Welcome to the Random Thought Thread (RTT).

The random thought thread can be used to discuss pretty much anything. Debate, talk about your day, and to just post random daily thoughts that may come to you. Don't worry about double posts here.
Enjoy!

Previous Random Thought Thread:
Random Thought Thread (RTT) 51

Hm, might as well start this while everyone is spamming the previous thread.

BTW, Firion would know, but how many iterations of that thread opener did I go through before I ironed out all the tpos?

oh the irony

>>3 Apart from href fuckups, I dont think you ever made typos. Or me dum cuz not C

I remember there being a typo in the first post for the longest time ever. Also did you change your tripcode?

oh thread 44 got 404'd.

>>5 This is the earliest tripcode I used when I first playing the game thread back in 17s

>>6 no that's just you fucking up the href bruh

>>7 (Firion) Ah.

https://dollars-bbs.org/random/res/1509153030.html

RTT 43. There's a typo there. Also just says "your day" instead of "talk about it" and so on.

There was also the run of ~4 RTTs that were called the "Random Though Thread." I forget when that was.

>>8 I don't think that's really a typo though, its still conveyed pretty straightforwardly I think.

>>9 AH OF COURSE, THOSE FUCKERS.

Just checked. 43 and 45.

Laundry takes forever.

.... Did name fucking break it. 'Cause it's not open to me.

>>13 When I went to get those screenshots, it was just open. Reloaded and it was still open. I was confused and thought it would just give me an error saying I couldn't post in there when I tried making a new post. Apparently not.

>>14 (Name) The world is broken.

Another update to password script because closed threads would break it.

btw, what does the password script do?

>>17 (NZ) Allows you to delete any replies you posted anytime you want. The original system doesn't let you set up your own password to delete it later on, but instead it uses the hash of your IP address which we all understand as "You can delete your post as long as your ID hadn't changed from the time you posted it."

The script simply disables that standard procedure of IP hashing and allows you to set up your own password instead.

>>18 And because everyone's got dynamic IP nowadays, every delete button comes with an expiration date.

Only in BBS, probs.

>>18>>20 Also, IDs were hashed differently in each boards. That way, you can't figure out whether the anon on Animation is the same anon as the one on Music, unless they come out themselves.

>>17>>18>>20>>21 Forget what I just say about the IP, its all bonkers.

I mean it does sounds logical to me, but I just talked to Name about it and turns out that my whole reasoning about it is complete bs.

lmao

I wonder, is there a way to predict the URL of the thread you're about to make.

Having a #footer at the end of an URL link in the first post will be convenient, I think. It instantly brings you to the very bottom of the page and thus, the newest posts.

something like >>footer

>>24 You can just make a link's href "#footer" and that would work. No script required.

>>26 Alright ,to whoever the next RTT's first poster is, you gotta include this link.

Actually, why don't it just be defaulted to be included in either the 'entire thread' button or the thread title or the "Post too long click here to view the entire thread" notice? That'll smooth things out, I think.

Don't blame me on that one if it fails tho.

>>27 (Firion) But why? I thought the point was that they see the whole thread.

Also no. If I'm going to crawl through threads back, I don't want to click the link and be sent to the bottom, then scroll back up.

Worst shit ever.

>>28 Lets you see new posts you missed if there isn't a >> link in the three most recent posts.

>>28 (NZ) I'm not saying every single one of them, just one of them. Also, >>29.

:thunk:

so convenience for people? isnt it faster to just type >>30 or smth

>>31 I'd rather have #footer than

>>100>>200>>300>>400>>500>>600>>700>>800>>900>>1000>>1100>>1200>>1300

Remember, this is for any thread's first post. That definitely doesn't look very tidy, does it?

hmmmmmm

ah thats what you mean

so smth like
previous thread here: link

bottom of this thread: actual link

>>32>>33 Yeah baby! That's what I've been waiting for! That's what its all about!

For real though, yeah. "Bottom of this thread" or "Latest replies" would be more informational at a glance, I think.

>>34 (Firion) You know I'm just going to forget this by the time the next thread starts, right?

that said you cant even link to the thread in OP since you dont know the resulting thread URL.

test?

rip that only works to jump to the footer of whatever page you're currently at

>>37>>36>>35 rip

An awkward looking design layout became an unsettling uncanny design just by adding VHS effect, I'm intrigued.

Case and point.

Its a gif, in case you hadn't catch on.

>>38>>39 (Firi) It's like the difference between cheap and campy special effects.

>>40 (NZ) that's one way to put it I suppose.

>>41 No shit dude, that's Nyanka.

Sorry, I just woke up.

>>42 (Firion) nah that's totally me what are you on about

anyone home?

I'm about to head off for lunch so probably not.

Well, in the process of trying to help someone with the new chat site, I got banned from Rizon's IRC servers for 6 hours because I connected with 4 clients at once. Rip in peppers.

>>47 (Na) 6 or half an hour?

take a peek on the conversation post-ban

>>48 Hex chat made it look like hex chat's auto reconnect attempts kept bumping the ban time up. We'll see when I open it back up.

Now that I think about it, though, because the server is on my computer, it might actually not be possible to have more than 3 people use it at once. I guess we'll see once I get unbanned.

Or if you can still use it.

>>50 nope, can't do. Really ded ripper

Magical, either hex chat was lying to me or rizon was lying to hex chat because I was able to get back in. I was also able to maybe get a solution to the too many connections issue. We'll see when Hype gets back from masturbating or whatever he's doing.

I realized my mom had a computer I could try from in addition to my computer + my phone

Meta is getting pretty huge, I wonder if it'll stagnate when quarantine is over though. Unless another variant happens next month.

So, looks like I'd need to make a deal with Rizon to allow my web IRC client to work, so rip. I could make it a standalone site, but it'd never be used because so few people actually use any drrr-like chat beyond durrr chat. Well, I guess it might get used if it ever got iframed onto dollars-bbs.org/chatroom, but that's highly unlikely.

>>51 (Firi) You say that, but this is the guy who can posts on closed threads. Name is magical or something.

Might just straight up make the chat site a full on drrr-like chat site with the option to go to IRC, but for now just make that option a page that says something like "Until Rizon makes a deal with Name, the option to use IRC from this site is not available."

Or maybe a page that allows everyone to chat as a single person named "chat_site_irc" or something, but disallow sending any commands, only messages. And maybe /nick so people can fight over what icon to have.

>>52 (Na) Bro... I sleb.

>>55 (Na) Market it as "the most secure communication platform on the internet"? Also the flashiest too apparently, I guess.

>>56 (Ny) I mean, I guess?

>>57 (Na) So, a board site basically?

My new laptop is so lovely. Haven't even had to plug it in yet and it's only at 50% battery. My old laptop would've been dead after an hour lol.
But I've got all of my music transferred over, all of my documents, I got all of the settings the way I like, and I just finished getting all of my favorited websites saved. I still need to get all of writing shortcuts and autocorrects added though. I can't wait to play around in pages with this new keyboard. I mentioned before that my old laptop's keyboard had certain buttons that wouldn't press right which was super annoying and it was smaller. The keyboards on the Pros are regular sized with raised buttons which is so satisfying to type on.

>>58 (Firion) I just noticed how many of us have usernames starting with N.

>>60 Someone else already made this observation in a previous RTT.

im slow on the uptake

>>61>>62 Oooooo yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh that's meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!

morning. time to sleep

The wayback machine refuses to load the lobbies of the old drrr-like chats, so I can't actually look at them. When I search for the lounge (/index.php?controller=lounge,) it just redirects me to a completely different search. If I edit the search URL while already viewing results, it just breaks and gives a 302 error.

Can someone get me a screenshot of a DRRR-like chat lounge from around 2010-2013? Back when people were still using Suin's solution instead of making their own. I don't know if any were significantly different, but just in case, I'd prefer the BBS's ( = dollars-bbs.org/chat/) or Hidden (drrr-dollars.net/hidden/ or drrr-dollars.net/hidden/member/) because the former is 100% what I'd use if we found screenshots and the latter because I used it a ton way back in the day.

>>65 Woops, <chat URL> was supposed to be before the = and the /index.php thing. For some reason, I forgot that < acts like a normal HTML open tag character on the BBS.

whats going on

>>67 Working on a drrr-like chat site. The very, very end goal being that Reltair makes /chatroom a thing and makes the page an iframe that leads to the site. It started as a standalone version of my chat script, but IRC having a maximum number of connections from any single IP made that not a thing that I can do unless someone gets me a Rizon WEBIRC login.

The Last Tiger from Battlefield 5 is a beautiful story.

Ok, so. TinyURL actually does a thing in a way I need. I wanted to create links that lead to uploaded images so they wouldn't need to be stored on the server. I can actually do this and it's magical. Just drag and drop and it'll become a URL in your textbox. I have yet to implement it, but now I know I can and it's magical.

Heck, I'm pretty certain I can make it work on normal chat script, so be prepared to enjoy that feature soon, chat script users.

Well, the links that are created work perfectly fine in firefox. Chrome highly dislikes their existence, though, and I don't know if I can get around that.

Heck, I went to test it wasn't just because I use an older version of Firefox (FF57 broke almost all the plugins I use to make using the internet the way I want to possible) by using my phone to try a generated link. It loaded perfectly fine on both.

The chat script now allows users of all browsers to drag and drop a file onto the textbox to upload them. These links won't work in Chrome, but will work on some (potentially all) non-chromium browsers.

I should probably just create a "Name's Dev Thread" thread on Tech so I can spam there instead of the RTT.

im doing the footer thing on the next thread i have.

scrolling is too much fucking pain

>>74 wait maybe i can use an external url to redirect... but is there anything that allows you to change the url of the place you're being redirected to after you've made the link?

>>75 tiny url can do it but you need to pay

>>75 I think Google Firebase lets you do that. It's not really what its URL shortening is for, but I think it's work.

Also, now that I think about it, I should post the thread here on random so I can include my (currently very little) other projects without feeling even somewhat bad about it.

Dirt got spayed yesterday. The good news is that she's acting like her usual self! The bad news is that she's acting like her usual self.... she's supposed to be resting but she just wants to run and jump and play! Such a handful..
It is amusing to see her walk around with that cone around her head though.

>>78 give me cat with birthday hat picture

lol

It's been a while.

>>80 (Ep) SO QT

>>81 (Mu) Sup

Okay, I think I found a much easier way to implement userscripts than the current method currently known around here. Will be back with an update, please use them new Dollars pseudo-updates.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1WwpDEcDeZH190fIK2_bd-fx1qSxfRJ9O/view?usp=sharing

Okay, made a guide that is also a script bundle that you can just load onto tampermonkey. Thus saving your time, its like a CD cassette that comes with a guide on how to play said cassette onto a DVD player.

:thunk: what

>>84 Here's a compressed edition that only installs the installer script, you can then select which features to download and enable from the site's newly added 'Settings' tab.

It takes a bit of time to load the feature you choose of course, they aren't available from the getgo unlike the one posted above before this one.

yknow this is giving me a strong feeling of "we'll do it ourselves, but with blackjack and hookers"

>>86 Badass gfx

Almost done with exams, almost done. I wanna be done now. It’s like, 6 AM and I should like, sleep.

I’m losin the plot, men. Head cracked like an ehhe

cried for being shouted by mum, just as usual. lol, that's a tad weird.

thought i was upset when i rushed to my room, away from everyone. in my absent mindedness, i booted up minesweeper and started clicking and flagging. before i even realize, the tears were already accumulating and spilled from my eyes.

dont think there was anything unusual today, it just came out like spontaneously. i sure am gonna remember this one for years to come lol, and even if not, the upcoming rtt skimming will remind me of it.

btw, >>83 is available on imgbb now. Link is below.
https://i.ibb.co/QYtTbqg/Reimagine-Dollars.jpg

>>87 (Pie) one of the much more radical idea was to put home page on an entirely different site hosted by a member. Hell, even worse was to have the site just scrape off BBS's content and adds some newer features from that site's server-side. That of which, would defeat every point of visiting BBS ever again.

But now that I think about it, doing that would steeply drop the site's traffic and potentially making Reltair consider to shut it down for good. And that's no good, so no.

Oh also about the uncompressed edition, turns out that the one thing that makes the zip file so heavy was the Chatroom script. The guide image was also turned out to not get pixelated even after being shrinked down 50% from its original size, hench this image now exist and you can throw it around the site. The only down side would be the lack of Chatroom, and it should be made a separate package that can't be kept within an image post-able on BBS. Those who wanted to get the full experience would have to make do with either the drive link or the imgbb one.

>>89 (Firion) :worrypat:

>>90 (Firion) Yeah uh, please don't scrape a forum to have it somewhere else.

the sound of silence

>>89 (hypepe) HypeloveHypeloveHypelove I know the kind of thing you’re talking about, with it being normal but then it just flows out. What is that? Gotta be a word for it.

>>90 (firemon) gfx feeling “Dollars Iceberg”-ish lol

>>91 Offline Dollars-BBS would be cool thing to have, tho.

>>92 Just your usual day on BBS.

>>93 (ze) Now that I think about it, its probably because she did it knowingly there's someone that wasn't a family member watching. Something to do with those typical 'parent shamed their children by whining and rambling in front of strangers about their weaknesses' and 'I felt betrayed' kinda thing, probably. Though that wasn't how I really felt, I never really hold a grudge towards anyone afterall, so how could I even do that to my own mother in the first place.

Still though, my heart ache trying to remember that so lets not talk about it until a year more or so.

