The General Thread

I found a sleeping Luna Moth on my front doorstep and put it on my back porch for safety. I found out that they only live 7-10 days and are nocturnal so it was already rare to see, but then I was out there with my gf and we got to watch it take off into the dusk as well which just made the whole thing fucking incredible.
 
Helpful life hack: Close your eyes when tearing an orange apart so the juice can't squirt into your eye.

What do kiwis think of Itsagundam?
He sounds kind of like a Jerky Boys character and is sort of funny at times.

For the time being, you can make up your own ID plate here
 
Nool has made it impossible to view banned accounts. No more strikethroughs, no more GAME OVER YEAH, no more Julay.

Thought that was interesting.

Dunno, maybe he got sick of people doing victory laps on their profiles or something.
 
Presumably. But the curious surely ask what specifically was the final straw.
It's literally that some people apparently dumbly ignored the warning not to use the same username as they'd used elsewhere, except it was because the warning wasn't there for some reason. So they didn't really dumbly ignore it, they just were dumb, because you should know not to do that even without a warning. So their previous usernames were visible if they later changed them.

And because of genius design by the XenForo team, the toggle switch to block this blocks other things as well, such as the strikethrough of banned users, and there's no way to decouple this without rewriting the code, and then rewriting it again any time XF updates.

It was not a specific choice to disable the strikethroughs.
 
Lately I've been trying to spread awareness about some of the major problems with YouTube, such as how they refuse to help people when their channels are flagged for vague reasons, the fact that you can get copyright strikes on deleted videos, and don't even get be started on the way they responded to the COPPA situation. I keep telling people to raise a big enough stink about these things that YouTube has no choice to respond but no one ever responds to me even though I know that there are tons of people who agree with me about these things.

I decided to try Melty Blood and immediately found out how fucking stupid the community is. There's some real shit going on behind the scenes and of course, it involves trannies. If I were smarter I'd compile something. I'm really busy lately with college though so documenting the autism on an obscure poverty-fighting game might take awhile.

Cool game though.
