  • In a blind test, audiophiles couldn't tell the difference between audio signals sent through copper wire, a banana, or wet mud — 'The mud should sound perfectly awful, but it doesn't'

  • It was gold plated mud though.

  • What's a piece of Media that is so underrated you must mention it?

    Jump

  • Netherbeast Incorporated is a weird but charming vampire office comedy from 2007, featuring Darrel Hammond, Dave Foley, and Steve from Blues Clues. And a small appearance by Robert Wagner as President James Garfield.

    It's kind of dumb, but I love it. I have never met another person in real life who's seen it.

  • What would you want done with your remains upon death?

    Jump

  • Launch my corpse at a dead planet with water or ice, see if my bacterial colonies eventually seed new life.

  • What horror movie should I watch to celebrate friday the 13th?

    Jump

  • Do you like 80s cheesy half-comedy horror? Re-Animator, starring the man himself, Jeffrey Combs. The first two are loosely based on the Lovecraft story, the third is an original script and goes completely off the rails, but in a fun way.

  • Dragon Quest VIII is so charming

    Jump

  • I adore 7. It had just the right balance of memorable party members, but the absolute flexibility of the job system. It is VERY long, and somewhat slower paced than 8 (in the original PSX version anyway), but once it gets rolling it had a sense of wonder and excitement for me that none of the others quite matched.

    Having never played the 3ds version, I'm not sure what's different, but I imagine it's closer to the original than the new reimagined is in terms of content. Personally, I'd say emulate the PSX version if you can, but I'd just really rather look at sprites than that era of 3d graphics. If you prefer those graphics, or it's just substantially easier for you to play that version, go ahead. The point is you should definitely play it in some form or another.

  • Dragon Quest VIII is so charming

    Jump

  • It gets darker and more serious with its plot, but I always found Breath of Fire to share some of the same charm as Dragon Quest for reasons I can't quite quantify. 2 and 3 especially. 4 is also magnificent, but it's something of a a stylistic departure from the previous ones.

  • So Deep

    Jump

  • Not without a way to contain liquid fats underwater.

  • This is Buddy. Buddy passed away last week and the world has lost one of the best horses ever.

    Jump

  • He looks like 5000 candles in the wind.

  • Hey Lemmy, how do you deal with existential crisis?

    Jump

  • ok Thanos

  • What is happening with this potatoe?

    Jump

  • It's just the dark meat.

  • YSK that radishes are fucking amazing. They contain vitamin C, improve blood pressure, and are full of Sulforaphene, a powerful anti-cancer substance. Radishes contain almost no calories

    Jump

  • big radish

    They're called daikon.

  • Hey Lemmy, how do you deal with existential crisis?

    Jump

  • I've just kind of grown comfortable with the idea that there is no real point. I'm fine just floating through my time here seeing neat shit and hearing cool stories, and doing what I can to make things a little better for the people around me. Sort of a cozy or optimistic nihilism, though I'm probably misusing that word.

    Joss Whedon is problematic in a lot of ways, but nevertheless this scene from Angel has always stuck with me: If nothing we do matters, then all that matters is what we do.

  • Skeleton wizards are liches.

    Also Pathfinder WotR lets you do some pretty wacky combos like a dhampir angel, or a kitsune gold dragon.

  • You can sing the words "it's on like Donkey Kong" to the Imperial March from Star Wars.

  • You're talking about "common metre", and it also includes Amazing Grace, the Gilligan's Island theme, House of the Rising Sun, Casey at the Bat, and the Lay of Nimrodel among many others.

    You can swap any of the tunes and lyrics and they more or less work. One of my favorite music trivia things.

  • MFW my boss calls to see if I can cover a shift, but I'm already to drunk to drive to get there.

  • You're the coolest, Grandma B!

  • I had emergency surgery and as a result it looks like I will be zonked out on oxys for the next week. Never had these, what are some good movies to watch in this condition?

    Jump

  • Ohh shit, I know this one. My dad had it on tape and I watched it a few times back in the day. This IS some good mindfuck.

  • Ooh, I really like the old-school animation throwbacks I'm seeing in pictures for The Congress. And it kinda sounds like a Black Mirror episode. Definitely going on the list.
