@ankokukishi fuckin' skill issue
The following アノニマスの見解 services have been upgraded:
・Mitra is now v3.0
・PeerTube is now v6.2.0
Apparently PeerTube has added some kind of auto video transcription, but I've left it disabled. Probably because of my secret burning hatred for the deaf.
Lord Szaregon's death was so embarrassing and hilarious, I'm definitely clipping and uploading it.
The next streaming longplay game is going to be Morrowind, and if there are any must-install mods I should go with, I'd appreciate any advice. I already know I need OpenMW, of course.
@Economic_Hitman @LouisConde @Kerosene @BronzeAgeHogCranker From what I heard, it's the tranny Satanic Olympics, apparently
@Kerosene @LouisConde @BronzeAgeHogCranker You're not the only one. I saw something about the Aussie cycling team getting robbed, and my only takeaway was "oh, there's an Olympics on this year?"
I think nobody really noticed, or cared once they did.
ADDENDUM:
@greyarea Shadow wizards have bad taste and worse trigger discipline
:shadow_wizard: SHADOW WIZARD MONEY GANG
I'm mulling over whether or not to play with zap.stream , but I'll only do it if I can multicast alongside PeerTube. I had an nginx restreamer back in the day, but it spontaneously broke at some point and I'm not sure how to make it work again.
Zap does appear to have a stream forwarding function that could relay to PeerTube via RTMP but that would put them at the center... failures at ZapStream would knock PeerTube out too, and I don't like that.
@lina @coolboymew @moth_ball Disney Fact™: Pluto is fully sapient and capable of speech, and walking upright. He's just never allowed to; Mickey beats him to within an inch of his life if he's ever caught trying.
@moth_ball @coolboymew This is good, because otherwise the existence of her pet cat would raise some uncomfortable questions
@zemichi Everybody I know who praised the ScarJo live-action version kept talking about the visuals and the scene adaptation, but from what I read of the plot synopsis it took the nuanced world of the original and turned into an "I was working for the bad guys all along, let's take them down" type story.
@zemichi "vibes being off" is apt, something just didn't feel right
@greyarea if SAC_2045 is non-shit, do let me know. I may have judged it more harshly than it deserves
@Zoomerman88 fuck yes
@greyarea My main issues with Arise were sloppy characterization and the surface level nature of its "ripped from tomorrow's headlines" worldbuilding.
SAC & 2nd Gig understood that as cynical, bleak, and morally gray as the setting and characters are, there still has to be an emotional core to connect with the viewer on some level. Batou's crush on the Major and the Tachikoma's innocence (and self-sacrifice) served that role well.
In Arise, the Major is a conniving shrew who wheedles constantly for a bigger budget, only to get slapped down by Aramaki constantly. Saito went from "cool sniper" to "compulsive gambler and serial traitor". The main stakes at one point was to stop the release of secret files of Japan's war crimes to prevent other countries from demanding reparations. It was just cynicism without any redeeming qualities, and there were no characters I actually liked.
And in spite of all that, they had the gall to have the Section 9 team posture at the end as though their motivation for starting up was to stand against injustice and corruption when they'd shown zero moral center up to that point.
Add onto that the frequent namedropping of things like "Stuxnet Type Virus" and it just felt like the writers were trying too hard to sound modern and relevant without saying anything meaningful about those underlying ideas.
Cornelius also doesn't hold a candle to Origa or Yoko Kanno when it comes to the soundtrack. That's not really his fault, but it didn't help.
Most people probably don't care as much about this shit, but I just didn't care for how far Arise fell from the GitS tree. Maybe SAC_2045 is better written, idk. Ditching 2D animation for full CGI is a mark against it in my books, though, unless it's a cut above what I've seen from other series.
@DarkMahesvara muh heckin' fnuko paps!
@greyarea I never watched it. I tried to watch Arise back in '13 when it came out, and dropped it halfway. I'm convinced now that the original SAC and 2nd Gig were lightning in a bottle that can't be recaptured.
