Tell me your dreams, I can do an analysis on them
Looks like none of the images in the catalog work. Let's get a fresh thread in here, focused on computers!

I don't have pictures at the moment to share, but I got lucky today and picked up a nice big beige computer case. I'm assembling a new personal computer from parts that I got deals on, found in the junk heap, or that I was given by friends.

So, I guess it's not really a /retro/ computer, but it will be in a /retro/ case, and I plan to get an adapter which will let me use a 3.5" floppy disk drive in there. The adapter plugs into the floppy pins, and presents a USB interface to the motherboard. That adapter is under $10 USD.

In fact, I've seen an adapter card that will do the same but for 5.25" floppy disk drives. So, when I have more money, I should be able to have not only a 3.5" FDD, but a 5.25" FDD in my system, running alongside new solid state drives, Blu-Ray disc drives, and of course a few regular hard drives. It should be pretty fun.

Again, no pictures yet but I will share with you guys when I can. For now I'll just post one from my collection.

What have you guys been up to?

Heya /comfy/. I want to hear your discoveries and experiences on the numerous adjustments you made to your life to make it as comfy as it can be. It can even be plans for future comfiness. I want to see it all. It doesn't even matter if someone else posted about a similar experience. I want to read as much as you feel comfortable sharing. It doesn't matter how small, since even the smallest change can yield a net positive.

Sometimes, I just become too complacent in uncomfy stuff and assume it can't be helped until I see someone set an example. I have difficulty letting myself be comfy due to personal reasons and as a consequence, I do nothing.

Being comfy isn't just about doing nothing, but it's also about going out of your way to do stuff to be comfy. I'd love for this thread to be a helpful resource into achieving the comfy mindset and serve as a source of inspiration, so share away!

To start, here's a bunch of experiences that I'd like to share.

I always liked Logitech keyboards, but the keycaps they come with are pretty shoddy. The letters washed off when I cleaned them. They even peeled away and stuck to my fingers after some light use. To top it off, I'd have to fork over more money for replacements that likely would do the same. It always stressed me out. I did a little investigation and found out that there are different types of materials used for keycaps. ABS, PBT, and pudding keycaps from what I remember. 90% of keyboards these days come with ABS keycaps and Logitech was no different. Basically, ABS keycaps are the cheapest type and they're thinner, but they're decently quiet for typing. PBT keycaps usually have better ink and sometimes even letters engraved into the material, but they're thicker which means they might produce a heavier thonk sound when you type on them. Pudding keycaps are the best of PBT and ABS combined, in my opinion. The very top is PBT which makes it very durable, and the letters don't get worn off, but the sides are ABS and not inked, which still keeps the quieter typing experience of an ABS keycap. Now, most Logitech keyboards have their unique switches that the keycaps would have to be attached to, and finding keycaps for those switches is a bit tricky, but I was able to find a keyboard from them that used those common cherry switches. I ordered that one and some pudding keycaps in my favorite colors and voila, I now have a comfy keyboard that looks aesthetically pleasing, functions well, doesn't feel greasy after a day, and doesn't fall apart after some soap and water!

Regarding outfits, I decided to embrace wearing oversized sweatshirts about 2 sizes bigger than what I am. For both loungewear and when I'm out and about. Since I like to present myself as a bit dressier nowadays, I just toss a plain-colored collared dress shirt underneath it and I get the style and comfiness all at the same time. The oversized nature of each sweatshirt is perfectly comfortable enough to lounge around in on its own. I can tuck my knees under it to keep my legs warm. It's also big enough to be thrown over some actual clothes without feeling a bit tight. They add an accent color to my outfits since I wear mostly black and white, and it also generally gives me an excuse to wear some vibrant, yet soothing colors I love without it being too much. Efficiency!

And the last one for now since I'd like to avoid blogposting: Shaving is no longer something I loathe. I thought my skin was just extra sensitive to shaving, so I just lived with razor bumps, nicks, redness from irritation, etc. Turns out, I wasn't preparing myself for a shave as well as I should've been. I thought just shaving wet in the shower was enough. I picked up a much newer safety razor that was appraised for being gentle to sensitive skin, switched over to a different brand of razor blades, and started using actual shave butter instead of using my 2-in-1 shampoo as a substitute. My eyes no longer burn and turn red from the 2-in-1 and to top it off, shaving has never been faster and more therapeutic. Most importantly, it's now a comfy experience.

I do have plans to pick up one of those scented shower steamers so shaving and showering is even more comfy. I think I'll try those out sometime next month and give an update here, and maybe ramble some more about more of my experiences after I read some posts.

So, anon, what were your revelations, and what are you up to?

Let's have a new thread without a tonne of broken images.  Have there been any new forms of /retro/ media (could be movies, games, anime, websites, etc.) that wanted to look old and actually succeeded?

There's an artist called BlueTheBone who makes "retro"-styled animations, cheesecake, and porn.  Like any modern hack, he overdoses on visual clutter and uses filters that don't actually resemble the time period he's trying to emulate - but despite that, I think his style is consistently decent.  If he relied less on computers and filters, then I think he'd be a much better artist, but that goes without saying for most contemporary artists.

