  1. @scribus Maybe! Wouldn’t feel right about it until I could pay you tho, so let’s see if I can get this thing picked up or funded first. Flying to Atlanta next year for the first of what is presumably going to be many, many pitches.

  2. @scribus There are already 1080p Blu Rays of that film out there.

  3. @scribus I was playing a round of Beat Saber a few days ago and I half-way sucked. Last time I played it was about 3 months ago. The fast songs I was good at were a tragedy (like Darude Sandstorm on Expert).

  4. @scribus There's actually a VB emulator for the Oculus Quest 2. It's called "Virtual Boy Go".

  5. @scribus It’s PROBABLY National Enquirer-tier just because of the sheer insanity, but also, that would imply a certain level of untruth to it, and, uhhhhhhh…

  6. @scribus Well I found a seller who had spelled the NERV credo right, so I bought one. Eight on, two ready, three more coming in the mail.

  10. @scribus Polio has the "advantage" that it has horrific looking results like misshapen limbs on children. Covid has death or long-term respiratory deficiencies and they are not horrible enough. A friend of my father's has a car paint shop and cannot work there anymore because covid made it impossible for him to breathe there (already had issues breathing because he did not a lot care for mask protection while painting and he is a heavy smoker).

  14. @scribus Are you sure it's not Daft Punk emailing you because they're bored in their retirement?

  15. @scribus Yeah. I would need a big CNC router and/or a medium-size laser cutter to cut down in labor time and to provide decent and repeatable quality. It could be done without those but it would be not economical.

  16. @scribus i dunno but personally i think making fun of gluten allergies is much, much lower on the list of things i'd object to than, say, paying a random generic black guy to pretend to be Barack Obama, which disney channel also loved doing at the time.

  17. @scribus Interesting. The dimensions of that crate is about the shape of two cubes stuck together. The shape doesn't lend that much for comics. I can imagine having 3 rows of comics in that box that are side-by-side that would approximately fill the crate's shape without major alterations. However I think that it might be too much. I think that producing these crates would be expensive as it needs a lot of manual labor. Also I have not the tools to make the crates efficiently and with quality that justifies the costs.

  18. @scribus Little bit the heat but mostly my neighbours. In the last two weeks they have woken me up 10 times in the night (about 2-3 AM) thus I could not go to sleep again. My body is so f-ed up that I can only go to sleep between 10 and 11 PM.

  19. @scribus I feel with you. Haven't properly slept for weeks myself.

  20. @scribus I'll use a piece of black cardboard as a backing material like in the attached picture. I did the same with all my framed comics. The picture I want to frame is still being flattened. It has been shipped rolled up, so it'll take some time to straighten. I could make a passepartout but I don't like them as they need to overlap with the picture. I could buy a custom made frame but it costs 2.5 times as much as the closest off-the-shelf model. http://rainbowdash.net/attachment/875948

  21. @scribus I think too, however this comes from China where manual labour is cheap. So who knows

  22. @scribus Including the prison cellar and the nuclear reactor in the swimming pool?

  23. @scribus I clean my brush thoroughly after brushing my teeth so it lasts quite a while. I change the brush when the bristles are bent enough that they impact the cleaning performance. A tooth brush lasts about 2 to 3 months. Is it too long? I don't know but it seems reasonable.

  24. @scribus I solved the toothbrush problem by having about 3-4 spare brushes in stock.

  26. @scribus Yeah I didn’t even buy beer for my friends in college after I turned 21 as like a purely moral thing, don’t plan to do it here either

  28. @scribus I had the same with ICQ. At some point they have changed the protocol again and my multi-messenger stopped working. Most of the contacts were "dead" and I talked to a few anyway. So I axed it with all the other instant messengers.

  29. @scribus Well now I feel bad about having felt bad (and also upgrading my swears) so that's fun

  30. @scribus BTW: The first episode of season 5 of Rick & Morty is also there on the channel. I watched the episode elsewhere but it's neat that they put it on Youtube for the exposure. Rick & Morty doesn't need that but Tuca & Bertie needs that as its style can be off-putting very easily.
