@ceruleanspark Thoughts on fallout 76?
Friday, 30-Nov-18 01:19:33 UTC from web-
@nerthos There are AI enemies, just no NPC humans. It's kind of a man vs. nature sort of thing in that every AI that you DO encounter is usually a wild animal (or a busted robot). There's the usual stuff, there are feral ghouls, super mutants, robots, deathclaws, mole rats, etc. etc., but then there's also some new ones. Scorched are ghouls that are in between feralism and still having some semblance of brain activity, so they don't communicate verbally but they can use guns. Mole Miners hang out in the coal mines and I THINK they're people that have gone mad? I'm not sure, the game's really ambiguous about what they actually are, and you can't see what's underneath their masks. Scorched Beasts are, uh, really buff dragons. The closest thing I've seen to an actual NPC is a supercomputer who reads poetry to you, and I want to put her AI into a synth body and marry her.

@ceruleanspark I do miss the crowd here from the past. When the timeline would actually be alive. When there was a defiant "RDN2" group on Skype.

Not sure if any of you have tried Dragalia Lost yet. Quite fun if you're into mobile games, it's basically Fate: Grand Order but with actual gameplay and passable dialogues you don't want to skip.

Apparently they're gonna be writing Apu out of The Simpsons starting this season. I know that these days he's sort of a controversial character and a lot of people don't like him, and I'm not really one to complain about PC culture, but Apu's character goes beyond his ethnicity, and I think the people who called for his removal ignored that. With that being said, I’m not going to pretend this is a tragedy. Ultimately, whatever they choose to do with the character on The Simpsons is up to them. Apu's been out of focus for several years now, so I can't say that his absence would be a huge deal, because that would be disingenuous. The Simpsons is also a much different show now than it was thirty years ago. Almost none of the original writers are still on the show, and a few of them are even younger than the show itself. If their vision of the show doesn't include Apu, I can't really fault them.

@mrmattimation Didn't Fox discredit the rumor of Apu being removed?

I can count the amount of Hispanic-American cartoon characters on mainstream TV on one hand, none of them are Puerto Rican, and one of them is this lady (voiced by Mike Henry, a white actor). In fact, I’m struggling to think of a single Hispanic character in ANY animated media, save for my namesake in My Little Brony (whose Hispanic heritage is touched on lightly, if at all), to actually be voiced by a Hispanic actor (and I’m guilty of vocal blackface, whiteface, orangeface...) Hispanic characters in media are often portrayed as illegal immigrants or drug dealers. Or both. On The Simpsons, we have a whopping TWO Hispanic characters—one of them is batcaveing Bumblebee Man, and the other one is Dr. Nick maybe. I don’t sound like cherryin’ Dr. Nick. I don’t know a SINGLE Hispanic person that sounds like Dr. Nick. AND he’s incompetent! But APU, the hard-working ladies man with a DOCTORATE in COMPUTER SCIENCE, is the problem? http://rainbowdash.net/url/872979

@nerthos because if it is. I'd say having a presitend who says children die because the mothers have cavities, that platypus milk is an amazonian product and is is constantly saying he supports the military dictature is not not my biggest dream

@mushi because aparently some thousands of people making 2K a month to help the country's dacaying science harms the economy much more than many thousands of policticians making over 100K a month of assistances to fatten their accounts on sweedish banks

@ceruleanspark I do believe TBS is or once was a channel....
-
@ceruleanspark TBS is indeed the network it was on. It was supposed to be part of an original animated block with a Louis C.K. show and J.G. Quintel’s new show. Louis C.K.’s show was cancelled for obvious reasons, Quintel’s is the Half-Life 3 of animated television and no news on it has been released in a while, so Final Space just ended up being part of their usual lineup with the other remaining animated show on the block.

And if anyone cares, list of current giveaways:

https://www.gog.com/game/sunrider_mask_of_arcadius
https://store.steampowered.com/app/436180/
Last one is a bit tricky to grab since the base game is F2P and the actual giveaway are the DLC. Solution is to go to the dlc pages and manually clicking install on each, they should show up on your library under the game's dlc box after that.Friday, 25-May-18 13:38:52 UTC from web-

@firestormdangerdash Oh, yeah. This is the original one, the one with the hawk is the SPC alt to talk with non-RDN people, and the one with the 2 is a bot that takeshi made in 2016 when he was making markov bots with the accounts of anyone who found it funny. It's basically rdnebooks but using my posts as a source.

For the people who care about federation (Probably just @nerthos and @awl) I have no idea why it isn’t working. This is actually a new server, at a new hosting provider and a functionally fresh install of RDN’s version of statusnet. So unless DigitalOcean, Cloudflare, or the other instances themselves are blocking us (or them), there’s no particular reason why it *shouldn’t* work.

They pulled it up on their phone and started showing other students. I had four different people suddenly surrounding me and I just wanted to be left alone. The live, in-person audience was, for some reason, genuinely upsetting to me and I couldn’t handle it, so I excused myself and ran to the cafe so I could stress eat.
