  • I fucking hate those youtube banners. Why does it always have to be the same stupid Calarts artstyle bullshit, why does it never go the fuck away when I click the X button, and why is it always for the most oddly specific braindead audiences of normalfags?

    Two weeks ago it was drones now it's fucking makeup. Who actually thinks this kind of crap is worthy of being highlighted? Nothing but blind consumerism that isn't even for a noteworthy brand that doubles as a modern religion.
    I held in my mouthwash for too long and now my mouth feels like swiss cheese. I'm never fucking using a Listerine product again, their stuff always does this to me.
    Does anyone know any way to filter out ai pictures when browsing for art on google? I just want to see original ideas that aren't all smudged up. Every classic fictional aesthetic like retro futurism and Victorian steampunk is just littered with ai slop and it's getting annoying.

    If you don't watch his stuff already, you'd probably enjoy Alex Yard & Knuckles on YouTube. He does a bunch of music theory analyses on the songs from the Sonic franchise, always making sure to try to match some theory device to a mechanic or feature in the games

    I actually watched his Collision Chaos video. I tried my hardest to pay attention but it just made me more confused about making music in general. Music as a whole seems to be some foreign language I'm unable to wrap my head around.

    At least you know it well enough to have good taste :neddancE:
    God why do I write such long comments and responses? I sound like a fucking attention whore, it's a forum not a blog.

    Lol wut? The whole point of a forum is long form discussion, if people don't have the attention span to read what you post that's their problem

    We all do. I found out today there is like a 20,000 character limit.

    Why does the windows 96 style have rounded edges? Rounded edges on a computer display always looks fucking gay.
    I fell asleep on the couch last night and had a weird ass dream. I was dreaming that I was in the Shadow Temple from Ocarina of Time. I was in the one room with the rotating scythe statues (gif related) but there were a shit ton of re-deads surrounding me not really doing anything. Then out of nowhere one of them did that scream right in my face while pointing at something behind me, before I could turn I ended up getting chopped in half with my upper body just sort of lying on the stone floor bleeding out. The weirdest part was that I then woke up but I was on the floor crawling on my stomach like I was pretending to dodge the shit that just killed me, this went on until I fell asleep again. But when it all turned black after closing my eyes I had actually woken up for real back on the couch.
    So I guess that means you can only properly experience death in your dream when there's some sort of inception effect, otherwise you just black out before you actually croak.

    I am so fucking sick of trying to watch clips of podcats on youtube and getting met with videos where every curse word is censored. It really pisses me off how Youtube is so cucked now that people are just THAT addicted to their sweet sweet ad revenue click dollars. What's even the point of trying to watch something on the internet when it's all scrubbed down like regular television?

    On a side tangent, the "internet" crowd looking to be more "purist" (might not be the most fitting word) about online content is a niche at this point, not the majority. Seems like a lot of people just want their content to be more convenient/free television. Everything has to be a clean sterile dramatized ad friendly product. I don't necessarily hate high production values in online videos but I hate shit like those Nick Robinson vids where instead of just factually documenting some niche gaming thing it has to turn into this whole three act arch centered around his personal journey related to a McDonald's DS game or something. Meanwhile this is all based on knowledge groups like Assembler Games would concisely share for free.

    I agree. And part of the problem is you. In a sense.
    After all you keep coming back to that site.

    If we stop coming to youtube it eventually leads to a change and youtube needs to throttle down on their censorship because of dwindling traffic. Or they even double down and become much more restrictive, causing more creators to look for an alternative.

    The biggest problem is that normal John/Jane Doe people on youtube don't care. They'll watch anything you put in front of them which is how we've ended up in this consumerist hellhole we're in today. People like us who want something more can leave but the reality is that we're a minority because the game is different now. We don't like loud, in your face, marvel humor meme videos but normalfags are able to tolerate it. I can dislike every video that annoys me but it makes no real difference unless more people had standards like mine, and we all know it would be nothing but insanity if the world was designed to cater to only one exact person like a hivemind.
    Do any of you guys actually think fish like, let alone mind being in tanks?
    Can they process the potential idea of the world they're in not being real or unatural?

    I think they just are just thinking something like "haha I'm a fish" 24/7 and don't think about much else

    I just realized I've been here for a little over a week and I'm already making fun of newer users. This place has assimilated me and my poor zoomer dopamine receptors never stood a chance.
    I wish to quit 4chan for good. Does anyone have any advice for cutting a website like this out of my internet surfing?
    I'm constantly feeling frustrated because I finished my summer college courses like over a week ago and I can't relax because my parents keep making me take care of stupid bullshit that wastes my time and energy. I have only less than 4 weeks to relax and work on my personal projects but it's hard to focus when I can't find my rhythm to work due to always being mildly frustrated. But that's life I guess.
    I had a fucked up dream where my dad dematerialized out of existence and when I turned around my entire house had been infested with mites that were the size of my palms. I tried killing them with my favorite pair of flip flops but they kept coming out of the woodwork and for some reason my dad was the only person in the dream who knew how to exterminate them completely.

    Why can't these spyware fuckers just let me have one good thing?
    Now I have to fucking install Firefox or Brave, and who knows when they'll fuck up their UI.

    Firefox is aight, the m$ edge is suprisingly fast and good with features, eg. has vertical tabs natively and they work good, in chrome or firefox it must be an extension that works half as bad.

    If you want performant browser with minimum bloat though go for chromium (it's what all the browsers are based on except firefox). It might need minimum work, but you can get started in couple minutes following some internet tut

    Unironically I use Edge. It is good now ™ . But if I wanted to be different I would totally go back to Firefox.

    So now that I've been on here for a day I want to ask. How many people actually use this site?
    I know forums are slower and tend to be small worlds so I'm not expecting it to be huge but I just want to know if the community of active users is growing, shrinking, or keeping the same.

    You literally have the user statistics on the bottom of the page. No other site lets you see this. And yes its growing. The amount of newfags is keep getting more.

    I understand that I could've just used that window but I wanted to get some community perspective. I know I'm a newfag so I might as well ask a newfag question so I can learn to read the room better. Made more sense to me to see what you guys feel about the site and it's history as opposed to just assuming the average user count has always been 20 and will continue to be 20 until the owner forgets to pay the bills.