Also, how would offline BBS work bru

I wonder if I could ever get enough BBS people together on any sort of consistent basis to do a DnD campaign.

>>83 (Firion) wicked sick, thanks

>>95 (Name) if there was an online dnd thing I’d be down. Or you could host it in Minecraft somehow.

I accidentally unplugged my external drive when I was transferring files picking my laptop up. I almost freaked out when it said fatal error. But I turned off the pc and plugged it back in and it worked fine. Doesn’t seem like any files got corrupt and i was only transferring images at the time. Too bad I also dropped my external drive about a foot high, the casing lifted but crystal disk showed no issues.

I make too many grammar errors typing, it’s probably I just type it in one go like I do in online games.

pogius

Sometimes, even though you know you'll regret something, you do it anyways because it seems more interesting than the alternative.

Played a game with the only non-BBS, non-family person I talk to for the first time in like a year. We played TFT Double Up. Was fun. Made my strategy more consistent and we could get him 3-stars and items so much easier than normal, as well.

>>99 (Pie) Same goes the other way, you decided it'd be wise to do nothing, then inevitably regrets not doing anything during said situation.

>>100 (Nam) Your rise will be the Dollar's downfall, and vice versa

>>101 (Firion) If you regret either way, just enjoy yourself, I guess?

>>102 yes, very yes.

very yes very?

"Every single plan relating to "Revive Dollars" is doomed to fail from the very beginning."

So why the change of heart, you might ask? After 4 damn years of trying with crippling failure, has it finally gotten to me? I suppose so you could say, but hear me out.

Dollars had no concrete goal or purpose, never did. We are simply an online platform, an online community where certain people with specific traits from around the world gather & converse with each other. And we could've ended it right there & then, but we go above and way beyond that.

The Dollars never had any goal nor purpose, but damn, we sure really liked spreading kindness all around. Even a board dedicated to it was made, "That's what the best version of Dollars were capable of achieving!" they say. But I beg to differ, that isn't Dollars, that's simply one of the better side of humanity we could show to the world.

Dollars are what its members make of it, so they chose to spread kindness on their surrounding neighborhood & offer help whenever the chance arises. But of course, that's only a portion of the entire member base. The larger part were content just sitting on their back while enjoying each other's company, every once in a while offering their aid when they feel like it.

People come together, and a community support itself. No matter what the background of someone is, there are no rules dictating who can & can't join Dollars. By coming together, we form a community, we develop kinship, we share a network of acquaintances, a network of friends. We create bonds, we cover for each other, we helped one another.

Dollars is only a means to an end, so setting its success to be your end goal is already wrong in of itself and thus a plan already doomed to fail.

People come together, and a community support itself. The bonds you've created with everyone here, I'm sure they'd be willing to help you when you ask them.

Because Dollars, are what we make of it. And since everyone is a Dollars, our personal goal will be the Dollar's goal as well. Dollars is only a means to an end, your end. And so the network of friends you've gained here, are now the means to pursue that end goal.

Dollar's victory, doesn't always meant your victory. But your victory, would have surely got catalogued into Dollar's list of victories.

>>104 yes

"THE RISE OF DOLLARS WILL BE YOUR DOWNFALL" had been written in front of my table for a few days now. This is a response to my subconscious trying to lurk BBS whenever possible in my free time, meanwhile I got a national entrance exam only a few months away. Because if I somehow managed, by pure luck, get the Dollars to start running again within these few months. Dollars will prosper, while I'd be slumped in my room being rejected by all the campuses I applied to. And I wouldn't ever be able admire the heartbeat of Dollar's activity rising day-by-day, if it costed me my future.

So about time I get my shit together.

i forgot smth i wanted to say about that topic

Plot twist, is foam a liquid or a solid? Maybe a texture/consistency? There's styrofoam, latte foam, milk foam, memory foam, soap foam/bubbles.

Styrofoam is made from styrene, a colorless and flammable liquid that has a sweet odor and is highly volatile, which is used to make plastics and rubber. Styrofoam is a solid. Or is it! Dun Dun Dun!! Jk.

soap, a substance that can come in both liquid and solid form, both giving an outcome of foam and/or bubbles. I have so far seen that bar soap gives the best foam. but is this foam liquid or solid? It's liquid. Why? because you add water to the soap bar and mix it with the residue of the sold. The warmth of your body can also melt the soap. That aside, when the foam of a soap bar is left out, it hardens again so I'm unsure of what it could be.

milk foam. It's a liquid, I shouldn't have to explain.
Latte foam is milk.

Memory foam. It doesn't actually remember the shape of your butt.
Memory foam, a viscoelastic. It is polyurethane foam and was created/made by adding various compounds and additives to polyurethane.

If there is something you would like to add on, please, enlighten me. :)

Bye bye!! <3
(⌒▽⌒)☆

Sorry to change the topic so soon. TwT

>>109 It is called random thought thread for a reason

>>108 (Saika) I would've thought that foam would be like sand. A collection of solid-like entities that together have a property similar to liquids.

hm, interesting. I very much agree :P

Took my sister to her school gathering some place, driving a car without being supervised feels crazy.

That's insane dude, now I just need to learn how to park backwards

Nom nom

>>114 you're alive!

btw RTT 51 almost sunked, rest in peace.

>>116 (Firion) Are you sure?

>>117 (Pie) um, [yeah?]

hmmm

anyways, after 72 chapters we finally figure out what the love triangle in the title of "Ayakashi Triangle" is.

>>115 (Firion)
Maybe.

So if tomato is a fruit, then does that make ketchup/tomato sauce a jam?

>>120 (Neko) More like a preserve I think?

it's a smoothie

holy shit i just noticed the threads that jodisan made.

https://dollars-bbs.org/random/res/1637259108.html

lmao

Just got new glasses. The moon isn't blurry. For the first time since I was very young, the moon isn't blurry. All my previous glasses didn't fix my eyes this much. I can actually see.

>>124 (Pie) How can you miss that one out wtf

idfk dude but now that im looking this shit is hilarious

>>127 (Pie) I'd also like to know how you missed that one lmao. But if you find it funny you should reply to it and bump the discussion up.

i have no idea how to add to it.

---

it feels really bad when you forget someone that told you something personal about themselves.

HOLY COW! Been watching him as his videos find me and that one was perfect. As he went through wind-type motivation, it was exactly me. He even gave advice that is exactly what I figured out 2ish years ago: Just rotate through 4 or 5 things as interest in them comes and then leave as anxiety grows, then go back after you forget why you even had anxiety in the first place. It's never felt like a video was describing me so accurately before.

Bro, I was having 11 tabs in incognito and then my device decides to restart itself. I didn't remember the specific URLs at all, this is so sad.

Alexa plays Kanashikute Yarikirenai

>>132 (Hupple) Be like me and just randomly close entire browser windows full of tabs like a serial killer.

>>133 (Zneg) Bro... I think what you're committing right there is called genocide.

i had the weirdest dream ever. i blame rampo.

>>135 dream journal thread moron

yeah i dont want to think about it though. it was fucking weiiiiiiiiird

>>132 (Firi) Or do what I do and don't keep tabs open at all and just save the websites you're interested in to your favorites or bookmarks.

>>132 (Firion) that happened to me about 10 times before I decided to bookmark them if I had more than 7 tabs up. All those times I opened more than 20 too.

Welp, I got some adware and I’m not sure how. I think it was from a redirect from swfchan because as I was on it, the usual redirect came up and closed, but then after my kaspersky antivirus kept showing download denied from trovi. At least it’s only happening in chrome so maybe a chrome reset will get rid of it.

>>138 Here's the Bookmarker! Get 'em!

kafka's metamorphosis is fucking weeeeeeeeeeeiiiiiiird

>>141 I thought ShindoL wrote that.

bruh. bruh

bruh

i literally wrote "kafka's"

>>141 (Pie) Man, been wanting to read that. Seems like a wild ride though lol. Isn't it about some guy who turns into a beetle or something?

Been playing this game called Alter Ego recently, pretty interesting xP the art and osts are super good too

>>144 (Haruka) Yeah. It's fucking weird.

Huh. Its been a while.

>>146 no u

>>147 yes u


Waaaaaaiiittt aren't you one of the older guys?? I mean, no offense like the ones who are very active back then?

>>148 I think my first post was 2011 or very early 2012, yes

>>149 yeeaaahh! That's why you're name is super familiar. Hello nice to meet you!

>>146>>148>>150 Wow, how's jail? lmao

Wait I can just be my trip?

Just call me Q-Sausage.

>>152>>153 felt too forced, unapporb

>>151 bro I only stayed 3 mins there. They cant handle my shit.

>>152 yes you can be just a tripcode

>>154 Apporb my ass, gunpla.

>>155 (k) fucking based.

>>156 (q) no, try harder. might fail harder tho, but by all means do try.

>>157 (poopela) I'll bang your motherboard next, fool.

"Still wrong." -Sleepology !CHs4eVJ3O2

I still can't believe to see pieface ob main reposting Read This If You're New.

Did he lose on a bet or something?

>>160 (Kurosuke) Yeah. Something like that. I don't remember the exact circumstances, but Firion didn't know how to copy the HTML so I went and reposted the thread.

>>160 Yes, I was the one who did that.

>>161 lols, OH Firi, you know you have access to a folder Findmuck made. It does have the HTML of all important threads on main

LMAO

Man, just shaved my head for the first time. Everything feels weird. Might not ever do this again.

We usually take my hair down to basically just stumps by taking the guard off the electric razor and just using that directly on my head. While showering to get all that fallen hair off me, I decided to full on shave it.

>>164 I have a feeling that no one would believe me when I say this now, but my thought process at the time thinks that coercing Pieface to post one of the holy trinity threads is more fun than having my own username to be immortalized in it.

So in summary,

Immortalize myself on the site's history as one of the notable Moon Warriors who was given a chance to post Guide threads on Main < Haha ex-troll member make Guide threads

>>165 (Name) Bleh.

>>163 (Kuro) & >>166 (Firi) ggwp.

Hype is pipe

>>166 lols that sounds like you.

>>167 yahooo its been a while

Cruel realization of no longer being a student and having an actual job now.... no winter break. :') I only get the 24th off, lame.

Also, oh wow, Kuro's back!

>>166 (Firion) tbh, is pretty funny. I think you'll have a chance soon with the FAQ thread?

>>170 (Keith) oof... my brother got a whole month off since where he works isn't really busy this time of the year

Spider-Man movie was good

A Java based exploit that recently got coverage is pretty big, I’d recommend updating any Java programs with log4j

That looks pretty cool.

>>170 eeeyyyy glad to be back !! Your trip code looks nice. I just noticed

>>170 (Keith) But at least at a job you can save money and go on a vacation.

>>172 (Bp) Got a link to where we could read about it? Or have you up it on /tech/ ?

>>173>>174 (Nz) Funnily enough, it doesn't look much different in mobile.

Made a lil bideo
https://youtu.be/nv0QaFdE8cs

>>177 (Firion) I think what Anau did was related to the CSS? Not sure how that works on mobile.

>>178 that was me showcasing the script, you can do that, with the script. it is its own mode other than HTML called Text Art, pretty sure the font was monospaced

>>179 also, the password for that post was "qwerty12345", I'm looking forward to seeing it gets deleted in the next few days.

:thunk: the div class of 173 is "aa" instead of the usual "replytext"

The Tampermonkey is wonderful. It makes the site a lot easier to use-- one of the reasons I've always avoided it. I had fun speaking to everyone on the new chat. ^^

>>177 (heplo) Infomercial video is god-tier. Beautiful. Work of art. So fucking cool.

>>180 Huh. There must be some additional component to it beyond password, because it won't let me delete it. The weird thing is that the original source code has no additional checks beyond the password, so anything added on top of that must have been added by Reltair.

smh imaging needed qol to use a site

>>183 (z) thank much!

>>185 (nz) You'll never be able to go back once you use it, Home board is a fucking godsend.

>>184 (na) Must be the "before-hashed" IP, I tried deleting my post from a few days back that already has a different ID than today and it works.

BBS and Discord could coexist, we could go hand-in-hand together. We chose not to, and that's a really stupid fucking decision to make.

I think I wrote about this before, no?

>>187 (Firi) No you haven't, but also remember that time a bunch of discord members came on here and decided to just randomly spam the Random with advertisements for different discords? And when we told them to stop they told us to fuck off and continued to spam their ads. :/

>>187 (Firion) Probably, but I don't like joining a Discord without a purpose.

>>188 Seriously? That's infuriating to hear. Are there admins on this site that have the ability to delete any posts that advertise? Or is it a free-for-all?

>>190 (Erica) Yeah, admins exist. In a very nebulous form of exist.

>>190 yeah there are admins on this site, but they are mostly not active, in some cases in order to request posts permasage or completely close them, you'll need to email the admin

If you want to read this post with the preview function instead of opening the entire thread: >>193

>>188>>189 (ny) For real? I thought I did, although that was me para-phrasing the content of the essay. You might not remember it that way, I guess.

>>191>>192 (nz) Flashbacks to 1339 incident.

It is actually a blur on who actually cut-off contacts first between Discord & BBS. But what we do know from today's information, is that Dollars Discord never mentioned the site anywhere on their welcome page. We could argue that its because the regulars from back then are too pre-occupied with the site and couldn't be bothered to check what was going on inside the server. After all, Discord wasn't so popular back then. Thus, they couldn't be bothered to even care mentioning us either.

