  • I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
    I wasn't trying to ignore you, sorry...

    I have a PS1 now, though, maybe I should seek out more games for it

    ^ Is it the original or the 2000 "PSone"?
  • I had a PS1 for a long time but pawned it off for $20. Shoulda kept it.

    I have an emulator tho, so it's cool.

  • Doctor Who reference in Pokemon B2W2? Headcanon accepted.

    The original seems easier to come by than the PSone. I imagine it's because Sony removed the internal power supply in favor of one of those annoying-ass wall warts, and if you abuse your console (as my brother did to mine) the jack for the power adapter stops working over time.

    Not a big loss, for me, since I can still play PS1 games on my trusty PS2, but still.
  • Oh yay, the only other person here with a non-Nintendo childhood!


    *Sonyfistbump*
    actually my upbringing was mostly Sega/Sony. we had a Game Boy (and then even a Game Boy Color) but they were only for the pokemon games, and all of our non handheld consoles were Sega or Sony. went straight from the mega drive to the PS1

    Nintendo didn't care too much about Europe in the 8/16-bit days, so Europe and England were dominated by the Master System and the Mega Drive. In fact the Master System had one hell of a nice system life there, getting a bunch of games and ports that never saw the light of day in either America or Japan
  • wasn't the Commodore also more popular as a gaming platform over that way?
  • also I've been wanting to play Immercenary since that article about it was linked, but I'm not sure if it's really worth the trouble of hunting down a 3DO.

    well thats a bit before my time, but my brother picked up a commodore 64 at a boot sale for 50p, still in the original packaging

    I got bored, so I made a morality system. Rather than being based off of good/evil and law/chaos, its based off of pragmatism/honor, order/freedom, and altruism/severity. That last one is kind of iffy because I couldn't think of another word that meant the opposite of altruism and wasn't too negative.

    how about apathy

  • my family owns one of every PlayStation (and two PSPs) except the Vita

    I kinda want one but they're too expensive right now and the game department on it is slagging so I think I'll wait till the price drops
  • on the other hand, this is already there

    and I don't know about you guys but I'm dying to play it 

    but maybe I might just get the PS3 version tho, I dunno

    The Popeye arcade game:

    Look at the sprites compared to the background layer. The sprites are in high definition (512 x 448), pretty amazing for a game that came out in 1982.

    It's a pretty awesome album.
  • also if you like DJ Shadow I'm going to recommend DJs Krush and Vadim to you, though the old stuff by the latter is kinda hard to find.

  • its very now but im not going to hold that against it

  • also if you like DJ Shadow I'm going to recommend DJs Krush and Vadim to you, though the old stuff by the latter is kinda hard to find.

    i have the album DJ Krush did with toshinori kondo and it is really great
  • pretty much all of Krush's albums are great. I'd suggest nabbing Stepping Stones...The Self-Remixed Best if you can find it.

    Vadim's stuff is harder to find, but if you can find USSR: Theory of Verticality anywhere, get it. I think it's on iTunes but I'm not sure.

  • cool i will check out more DJ Krush because what i have is very good. never heard of vadim but ill give him a listen

    also on a more recent note Flying Lotus is in vaguely the same ballpark though his sound is pretty different.

    Yeah. There are exceptions (notably New York City) but generally, as long as you stop first and make sure it's clear, you're allowed to turn right while the light's still red.

    It's especially helpful this time of morning, because almost all the traffic is heading west into the central business district. So if I want to turn right and head east, there's no reason to wait for the green when I can let the one or two  eastbound cars pass and then make my turn safely.

    Hi.

    So I fell asleep.  Then I went outside to pick up supplies and a bird shat on my sleeve.  Then I mistakenly bought some slightly feminine shower gel, instead of hand soap, when I'm already drowning in shower gel as it is.  Think I should get some food before my doctor's appointment but not sure what I'm going to do from here.

    Hi Bobby.

    Sorry to hear you're having such a hectic morning...or afternoon, I'm not good with time zones.

    Afternoon now.  Thanks. *hugs Cream*

    I feel like I'm in a daze, to be honest.  I don't know what I'm actually doing or hoping to achieve by it.
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    Well, that's ten more minutes been and gone.  Food.  I need food.

    Later.

    Things that Wikipedia does that piss me the fuck off: saving photographs as PNG files just to have a transparent background.

    Thankfully they usually keep the JPEG version around with a white background, but still.

    isn't JPEG almost always considered to be the inferior format anyway?

    Well, PNG is a lossless format, so it's good for diagrams and icons and other things that need to be free of artifacts, but horribly inefficient at storing photos. JPEG is the preferred format for sharing photos on the web (for editing photos, of course, there are other options) because you can get a decent file size and artifacts aren't as noticeable in photos as they are in other graphics.

    Additionally, JPEG files usually have EXIF metadata listing things like the date and time the picture was taken, the model of camera used, shutter speed, etc., which is lost when you save the image as PNG.

    the question is: can you turn left on a red in the UK (I'm guessing not)
  • I'm listening to A$AP Mob's Lord$ Never Worry.

    I'm not very impressed so far. The production's nice.

    Yay!

    You know why we Mormons started shaving?  The Pope, the Dalai Lama, and every other major religious leader ever came to J. F. Smith, that awesome brah of ours, and asked him to stop being so darn cool.  We were hogging the world's supply of style with our beards, sweet staches, sideburns, and other facial hair.  John Taylor even made the Neckbeard awesome and completely un-neckbeard-like.

    So, to leave some coolness for the rest of the world, we Mormons started shaving. 

    We're just so darn cool.  Too cool for Kirtland, too cool for Nauvoo, too cool for the East Coast.  The world hates us, 'cause they just ain't us.  You know why we won't let you in our Temple?  That's where we keep our excess funk, and the sheer funkiness of it would kill you if it weren't contained.  Oh yeah, our scriptures is the BOM!
