Making new threads can be very difficult if you lack confidence or worry about whether your thread is "worth it". But, I think people mostly do it out of convenience for places like 4chan so they don't need to look around at all.

Maybe. It's probably a much bigger hurdle for streamers and phoneposters and those have sadly become far more common than they used to be. I have to put in some effort if I'm making a thread about a handheld or console game I'm playing, but anything anime or PC game-related is piss easy to just grab a screenshot that fits with whatever I want to discuss.

Most of the "thread within a thread" posts I see also have images attached, though, since they're statistically more likely to receive replies, so it's a compounding factor at best. The core issue is people bringing non-imageboard ideas about organization and discovery to imageboards. Embrace chaos, embrace reposts, embrace overlap. If it were up to me saying "there's already a thread up" would be a bannable offense.

How do I make good programming language benchmarks. No one has done any performance research on Godot's GDScript because the community says it's good enough. Any benchmarks only look at framerate in physics calcd and not GC impact or memory per object. Obviously that reasoning is not good enough.

Programming language benchmark? Measuring what? Programming seems so abstract and dependent on the programmer themselves that a benchmark seems strange to me. I'm not a programmer, though, so who knows?
Godot, huh. Isn't that a game engine? I hear it's been advancing along, but still has a fair way to go to compete with stuff like Unity and Unreal, but it has that indie-ish charm to it that those don't.

>>119221
Godot has a repo for benchmarks: https://github.com/godotengine/godot-benchmarks
There's a few in there specific to GDScript, such as memory allocation or string manipulation. I'd recommend looking into contributing your own benchmarks if you want to flesh it out, since stuff like dictionary manipulation or simple number crunching seems absent.

>How do I make good programming language benchmarks
The only real requirement for a benchmark is to be consistent between runs and to be able to highlight small differences in performance. You could design one for isolating a known weak point in a language's runtime, or one that can be compared to what someone in an actual use case might do. It just depends on what you're trying to measure.

>Any benchmarks only look at framerate in physics calcd and not GC impact or memory per object
The problem is there is no GC in GDScript like you would find in Python or JS. Objects are instead reference counted, so deallocation occurs as soon as no other object references it, rather than waiting for the GC to do a cycle. In essence, this means there are no random GC pauses to deal with, but you run the risk of creating a reference cycle that can't be automatically deallocated, or having objects deallocated at a bad time and causing a frame stutter.

I also suspect most game developers would rather spend time profiling their specific project than profiling the language itself, since there's always the option to drop down to C++/C# if needed.

A thread about phrases, buzzwords, and online discourse in general, because why not.
Which terms do you gravitate towards and which ones do you avoid? Do you think people has lost the ability to take lighthearted banter in stride?
Personally I try to write properly when the discussion is semi-serious, but get lax when funposting. For mainstream though it seems like using memespeak for post-ironic brownie points or ad-hominem attacks has been the norm for awhile. It gets tiring seeing the same lazy response over and over again. The rampant use of 'based/cringe' is a prime example.

I think that while the internet's affect on language is certainly there, it's also overblown in circles like ours, understandably given that we are on an imageboard. Most people communicate mostly with real life people who speak their own language and dialect and even when they communicate online they are still mostly using Facebook and such to speak to people of their own language. Imageboards are a very international and English dominated space and I think we take that for granted.

It's hard to reply to because you couldn't come up with any facts to refute it with or arguments to make in regards to the original debate so you had to resort to throwing around comparisons that add nothing in order to get the last word in since that lets you claim a victory of stubbornness. Personally, I think you could have more efficiently accomplished this with a simple "no u".

The debate proper started with this sentence:
>Wiping out dialects and lesser languages would make the world a better, more efficient place.
Some of the answers that came up as the debate progressed are:
1) If achieved, variation would kick in once more anyways because it's inherent to language. You can't set a permanent standard for millions to follow and expect that to function, much less for billions.
2) Exposure doesn't kill languages. It creates areal features, loans, and other phenomena, but the weaker ones only stop being totally spoken if there's power behind the shift.
3) Actively achieving global language standardization would require committing several crimes against humanity and create a dystopian world in the process.
I've listed plenty of examples to support this. Where are yours? You've reached the ridiculous, untenable conclusion that replacement is somehow natural and equal to inheritance. No one else would support this. And finally, let's go back to this other quote:
>There's a reason so many languages have gone the way of the dodo.
Dodos were killed until none remained.

You could also add 4) it wouldn't be efficient at all due to the associated cost.

