shitposters form only 20% of WATMM's population but are responsible for 90% of its shitposts.

i don't get your point. do you mean eassae left because of shitposters (such as myself)?

no lol, had more to do with some of his posts. dw about it, it's not worth getting into.

are we talking about the same person? 

anyway, using occam's razor i think i know why he left the forum. not the details of it but the general reason. and no, i don't think it's because he grew bored of it. 

btw, ceephax - wild westie was actually released in 2008. no one gives a shit but i do.

Sennheiser HD 280 Pro.  I'm actually wearing mine right now (listening to Richard Devine's Sort/Lave).

I am interested in finding electronical music acts that play with world building and creating their own mythologies (ideally fully-hatched worlds a la Drexciya or the full length stuff by Space Dimension Controller, but narrative isn't totally necessary - coherent thematic stuff like PCA is great too). none of my googling attempts are working. i obviously suck at describing this. help?

what do you suppose harvard university is trying to learn from this study?

I'm listening to one such artist at this moment, who you're no doubt already familiar with - Otto Von Schirach (album: Supermeng [finally... it's quite good]).

The KLF comes to mind, but they loaned heavily from the Illuminatus trilogy, Dr. Who, etc so it's not totally original.

Anyway

Someone should make a game that looks like the 80s game cover art and not like what the actual games looked like

F.e. a Pacman game that looks like its Atari cover art:

Or Arkanoid that looks like this

                                                                            i really like this idea:) i remember getting lost in my imagination from the cover art

                                                                   and if i was lucky enough to play the game

                                                                                  being disappointed at how it did not look like it promised

                                                                                                   until i got lost in the playing of the game

                                                               i'm around 50 points before i break outta this veteran chrysalis

                                                                                                             any tips on the decorum of a grand master

Garden of Delete

I rolled past a random unaccompanied doggo today right before I parked at home. Said doggo acknowledged my oncoming approach, then immediately did a spin and a squat on the grass as I passed.

observation: this watch

The level at which silicon valley people try to "tech" the whole world really annoys me. Like the big fad for a while now is that we live in a simulation. Even black holes are considered to be "a bug" in the simulation's "code". This gives me so much less hope for the future. We really are going to destroy our civilization. By hubris. You really can't get any lower than that.

Give it another four or five decades. Then it'll be SHODAN Valley.

You mean the System Shock stuff? Yeah, that's inevitable by now I guess.

I sometimes dwell on these things too much, but why is human kind so fascinated by horrible stuff, even though we know it's horrible, it's everywhere in popular culture almost like a dark dream slowly becoming reality... are we more like "I don't know what I'm doing and this is horrible but I can't stop" or it's more like "YESSS, bring it on BRAHAHAHA"