As our glory days receded further into the past, activities slowed down to a crawl, and more & more people migrated to the next hottest centre of activity. The site's regulars at the time had neglected the networking part of being in an organization, and they too dispersed away at the end of the day. Leaving us a sinking ship, which brings us to our current situation.

Or I'm just gaslighting myself and Discord folks were actually THAT despicable to not associate themselves with us for whatever reason. Like BBS and IRC, of course Discord could coexist with BBS, if you think about it. Either we or they, chose not to.

Btw, found that discord thing I was referring to. It has a different premise though, guess I recalled wrongly after all.

Btw, the preview function also works on that URL so you don't need to open the thread. You'll miss out on some of the hilarious responses though.

But in summary, if you're going to stop visiting the site, you might as well stop visiting any platforms associated with Dollars. Like waters in a pond, they stagnated and eventually became an environmental hazard. If you and your friends are going to graduate from Dollars, make a private group and keep yourselves with your friends in-check over there. Else, you'd just keep the cycle of old-and-new members stuck.

Could be wrong, its an opinion and not a fact. I feel like I need to address that at the very least.

Btw did you know, Nintendo a recent while ago took down almost all the internet checkpoints posted by taia777 on Youtube.

What a huge fucking party popper

>>193 (Firions) I'm waiting for a threa dto reach 1340 posts.

>>195 (Firi) i hate Nintendo. all those stories GONE

>>197 (k) In a better light of news, someone made an archive in april earlier this year. If you click a video, you can change the URL's /videos/ to /comments/ and it will show you all the archived comments of said video.

https://hobune.stream/channels/taia777

I just had this thought, why did I feel some sort of pressure when seeing a new post or thread, whether its an urge to reply or ignore. Being someone who knew no better must be nice, just reply to every single thing away. Who knows, maybe someone would be happy for getting a response from their expressed piece of mind.

People just wanted to connect, so they reached out. Hoping for someone out there who would reach out as well, and it sure doesn't feel nice to be ignored.

Random Thought: The sin of being a bystander, idk, OLGKubera brought that up a lot.

[Imagine beheading a 14 year old girl.]

I should probably make a thread about that.

👀

>>201 (FindMuck) pog

>>200 (Firion) What?

Is that Blanc on missions? Welcome back!

>>203 WHO DRAGGED BLANC BACK FROM ACROSS STYX

>>204 (Firi) Kuro? lmao
Zombies come in hordes after all. Just you wait Barabi is probably gonna resurface too or some other og member.

>>205 Not really, it seems like he was interested in my thread on Main and then goes on a replying spree in Mission and Suggestion board.

Now how do I convince yall fucks to use Home board.

if i drank fast enough, i could have a continuous supply of water from my fridge's water thingy. cup, straw, fridge water, endless water

>>206 (Firion) You can't. Or maybe you can with Bitcoins.

Maybe we should update Firelily's welcome guide on intro board with newer links. I can provide the template. Anyone willing to post it?

you post it

>>210 (NZ) Ehhh? My time here as the OP of important threads is done hahhaha if ever, I want someone else to leave their footprint too hahaha

ah. well firion or someone else i guess

Ah, wow. When did RTT get Remade? renovated? I forgot what word you would use.. Oh well. I didn't even notice. lol
:)

(maybe re--use? Ahhhh, I'm not sure. remade seems okay)

>>213 (Saika) Remade, yeah. Like last month. This one looks like it'll live a few more months, too.

I sometimes wish I was there to remake the RTT.

>>215 (k) Too bad, gonna have to wait until 2022 for the next chance to arise. I'd suggest make it early, like 50+ posts too early because that's how Pie's game works.

Wow, the rise of Dollars will really be my downfall... I should really stop this shit, but its already been ongoing so idk if I could juggle this with my studies.

#footer debate
>>24>>25>>26>>27>>28>>29>>31>>32>>34>>35>>36

>>74

Idk, I just wanna do that.

>>217 It works, wat.

>>218 (zengat) Using #footer doesn't work as it drags you to the bottom of whatever page you're currently on. So if you view this from Random, it drags you to the bottom of Random.

>>218 it dont, rip.

>>49 Actually Name, isn't this just you using 4 accounts at the same time? Now that I look at it more closer...

[52]NameExp2
[52]Name
[52]NameExp
[52]VanillaName

In case anyone is unaware, pressing the home or end key on desktop will teleport you to the top or bottom of whatever page you're on. No scrolling needed.

>>221 It's almost like that's exactly what I said >>47

>>223 I mean, so you're not actually banned because everyone else who connected through you were recognized by the system as you? Its just you testing with 4 account and then got banned?

>>222 No, we're dum so we need clickable #footer button.

Merry Christmas everyone!!

>>222 (FindMuck) bruh i wish i knew that earlier

>>226 (Kurosuke) You too.

Christmas.
The one boring holiday where none of the shops are open and I'm forced to do nothing at home.

>>226 >>227 no u

Finished rereading Sweet Home, man that ending was insane. Kinda want an OVA anime of that footage thing they're trying to record during some one-third part of the story. The live-action adaptation's first episode felt underwhelming, so I went back to the manhwa and marathon it out to the very last.

Every episode always leaves the story hanging, so you will always be dying to read the next one. And the ending, man... What a way to end a story.

Chrimtas is great, all the geld I could quaff.

I got gold coin chocolates this year. Beautiful, wonderful world we live in. Dystopia is when I finish them and they become shiny gold-colored wrappers.

>>230 (zengat) "all the geld I could quaff"?

>>231 queef*

aight mate. still not making sense

I eat the chocolate.

>>226 (Kuro) merry Christmas

Staying indoors has finally taken a toll on me, I was out walking in a park and could already feel pain in my abdomen in a mile

>>206 >>205 *v*

Damn, the server really chugs when you check the archives these days :\ Unless my phone just hates this site.

>>236 lmao. This keeps happening. It's like we're all on the same cycle.

>>237 wow you're here. Zombies do come in group after all

I thought to count as a horde it needed to be 3.

>>239 (Pie)
Can count me as one.

>>239 (nzp) well, i kinda included blanc. ? And see >>240 there's four of us now. That's your horde pie.

>>240 Neko rising from the dead just to spite NZP is such a chad move, an absolute sigma grindset.

too many zombies. soon enough this apocalypse will kill us all

Better zombies than Covid, according to some people.

>>244 We truly are living in the lamest dystopian world.

MM, DELICIOUS. DYSTOPIA. MY FAVORITE SNACK.

>>245 (Firion) At least there's news?

>>246 (Saika) Do you have it with sauce?

>>247 (Pie) Yeah, I guess.

>>244 (Firion) we’ll try another dystopia in the metaverse

Holy cow the reply section looks so barren in mobile after using all my mods for so long.

Anyway, I tried to sleep off some sickness, but it just got worse over the tiny 3 hours my brain decided I could stay asleep for.

>>252 (Name) Welcome back to the Stone Age.

Another nap, still sick. Can't even talk very well because I keep choking on my own uvula.

>>255 Wtf, please make sure there is someone to check on you.

^

>>248 (pie) yes. yes, I do have my dystopia with sauce. I eat it like tteokbokki.

everywhere...

at the end of time.

Time has no end nor beginning

Dude killed a police officer, took their car, ditched it for a semi truck, ditched that for some random car, and, as I last heard, is holding some woman hostage. Wild end to 2021.

>>261 (Name) You say that and there's still a few days left...

I'm annoyed that I have this $25 gift card to Target, but Target won't ship items unless you spend $35. I also don't like Target anyway. Their groceries are overpriced and their clothing is cheap quality.

>>260 (Saiker) Time ain't real.

>>261 (Nombre el Sombre) Holy shit, sounds like a movie.

>>262 You've jinxed us. (;; -.-)

>>262 (Nyanka) I forgot how last year ended.

How many years do you guys think it will take before humanitty completely forgets about the pyramids and the great wall?

>>266 (Nzpieface) I’d assume when we space travel and leave earth and our history books are filled to the brim where even significant events become insignificant. So maybe 2760 years?

Checking back in, been a while

>>266
Probably over a decade if you ask me.

In all seriousness it'd have to be at least after they get destroyed, they've lasted this long I see no reason to think they're gonna be destroyed in the next few thousand.

>>267 Sort of irrelivent if we're in space or not, while I do realize history is happening at an exponentially faster rate now than in the past, i think people ON earth are always going to remember it while it's around. He said humanity as a whole, while a faction of people in space may know nothing of earth, but still the people on earth probably will.

Birth date and time have been set, assuming she doesn't decide to come early on her own.

my dude

Finally watched the last movie in the Back to the future trilogy, what a wack ride.

happy new years

>>272 Happy New Year!!!

>>269 (Name) congrats on your new sibling

Happy new years

>>274 (Boop) I thought it was niece. I think? I'm not backreading.

>>264 (pie) I forgot what happened in 2020 completely, lol
>>275 (pie) pretty sure it was a niece. OwO

Oh yeah, yesterday was my mom's birthday! how fun. Happy birthday to her. (*･ω･)ﾉ”┌iii┐♡ She went to a party, drank a lot, and snuggled with a cat that I get to see again today(hopefully) because we are going back to her friend's for new years. (I'm only there for the cat) ଲ(^ⓛ ω ⓛ^)ଲ Neko go nyan

thats a lotta kaomoji

>>275 Correct.

ja

Happy new year.
2020 cons: Covid was/is still a problem, corporations became even bigger douchebags, people are still racist, I'm incredibly broke and had to get a second job.
2020 pros: At the very least the American government didn't implode on itself again this year because we have an actual politician in charge instead of an orange jackass, Marvel really took over and became the mvp of the entertainment industry, went on a vacation and got to see lots of new stuff, I bought a house and moved away from my parents.

Anyone else wanna add anything?

>>280 How about the fact it was 2021?

^

>>281 Listen... Most of that stuff is still applicable to 2020 anyway.
But yeah *2021.

But yeah, I do want to add something. Hopefully it doesn't apply to 2022.

Guess what. I was working on new year, DURING THE COUNTDOWN. What away yo start the year

>>275 (NZPIEFACE) oh

>>278 (Name) congrats on your new niece

>>285 (Kurosuke) Oof... Wanna rant?

IS ANYONE THERE?

>>288 No, no one can be "there." They can only be "here," because they can never exist somewhere they're not.







Keepo

>222 This is so useful to know lol

>289 Ah, you see, that's where things get confusing. Sure, by asking if anyone is "there", NZ is implying that they are not "there", and are thus "here". So no one is "there". But, if someone else were to answer, "yes, I am here," they are implying that their "here" is NZ's "there". So there are now people "there".

Thus, the statement that no one can be "there" is false - no one can be in their "there", but everyone else can. Similarly, no one can be in anyone else's "here", except for the specific person to which said "here" belongs.

Of course, this is all assuming that "there" and "here" are subjective measures. And yet, assuming that "there" and "here" are objective measurements, this statement would also be wrong. According to the original statement (>>288), we can safely assume that "there" is anywhere but where NZ is. As such, it is highly unlikely that no human has ever been "there".

The one truth that is shared between us (which also happens to be the only part of that sentence that I haven't refuted) is that one can never exist somewhere they're not.

(in case it wasn't apparent, I write in jest, and no, I don't have anything better to do lol. school starts tomorrow for me and I finished all my winter break to-do things yesterday so I just have a blank in my schedule for the whole day to do whatever)

oops looks like I didn't quote properly aha >>222 >>289

these are some weird fucking echoes.

>>290 (cxvz) that's deep man. When I have time I do ponder on ideas like these. But I can never have enough time. Im too tired at my work.

>>287 (pie) since the stock market was open on the 31st, we also have to work on the 31st. Its so weird to work when you everyone is either resting or celebrating during the count down. I felt so fcking bitter that I have to work . But that life. I can only rant.

>>293 (Kurosuke) sounds shit. i hope you got holiday pay for that at least.

>>294 that's the worst part. Only half is the holiday (you see I work on night shift 7pm to 4am ) so the only paid part is from 12 to 4.

>>295 That's poopy

>>295 (Kurosuke) that... that sounds like it shouldnt work that way, but i also cant think of a refute to it

>>296 (Findmuck) i know right???
>>297 (Pie) lol. They always find a way. But looking at the silver lining, at least I have work. Its just... Too much work lols.

So I hope your new years are better than mine. What customs do you guys do at new years? In PH, we have to have 12 spherical shaped fruits at the dinner table for good luck for the upcoming year, 1 fruit is equal to 1 month.

>>298 (Kurosuke) Nothing.

>>298 (Kuro) I went to bed and then got woken by very loud fireworks at midnight. Was not a happy cat.

I watched Hilda: The Mountain King the other day and it was really just a perfect movie. The writing in Hilda is just so phenomenal. I love all of the characters and the plot. The art style is also very cute. I can't remember if I said this the last time I reviewed Hilda, but I'll say it again anyway, I love that Hilda's mom is a real character with a voice and feelings. In so many other children's shows the parents are just background characters that if are used in the plot at all are just mere tools to get the mc moving. In Hilda though her mom is as much part of the action as Hilda herself is. All of the characters and how they interact with each other is what makes the show so realistic despite being a fantasy cartoon. Would recommend 100%.

>>298 (Kurosuke) Not exactly a culture/country thing, more of a personal thing, but I always listen to a song to count down to the new year. I choose a different song every year; this year it was "Goodbye to a World" by Porter Robinson.

>>300 (Nyanka) Huh, I just watched a bit of the first episode of Hilda, it seems interesting. Maybe I'll check it out.

