I’m hoping it heavily features Dan Cortese.
McD Tee Vee! I love this place!

I can’t wait for the fan fiction of this show!

Might be finally time to retire the “Afro Bart” tshirt I got in 1989.

what nobody remembers this revelation?

Its a good thing he had his car-driving hat on.

Here’s an older interview from back when Avatar came out talking about why he’d like to do higher framerates:

But basically with digital projectors and cameras the technology is there. You need to store more data and render more frames but there’s no reason it’s not doable. It’s mostly industry inertia, and that they’ve been focused on increasing the number of pixels projected, which at this point doesn’t provide much more benefit, instead of increasing framerate.
Also framerates really only matter for stereo 3D movies since the motion blur strobing at 24fps is much more noticeable in 3D and can give people headaches. For a normal movie a lot of people actually prefer 24fps since the strobing or judder is a big part of what we associate with the ‘film look’. It’s partly why tv looks different from film, for example. He’s right though that 60fps looks more like ‘real life’.. I once saw a test of a football game broadcast at 60fps and it looked much more realistic.

Usually when the internet tells me I need to add two inches to something, it is not talking about shoe inserts.

I think the downvotes are less about the content and more about the know-it-all wake-up-sheeple tone and attitude. Also that fact that fixating on Gabe’s minor misuse of the word anarchism because it is a philosophy you know a lot about is sort of beside the point of the post?

I would imagine that most videogummers generally have a leftist point of view and would agree that at its base government is about maintaining a monopoly on violence and controlling power relations etc etc. I think that’s kind of a given, and while pointing it out is useful, it doesn’t really get us anywhere. As people have mentioned, there’s no path from our society to a world with no personal property. And even if there was there would be so much upheaval in the process the majority of people would not fare very well.

It’s like if I had a realization that if people stopped caring about looks and talent I could be a movie star. That’s fine to think about and may be true, but it doesn’t really do me much good, and I’m not going to go on internet forums and hold forth on the monopoly of Hollywood by attractive people who are good at acting. Alright perhaps my metaphor is a bit weak there, but hopefully you see my point.

Mostly though it’s just that it’s a bit annoying to get all smarter-than-thou about people and Gabe not being fully up-to-speed on very niche and specialized political philosophies.

If you want to “start a venture” you clearly are corporatist scum. Down with ventures!

But seriously, I don’t think Gabe was necessarily equating Libertarianism with the specific politics of leftist Anarchism. He was just saying that in their mutual rejection of government, they are both stupid and naive worldviews.

Oh jeez, the bit at the end about how Make-a-Wish kids all know it’s the one thing they can do to make their parents happy, has just absolutely broken my heart here. No more heart for tizzdogg.

I don’t believe you.
