It’s fine, he’s built like a mid-00s CGI zombie.

Alternately: 360 no-scope such that firing causes the somersault to stop.

mindbleach ,

In all seriousness, wavelength-specific dielectric mirrors can approach six nines of reflectivity.

The hard part is hitting the mirror instead of the drone.

mindbleach ,

You fools. Look up!

It’s not a “moonshot,” it’s a 360 no-scope.

mindbleach ,

Alternately, polish every car window facing east.

Or… skip a step. Line of sight is irrelevant if your aircraft is already exploding!

“You see, men, the lethal range is limited by this airy disk… stop giggling!”

mindbleach ,

Do not point laser at remaining eyewall.

mindbleach ,

Yeah I guess you can’t pulse-ablate a mirror made of plastic.

Though it invites a backup strategy of spraying your enemies with molten drone.

mindbleach ,

Why, in the name of god, does Lemmy’s obsession with censorship include the word “jerk?”

mindbleach ,

It’s bullshit and you should stop.

It’s a pattern of destroying information over puritanical nonsense. Treat people like adults.

mindbleach ,

Nobody’s stopping you.

You should stop.

This is not a contradiction.

Infantalizing people for their own good --> infantalizing people as an insult.

More behavior you need to cut the fuck out.

How people manage to play and chat online with random people?

This may sound dumb for some of you but I just can’t play online, or at least I can’t play anything with chat or a very social aspect. That’s why I only play tekken on my xbox since that doesn’t require socialisation but I have so many games and I feel half of them are worthless now that I finished the campaigns because...

“How do people manage to play and chat online with random people?”

mindbleach ,

Windows 95 would like to install itself inside of you.

mindbleach ,

It is written in the stars above.

Terrible opsec.

mindbleach ,

The whole internet is just him and you.

mindbleach ,

Howdy! What’d you think of Mouth Dreams?

mindbleach ,

That’s fair. Honestly most of the effort was spent going back in time to plant a “RIBS” reference in that Tears For Fears video.

mindbleach ,

Windows 9x was low-bullshit.

NT and 2000 were corporate enough to be no-nonsense. They belonged to the administrator, but the administrator can be you.

ME was a mistake.

XP was not yet online enough to be properly skeezy.

But from Vista onward, yeah, it’s been an escalating shit-show that’s difficult to miss.

mindbleach ,

You pay how much to be told no?

mindbleach ,

I would still be using 7 if ransomware wasn’t a thing.

I went back to Mint instead.

mindbleach ,

All simping for China, a one-party state where the Dalai Lama is considered a threatening dissident, and nothing bad has ever happened.

mindbleach ,

They’re just shuffling cards. They will make whatever mouth noises get to their foregone conclusion. This is how they perform loyalty to the ingroup.

They think that’s all you’re doing, because they think that’s all there is.

Urgo: “It’s me or death. Death or me.”
Urgo: “… well?”
Jack: “I’m thinking.”

mindbleach ,

Addressing exactly one of those things: GBA Jam 2024 runs for another two months.

mindbleach ,

Internet says Bro Aniki.

mindbleach ,

Theban bottom looks like Sabudenego’s work.

I will not be taking questions at this time.

mindbleach ,

This is a good point. Reddit originally had no communities. Then there were maybe a dozen, all picked by the admins… and already /r/Atheism was one of them, because that’s how the userbase went. People who don’t understand why such a community was necessary do not remember living through 90s / 00s American culture.

mindbleach ,

InfoWarriorRides / SchizophreniaRides, for pictures of cars with batshit crazy messages on them.

100YearsAgo could be mirrored here via bot and not miss much.

Other subs were great for their discussion more than than linked content - Civvie11, GunnerkriggCourt, DresdenCodak, QContent. Not so much DumbingOfAge because it devolved into a hatedom sub. I guess most of that should be lumped into comic and game-video communities. I could “be the change” and start posting speedruns willy-nilly.

LinkIsCute is here but pretty dead.

Polandball, holy shit!

mindbleach ,

And she’s the kind of woman Spike Spiegel loves: she’ll fucking kill you.

mindbleach ,

I think this goes somewhere in the upper right.

mindbleach ,

Nahhh, it’s just a really fucky Venn diagram. In every sense.

mindbleach ,

Look me in the eyes and tell me that’s the most objectionable point on the graph.

mindbleach ,

In the pentagon of shame where it belongs.

mindbleach ,

Gonna bet that’s not how.

mindbleach ,

Exploiting trust is worse. That parasocial z-list celebrity isn’t recommending something - they were paid to read corporate propaganda.

The most painful version of this is Lindsey Ellis’s video on “Manufacturing Authenticity.” It ends with a deep sigh and an ad read. The brand knew she was doing a video about how brands pay the popular kids to shill their whatever, and they did not care, because all that matters is getting a known face to say the words.

mindbleach ,

Advertising shits in your brain.

mindbleach ,

Awww, not a remake of the batshit crazy Amiga game about a megalomaniacal alien destroying his last thousand clones by talking to locals in a symbolic constructed language… and also blowing up entire planets at the push of a button. And the alien is canonically the game’s creator isekai-ing himself into his own procedural universe and living for centuries as an immortal tyrant. Jean-Micheal Jarre did the theme music.

mindbleach ,

Wouldn’t want to waste a trip.

mindbleach ,

It’ll still be called the Future Circular Collider when it’s shut down after forty years of service. You gotta commit to a scale in the proposal, like the Overwhelmingly Large Telescope.

mindbleach ,

Lead engineer, Dr. Slab Bulkhead.

mindbleach ,

Yay forever chemicals!

mindbleach ,

Honorable mention to all Newbery Medal winners, AKA the Dead Dog Award.

mindbleach ,

Bridge To Terabithia goes a step further.

mindbleach ,

Scary Stories To Tell In The Dark sure the fuck isn’t a cuddly-looking bait-and-switch, but it is plainly aimed at a younger audience. Basically a collection of standard campfire stories and spooky e-mail forwards… with nightmare-fuel watercolor illustrations.

mindbleach ,

Wow, does that site design suck.

How hard is it to deliver ten JPGs?

mindbleach ,

Guru Meditation red.

Alternately: yellow-and-black ASCII approximating Evangelion’s ALART.

And that scales nonlinearly with volume, so smaller monitors are even denser than big monitors.