Well, first day back to school and there're already two tests announced for the end of the week, fun. They also extended online classes for another week. At least I get to sleep in because there’s no commute time.

that sounds... "fun"

>>298 (kurosuke) my mom likes to gather family members with some drinks as we wait for the (local) countdown.

>>301 (cxvz) online classes sure are convenient. I don’t know how it will affect those in primary and secondary school though

i cant really think of a moment in my life that i'll remember forever.

maybe i'll remember my first memory forever, maybe i won't

before i go to sleep i want to say:

the pope has played undertale, apparently.

>>304 Interestingly, the moments I remember the longest are also the moments I become 'self-aware' (like, in the moment I think "huh I might remember this" and then I actually remember it lol)

>>305 That's... an oddly comforting fact

>>306 (cxvz) Worst thing I've ever learnt and ever will know: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Q4dpSYvhE0

>>307 This is... a thing... that happened yesterday, January 5th, in the year 2022...?? w- wha-

Yes. Yes, I know.

>>307 This implies that pope Francis played through the genocide route.

FACT is such a banger, the MV is also gorgeous.

Also, Youtube's live-viewer counter got fucked.

Allow me to rant for a second.

So there I was, *peacefully* writing my test. Great.
And then
AND THEN
THE FREAKING-
EXAM SOFTWARE GLITCHES AND I LOSE THREE QUESTIONS WORTH OF WORK
NOT TO MENTION THERE'S 5 MINUTES UNTIL THE TEST IS OVER
luckily my teacher let me stay wayyy overtime to rEWRITE the questions
But honestly I swear if I lose marks over this-
And it was finally a test where I was actually pretty content with my answers and would have finished *PEACEFULLY* on time HAD THE EXAM SOFTWARE NOT-

So anyways, how were your guyses days?

>>311 (cxvz) this is why i hate online exams

Apparently a lawsuit is happening with safeway,and if I don't respond to an email my personal info gets disclosed to the attorneys against safeway.

>>307 I wonder how Toby feels.

https://inspirobot.me/

this is a cool thing thats worth making a thread for

>>314 You mean this one?

One thing that really annoys me in fiction is when fights are stated to have taken longer than is realistic. Like, no, that fight with 10 attacks from both people did not take 5 minutes. At most it took 30 seconds, maybe a whole minute if they were both being very cautious and trying to read their opponent between each attack.

>>316 (Name) At first I read it as "no, that fight with 10 attacking people did not take 5 minutes" and I was very confused

am surprised this message board is still active! i think about it from time to time, it's very cool that it's still up and running

it is pog

I wonder what it would be like to have normal human dreams instead of dreams that could be directly translated to movies without any changes and make sense.

>>320 (Name) what would constitute as a normal dream

I mean like, just an normal day in a dream or something

>>318 (pl) it's very cool indeed

>>320 (Name) Assuming that 'normal human dreams' are ones where nothing makes sense and you remember between 5 and 20 percent of them after you wake up, they're not particularly fun (nor are they that interesting), at least for me. I guess every once in a while I'll get a dream that's just completely absurd or really vivid but most of the time, unless it's an ultra-clear dream, it's just... eh. Then again, I'm not sure if I'm having 'normal human dreams' though so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

>>323>>321 People often say they can't describe their dreams because they only make sense in the moment, but sound absurd when trying to turn them into words. I can't think of more than one instance in my entire life where I've had a dream that couldn't have just immediately been turned into a movie with no changes and seem like a perfectly normal, if probably badly written, movie.

That single instance still made more sense when put into words than most people I've met can do with almost all dreams, but stuck out to me because of its absurdity relative to my normal dreams. Like, my most nonsensical dream is less nonsensical than the least nonsensical dream I've heard from anyone I've personally met.

A lot of dreams can be stringed into words. A lot of those words don't make too much logical sense.

>>284 ahahahaha

My dreams always confuse me. I feel like everything is fine in the dream because all the context I need is there. You don't need great logical progression to the moment you're in if it grabs your attention enough. I tend to be really stuck in that moment in dreams, though I guess that's the same for everyone else. Lucid dreams would be when you aren't in the moment, then.

Not gonna lie, I really wanna live in one of those moments forever. (Or at least for a little while, now and then.) I wish someone sold that. Some of my dreams that I can't even remember so well (compared to how badly I remember my dreams in general) have had such a profound effect on me since and it just won't quite leave me.

>>310 Man, YouTube sucks so much ass. Better get back to watching it all day.

Man, why must I have a job? I just wanna draw, but I hardly have time to nowadays. ;A;

>>328 (Epic) Money for food, food for you.

Rewatching Attack on Titan from the beginning makes the hype moments sorta sad when you know everything

>>328 (Keith) You're telling me. I've worked 7 consecutive days totaling 51 hours in that time. I'm seriously ready to pass out.

How do you guys define "unlucky"?

Either rare bad things happen, or that rare good things don't?

>>332 This ambiguity is why, if I ever make a game with a luck stat, it'll have 3 luck stats: Good luck, bad luck, and general luck. For a very simplistic case, say an event has 3 outcomes: Good, neutral, and bad. General luck would decrease the chance of the neutral outcome occurring, indirectly increasing both good and bad outcomes. Good luck would decrease the chance of the bad outcome, indirectly increasing the chance of neutral and good. Bad would decrease good, indirectly increasing neutral and bad.

Though, using normal human terms instead of Name-created terms, "unlucky" can generally be used for either. Though, I will point out that "unfortunate" exists, and that is explicitly the bad end of the luck spectrum. When someone says something was "lucky," they typically mean it was a good thing. So, if I had to choose, it would be that rare good things don't, because "unfortunate" means that rare bad things happen.

>>333 (Name) I feel that would be pretty fun to see in a game.

>>332 >>333 (Pie&Name) Unlucky = repeatedly unfortunate.
Also someone who has very bad karma.

it's a great day when i find a new most depressing manga.

Takopii no Genzai or Octoppi's Original Sin in English is the most fucking depressing thing I've read in a while.

>>320 (name) normal human dreams huh?, i wonder if those actually exist. I mean everyone has different notation of "normal" my normal would be those dreams that doesn't make any sense that I forget right away once I wake up.

>>327 (zengat) YouTube sucks but we still use it. Is there any alternative?

>>328 (Epic) IFU T_T

>>337 Dailymotion? Vimeo? For real though, nothing comes close to something as nice as Youtube.

The loli bait threads hadn't been deleted 7 hours since it was posted, I'm impressed. Guess people had no need to hurry when it wasn't outright nsfw shoved onto their face, although now that I think about it, that's to be expected.

>>338 There's also the fact that it was posted minuted after I went to bed.

If you ever see CP threads, you can just send an E-mail to admin@dollars-bbs.org titled "Thread Deletion Request" with the body "New CP threads" and links the threads.

hm, so im guessing reltair still maintains the site?

>>340 As far as I know, he is the only one who can delete threads, yes

I've had around 6 dreams where I went to a world I've dreamed about before in the last 365 day. I think only 3 of those were direct repeat dreams. I know 2 of them were the same world, but some time had passed and events happened off screen, so to speak. Ok, yeah, definitely 3 differing dreams because those 2 + the dream where it started out on the other side of a barrier in a specific world that I've been to like 4 or 5 times before that dream.

Something in me snapped. You know that meme about men holding their emotions inside for years, and then one day they drop a glass and just fucking kill themselves. Something like that happened to me.

I've noticed I've been getting fatter, it's been bothering me but I have no ability to go anywhere like a gym, and I'm too lazy to ever put the real work into it. I swear I'm gonna end up giving myself an eating disorder.

I was mindlessly eating a pizza roll even though my stomach was already full to the point it hurt, just cause it tasted good I guess, and I saw the almost empty 2 liter I bought today, and, with no buildup, I want to make it clear before this moment I was emotionally fine, I burst into uncontrollable sobbing.

wow thats dark bro
i hope you get better soon

>>343 (Naga Sake) oof dude... at least you've realized it. now you can take steps to mitigate it.

i decided to catch up on ouroborus record today, it's been like 3 years since i last read it.

Guy literally drew just a hand and got 49K likes

Wrote the first draft for my web novels prologue.
The first page of my upcoming manga competition entry has been completed.
I'm slowly working on building a site for hosting my content, which will include a live diary and BBS based off of the old wordgear.xo site from 2004-2005, It's version 4 era mainly.

>>346 (anon) Having read the tweet itself, the guy aint wrong.

>>347 (Jay Ay) Good luck with the competition. Ganbatte!

>>348 deadass, seggs is the meta

I keep getting citi bank scam emails even though I don't have a citi account

>>343 (Naga) hope you'll get the energy to turn things around.

Got a stomach virus. I guess it's better than catching the 'rona, but I am very emetophobic, so ahhhhhh. Drinking a ton of water whenever the nausea worsens in hopes that it helps keep my stomach settled enough. Hope I recover soon, cause I have stuff to do.

>>349 Thank you!! We're biting it suuupeeerr close to the deadline honestly, like we have 2 weeks to finish... 9 pages.. and half the pages arent actually completed haha, big rush times

>>343 (Naga Sake) Sometimes a good cry is the emotional reset we need. I hope you feel better soon.

>>347 >>353 (Jaydon.A) Dang, writing a manga is impressive. Good luck with the competition (and the deadline haha)~

>>352 (EpicKeith) Oof, stomach bugs suck, especially with emetophobia. お大事に odaiji ni- hope you get well soon.

So, I just spent 2 hours clearing my driveway- with a snowblower, mind you- because the snow was *twice* the height of the snowblower... why is Canada like this

canada be canada

>>354 Jesus that sounds intense, luckily I've never seen snow www

Cleaned up the second revision of my novel's prologue earlier today! Writing for something with a need for grammar is a challenge, I'm so used to working in script writing T_T

Was wondering how this place is doing. It's dead as all fuck, isn't it.

Read some old comments from when I was around almost 10 years ago, and I'd have to agree with the people in the past that this place was just for pointless arguments and nothing more. Maybe it's changed since then but a lot of these threads I see are over five years old, so if things didn't change then they probably just became stagnant.

Are there even still admin around here?

>>357 Admin only acts upon request, so no, I suppose. He's willing to keep the site up online, but that's about it. Moderation is completely dependent on dedicated members who sent permasage/delete request through email, since spam and stuff like so crops up every now and then.

Hasn't it been that way since a decade ago?

>for pointless arguments and nothing more
isn't that the whole point of imageboard site's existence?

>lotta threads are over 5 years old
hitting the bump limit takes time, especially when visitors are in decline.

>>357 (Mean Anon!) Depends what you consider dead. Site still serves a purpose and a small, dedicated (intermittently) community.

>>358 (Nicer Anon) Kinda sad it's a "bump limit" at this point. It's really because there's not much discussion taking place on those threads. Maybe that's just because there's no senseless turmoil to incite it? Idk.

why the distinction between the two anons? defeats the purpose of anonymity i thought

I really wanna just spam email everybody on the mail lists asking for them to return sometimes... wonder how I could do that.

>>361 triple click an E-mail > CTRL+C > click your mail tab > CTRL+V into recipients > , > click the mailing list tab > repeat

>>360 (PIEZNFACE) I don't think anonymity is about treating anonymous users of the internet as one big amorphous blob, but who knows. XD

my stomach hurts.

spicy noodles, why do you do this to me.

Finally went to the hospital this morning. I swear I started off by saying that I think my tonsils are swollen, but instead of giving my anything for that they gave me a nasal spray for allergies (my nose and sinuses aren't even congested) and cough medicine. They also made me take a covid test which hurt a fucking lot.

ah, that kinda sucks.

italian senate. google it. i wonder how well this ages in the next few months.

Wow, can't even fit the entirety of my most recent dream on one screen without zooming.

>>366 (PAI) HAHAHAHAHA this made my day

I Will Possess Your Heart has a super long intro before the actual song and I think it's really worth it. That is all

Nice to see that some of the same people are still around. Good to know people are doing well

i really like the manga mahou shoujo risuka

Nice to see a fan of The Correspondents out in the wild. (Even if it's just Fear & Delight you like.)

so imagine a thing that winds up a string at an uneven speed. like a fishing rod.

ive been thinking about how to add smth to it to make it so the speed is even, without changing how someone operates the fishing rod thing itself.

>>372 It's hard to describe with words this thing you just made me invent in my head, but let's go. This wouldn't perfectly solve your problem, but it would reduce the jerk involved.

Say there's a gear on a horizontal bar. So, you'd have that gear be spring-loaded toward, say, the right, so when it's not rotating, it sits on the very right side of the bar.

Now, add a cone with the large side on the right, and make the teeth of this gear also be spring-loaded radially outward so the gear and the cone interface.

Make the teeth of the gear be slanted in such a way that, as it picks up speed relative to the cone, it moves toward the small side. The power of the rightward spring and the slant of the teeth would have to be calibrated so it keeps your specified RPMs when you increase the RPM of the rod.

This would not work well in high torque + rapid RPM changes (though this probably wouldn't matter in the case of a fishing rod) or when keeping the RPMs exactly the same is needed. It would also make it so it automatically increases torque as the load increases, which would also lower RPMs, which may or may not be desirable.

This is a very imperfect idea, yes. I imagine it would be annoying to make a version that doesn't snap or come lose or something, but I imagined it the instant I read your post.

>>372 A lower gear ratio coupled with a flywheel, she be smooth as butter.

