  • I do sound professionally and I originally learned to track on 2" magnetic tape. Our one digital console had something like 24 channels (which was cutting edge at the time) and every channel required a $40k card slotted into this proprietary rack costing god know how much. Now, any cheap laptop can be an audio rig that has basically unlimited channels and enough DSP to basically do anything they want. Nothing like slicing tape with a razor hoping your edit was right. Also, navigating a patch bay that looks like spilled spaghetti to pop a single channel of compression on a track.

  • Just couple of geriatrics now.

  • Fear Inoculum is over 6 years old already. That still feels brand new to me. Especially since we had to wait over 13 years between 10,000 Days and their "New" Fear Inoculum.

  • Google wasn't Google back then. Same name, different devil.

  • My sibling is way younger than I and she and their friends were asking me what it was like during 9/11 because that's entirely before their time. I felt like an old vet talking about storming the beaches on D-Day. It's so wild how actual adults were born in what feels like just a few years ago.

  • it's not me. I have been carrying around that resentment towards them for many years now. Front line get the spear, or so it's said.

  • Vibes only. High margin of error when it comes to actual numbers but it still feels that way to me. I was only informed of the actual stats in this very thread. Can't mark this as the first time I'm been way off the mark. Ive kinda made a habit of it which is fine with enough beer.

  • 112k AkChuUhLee. (I had to look it back up) I've been a career Tool fan but that's as far as I've ever gotten. I'm where I want to be tho. And this way, I won't need to make a fake crying apology video.

  • Here is the link to one that didn't get a strike from about that time. But I've also had to attach proof, I was THE FIRST. Found it when I was in college.

  • I have just received the relevant stats and indeed, I'm not but it sure feels like it these days. It's more childlike in content than it's every been IMO. Maybe it's just me.

  • Ohhhhh what a classic. I remember huddling around my girlfriend's (at the time) family computer watching that one god know how many times in a row. Also, hat one with David Blaine but it was this other kid pretending to be him doing impossible tricks.

  • This makes me feel better actually. I always get the vibe that it's all kids and teenagers. Maybe because they've made it too "soft" for lack of a better word that I can think of rn. I'll stop back in another 19 years.

  • Reminisce with me about the pre google glory days. In the long long ago. Salad Fingers, that Joey Jordison drum solo video, Badger Badger Badger...

  • I always bump the frequency and richness of ores usually around 25-50%. Making it too high, i feel removes the push to expand. Too low and i can't get resources without it being a slog everytime. I also find it enjoyable to turn up the minimum time between attacks by just a few minutes. It gives me time to try to make something nicer than it would be otherwise.

    But that's just how I like to play. One thing I love about Factorio is they put those options in there because no matter what your preferences are, that's how the game is supposed to be played.

    That said, it can also be fun to do a vanilla run or even just skip changing a single setting you'd usually alter. It's amazing how much a single setting can change the way you approach a play through.

  • Oof

    Jump
  • That motherfucker looks like he got stung by a bee and lost his epipen.

  • And a lot of other people are saying thats a great way to get popped.

  • Very well put. I couldn't agree more.

  • I agree. Its a fun movie but is the literal opposite of everything in the book. My favorite chapter is where the crashed pilot outwalks the group of zombies. There's something so organic and absolutely terrifying about that. Humans are persistence predators and it was such a unique way of turning the tables on our evolutionary successes. Brilliant stuff. The movie may be fun, but its anything but brilliant.
