    also I don't get why Sweden was a part of it because Russia and Byzantium are Orthodox while Sweden are Reformed Protestant.

    Crusades are about tourism rights.

    i don't care how much money i have that sounds like a terrible idea

    that being said i'm the type of person who would buy everyone copies of D to show how bad it is so uh i don't think i have any ground to stand on
  • what's D?

    besides a letter

    Well, no. It was a joke, but about how the First Crusade was about freedom of pilgrimage. Although that is a bleakly funny interpretation, and I might like it better than my joke.

  • I remember watching Mike Mnemonic play that when I still watched his channel.

    What a bizarre, dumb game.
  • Why does iTunes have so many goddamned features?

    I mean, damn, Apple, you could have separate apps for these things
  • Not a hybrid rabbit-skink spirit
    Yeah, D is incredibly stupid

    it's a running gag among my friends to do the stupid as hell "LAURA. LAURA." voice that her dad does

    it's also excellent to say "THE BLOOD OF DRACULA RUNS THROUGH YOUR VEINS" at opportune times (spoilered just in case you care about the plot of this clusterfuck of a game)

    iTunes is the shit(tiest program on the PC that isn't actual malware or adware)
  • When we reach an era where technology is optimized to always run smoothly instead of always being packed with features, we will have truly reached the future.

    To give you an idea, currently my iTunes:
    • has Syn Cole's Miami 82 paused
    • is updating the software on my iPod
    • importing like 3897 songs from my Music folder
    • determining the album art for said songs
    • analyzing the gapless playback info for said songs
    • calculating how much space my iPod will have with all of my music loaded onto it
    I dunno about you, but I think that's a little ridiculous to put on one app.
  • I should get out of this habit of, when finding out that we have the ingredients at home necessary to make delicious kaiser roll cheese sandwiches, eating said sandwiches for all meals until they are gone, but on the other hand, they're delicious.

    any typical sequence of numbers

    hey everybody listen to this

  • iTunes is the shit(tiest program on the PC that isn't actual malware or adware)

    I only deal with it because I have a shared data plan so music on the go via phone is a no-no

    If it were my choice, I would've switched to Play Music/Spotify full-time a while ago
  • so like for the music sale

    i bought three albums 

    aaaaaand none of them were on sale

    on the other hand all of them together came to like 6 dollars

    so yay?
  • The crazy thing about it though is that it's doing this all without major slowdown though

    I guess it's because it's both iTunes 11 (the best version of the software, which isn't saying much, but still) and the fact that my gaming rig's doing the work.
  • itunes makes my laptop cry
  • I actually legitimately shouldn't have eaten that.

    I have like no hunger gauge at all. Either I'm starving or I'm full to the point where I'm sick.
  • Not a hybrid rabbit-skink spirit
    Yeah I really do hate that iTunes is so ridiculously bulky

    I mean like

    I want it to play music

    not do all this crazy ass bullshit
  • If it were my choice, Apple would split the app the way it does in iOS, so as to avoid bloat

    I guess they don't really care though, the mobile iTunes Store has pulled a lot of attention away from the traditional PC app
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    I've never used iTunes

    ^^^ What features do you refer to?

    What features do you refer to?

    Well, it plays your media, syncs your iPod with the same library, handles the purchasing of said media, and handles stuff you can't even actually use in the app (i.e. App Store apps, books).

    The idea of it is great, but it just ends up making the app more bloated and resource-heavy. I'd rather have things separated so I don't have to deal with everything when I just want to do one thing, if you catch my drift.
  • Not a hybrid rabbit-skink spirit
    Speaking of which, I really need to move my music library to my tower at some point


  • Bad Rats is the spiritual successor to Planescape: Torment, set in the urban setting of Solstice, the oppressed rat population must fight to gain control over the most chaotic plane in Planescape, the story follows our protagonist, Kynar, as he discovers the strange laws of the planes, and travels the corrupt landscape with his traumatized companions.

    hahahaha fuck what

    I don't use the Store at all any more and have turned off automatic synchronisation on my iPod, so I don't really have those problems. I just use it to hold, organise and play media.
  • Not a hybrid rabbit-skink spirit
    To be completely honest, not using the store doesn't change the fact that it's still there

    Nor does it change the fact that all their time and effort is going towards adding features than it is optimizing the program or developing a lighter program or something
  • “I'm surprised. Those clothes… but, aren't you…?”
    Hm.

    Does it slow down the rest of the application?

  • ugh I hate alliances in this game.

    I thought to myself "gee, there's no harm in allying with the tiny Kingdom of Holland. It's just one county and with a huge big brother nation like me, who would mess with them?"

    then fucking Brabant and their friend Denmark have to come in and ruin everything

    god fuck these guys

    Take over Brabant, then fuck up Denmark.

    Hm.

    Hm. That's kind of a tough question to answer.

    If iTunes tries to stay connected to the store I can see that eating up plenty of resources.

    All I can say for sure is that iTunes runs far slower than it probably should. Which most likely indicates that more time was spent on features and style than clean, efficient coding.
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    something's rotten in Denmark
  • I may just annex the entirety of Brabant if I can. It's three provinces and it shares a border with my other Dutch holdings.

    Speaking of which the "Dutch Revolt" event looked like it was going to fire a few years ago but it never did.
  • also because I haven't been in a war in forever my military tradition is extremely low, which means that all of my generals are awful, which in turn means that the only way for me to win battles is to just throw tons of bodies at them.


  • “I'm surprised. Those clothes… but, aren't you…?”
    Then isn't the solution to just hit the little "x" button when it tries to connect to the store?

    As an aside, I would probably use Foobar if I knew more about its iPod adaptability on Macs, but I do not, and I have no real strong qualms with iTunes and genuinely like its organisational system.
  • agh

    here, have pretty pictures of the new world. it'll help me ignore Denmark invading the British Isles.

    Alright, look, I realize I probably shouldn't have brought up the store, because this isn't really about the store. This is more about iTunes being about style over efficiency.

    Winamp and VLC media player both run excellently on my laptop. They're so much more...utilitarian then iTunes, and it shows. I want to like iTunes more than I do, but how slowly it runs just depresses me.
