this has already happened twice. give context to your stuff, people
seriously
please

pet peeve: people saying very vague things excitedly without providing any context whatsoever and apparently expecting people to understand what they're talking about

Is this FFVIII remaster that just came out a retranslation, or does it use the original flawed translation that removes all the depth from Squall's character?

every now and then i am reminded that the ps1 had no floating point support and just. i am amazed at what they did with that system with no floating point processing

concept: instead of just pushing framerates as high as possible, what if graphics card developers and monitor developers got together and made something that could have different framerates in different parts of the screen? Because you don't _need_ 144Hz refresh rate in places where nothing is changing quickly, and you could save power (both energy-wise and computing-effort-wise) by only refreshing the parts of the screen with fast-moving objects at high refresh rates

oh dear. my condolances to any wendy's workers who have to put up with people who think they're funny

I feel like a lot of atheists out there think that all religion is bad because the only religion they've been exposed to is mainstream christianity (and maybe some sort of islamophobic caricature of islam), and after realizing how bad mainstream christianity is (and presumably not looking too deep into what islam is) they extrapolate that to all religions and forms of spirituality

there's also an element of black-and-white thinking there too, of course

The 4 Heroes of Light really was, in a number of ways, the first in the Bravely series

I quite like how revo remixed the normal battle music from Final Fantasy: The 4 Heroes of Light (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dZ0yX5_WsVs) for Bravely Default's battle music when fighting the optional Nemesis bosses (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y3utwG0Xxyo)

Goo morning. That was supposed to say good morning, but goo morning too.

Alpacas are just, giraffe sheep

The term "poynting vector" always makes me think "pointing vector"

Anxiety medication, or, stress-lesseners

want to open this repro cart we got and see if it's battery backed or has proper flash/fram storage

damn, can't figure out where our triwing screwdriver went

so that makes three times today I thought "I should link @monorail to this, she would like it" only to then notice she was the one who boosted it and thus the reason I saw it in the first place

apparently the country of papua new guinea has a population of just eight million people and yet there are over eight hundred languages spoken there

that's some remarkable diversity

today's mood: ????????

but a vaguely negative sort of ????????

aw, just learned we can't play the secret of mana remake on our hacked ps vita because the firmware version that game requires is higher than the highest version for which a bootloader exploit exists

there are a lot of musical instruments that don't seem to get the attention they deserve

everyone knows guitars and pianos and violins but koto and kalimbas and even harpsichords could really do with seeing more use