I tried to read >>373 but I am too braindead today. >:

I just spent two hours on drrr.com, participating or lurking in various conversations including, but not limited to: listening to some guy rant about his love life; making incomprehensible animal noises (animal noise texts?) at each other; having a very glitchy conversation regarding cigarettes; and talking about music. What have I accomplished in these two hours, you ask? Nothing. Absolutely nothing. Was this two hours well spent? Good question.

welcome to the internet

often times, I wish I could just stay asleep forever, wandering through the many worlds my brain conjures up

>>380 (Name) wouldn't you need to wake up to conjure new dreams?

I got a COVID booster on Thursday and I was like... incredibly sweaty the next day. It was very gross feeling. It's a common side effect, but still sucked. But hey, feeling better today! Still resting though, since it's the weekend anyways.
I'm hoping that this week I don't have to spend my free time resting due to feeling like shit, cause I'd really like to draw a bit.

I finally learned to park, and it wasn’t really like those coolmath games I played long ago

wait, what math games? I dont think ive played any of them before with the theme of parking a car

i miss those days when i was an active dollar member. life was just school and anime. now i have to think about adult stuff (im 20 btw). feels weird. anyways, hi.

>>384 (Nzpieface) https://www.coolmathgames.com/0-parking-fury

>>385 (Rin) and in 10 more years we’ll probably reminisce about the young adult life, or until the midlife crisis age happens. Also welcome back

>>386 (Boopwrang) That's actually pretty hard...

The tiny is here! 41 minutes late and super fat. Now I just wait 48+ hours for her to return home so I can see her IRL.

>>388 Tiny is here :0 congrats!

"the tiny" sure is one way of describing a newborn

>>388 Congratters brutha

It'd be crazy if I wake up one day.

uh

I ate so much pasta and chicken yesterday. True bliss....

I held her~~~~~~

Super cute. Almost fell asleep with her on my chest because I was woken up 3 hours early.

>>394 (Keith) >>395 (Name) Congratulations.

I feel like I've been brain dead for the past week after getting sick. Super bleh. At least I only fainted the one time though. There were some seriously close calls though after I started going back to work. Of course while I was sick I watched a bunch of series and movies.
First off Archive 81 dropped on Netflix which was surprisingly good. Comments kept saying that it was based off of a horror podcast, but the trailer didn't look scary so I decided to give it a try. It is in fact not scary. It had a couple creepy moments, but it was mostly just mysterious and suspenseful. A good watch although it ended on a cliffhanger.
I also watched the new Spiderman movie which was very good. Even though I think it was really more like a filler movie to create context for future Marvel movies that'll explore the multiverse because the plot was kinda lacking. I'm more excited for the new Dr. Strange movie and I've also seen that there's supposed to be a new Spiderverse movie coming out in 2023.
I finally gave in and watched Bridgerton too. Very dramatic with lots of awful looking dresses. I think season 2 will be better, but even still I'd recommend Downton Abbey over Bridgerton any day.
My sis and I also watched the new Matrix movie together. It was interesting to say the least. I think my sis kinda summed it up by saying that it felt like it was supposed to be a sort of bonus clip ending to the original Matrix trilogy and then it ended up being two and a half hours long... I was not upset to see most of the Sense8 family back together though. I honestly wouldn't mind if the Wachowski's just made random movies about whatever catches their fancy kinda like how Wes Anderson does.
I also, finally, watched s2 of Skam Espana. I've seen Skam Italia like 3 times and Skam France a few times as well, but kept pushing Espana to the back burner for no real reason. Well, I finally watched it and I mostly liked it. I was kinda annoyed with Cris for the first half of the show, but she did grow on me and I loved Joana right away. The season was by far the least dramatic of all of the Skam remakes which was very refreshing.
I feel like I've watched more stuff, but I don't feel like getting too much into it lol. I'm probably gonna put a pause on tvs and movies for a while too and work on crafts. I really need to finish painting my ceiling...

I've been reading a lot of manga on my backlog recently.

Liar Satsuki Can See Death is pretty damn good. I love how adorable the main character is.

Killer Shark in Another World is similarly adorable, with how often the main character gets bullied to tears. Wild ride though.

Eugh I have three major papers due back-to-back, two due today and one due Sunday. I've only finished one of those papers so far. Help

On an unrelated note, I finally watched Kimi no na wa and I think I'm still in denial? Like, it only vaguely registers in my brain that I've watched it. I think this is gonna be one of those cases where the rewatch hits way harder than the first watch.

>>398 (cxvc) Can't help, but good luck.

also whats wrong with your name lmao.

>>396 (Nyanka)
Love how I'm congratulated for pasta in the same line that Name is congratulated for getting to meet the baby. Goes to show the wide variety of sources of happiness, lol

>>395 (Name)
Congrats, btw!! I bet it's a nice feeling to meet a new family member. :)

hm

hmm

The first day, I held her for 2 hours. Yesterday, I held her for 4 hours. Today, I held her 8 hours. If this continues, I'd hold her for 16 hours tomorrow and then never let her go from the next day.

>>403 (Name) No, you'll just turn a day into 48 then 96 then 192 hours and so on.

im tired

Sad. I feel sick today, so no tiny today. No way am I risking making her sick.

Though, my intuition says it's the first ever manifestation of chocolate milk withdrawal. Still not going to risk it.

>>405 (devi) Sleep: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_AWIqXzvX-U

>>404 Name accelerating us towards the next ice age by inadvertently adding more hours to the day.

>>406 (Name) I hope you get well soon, but make sure you're really well before you go near the baby again.

You guys should try this sometimes:

Buy a packet of streaky bacon and cook the slices in different ways until you find something you really like.

>>409 (Pie) Bacon ga haraam desu

it tastes good so... yeah

I moved my bed. It is now not by the super drafty window. Which is nice since there is supposed to be a snowstorm today...

Thinking about the story of the goose that shits out golden eggs, shouldn't the dude just have hatched more of them if possible? Y'know, get the goose egg production really going.

>>413 I always sorta vaguely assumed the eggs were inert.

>>413 I always sorta vaguely assumed the eggs were inert.

>>410 (cyphael) We always feel the watchful gaze of the BBS' arch-angel.

>>414 >>415 How even

Lots of snow.
No work for me.
Even though I slept poorly last night being anxious about having to drive in the snow with my tiny car. But when I texted my boss this morning she said I didn't have to come if I didn't want to. Anxiety was for nothing.

>>417 A bunch of people I know have and will have to drive in the ice and snow regardless because of shitty workplaces. :(

ah. 2012 was a decade ago

and 5/2/22 was yesterday

^ And time continues forward.

hmm, seems it has.

i read flowers of algernon yesterday.

>>422 Did you watch the movie tho??
It's a pretty good adaptation.

>>424 (Nyanka) I don't know why, but I don't really have the patience to sit down and watch a movie, though I'd spend hours more to read a book.

There's a weird smell in the house, but it's super strong in my room. Only way I can describe it is it smells like that weird relative you see at every family gathering that you've never talked to and you swear your mom has talked to them before, but she swears that they've never seen a.tone with that description before.

Mom smells something, but she says it smells like poo. It definitely does not smell like any kind of poo I've ever had the displeasure of smelling before.

Uh, is it a gas leak? Or is it something mouldy or going off...

1917 is a nervewracking hell of a ride.

Downfall is next on the list.

I just realized that Caitlin was the one that fucked up Arcane's story the most and set it off its deep end by releasing Vi.

Well, that didn't end up where she wanted to.

I've been getting headaches recently. Shit sucks. I should fix my sleeping schedule or something.

Never in my life have I ever been so disrespected as to be killed by Vi ult's secondary damage

until today

Shit is an anagram of sith, so sithlord is an anagram of shitlord.

>>432 The power of the shit grows as a new shitlord rises from their ranks.

Finally got an offer with a client. Passed the background check and I have the drug test on Friday. And once the onboarding process is completed and they get the laptop shipped out to me, I'll be all ready to start working. :)

Portal and No Man's Sky, in Nintendo Switch. Sounds like a really big deal

>>435 (cyphael) What content? Also, I just realized that you changed C8Hypela into something kind of actually readable.

>>436 (nzp) Content? I thought it was just a port. Valve game ported on Switch is practically unheard of before this.

A guy got banged to death by a horse in Enumclaw some time ago, look it up.

>>434 (Keith) Congrats! Now you don't have to work those crummy jobs.

>>437 (cyphael) Ah, didn't know.

I'm waiting for Firion and his explanation on the Rushia situation.

>>440 (Nz) I heard nothing... until I started DIGGING! I hadn't kept in touch with the latest news as of late, y u.

During stream, a discord DM notif popped. The message reads "I just finished streaming and were going home now!"

According to most sources I found, the sender's nickname is Mafumafu. And without much context to begin with, the rrats soon piled up and the fiery hate messages started rolling in. And since majority of Mafu's fans are female, the amount of hate he received is probably a lot more than the amount Rushia took. Because "female fans are far more radical in their witch hunting yadda yadda."

It is also especially ironic because her latest merchandise was an artwork of her wearing bride gown and an engagement ring, which was released near Valentine's day.

>>441 (Firion) Hmm, that's kind of a PR disaster I guess.

>>441>>442 This fanart doesn't even have the official hashtag, I'd reckon it is made solely to fuel the drama even more.

thats some good meme

Top tier shitpost fam

Mom told me to go a car washing place by myself, so its my first time.

They rekt the front bumper when its finally our car's turn, after I queued for 2 hours, and we are now passing the 3rd hour, they still hadn't finished washing it.

Mom goes mad over the phone, my older nephew too phoned me to talk to the manager because mom told him. And I'm stuck in the middle, not wanting to deal with this shi.

I just wanna be at home with my pptx

>>446 Always remember to package the pp.

ppt game prototype done

Spec requirement is Microsoft Office 2016, can't guarantee if it would work well in earlier Office version, but by all means please try it.

Is it good enough? Which part is the most fun? Should I explore this concept even further? Critiques are appreciated.

Btw in case you didn't know how to start a ppt show, press F5.

Uh, on the second slide, with the blue thing, why is the animation for moving the box displayed to the viewer?

The game reminds me of The World's Hardest Game, but with a mouse instead. Though with a mouse instead... So I guess it reminds me of those shitty jumpscare games I played way back in elementary.

I think the concept is fine. Games normally have a player avatar, but I guess that's the cursor in this case. It's kind of unique to see a... I guess this is a platforming game, with a cursor. By nature, that gives the player a lot of freedom regarding movement that can't be restrained without the game feeling really shit to play.

The most satisfying part about the whole thing was figuring out the rhythm of the last part, and finishing it in a few seconds after failing it beforehand.

I think it would be fine to explore the concept further, just if you plan to have longer levels, set up some checkpoints.

Colour-coding the buttons was pretty nice, but you really shouldn't use yellow or blue for them as that confuses the player. Similarly, if you have something glowy, don't make it a similar colour to something else on the screen, as it's supposed to represent danger while other things don't.

A suggestion would be to change up the rhythm of the spinning things to add a bit more challenge. Another suggestion is to add moving platforms and other kinds of gates, but that's a really basic thing.

happy valentines day for ya'll in america.

^ Yah. I bought chocolate. Don't really feel like doing much of anything else to celebrate.

>>449
>why is the animation for moving the box displayed to the viewer?
it's a foreshadowing.

I guess the color does bear a striking resemblance to Scary Maze, I really like cyan tho so I'm keeping it no matter what.

>satisfying part about figuring out the rhythm of the last part
I experimented with this on a first try and the difference is clear as day, the gameplay's looks and feels become much more dynamic.

>color-coding button with yellow and blue
I'm getting stuck with the color palette actually, so I don't think I could do much about it. At most, I'll probably tell the players more directly to differentiate between the goal and the not goal. That's where the alien symbol thingy comes in, and probably should refer to the symbol more instead of the color orange.

In any case, suggestion and feedback thank. I'll be taking it from there.

>>450>>451 Valentine? What is that? Is it edible?

mood

Main board is currently busy doing themselves, I don't even care anymore. Imma just be chillin' with my RTTbros and IRCbros.

Well, until I got enough brain space to waste, then I'll care.

Man, I cannot even begin to bother with the Main board stuff right now. Just same old same old on a not-so-unprecedented scaled. I can't bring myself to bash anybody about it but I also can't bring myself to not scoff at it.

Some savior should bring a healthy rain of Spideys to Main's dry, cracked lands.

yeah, theres a lot of good anime recently

Unrelated BUT, TakayaKi actually drew some smuts aside from this major work of that book cover. Some incest blackmail reverse-NTR or some shit, got like 6 separate chapters or so iirc. Good art, depressing story.

In another news, another PV graced my recommendation feed. Prima Doll, a story about fighter-automatas in a post-war setting, trying to integrate into the now-peaceful society by working in cafes. And of course, the androids has got to be feminine-looking to maximize the show's marketability.

2022 is PACKED.

i'll need to look that up wtf

>>461 Which one?

>>460>>461 I just looked it up, turns out that I mistook TakayaKi for Takei Ooki to be the author of that fucked up story. Though, both are still artists with 100+ entries in the funny winged-N-letter site. lol

And the comment section seemed to be cheering on the little sister for sabotaging her brother's relationship, some sigma grindset that they believed-in or something.

well, the doujin, but the pv too

Watched Owl House. Fantastic show. Really loved the dark humor and all of the characters. Really hyped for s3, but from what I've heard there's some fuckery going on with Disney which is causing issues.

Marathoned Horimiya, it was going great until episode 6 or so, then the show took a sharp turn into becoming a slice of life show. The difference is jarring, I'm not kidding when I say I forced myself to go all the way to episode 11. Now that I think about it, I don't think I had any idea why I did it in the first place.

