can people maybe... not put difficult-to-parse abbreviations in their CWs? I see things like "ec" and stuff and it's an extra step of trying to figure out what is meant

possible transmisia maybe?, question 

I remember reading once that the symphony of the night enemy called "frozen half" (which is just an ice witch, but has a unique, lower-pitched scream sound effect when killed, different from the other witch enemies) is meant to be a transgender stereotype of some kind but I can't remember what exactly, could someone explain (or tell me I'm mistaken if that's the case)?

Hm. I tried to repair a crack in our laptop case with superglue last night, and managed to superglue shut the laptop. I got it open, but now there's a big blob of hardened superglue on it that we probably ought to get rid of. Anyone know how to do that? A solvent that dissolves polymerized cyanoacrylate but not whatever plastic this laptop is made of would be ideal.

@noiob one thing I always found a bit odd is that the N64 simply didn't have the power to do _2D_ games, where the PS1 did

they put all their effort towards 3d and as such there just isn't enough texture ram for spritesheets

this is kind of true too, because the ps2/gamecube/dreamcast/xbox era was the first one where games were frequently ported between all of the main systems

you didn't get games that came out on both playstation and n64, or both snes and genesis

only 90s kids remember when video game consoles were actually materially different and had different capabilities

I feel like water has symbolic importance in Final Fantasy X but I can't figure out what exactly it symbolises

I made a post earlier that mentioned alucard's actual name and I just realized I got the name wrong

his real name is Adrian Fahrenheit Tepes

that feeling when you feel like you may have just done a social faux pas but don't know if you did or not and aaa.

phone calls just sap all our energy and we can't do anything afterward

masto question: what does "unless otherwise specified" mean here? How do you otherwise specify?

thought: steel is such a common material for tools because, primarily, of the abundance of iron; it's the most abundant metal. As such, a lot of research has gone into making tools and structures out of iron and iron-based alloys.

But what materials would tools and structures be made of if given an unlimited amount of any ores you want? (you have to smelt, alloy, and forge them yourself though) If iron didn't have the advantage of abundance, what would tools have been made of instead?

you know

if you have two component video sources and put the luma from one and the chroma from another

that would probably look pretty weird. i wonder if the tv would handle that. synchronization would probably be a problem

Two-headed striped hyena taur

doesn't give a fuck about (their own) gender--doesn't know what it is and doesn't care enough to try to find out

A blacksmith, in a modern-leaning setting. They mostly make props for theatre, renaissance fairs, battle reenactments, and collector's items, as well as art pieces

Some flavor of plural, but on the "mostly a singlet" end of the spectrum

Two or four arms? undecided

Wears glasses, but only on one head.

Possibly works with Darius (Aditi's brother who does machining)--co-owners of the forge/workshop? possibly also partners??

re: plural thoughts 

this isn't really a change or anything, incidentally. we're still the same people we have been, just identifying more bits of identity we found lying around the brain

plural thoughts 

sometimes it feels like there may be more than just two of us in here, but that the majority of them are... "instances of" either Felthry or Rosemary

because there are times where it feels like we switched, but it's still the same person fronting, just... suddenly different things seem appealing and the things we were previously engrossed in seem a bit bland

it's like we're a system of two median systems or something

hmm. would it be correct to say that vikings vike?