The really weird things happen when he tries to make modern character designs and media look old, like pic 2.  It isn't exactly wrong, but there is something perplexing about viewing characters and series that were developed specifically with modern aesthetics in mind.
Notre position actuelle par rapport Ă  l’architecture du IIIeReich, faite d’une grande proximitĂ© temporelle et d’une considĂ©rable distance idĂ©ologique, est Ă  vrai dire la seule que la fiction ruiniste du national-socialisme, telle que nous allons l’étudier, ne se soit pas donnĂ© la peine de prĂ©voir et d’imaginer. Nous sommes encore tout prĂšs du IIIe Reich, et pourtant nous vivons aprĂšs lui, avec les consĂ©quences que cela ne manque pas d’avoir sur le regard que nous portons vers cette architecture. Ou celle-ci s’offre dĂ©sormais dans un relatif anonymat ou alors elle a connu ce que Françoise Choay qualifie d’anĂ©antissement symbolique. Lorsque, entre ces deux extrĂȘmes, elle existe dans un abandon rĂ©vĂ©lateur, cette dĂ©saffection est encore trop lĂ©gĂšre pour se donner Ă  lire, Ă  mĂȘme la structure des Ă©difices, Ă  l’aide de la thĂ©orie des ruines. Nous contemplons, lĂ  oĂč la ruine s’annonce, comme au complexe de Nuremberg, plutĂŽt que des voĂ»tes effondrĂ©es, des marques qui ne sont pas Ă  l’échelle de la dĂ©mesure anticipĂ©e par la thĂ©orie de Speer: de simples meurtrissures de la pierre ou une graphie de lĂ©zardes qui n’ont rien des contours gĂ©nĂ©raux Ă©chevelĂ©s ou du sublime effondrement des combles prĂ©vus par l’architecte. C’est peut-ĂȘtre en quoi la thĂ©orie des ruines de Speer rend particuliĂšrement inconfortable. Elle rappelle que les grands Ă©difices du Reich ne furent conçus, “ ni pour l’an 1940, ni pour l’an 2000 mais pour durer mille ans ”, comme le disait Hitler. Ce disant, le Führer pariait, sans le connaĂźtre, sur Le culte moderne des monuments*, bien analysĂ© dĂšs 1903 par Alois Riegl, un autre citoyen de la ville de Linz oĂč Hitler est nĂ©.

How does one get out of the house recreationally?
I love taking hikes and working out, but that's all I do. I need something else. I don't mind spending little money, but shopping gets stressful because I don't have a lot of space. My friends aren't in the area right now, and it's pretty tough to make any more when I don't leave the house. I don't drink and I don't particularly like boozers, so bars are off the table. Bands never come into my area, so concerts aren't viable. I've looked for stuff for ages, and come up with nothing.

I know this is gonna sound weird, but you ever feel a sense of nostalgia for hentai you enjoyed from back in the day?


The 90's and 2000's had some good titles, and I'll include a lot of the 80's titles in this as well since most of them didn't get released in the West until the 90's or early 2000's.


IIRC, Legend of the Overfiend came out in 1987 in Japan but did not get a release in the West until 1993.


I think the first three parts of the Urotsukidoji OVA was the first hentai release in America ever.


Central Park Media took the different OVA installments of Urotsukidoji and edited them into four feature-length movies, the first of which got a limited theatrical release in the 90's.


Of course, there were other classics like La Blue Girl, Ogenki Clinic, and Lyon Flare in the 90's and you also had Bible Black back in the early 2000's.


While this thread is mainly focused on hentai from the 90's and 2000's (or 80's hentai that was released outside of Japan in the 90's and 2000's) there is another thing I do kind of miss.


Remember those softcore skin flicks that used to air on Cinemax and HBO late at night? 


They were pretty popular back in the 1990's and 2000's and they even lasted into the 2010's before HBO shut them down completely after the AT&T merger.


I kind of liked those. Yeah, they may not have been as lewd as the hardcore stuff you find online but there was a certain campy charm about them.


I suppose you could also include the old Girls Gone Wild DVD's as well, since they were sort of like a cross between Skinemax and early 2000's reality TV and you used to see the censored informercials for them all the time on Comedy Central and Spike TV late at night back in the 2000's.

Hey Admin, I'm trying to set my custom CSS on /comfy/ but it says
'''
Bad Request
Custom CSS strict mode is enabled and does not allow the following: "@", "url("
'''

I believe it's because I link the background image in it, despites I uploaded it in the "Assets" settings of the board.

It works well when I test my CSS in the "on the fly" settings though so I believe it may be a permission problem that prevent me to put anURL in my CSS. Please halp !