People always laments about how it would make them the happiest if there was a slice-of-life continuation/after-story of the critically great story with overarching plot that they loved so much. But I think I've now understood why artists nor writers deliberately leave masterpieces alone with its ending.

They crafted it well, wrapped it up nicely. Didn't want to lengthen it out further and potentially ruining the legacy of it.

They said the source material is better though, maybe I should look that up.

eh, horimiya source material is exactly the same issue. has drama build up then... slice of life for 1000 years

>>467 Fuck me, so nothing is going to save me from this whirlpool of hanging emotions.

And it has the overall score of 8.35/10 in MAL, I'm actually kinda upset about it.

Now I gotta look for something to tie these loose ends in muh heart, I'm looking into Araburu Kisetsu, Hanasaku Iroha, Yagate Kimi ni Naru, and Bokutachi no Remake.

HanaIroha had the highest rating on MAL among all above, sitting on a comfortable 8.01/10 so I'm going into it blind. Then again, that number is still lower than Horimiya's rating, so I don't know anymore man. Can't trust the numbers...

>>466 >>467 >>468 Got dam, everyone is pounding slice-of-life over here. I live for that shit. Did get bored of Horimiya, tho.

i mean, i dont mind slice of life, but horimiya changed way too suddenly.

also, "I live for that shit"

literal next sentence

"got bored of horimiya"

>>469 (zz) I wouldn't if they didn't set such high expectation in the first place. They had a stellar premise, but then half-assing it. Plot-driven to slice-of-life is too abrupt of a change IMO, they should've just went with slice of life from the very beginning, then make the prequel (first 6 episode) a separate series entirely detached from the main slice of life series.

This is from a guy who faithfully followed the adaptation of Senryu Shoujo to its final week, I'm a sucker for wholesome slice of life series.

Btw, Hanasaku Iroha is great. Rough at the start, but enjoyable all throughout.

Hanasaku Iroha is PACKED. A must watch. An experience, a great one at that.

Think I'm gonna sleep early tonight, been staying up late since two nights before to marathon this and Horimiya.

And, 2011 is now more than a decade ago... Holy fucking shit...

>>470 Living for it unfortunately doesn't change my attention span. ;-; Horimiya's hardly special in that regard.

>>471 I think I get it, but I'm not sure how much better those changes would really pan out.

>>473 (zez) True, you'd probably already lose some potential fans from the get-go by just changing the foundational premise. Its easy to complain, but its hard to find a way to actually address them complains. Just like complaining about BBS being dead.

Northern Overture event from Azur Lane is going to have a rerun, in particular the event that revolves around my favorite in-game faction. It's also going to have some new characters available in the gacha's pool during the limited time event, and boy I kinda want to get them. That, in spite of me having not played for almost a year, I'm still attached to those jpegs all the same as I did during the height of my addiction.

I won't return though, I don't think I have that kind of time nor emotional investment anymore. I think I'm just gonna watch from the side, admiring the view.

Still feeling empty from finishing Hanasaku Iroha, Yunosagi's Kissui Inn really grew on me in just 26 episode and a movie. Bore a hole through my heart and left it as is, as empty as it is.

phyllis in honkai kinda cool

I figured, “I should pop back in here, I haven’t visited the bbs in a while...” and. Well. It looks like I missed a lot of stuff on main lmao
Also, in a similar vein, how long has it been since actual news was posted in news?

https://dollars-bbs.org/missions/res/1645028754.html
Perfect example of the current situation, where everything just ends up dissolving into “let’s make a change” “yeah let’s” “it’s time to show the world who the dollars are” lol

(tsunami of responses coming up)

>>448 (Firion) Not sure if my input is still needed, but I played through the ppt game and it was pretty fun, I would play a full version if there ever is one. Apart from a few graphics oopsies (i.e. text being cut off on the tutorial slide), I found the second stage to be miles easier than the first, so if you intended the second stage to be more difficult, then maybe review the level designs? But yeah overall it was pretty good. (Also I concur with >>449 in that the game reminds me of those ‘World’s Hardest Game’ and ‘Scary Maze’ type games)

>>455 (zengat) Reading through the main board stuff thoroughly amused me, in a blowing-air-out-my-nose way. At this point I’m debating whether or not I should just copy/paste the missions from the dollars discord server and post it on here to give people actual missions to do.

>>457 (Firion) BAHAHA that is a *perfect* description

>>472 (Firion again lol) Huh, good to know. Hanasaku Iroha is now on my to-watch list. Also, 2011 being a decade ago suddenly made me realize just how old this site is-

>>476 oops html typo let's try that again https://dollars-bbs.org/missions/res/1645028754.html

>>477 (cxvz) You did it this time!

It's been a minute, but I finally decided to start working on my ceiling again.
I made a mistake in one of the corners that'll I have to fix later.

>>476 (cx) Let us all high five in full excitement as we acknowledge the existence of our huge potential, while knowing close to nothing about the things we shall do to live up to that potential.

>>477 Second stage is needlessly complicated and infuriating to the newbies, I was thinking of removing it entirely and avoid making that kind of level ever again. People who were sharp in their cursor control wouldn't have any problems with it, probably even thought it was an intermezzo kinda level. But for the slower people, it will be a nightmare to match the timing and rhythm to cross the bridges.

And I'm coining the term puzzle-platforming-cursor-game, lmao.

Hanasaku Iroha was released in 2011, and damn that's old. Durarara is even older, which I kinda forgot over time due to how frequent I checked this site. 2010, this site is about to be 12 years old. 19 June is upon us bros, wack.

>>479 (nya) Wasn't it yellow and black earlier? Instead of blue and white? Or am I misremembering?

I have never heard of a strudel before today.

>>479 (Nyanka) Looks cool. I'm assuming the black is supposed to be a... river? Uh, when I think about it, that doesn't sound too right.

>>479 (Nyanka) I always wondered what the black thing was in starry night

This year's winter anime list feels a bit like last year's

>>479 (Nyanka) Woah looks cool so far, reading the previous RTT I'm assuming that the corner that's not in the photo is the 'night' side?

>>481 (Nzpieface) Choose your first strudel wisely. If they're good, they're delicious- but if they're bad, they're terrible. Or at least that's been my experience

I like having the lights off and just spending time in darkness. People always think that this means I have depression. I do not, in fact, have depression. I simply enjoy the dark.

Oh yeah also happy Twosday 2022/02/22 everyone

>>484 Twosday is perhaps the greatest alignment of numbers and days to ever happen.

>>479 (Nyonkeroos) Anyone else see Eldritch Squidward?

>>485 (Hooperon) All same numbers is always better, ex.: 1111/11/11 11:11:11.

>>486 I didn't see that, but now that you say it, I can.

>>485 (Firion) We'll see 22/2/2222 in 200 years.

>>488 BUT WILL IT LAND ON TUESDAY

>>489 (Firion) Nope, Friday.

OSUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

Today is not a good day for Ukrainian Rushia fans. I can't really believe a country is really doing a full this day and age.

Meant to say full invasion

a terrific coincidence indeed, also >>498>>499 failed.

From what I hear, BBSIdle has already had its first victim. And then I also now need to post in the RTT more often, as well, rather than just like once a week when something interesting happens.

wait so you're the first victim?

As a toaster gamer for most of my life, I get a bit shocked when people complain about 30 FPS

Well I guess it more about getting bang for the buck if you have high specs, but still, that’s the HD experience for me with medium graphics and no shadows

>>519 On this monitor with a refresh rate of 120, I can't tell the difference between 30 FPS and anything higher. My eyes just don't work that fast.

>>519 It's the bit wars all over again. These hardware companies are selling a sense of superiority. While I enjoy 60fps, I'm no snob when it comes to just getting shiz running.

>>519 (Boopwrang) Welcome to the modern age?

I can generally tell when my display is running at 60 or 240. The worst thing is framerates that fluctuate too much: that hurts my eyes and brain simultaneously.

I generally think trope-y animes are bad because I know I'm gonna get bored or pissed. Tt's insanely refreshing and satisfying when that doesn't happen.

Man, I really want to play old Yorick again, but big doubt they ever do an old champion game mode. I need a champion that heals for 700+ from a single ranged ability cast with 2 items, deals 4k+ pre-mitigation damage in under 2 seconds with said items, and can go tank items after those two items.

Cute butt, but illegal, so rip that thread somewhat soon.

There was that naked young lady thread earlier, he referred to the butt in the image as cute. Just that really.

The Dollars WCGrid team turns 10 which is dope because they're doing a fucking two-month long hiatus. *confetti*

People underestimate big numbers, which is hardly a surprise since they appear so often in our lives. And I had a shower thought about it earlier, here's what I found.

Sunlight, took about 8 minutes to reach earth. To put into perspective, light speed can encircle earth's equator SEVEN TIMES in ONE SECOND.

Now think about the longest road trip you ever took, and realize just how minuscule the distance that took in comparison to the entire size of earth. Then imagine how much longer would it took if you travel that amount just by foot, then it'll kinda start sink on you just how huge our world really is.

Thinking about making a loli hentai game after I add the next feature to BBSIdle. Don't think I'd come back to add more after the next feature.

>>540 Will it be another idle game? Heh.

Come to think of it, there's never a zero percent chance that some member actually coerced Reltair through email to change the QR code image on the right sidebar to the Brave browser ad.

wait what qr code image

>>541 Nah. It'll be kinda similar to Degrees of Lewdity, but I think different enough to deserve its own game.

If any of you thought picrew was cringe like I did before, you just gotta try it to understand its appeal.

Also, my perfect anime girl xP not sure if that's just sad or what.

I disappeared for a bit. But hey, my background check got all cleared up. There was a delay with laptop shipment, so my start date got pushed back a week, but I started this week! Going through the onboarding process and it's going well so far. There's some team shuffling going on, so I'm getting placed on a different team on Monday, which puts a pause in my onboarding process for today, since I've already done all the non-team related stuff.

In other thoughts, I wish I knew what products to use for my hair. It curls so nicely sometimes, but other times it looks like a mess. Spent too many years mistreating my hair and trying to keep it straight... I just don't know how to properly care for it. I at least stopped brushing when it's dry, cause that's apparently awful for curls.

>>554 (Firion) I feel like it's been getting better over the years.

So I've had this sewing machine for about a year and yesterday I finally sat down and spent about an hour trying to figure out how to operate it. I'm hoping to eventually start making my own clothes. I just really like watching other people sew clothes (specifically Bernadette Banner) and I just think it's so cool having the capabilities to tailor clothes to your own desires (like giant pockets in dresses) and not being limited to whatever is being sold at stores.

Also I did the Pokemon Go John Tour last week which was really fun. Busy but fun. I got 11 shinies and my sis got 5 lol.

Also also went to see Uncharted a couple days ago and that was such a fun movie. Tom Holland is such a delight and his pairing with Mark Wahlberg was surprisingly good. They played off of each other pretty well and made the movie more fun because of it. The action sequences were also super cool. I hope they do a second movie soon.

>>552 (Name) Lol
>>555 (Keith) Nice

Huh, there's an Uncharted movie? Huh. Makes me wonder if they'll make a new game for it later.

Most recent project has the ability to save and load, as well as the entire opening scene done. At any individual point in time, it might not be playable because I don't have a separation between the release and dev versions yet, but it exists I will separate the two when I get the very basics of the main gameplay loop completed. Link in the project log's OP link for the zero people that will want to play it.

>>558 Not Nathan Fillion. >:( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v5CZQpqF_74

>>554 (Fuo Ran) How do I use this, I can't speak Jippon.

>>555 (Keet) Good luck! Curls sound like utter hell. I'm pretty certain there's no sure-fire way to keep them under control. Reference: my dad still struggling with his comparably softer curls after many decades.

>>557 (nya) Yesterday when I read this for the first time, I thought it was Name's post, so I was a bit surprised when I reached the part where you're intending to sew your own clothes. Which tbh sounds quite like him, although not quite the usual gear he's in. Then it progressively gets even crazier as Name actually talks about going out on a public gathering, before closing it in on the most out-of-character behavior I knew up to this point, mentioning actor/celebrity's name in a post.

That's one of the few things I will never expect Name to type down and hit send, EVER. Then I read the sender, and mystery is solved.

>>561 (zen) You just hai-hai the fuck out of it until it brings you the character creation UI.

Currently following close the weekly release schedule of My Dress Up Darling and Attack on Titan, wack.

>>563 (Firion) I don't think click until it works is a good method.

Uni is annoying.

>>564 (nz) Well too bad, this sign can't stop me since I can't read.

Hadn't ever watched Classroom of The Elite, but S2 has been announced which is wack.

>>565 WAIT NO SHIT, THEY'RE ANNOUNCING SEASON 2 AND, AND, SEASON 3 ALL IN-ADVANCE.

THEY'RE NOT GOING TO WAIT TO SEE HOW THE SECOND SEASON FARES OUT ON THE MARKET, THEY'RE GOING STRAIGHT TO ACQUIRING BOTH ADAPTATION PROJECTS.

HAS THAT EVER HAPPENED IN THE ENTIRE INDUSTRY'S HISTORY BEFORE? Shit, maybe I should catch up to the hype train before they arrived.

>>566 (Firion) Yeah, Symphogear. Though that's an original.

>>566 (Firi)
Wait til the third season turns crap since they didn’t get enough return in the second season.
Platinum End this season is a good example of an overzealous project turning to shit.

