having fun on the computer 5

Being an old person connected to the internet must be fucking terrifying right now. Constant feed of A.I. videos, but to them it's all real because they don't have the eyes for it. They can probably tell something is "off", but it's just outside of the reach of their reality.

Bro don't look up DeviantArt. It's worse than a Horror movie.

bringing back this post from a couple months ago because steam fest making me feel noxious

Anyone else rent this from Blockbuster without knowing you need an Analog Controller with the two sticks & just fuming over it for an entire weekend or was I the only kid stupid enough to do that?

Lotta "Bigfoot is fake" news recently that amounts to "we found rehearsal footage right after a.i. was invented....no you cannot see the unaltered 4K 16mm film scan we did...NO you can't verify it with a 3rd party source...look it's fake ok???" I hate that that's the argument that is being presented

Congratulations to the overworked idea guy in charge of making all snack food taste like shit. Doritos, & cheetos, & all the deet-os have had their recipes ship of theseus'd so many times that I no longer want to buy them. Raise the price of those suckers to $10 a bag, because I no longer want them

If a Video Game doesn't say "AND YOU" at the end of the credits, thanking the player, then I give it an unenthusiastic sleeping head out of 5.

Trying to settle a bet. My DM said I can't go "Gentle Repose > Mend > Revify" because "Your character wouldn't know that would work", & then they accused me of meta gaming. If I reattach an arm that way does it heal normal or lay limp like a magical object with no magic properties?

Been watching Tank Chair. It's good. It's like Mad World on Wii got turned into an anime which is nice. Excellent character designs & directing too. They basically made a Cyberpunk Fist of The North Star, & I'm fine with that. I DO wish it were 2D, but that shit's never coming back so I'll take it.

You guys should all watch Banjo Gyro to attune your brains to the uncertain future we find ourselves in. Or, you know, because it's different. Shut up & watch the 2000 era CGI video before everyone's talking about it. Fomo into a thing nobody cares about for once. youtu.be/Xynvrod0P6k

I just got a whole ad that was a one hour long podcast on Youtube.

them doing this when publicly admitting you prefer bluesky over there is like a humiliation ritual is the most baffling thing ever man

you have to be fucking kidding me. Is this their real account? is this legit? why did @bsky.app post this on twitter, and not here

I talked to Ross exactly one time in a DM to see if he thought there was any overlap between our channels & he didn't really see it. It sucks, because I REALLY want to do a video where I switch to Ross narrating out of nowhere & then simply not tell anyone about it t see if people can tell who's who

I only have Blue Sky on a completely separate computer, so I hope you guys appreciate how much of a pain in the ass it is for me to post here. I am putting physical effort into wasting both your time & mine. That makes it special.

I agree with this, but collectively saying "All media past 2021 is now illegitimate & tainted" is just so sad.

“It’s hard to avoid playing games with Gen Ai in them.” Play old games. Play games from 2008. Play games from 1998. Play games from 1988.

I always viewed her as having bags under her eyes, maybe because she was sleepy, maybe because the n64 was a little blurry. It's good but very slightly different than what I had in my head.

If you watched enough anime you would know this was going to happen. Hell, Final Fantasy VII even. These Zaibatsus don't exactly have your best interest in mind.

A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush, but a picture is worth 1000 words. Therefore a picture of a bird in a bush is worth at least 4000 words. I am submitting my thesis to a scientist, but I think the math checks out.

They're saying I need to be banned from Letterboxd immediately.

Youtube is pretty Denpa if you think about it. You're broadcasting your voice through the air, & affecting peopke's thoughts on the other side of the planet. Go, do anime stuff. I command it.

I am now hearing people are watching anime on VHS at 2X speed. I just want to be clear. I do NOT condone this hedonistic "VHS-Maxing", & it's perversion of the arts.

I like that Youtube just recommends you the same 30 videos on a never ending loop. It's like your own personal hell until you notice what's happening. Really keeps you on your toes.

Guys don't download the Whopper app from Burger King. I don't have time to explain.

There's something so beautiful about this.

$2200 rent, $20 burrito, 10-Rupees to talk to Ingo. Someone help me budget this my family is starving.

Do kids even watch old anime? I bet they don't even know about Columbo San.

The inexorable urge to buy a Video Toaster & an Amiga & edit videos on it like a Cave Man frozen in 1994.

They should make a sequel to Alien Nine called Alien Ten.
