disarmed reverse trap.

      Can't fail any resolutions if you don't make any.

  15. Today I realized that if I had an HDMI to component adaptor I could record my computer on my VCR.  Thus I could record a Vtuber livestream on VHS.

     

    Such a thing would almost certainly be one of a kind and thus in ten years would be worth either a fair amount... or absolutely nothing.

      Here are the factors which would maximize value:

       

      -Retro and/or Synthwave themed Vtuber

      -Unarchived stream

      -Vtuber not popular now, but gets popular in the future, thus making the recording the only copy of the stream (this would be the hardest to game obviously)

      Depending on how many tapes you have you could just scour the 2views list on Twitch and record one stream each to widen your net as much as possible. Could probably make a net profit on it ten or so years down the line.

      Record a playthrough of a vaporwave game on VCR, something like Broken Reality.

  16. Hey! I want you to have a good day today, all right?

  17. "We have not yet received your documents" is bureaucracy speak for "yeah, we don't feel like processing that request, what are you going to do about it?"

  19. Apparently GOG Galaxy broke when it comes to fetching games.  I'm using the old version, though I wouldn't be surprised if this happened in the new version.

     

    I discovered this when I decided to reinstall TIE Fighter only for it not to show up, despite me knowing for a fact I had purchased it and previously played it.  But it doesn't show up at all in searches of the library in Galaxy.  On the website it does show up, and when checking this out I noticed that I had literally one hundred more games listed on the website compared to Galaxy.

     

    I'm 90% sure I've found the issue.  Anything sold in a bundle will not show up on Galaxy.  So TIE Fighter didn't show up because GOG actually bundles the original game, the CD rerelease, and the 1998 "special edition" remake using the X-Wing vs. TIE fighter engine.  Similarly none of my Space Quest games show up since they are sold in a 1-3 bundle and a 4-6 bundle.  Anything with more than one entry to the store purchase won't show up.

     

    It had to have happened recently, since I successfully installed SWAT 2 about a month ago and that comes in a bundle with SWAT 1 (and neither game shows up in my galaxy library at the moment.)  DOOM and DOOM II even vanished from the galaxy version of the library due to the enhanced editions of those games being given to people who had previously purchased them.

      I've been playing Splatoon 3 and there's a track that is literally music (yeah yeah)

      I'm inclined to agree

      C-Side is better than most real bands. Don't @ me.

  21. Work that made people a furry by decade:

     

    20s: BNA, Helluva Boss

    10s: Zootopia, Pokemon (there were Pokewaifus before but it hit a critical mass here.)

    00s: Star Fox Assault, Digmon Tamers, Sonic Adventure 2

    90s: A lot of stuff, but most likely Space Jam or The Lion King.  I guess Rescue Rangers goes here too since it debuted right before the 90s.  SWAT Kats for kids who got in before Turner canceled it.  Hell I could probably add five or six more things; any kid growing up in this decade was doomed.

    80s: Fairly safe decade; only real Furry Bait was the Catillac section of Heathcliff and Gadget right at the end.  Lots of female animal characters, but I don't consider that inherently furbait.

    70s: Disney's Robin Hood.  Not much else, but it was enough.

    60s: Everything here is either "female animal with slight human attributes" or "female cartoon character with almost no sexual appeal."  These things only appeal to people who are actually furries, so it was a safe decade.

    50s and Earlier: There's some pretty weird blatant furbait stuff, the most famous of which probably being that "leg of lamb" joke in that Droopy cartoon.  But the stuff that would show up on TV was always isolated and unlikely to cause any real damage.

      On reflection, there were some important omissions:

       

      1960s: That squirrel from Sword in the Stone was pretty damn blatant.  I mean I guess she's still in the category of "animal with slight human attributes" but when she's hitting on the main character you can't ignore it.

      1970s: As a side note this is when the Fritz the Cat movies came out, i.e. the first mainstream-ish adult furry movies.  But no way any kid was getting within a mile of that so it doesn't affect this list.  A real omissions is that lion chick from the Star Trek cartoon show.  I guess you might throw the Rescuers in here because throwing Eva Gabor's voice on top of a mouse is just asking for trouble.

      1980s: I don't know how many people actually saw Animalympics back in the day, but it certainly fits here.  The Great Mouse Detective should also be included for that burlesque scene.  The dogs in Oliver and Company are kind of borderline; I mean yeah furries like them but I don't know if they would have caused confused feelings in children.

      1990s: Stuff I omitted: Tiny Toon Adventures, Samurai Pizza Cats, Road Rovers, SatAM Sonic the Hedgehot, Mirri n Magic the Gathering, Animaniacs (I don't know how much Minerva Mink actually made an impact considering how infrequently she appeared but man it doesn't get more blatant than this).  I guess we can throw Dragon Tales here as well, and to top things off this is where furry webcomics started to explode.  Kids were screwed.

      Since my flames create heat without burning any fuel, I'd be a clean unlimited energy source! I could save the world!

       

      And then big oil would probably try to assassinate me, thus starting my villain arc. Sure would be a shame if all their tankers combusted at once...

  24. Every time I get dragged into a real life political conversation I have to cut myself off just before I start using various phrases favored by Terry Davis.