Held my baby for 6 hours yesterday. Having my arm hold 12 pounds in one spot for so long made it hurt really bad; and, she likes being on her belly, facing whoever's holding her, so I held her up with my hand a bunch because my arm is not long enough to hold her in that position without our heads trying to occupy the same space. Also, I hadn't slept for 22 hours by the time I let her mom take her and we left.

I was 100% fine, ready to go another 3 days if I was allowed. When her mom took her, I just turned into a puddle. My left arm hurt real bad, my hand could barely hold my cup, and I got super sleepy. It was like a switch was flipped.

:thunk:

6hrs is a long ass time bro

What even is this thread

>>571 The most active place on the site since its first thread years ago. Anything and everything that doesn't deserve its own thread is talked about here. Or just thrown to the wind with the promise that at least one person will eventually read it. Maybe even respond.

>>572 Why can’t people just make their own threads detailing their thoughts? It would be a lot more easier to document their thoughts if people did that.

>>573 (Jodisan) I don't think people care to document their thoughts.

>>573 People used to try doing that. The threads got closed. After permasaging got introduced, that became the default response. Occasionally, the threads also wouldn't get deleted, so there's a decent number of threads in the archive that are threads no one can meaningfully respond to and no one will ever look at.

>>571 (Jod) Basically a slow chatroom, more like a publicly visible email chain if I gotta say. And without notifs, so you gotta check on it periodically. If you care what the regularly appearing members are posting, that is.

>>573 If you want to do that, go make a private blog or a social media account where you can scream your texts into the void. I'm here because I cherished the friends I've come to know so much about, and I will keep coming back to stay in contact with them.

"People come together and a community support itself." -Ayanavi

Man, I really like that quote by Navi.

>>573 (Jodi) Only 10 threads can occupy the board's visible space at any given time. If everyone had their own thread they would be constantly dropped off the board and people would have to use the View All Threads to find it which is a bit of a hassle. It's easier to just have it all in one thread that we share so it's constantly visible. And that leaves room for other threads to be visible too.

Power went out for 16 minutes. Fun time.

Hm, does sound fun.

It's a weird feeling to realize that I'm the only person who has read the things that I have.

I had a really cool idea for a 2-3 chapter thing for the story, but I don't know if I'm capable of writing it.

>>580 (face) Even weirder that exactly only you stored the memories of what you've read in the exact way you remember it, and we hadn't even talked about things like perception.

>>581 (lupzero) Make a draft, lock it in the attic for 6 months, revisit the idea with a fresh mind.

Lil meme I found that doesn't fit lolthread.

The RTT is pretty much part of my daily routine. If I do nothing else """productive""" that day, I at least check the RTT. If I haven't checked here I'm probably still in bed, depressed, or dead. XD

>>576 (chpl) Yeah, this is a lot like those publicized mailing lists. The kind linux/unix devs always link that are on some random domain in raw text form.

I've been enjoying Takopi's Original Sin. Man, this manga is bleak.

Got 2 pictures of my baby~~ One really big one that doesn't fit anywhere very well and one small one that I have attached to thr top of my screen

6 episodes into Steins Gate, this show is frickin' amazing.

>>586 And, I can somehow feel this will end with MC losing everyone he loves. Hadn't read spoilers ever, tried not to since they say its a really damn good series quite long ago.

In other news, Before I Wake is more of a family drama story than a horror movie. Its a good twist, turning the genre on its head and giving viewers a unique flavor compared to the typical horror blockbusters.

>>587 I forget exactly when, but when the slap happens in either the last episode or second to last episode, pause and go watch season 2 before finishing season 1.

>>586 (Firi) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9wK381R3pBo

boop

no u

how could you do that to me, I'm horrified

I have nothing to say or share, my life is uneventful but I just wanna show my presence. That's all.

Hi guys

welcome to see you here

Oh, wow. Just learned Daft Punk broke up. They're one of the very few musicians that I have any brand recognition for.

>>593 (rosuke) Daily occurrences might just be as eventful as it can get. You'd be surprised just how nostalgic that one ordinary day you just felt like writing down for the diary log a very long time ago can feel when you read it again a long time after, it makes it all the more interesting because it is a particularly uneventful ordinary day you didn't even remember, yet it happened and you lived through it.

And the effect is actually stronger when you're not the kind of person to usually write a daily diary log. Just that particular one you felt like writing down some random afternoon 6 years ago, it makes it all the more special just how you'll never get to read more than what you've wrote. How much moments you've taken for granted, how much it'll all just be tossed away from your brain as 'memory noises'.

As the Youtube comment states,
"Working to preserve the details of a person's life makes it all the more apparent how much will just... slip away."

And it couldn't be further more than the truth.

I think I've shared this before, but there's a new part.

>>597 pretty rad

>>595 That was a huge rip. Soul died for a moment learning that. Another random thing I assumed immortal proved mortality. Time to clone them and get the band back together.

>>597 Damn, megarad.

Name told me about another DOLLARS site, has a forum, chat and everything. Apparently the chat was once like our very own DHR, sticking as exactly as manageable to the one in DRRR, but over the course of some downtime, updates, and sub-domain name changes, it became quite the interesting little shadow of its former self.

http://chat.drrr-dollars.net/

I let my mind run a bit to ponder about Dollars and of course, it quickly went mad.

So much needed to be said, yet not enough people listening.

Actually nah, I just couldn't care less anymore. Doesn't have anything to do with how many people are listening, scratch that off.

pretty much, yeah? who cares how many people listen. say what you want to say.

>>603 Just let the words fall out

Finally. Allorigins is finally back up, I missed all the stuff I have enabled through master script.

I called the cops on my mother, and she's still not in prison.

Matsuda is also still trying to kill me.
And is stalking me.

Matsuda...
Hi.

Quit trying to steal my husband from me.
He's not interested in you.

You keep trying to murder his true love and soulmate.
Me.
And you keep abusing him and trying to murder and rape him, too.
Just like you've been doing to me.

This new person feels so mentally nonexistent.

kinda schizo but whatever. welcome to the club?

>>608 (Nombr) Fucking destroyed, lmao.

>>609 (Pie) Badass response. Welcome to the club, hahahahahahaha.

I want to cuddle tiny lolis

I wanna dan

I really wish I could shoot bullets through time to shoot every single person who ever even had the thought of making a smartphone larger than an iPhone 4. Then I'd do the same for every single person who thought of changing the UI in iOS 7 away from the look of iOS 6.

I miss when smartphones were designed for human hands and human eyeballs, rather that gorilla hands and alien eyeballs. Seriously, I have long fingers and cant't reach the top of the screen on modern smartphones. No sane human would look at the iPhone 4 next to the iPhone 13 and say the 13 was the better designed one.

iOS 6 was the last iOS version to be made for humans, as well. What maniac would actually want to look at the unfinished UI of iOS 7 and higher? It's like they started to redesign the UI and just forgot to actually do anything beyond open a new image with the correct dimensions. iOS 6 actually looked like a human came along and used their hands to touch a computer for more than a single button press.

Someone get me a gun with a time portal. I have so many people to murder in cold blood.

If you paid someone to make art, and it looks like something I could make, you need to get your money back. At gun point, if need be.

>>612 (Gat) Who is what dan is?

>>613 (Namu) From my standpoint, it just feels like the size of digital screens expanded as I grew up. So from young age, everything always felt huge for me. Every time I got new gadgets, its always bigger than the last one I got. Even our TV, because we always bought something larger than our last one, so my head had always felt like its 1/5 size of the screen, CRT feels like wide-screened LCD TV when I was little. Now, we got an actual LCD TV. So for me, it doesn't feel like anything changed at all. It felt like my hands are always too small to use phones or notebook laptops, so I'm used to using them whole. The ratio of my child body and my notebook wasn't too different with my current body and my ROG laptop.

Must've suck for people outside those range of development.

ah

Got to be with my baby for almost 4 hours.

She barfed while sleeping on me, woke up while I changed her onzie, barfed on a blanket I put between us so she wouldn't have to lay on the spot she barfed, and was awake for like 20-30 minutes before she decided to aggressively cry. Had no idea what was wrong, wouldn't take a binky, didn't need her diaper changed, and giving her a bath only calmed her down for a few minutes before it was back to loud crying.

I noticed she calmed down while I was walking between locations, so I walked around with her for a bit. Apparently, she just wanted something to watch, so I turned on Monsters Inc..

https://www.pixiv.net/en/artworks/77032574

ISTG THIS GUY JUST STARTED BY DRAWING THE GIRL, THE PUDDLE, AND THE TREES, THEN HE DECIDED IT WASN'T GOOD ENOUGH AND SOMEHOW RESIZING EVERYTHING ACTUALLY MAKES IT CRAP SO HE JUST DECIDES TO DRAW THE REST OF THE ENTIRE THING IN THAT RESOLUTION. I'M CALLING IT NOW, JUST LOOK AT THE SIZE OF THAT BEAST.

Isn't that the artists' usual canvas size?

>>620 (pp) No, I believe I saw his other work had a much lower resolution.

That is... if my memories didn't fail me. Anyways, gorgeous piece.

>>621 (Firion) I checked the next work the artist posted. Same resolution, so...

Went and babysat my niece. She was great for like 30 minutes, then she cried for almost the rest of the almost 2 hours I was there. I tried everything I could think of to calm her down. Walking around, binky, bath, diaper change, laying her on her belly and back, sitting her up, standing her up, massaging her entire body, moving closer to the TV because maybe she wanted a larger portion of her eyes to be stimulated, taking her to the basement because it seemed like she wouldn't have been down there much (so the new sights might be what she wanted,) patting her back to try to help with gas. Nothing worked.

She started crying around when Eve was opened and there was no plant in Wall-E. Cried all the way until just a little after the credits started. Around when they left for earth, I just laid down on the couch and cried with her.

i have a sense of deja vu reading name's babysitting experience

Lifesized Gura statue for auction soonish. I want it, but have no money ;-;

>>624 >>625 That is so clearly what happened. Fucking fantastic work, hahahahahahahaha.

Day 3 wifi is still dead, I am really upset.

Babysat today, as well. She slept almost the whole time, only waking up to notify me of her being hungry, then eating.

>>631 (Fu-Ron) Rip wifey.

>>632 This just makes me imagine the kid opening their mouth and producing a "puriring"-type sound until you feed them. Nokia KidTM

>>633 Nah, it's more of a "ngeh," followed by accepting an offered binky.

Welp, accidentally clicked on close all tabs on safari again, in incognito too. Think I’ll just start bookmarking everything

Or just not hoard tabs

>>635 Tab snapshots would be coo. A quicksave of all the tabs you currently have open.

>>636 (Boopwrong) This is not an option.

>>637 (MindFuck) Aye.

>>637 (FindMuck) I think this is why Firefox has a "bookmark all open tabs" thing.

Attack on Titan is actually getting wrapped up this year, that's insane when you really think about it. The ending song is also great, really shakes the heart.

Hoopla come back, I need help writing the Dollars Radio description and title before we go live. Git intarnet gudder.

I have fallen victim to BBSIdle and posted on a non-Random board.

>>642 Lezgo, time to scavenger-hunt for the post. First to post screenshot to RTT wins my foot in their ass.

It's official. My baby gets mommy sick. Cried almost the whole ~45 minutes I was there, stopped the instant she laid eyes on my sister.

i didnt fucking know that vtubers were allowed to make r18 twitter accounts

>>644 (Namu) you haven't brainwashed her enough.

>>645 (Poe) and... why did you assumed so?

>>646 (Firion) Have you seen Ryugu's new account?

>>647 (face) I haven't, but please attach link.

>>648 (Firion) It's literally linked from her main twitter account.

>>649 I mean, who's her in the first place? I hadn't caught the latest news.

>>649 (p) Nvm, but you should've mention it as Finana.

Also, its allowed I guess? If it has existed for more than a while, then so be it. Niji is more lax on that department I suppose.

I'm more than a decade late, but I finally am binging Nolan's The Dark Knight trilogy. Its amazing, how the movie never lets go of my attention. And I'm actually watching it blind, which only serves to elevate the experience even more.

Also, its amazing how many one-liner quotes of pop culture references are originated from this series.

>>652 (Braveyoff) Pretty fun watch. Gotta be some of my favorite Batman-related, well, anything honestly.

>>651 (Firion) It started existing literally from two days ago. She had like 60 retweets of NSFW from that account in one day.

Unlimited power.

Disney Pixar's Soul is a breathtaking experience.

I'm still traumatized by car washing in public places, what a horrifying first impression that one made.

So mum forced me to go with her, and she wouldn't let me wash it on my own. Rip

The loud booming and shashasha-ing is the worst part about committing shiny on car.

oh

I want to every tiny loli

Let's go, lost 2 followers by posting a new chapter.

My dress up darling wrapped up, damn.

>>661 (Name) RIP.

Fun times.

I'm tired.
I told my boss to stop scheduling me on Sundays and Mondays.
Two jobs is very exhausting.

>>652 (Firi) It is probably the best batman movies. The earlier movies are all very kidsy and were clearly inspired by the goofier side of comic books and the newer ones are very serious and dark and not that much fun. I haven't seen the newest Batman movie though, but from trailers alone it looks pretty dark and gritty. Nolan's the only one who really managed to balance both sides of the comic books. EVEN THOUGH it always bothered me that all of the movies treat Batman like he's just a jock running around in a suit with a bunch of expensive tech in other words his only super power is his money. In the comics Batman is a genius, he's supposed to be the greatest detective in the world and that's never shown in the movie.

>>644 (Name) You just gotta bribe her with candies.

>>665 She's too young for applesauce, let alone candy.

