  2. @scribus But hey, at least Mitt Romney set himself up for a comeback Presidential run in 2024 where he’ll do all the things he claimed to oppose today

  4. @scribus That's true. I'm quite fond of cowboy action shooting and revolver ocelot types though.

  5. @scribus That's true, rifle tricks are hard, and doubly so with optics attached.

  6. @scribus But but but what if the Girl Scouts are using the cookie selling as a front for drug delivery?!?!

  7. @scribus So they don't put any drugs in there.

  8. @scribus Pro tip from retail management: Girl Scout cookies in many parts of the country are made in the same factories as Keebler cookies (Keebler simply licenses they name) and are, in fact, largely the same as their Keebler counterparts.

  9. @scribus What makes these cookies special? I've never had any.

  10. @scribus The longer guns tend to be easier, mostly because they're heavier and you have the sights farther away from eachother, as well as better grip. I remember my cousin taking about how he couldn't hit anything with handguns but had no issues with a FAL. Handguns do have the advantage in quick target aquisition since they don't require you to focus your vision as much.

  11. @scribus At least it's ending on its own terms and doesn't fade into obscurity or turn into something to be hated.

  12. @scribus I saw the latest video of "Strange Parts" https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCO8DQrSp5yEP937qNqTooOw and saw how he put a mug with water in the microwave and immediately thought that this was wrong.

  13. @scribus thanks, haha. it was fun. i might go back. maybe that makes me a bit of a hypocrite given how preachy i've gotten both online and irl about the need for stringent gun control but whatever

  14. @scribus Rented from the range. I think I did okay (it was my first time even holding a gun) though the farthest I shot was seven yards so I definitely wouldn't have won any awards or anything like that http://rainbowdash.net/url/875433

  16. @scribus High frame rate video is one thing but another thing to interpolate frames of lower frame rate to a higher and smooth out "choppiness", especially with non-contiguous motion like in animation with few feature points in the picture. High frame rate video will be the norm some day. Right now the amount of data is mostly not feasible or the technology is not good enough to simulate. Current films are exported in 2k because all of the rendering time and visual effects. Also visual flaws get more obvious with a higher temporal resolutions. I heard that "acting" is more apparent at higher frame rates, meaning that the acted motions and emotions are perceived as not genuine.

  17. @scribus it's a cancer called motion smoothing that is enabled by default on almost all newer TVs. Animated content, especially 2D, looks like garbage.

    Tuesday, 28-Jan-20 04:58:21 UTC from web in context
  18. @scribus Is it interpolating the frames? Boosting traditional animation to 60fps is the best way to batcaveing destroy it.

    Tuesday, 28-Jan-20 02:21:59 UTC from web in context
  19. @scribus More of his animation than the actual content of the films he made, but I did really like Fritz and what it tried to do for the industry as a whole.

  21. @scribus Well, if they *were* sick... Physically or mentally. I've called out sick from the parking lot because I felt like another 8 hours on the job would end up cut short (across the wrist).

  22. @scribus One showed up to work fifteen minutes late yesterday and said “I’m sick and can’t work today” then left. The other one’s been walking around the parking lot asking customers for money, then lied to me when I asked him about it, then kept lying to me when I said I saw him do it.

  23. @scribus I mean the “elder statespeople” are all working to cover up crimes committed by the White House so do we really need them

  27. @scribus Yep, that's the one I thought you meant, and that there was some other artist called Sage.

  28. @scribus I kind of like Savant's music so I'm mildly curious what the issue was.

    Monday, 20-Jan-20 06:17:55 UTC from web in context
  29. @scribus I'll experiment with that.

  30. @scribus If this isn't some gag I'm missing, both Triforces were colour-coded green and red in the Zelda cartoon, with all three being RGB by the time of Captain N.