What makes something look good? It's one of those things you see people talk about a lot, but I've never heard a satisfactory answer. Most theories of aesthetics boil down to some combination of "this looks good we should do more things that look like this" and "I like how this looks, you should too".

I don't want to be told what looks good; I already know what looks good because I have eyes. What I want to know is why the things I find visually appealing visually appealing. We know broad strokes what makes something sound or taste good, but why is our knowledge of what makes something look good (at least from where I stand) so primitive?

The way people on imageboards tend to talk about neuroplasticity is overly simplified and generally combined with the cynical crabs-in-a-bucket thing since people tend to be overly negative. It does weaken as an adult, but not to the degree that people thought decades ago. Will you learn a new language in your 70s as easily as you would if you were 6? No, but the same is true if you were in your 20s. What does change, however, is motivation and the amount of free time people may have.

>"time feels faster as you age" phenomenon is a thing

That's generally seen as a result of routine and the brain working on autopilot. I remember reading that one way you could remedy this is do make simple changes in daily actions, like changing the route you take when driving and so on. If you're doing things unconsciously then time feels like it's moving faster.

As for the musical tastes thing, I wonder if it's related to the way our personalities are pretty much locked in place by the time we hit 15 or so. Maybe musical taste is somehow influenced by this, but who knows?

Yeah, more and more it feels like a convenient excuse for tunnel-visioned people who can't stick to a hobby/skill. They should focus less on lacking a younger brain and more on maintaining a younger mindset, that stubborn drive that keeps you going even if the results are shit. Sure that's helped by being a kid with no real obligations, but I still believe most people have more free time than they think to learn something new.

Recently I've come across two different channels that seemingly popped outta nowhere and started putting out fairly specific and very high effort content at a pretty decent rate, which then went on to get hundreds of thousands of views. It's weird, so I wanted to share it:

Dogehammer Fortykay makes WarHam animations in the style of Madness Combat with the peculiarity that all humanoids are portrayed as a variation of doge, and they seem to have a pretty good grasp on the lore. Highly likely to have read at least some of the novels.
Mr. ぬ also makes animations, mainly centered around Zundamon but also featuring other synthesizers, consisting of absurd situations loaded with Jap memes. Their last video (>>112412) is a song that they wrote, drew, and edited by themselves. Their watermark is a black square, further adding to its oddity.

What motivates someone to straight up drop what they were doing, start from scratch with something so damn specific, and somehow still succeed in an environment where 99.99% of people are stuck with views well below 10k? The whole thing seems crazy to me.

What tales have your minds woven while you lie in slumber?

As for myself, I just had a dream in which I died. It started off with my father taking over a trip I planned out with a friend and making the experience somewhat uncomfortable. During said trip I uncovered a trait about them I hadn't known amd also apparently they had a medium sized youtube channel they'd mostly put behind them. Apparently it was discovered by a background check my father ran. Which is odd considering they were concealing themself within a black cloth the whole time. This did strike me as odd as the person in question doesn't really seem to care much. But, after that revelation I wad able to connect with their reasoning and appreciate them a bit more.

Then the dream shifted over to me and my family at the shore. We were going to enjoy the beach and also get some food first. I was looking at the donuts in a display case wondering why we weren't eating those but they insisted on going out to the downstairs breakfast bakery that I don't think would work in real life given that it'd be so easily flooded. But back on track, I'd decided to stay home and just sit in one of our trucks. Which is when another family showed up and started putting stuff in the house starting to treat it like they owned it. I told them to stop and that they didn't have any rental here at the time, but they didn't listen. The head of the house, some wicked lady I presume started to get really aggressive with me and yelling at me telling me to get lost. I was trying to tell her that my family owned the house when one of her relatives came after me and I defended myself with a wooden plank, bashing their skull. I don't quite remember the rest of the altercation but afterwards everyone was under the beds in the house and fairly injured. One of the younger children clearly had enough as she desperately reached for the shotgun besides her loaded it before firing it into the vicinity of the matriarch. Right after this she fired the second shot at her too. The matriarch keeled over and died as she asked her daughter how did she know she should've shot twice to make sure she finished the deed? The echo reverberated throughout the town and siblings/relatives of mine came to check on the situation.

I tried guiding them in or calling out to them however they mysteriously ignored me no matter how hard I tried to get their attention. I found out why soon enough as I saw my lifeless corpse on thPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

I had an incredibly strange dream/borderline nightmare today that I wanted to share. It's one of the oddest dreams I've ever had.