Thought of an old video, saw it in 6th or 7th grade, so 2010 at the latest. It's Peach, Bowser, and Mario singing in Japanese to the Mario World theme, animated. Found it on page 2 of Google while splitting my attention between typing this and searching for it. Was going to call for assistance finding it, but no need, anymore.

>>665 (nyan) So... Iron man but DC?

>>668 (Firi) I guess... But those are different types of smarts. Iron Man is like a computer/tech engineer genius. He builds and invents things. Batman is more like Sherlock Holmes in that he's just very smart and can deduce things and solve crimes.

Gonna get some lawn work done this week. I wish it wasn't so windy though or else I'd try to burn some more wood and branches from the trees and bushes being cut down.

Also trailer for Heartstopper looks super cute. And Netflix dropped a trailer for Russian doll s2? Russian doll s2 has been in the works for years, I honestly thought that the project had been scrapped. Still waiting to hear anything about Lupin s3 though.

I also finally finished Gravity Falls last week. Such a good show with a sweet ending. I started watching that show back in high school, but I just never got around to finishing it. Rewatching all of s1 though and finishing s2 was such a great trip. I wish more cartoons were like Gravity Falls in that they never tried to turn it into a money grabbing franchise. They had a story, they told it, and then they ended the show. Fantastic. I hate shows that run on for years and years with nothing really happening in them.

the best thing to happen to me recently was that the oven was fixed. that shit was broken for like half a year

I want to tiny lolis

Tornado passed a few miles south of us while we sat at my grandma's (because she has a basement,) if my aunt's neighbor is to be believed. Storm's gone now.

>>662 (herp) RIP, was good shit.

Sleepy baby on my belly in my bed

>>673 Now waiting for the next season's release, I believe next week they'll start airing? Can't wait for Kaguya and Shikimori.

Made a very short rhythm puzzle game (only had one and a half of level), try it if you want I guess.

>>675 (firn) I need to acquire PP 2016, huh.

Hoopers should post video walk-throughs of PP games.

>>676 (tangze) Yeah, I should really get to making them. Been meaning to, just haven't for some reason (read:lazy).

Also, the project is called Picture Plates, PP. Not made in 2016, 2022. Yes.

/r/place is back

>>678 (zienace) Oh, isn't that the anonymous pixel art thing?

My baby is very good at making herself angry. She hates being without a binky, but any time she stretches, she throws it out of her mouth. I then have like 4 seconds to get it and put it back in before she gets angry.

>>680 I mean... That's how they work..?

^

>>679 (Firion) Not anonymous, but yeah.

I've been watching Nijisanji recently.

THEY ANNOUNCED MASAMUNE S2 DUDE WHAT THE FUCK
THEY ANNOUNCED SHIELD HERO S2 DUDE WHAT THE FUCK
THEY ANNOUNCED DATE A LIVE S4 DUDE WHAT THE FUCK
THEY ANNOUNCED SAO PROGRESSIVE THE MOVIE SEQUEL DUDE WHAT THE FUCK
AND I JUST REMEMBER CHAINSAW MAN IS COMING THIS YEAR TOO, WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCKING FUCK

Just a bit, I'm hoping for a new Haruhi adaptation since so many great series are making a comeback this year.

apart from csm, none of those are shows I want to watch bruh

So I skipped out on work yesterday and watched Our Flag Means Death. Absolutely fantastic show. I don't normally go for comedy unless it's a cartoon/kid's show because adult comedy is usually kinda gross. But OFMD really hit the nail on the head here. It's perfectly gory, kinda stupid, and very gay. I can't wait to see what they do for season 2 cause season 1 ended with everything being fucked up and I just really want my pirate husbands to get back together. T^T)9

>>684 (face lands on a pie) Well, sorry for having such a bad taste.

I'm sorry, I didn't put that quite right.
I Feel Sorry For You For Having Such A Bad Taste, Ha.

I have gender issues and I feel like I have no refuge to share my thoughts anywhere else. I think that by any other person's metric I'd be considered trans, but not my own, and I dont know what to feel about that. like, I want to wear skirts and be seen as pretty and valuable like women are, and I wear makeup and think of myself in ways stereotypically associated with women. Hell, I want to go on HRT to get boobs, but what I dont want is a vagina. in my eyes gender and sex are one and the same. Men have penis and women have vagina. AND the stereotypes associated with them are meaningless. I judge people based on how they act, not based on their body (unless I'm trying to fuck them.) the kind of people who separate gender and sex seem to look at stereotypes and gender ROLES that we should be aiming to get rid of and call THAT gender. So while they'd probably look at me and call me a trans woman, I just see myself as a boy who wants to be feminine. I feel like I have a firm understanding on what I want to be, but the kind of people who view and categorize the world the way I do don't accept people like me, and the kind of people that would be fine with me being who I am would use labels and viewpoints to describe me that I'm adamantly against.

It also gets frustrating to me when it comes to stuff like HRT. I would not consider myself trans, and the way I see it, me wanting to go on HRT to get a feminine body is purely a cosmetic thing. As far as I'm concerned it's ALWAYS a cosmetic thing, because I don't draw a line between different types of body modding. But (other) trans people seem to talk about it like it's life-or-death, and I feel like if I go to a doctor and tell them the truth about my feelings, of wanting to be feminine and develop breasts, and to basically go through everything a 'trans' person who wouldn't get SRS (AKA not really trans, cause they still have their original parts, but you could probably figure my thoughts on that) would, but that it's NOT life-or-death for me, I just hate my body the same way a fat person often hates being fat, that they wouldn't take me seriously, and that the only way to get the body I want would be to lie and exaggerate.

I think I get it but I think I also don't. Well, I think it's fine as long as you have an understanding of yourself, which you say you do.

>>686 (Firion) I've watched read Masamune, hated the ending of the manga. I read all of Shield Hero, it's not a very good web novel. I watched Date a Live season 1, it wasn't very good. SAO is just something I want nothing to do with now.

>>687 (Naga) It's a spectrum dude. Not black and white.

>>687 (Nobu Nage) I've seen quite a few people who think in a similar way to you, so I'm sure you'll find someone who can directly relate eventually. Understanding yourself is really important, so that's great. As far as having to lie and exaggerate, it's not like they can un-feminine you if they find out, right? Lmfao, or maybe they can.

Man I wanna shmack my cat across the room, bastard chewed on my VR cord. Ended up just kissing him and petting him instead, though. Fuck.

I don't check this site often much anymore. I feel like my life has just became too busy, haha. In this past month alone, I've gone to a ren fair, a concert, a bar, and an arcade. And I have plans for this month as well, like celebrating mine and my brother's birthdays this weekend.
Work has been good too, adapting to the team and learning a lot. I'm enjoying it. :)
And since I get paid pretty well and my dad is generous enough to let me stay living here for cheap rent, I'm able to save up a bunch and I plan on saving up for a downpayment on a house plus 6 months worth of expenses so that I can move out in about 2 years. Younger me wouldn't believe I'd be able to own a house before I'm 30, but it definitely is possible as long as I'm responsible with my money. Sticking to a budget is helping me a lot.

I mean, I completely disagree with the whole sex and gender being the same thing, but I do agree with most of the rest. People should be able to present how they want without their gender being questioned. Men can be feminine and women can be masculine. It shouldn't matter. And people shouldn't be trying to force the trans label on you. If you say you aren't, you aren't, and they should respect that.
And if someone wants to be on HRT, as long as they are appropriately informed about all the risks and benefits and whatnot, why shouldn't they be able to? I personally wouldn't recommend a person who isn't trans go on HRT because it is possible that the changes could cause dysphoria, but hey, that's one of the risks. And if you're fine with that, none of my business.
I will say though that if you are seeing it as cosmetic for yourself, then it should be treated as such under insurance too. Cause it sure as hell isn't cosmetic for me, it's as necessary as somebody's antidepressants are for them. (Not like my insurance even covers my HRT at all, lol, but it did completely cover my top surgery.)
Gender aside, having hatred for your body is uh, not great, and I hope you can get that worked out.

Man, I wish we had thread deletor.

There's a bit of wonkiness with the bouncing physics when bouncing between two objects that are close together, and especially the shot guide line, but Bounce Knight is kinda sorta playable. Literally all you can do is bounce around, nothing else is even somewhat implemented yet.

>>693 (Firion) Be admin? Actually, how long is this site gonna be running for? I remember Reltair said the company that hosts site was gonna be doing this forever, but like...

>>695 (Pieface) He will keep at it until RTT loses all its invaluable members, at least that's what Aya thinks. There's not much point keeping it online anyways, if no one uses it anymore that is.

So hypothetically speaking, we are the only thing standing between BBS's existence and oblivion. And all the characteristic actually matches, because only this board, only this very thread gains a regular amount of replies. Everywhere else is a lost cause.

Damn...

Also, /r/place died. RIP.

>>691 You say the changes would CAUSE dysphoria? IDK what you're on about but it'd HELP for me. Like I said I would be considered a trans girl by alot of people and dysphoria is already a part of that.

I do gotta ask tho, if gender isn't your body, AND isn't how you act/look then what is it? A signifier without anything to signal is non-existent.

>I will say though that if you are seeing it as cosmetic for yourself, then it should be treated as such under insurance too.

It's cosmetic for EVERYONE, and that's how I see it for EVERYONE! I fucking hate my body, but there's fat people who hate their body too and insurance doesn't cover their gym memberships and liposuction, because liking your body isn't a medical necessity. If you live in your current body your entire life, as I would in mine, you will not run into any complications of the normal healthy function of your body.

>>693>>695 if the nonexistient admins and site owners allowed some sort of democratic thread-deletion (IE people upvote/downvote threads and after it gets enough downvotes it's deleted) that could be a way to get rid of those people posting links of literally just illegal porn, without making it so one person can troll-delete the RTT.

Rigorous self-fallacio does a body well, Frion. Good to see you partaking in that here.

>>697 Good, that's one subreddit down, thousands more to go.

>>698
>Self-falaccio
lmao ye

But about the upvote-downvote system, it'll require the admin to develop it from scratch, which he didn't want to. So rip.

I wasn't involved in it, but it was kinda neat to see people working together to make various artworks and flags. Kinda cute, if you don't think about the Amogus schlong that was a thing for a while.

>>698 (Naga)
Yes, the changes can possibly cause dysphoria in those without dysphoria. This has happened to people before. I wasn't referring to you specifically, just in general. It does confuse me a bit why you don't consider yourself trans though when, as you stated, you fit what it even means to be trans. Like, gender dysphoria is kinda the defining thing of what transgender is (although some "trans" people would say you don't need dysphoria to be trans, but I think that's complete bullshit). But that's all your business to decide, not mine.
I also never said it doesn't have to do with your body, because it's obviously a huge factor. I disagreed with it being boiled down to genitals only. There's so much involved and trans people can experience varying levels of dysphoria. And some aren't willing to or are unable to take certain risks in some aspects of transitioning. I, for instance, won't get bottom surgery cause as the technology stands now for FTM, it just isn't worth it for me since I can generally deal with it. If the technology improves, maybe I'll reconsider. I also have a big fear of surgery and I only got top surgery since the dysphoria from my chest was so bad that it outweighed my fear. There's also the huge hormonal factor and with hormones playing a big role in brain chemistry, it should be easy to understand why HRT is life changing. It's a combination of body and hormones that make it up, and the mismatch between that and your brain is what causes the dysphoria in the first place.
That's also why transition isn't a cosmetic thing and why it is considered medically necessary treatment in some cases. It has nothing to do with liking your body, it's more that your body is wrong. It's hard to explain the difference. But I know I myself never hated my body pre-transition. In fact, I think I was far more attractive prior. But it all felt wrong and when I looked in the mirror, the person I saw was a stranger to me. But now, I obviously still have insecurities about my body just like people who opt for cosmetic surgeries. But it actually feels like *my* body now instead of me piloting a stranger's.
And if we think of HRT as fixing a hormone imbalance rather than something cosmetic (which is essentially what it does, which is why it's important to stay on it even after your desired physical changes happen), then it's medical necessity becomes more obvious. I know for me, I haven't been having as much issues with fatigue as I did before. And as my levels are getting closer to my doctor's target area she set for me, the issues have been lessening.
We may not come to an agreement on this topic, but hopefully what I explained does make some sense and maybe it may even help you decide to go for it or something. Idk.

Oh god, that's a big block of text. I should have broken it up more. And do
more grammar checking, whoops. Sorry about that. I tend to ramble too much, my bad.

>>699 Updoot.

There, did it. Designed, think-tanked, crowd-tested, human-experimented, produced, distributed.

>>701 (KeicEpith) Ramble away, fren.

I honestly thought all of r/place was botting but seeing some proof that real people collaborated for a bunch of it was great.

yeah, people doing stuff is fun, though i do want to see a bot-only /r/place where the point is to see who can bot best.

Hacksaw Ridge is hell of a ride, and Andrew Garfield performed outstandingly.

>>704 (Firi) Never saw it lol. I'm not normally a fan of war movies or religious movies. But Garfield is a lovely actor.
Never been a Harry Potter fan, but I would totally watch The Marauder's if they ever made that into a franchise since Garfield is fancasted as Lupin... Honestly would be surprised if the Marauder's didn't get made into something after they're through with Fantastic Beasts.

>>698 >>700 tl;dr Sex is what your physical body is. Gender is what your brain thinks you are/should be. When the two aren't the same it causes dysphoria.

Birthday for both me and Dirt today. :)
She is now 1 and I am now 23.