I'm in my house. I can't remember how the dream started but I know something is outside that is trying to harm me and trick me into opening the door. It's trying to bait me out by pretending to be a human. At first it pretended to be a family member and a couple of other things I can't remember. I do vividly remember the last thing it did though.

I look out of my back window and there is a paramedic standing there. But it's like a cardboard cutout of a person. It was talking to me but its eyes were all messed up and were looking in two directions at once. Then it went crossed eyed. A crude fake that even a child would see through. Then it slide away like someone was pulling it with a fishing line or something. Imagine a cardboard cutout of a person getting pulled with a string. That's what it looked like.

I decided I'd had enough of this game and I wasn't going to hide from it anymore. I think at this point in the dream I'd been locked inside for days without food and water or something.

I get a rifle and multiple magazines of ammo. Then I burst out of the front door rifle in hand to confront whatever has been doing this to me. There was nothing there. There weren't even animals. I looked around for awhile and decided this was not going to work so I returned to my house.

When I come back inside I go to put the rifle away in the gun safe. There is a woman I've never seen before standing naked in my bedroom. I can't remember her clearly now. I just remember that I was overcome with lust. I picked her up (she was tiny) and threw her on the bed. Then I started humping her like a jack rabbit. The last thing I remember is sucking on her neck while I'm exploding inside of her.

Wake up to soiled shorts. Strange because I shouldn't have had much seed to spill this morning (I'd fapped just before bed). I went to the bathroom to clean up still disturbed by this very odd dream.

I put on some clean underwear and returned to bed. I slept for several more hours. IT HAPPENED AGAIN. The exact same dream played on repeat with the exact same ending. I soiled my shorts again.

It really is amazing how well this show has turned out. The humor is extremely good and hits the right combination of old-style silliness that still perfects fits today. Someone said in another thread that it's a thread that makes them laugh out loud, and I feel the same way.
And the production values. Man, they're amazing. I still myself impressed looking at the animation, from Lum's electric antics to fantastical slapstick exaggeration.
If you're not watching this, you should remedy that. You don't need any knowledge of the original series.

(The story in this half-episode is that Ataru has a voodoo doll of Mendou on his chest but he's unaware of its powers)
Another example of the humor and great animation. This stuff is so good!
You're watching it, right? You are, right?

I am, I just don't have much to say about it. It's good and the hair is pretty but there's not much to say about comedies
Also, I've read some of the manga and the winner is revealed relatively quickly, so there's not much reason to ship

SEASON TWO, BABY!
I went with the [Pizza] release which is probably the best one when it comes to appearance and maybe subs? This one episode was... 2.7gb. Hard drives are a lot bigger these days and this will probably be the most colorful show of the season, but this still hurts.
The nyaa comment said they're aiming for Tuesday releases, which is about 5 days from the default Crunchy or whatever-derived ones.

Can anyone explain why I can read a vn for 10 hours but have trouble watching an hour of a tv show or a movie? Are the stories that much better?

There's still tons of old ones that lack an English translation though, so even if no new games are being made there will nevertheless be no shortage of 'new' releases for a long time to come.

you're retarded. That's why. TV shows and movies these days have the same plot as VN's but don't take 100+ hours of fluff talk and blueballing the reader just to get through the same plot points.

Yeah, and those patient enough to learn Japanese also have a bunch of PC98 and other stuff that will probably never get translated. Since these all take a long time to get through, VNs will have a lot of content available fore the foreseeable future.
OEVNs are also increasing in quality with stuff like that uhh, Slay the Princess and also that sibling cannibal one with Coffin in the name. (Technically RPGM but story-heavy) so maybe there will be a strange renaissance of English speakers embracing sincerity and real storytelling and filling in the gap. I'm skeptical, but it could happen. I'm just glad to see Western people make sincere attempts at VN/RPGM instead of irony stuff.

The other day I came across Go Nagai's adaptation of the Divine Comedy, and a lot of its illustrations struck me as rather un-manga-like. True enough, most of his large illustrations appear to be taken from Doré's art. It's a very interesting crossover.
The main change Nagai does is making characters more monstruous, you can see how he draws Charon here twice as tall as regular people and gives him blank eyes for further contrast, and to King Minos in the first circle he gives a pretty evil look with large teeth and all that.

Older art and stories are very minimalist in tone. Free of the bloat that make it harder to create compelling stories. Easy to appreciate across generations

Yeah I can only think of stuff like the Witch Craft Works album covers parodying Kraftwerk.

It's funny you'd say that about the Divine Comedy, because it is brings up over a millennium of history and myth. It's very hard to make sense of its mountain of references without any notes.