We can all agree they're reddit right?
Had two normalfags in class bring it up in their project, Part of me even wanted to step out of my comfort zone and go "Haha EPIC I too have seen films that are part of the Criterion Collection!" but thankfully didn't. 
In addition to the fact that towards the end of 2020 when they dropped a physical release bomb or something dozens of people made exposure videos that all got hundreds of thousands of views, we can all agree that as of 2020, they are officially Reddit right? Maybe in the 2010's they were obscure enough to be relegated to only cuckchan tier but now that normalfags jump up in excitement at the name, we can just confirm that it's reddit right?

Baking, brewing, and cooking are berry important hearth-building and health-building skills. They are a surefire way to make yourself /comfy/, Anon! What are you baking, brewing, or cooking at the moment? How is it coming out? What will you be trying next time? Is there anything you'd like to try improving? Is there something you'd like to learn? Maybe you have something you'd like to teach us? I tried some old things and new things today! Pics related are: >the bread I made earlier today; a shrimple white cobb loaf. This was the first time I was just able to make it from memory. It felt great to be able to just reach for the ingredients and go through the motions. As luck wood have it, the prove went well and the slashes formed up beautifully. I was worried that the crumb inside wood be a little wet but it turned out berry nice with a good chewy crust. The loaf is wrapped in beeswax cloth now so I can eat it over the week. I'm considering getting a sourdough starter going but I don't know if I'm good enough to handle it yet. >my first attempt at glazing carrots Apparently glazing (which I have found out is different from caramelising) is a basic technique that even professionals find difficult to get perfect eberry time. I think my first attempt here had just a touch too little water and a touch too little sugar, though I reckon I got the butter correct. See how the finished carrots don't have an even glaze? They still tasted berry good with some parsley and finishing salt. Next I'm going to try blanching with asparagus. >sous vide pork tenderloin >fell for the sous vide meme Yes, and I love it! Weirdly, the garlic I put on these pork tenderloins was stained bluish-green by the other herbs during the water bath, but they cooked down to a tasty colour during the two minute finishing sear. I had the pork together with the carrots for dinner. They tasted great and I felt a great upswell of wellbeing after I finished them. Your turn, Anon!
Joyeux varandredi !
So, what are some of your favorite memories of the old internet?


Can be websites, memes, events or any other aspect of the days of Web 1.0 and 1.5


For a quick reference, here's what I would define as Web 1.0 and Web 1.5


>Web 1.0: Usenet, Geocities and Angelfire, AOL (1991-2001)
>Web 1.5: Early YouTube, ED, 4chan in its "wild west" days, MySpace, YTMND, Newgrounds and the peak years of dA and Fanfiction.net (2001-2008)


You also had cross-generation stuff like GameFAQs and IMDB which are still around today, although sadly IMDB's infamous message boards are gone

Hi, welcome to The New New Thread. Same as The Old and Old Old Threads!
This is a thread allegedly for discussing TiTS and other games, I guess. And developing games. And stuff.
Despite this being a TiTS thread in name (for historical purposes), barely anyone here plays TiTS.
For further information on the game, I recommend you go here to ask.

For reasons of how long this thread's existed and how much fen's fucked up everything he's touched, there's a good chance the thread will have barely anything to do with fenoxo and his hugbox at any given point.

Anon a sûrement entendu dire que Paris (et la France) accueillera bientÎt les Jeux Olympiques de 2024.
Personnellement, rien à foutre mais visiblement ça fait bien jaser entre ceux qui y croient durs comme fer, ceux qui doutent et ceux qui carrément y voient un fiasco annoncé.
J'aurais tendance Ă  me situer dans le dernier camp, non pas que je me refuse de penser que ça puisse ĂȘtre un beau moment de sport, de communion nationale et d'amitiĂ© entre les peuples. Eut Ă©tant donnĂ© que le sport de haut niveau ne soit pas devenu un Disneyland supplĂ©mentaire, glorifiant de fait tous les travers de nos sociĂ©tĂ©s : hyper consumĂ©risme, paresse intellectuelle et Ă©loge de l'individualisme.
Bref, "l'aventure JO" promet de belles rĂ©flexions sur la sociĂ©tĂ© française et je me ferais un plaisir non pas de suivre ça avec attention mais d'y observer d'un Ɠil dĂ©sintĂ©ressĂ© ce que cela dira de nous en tant que nation et en tant que peuple.

Je suis tellement déconnecté du truc que je viens de tomber par hasard sur la présentation en avant-premiÚre de la danse officielle des "JO 2024Ÿ" donnée lors du dernier Téléthon de décembre 2023.
Il n'y a absolument rien qui va. Rien.

N'Ă©tant pas un spĂ©cialiste de la danse je me contenterais de dire que celle-ci est d'un niveau qui me semble bien loin de ce que l'on est en droit d'attendre pour un Ă©vĂšnement de cette ampleur. C'est amateur, trĂšs amateur au point qu'on dirait un truc fait par une bande de collĂ©giens en un aprĂšs-midi pour un flash-mob Ă  la con au Flunch de la zone commerciale de Pontivy-sur-Creusot. Tout simplement affligeant. Notons que lors de la cĂ©rĂ©monie officielle le truc aura peut-ĂȘtre plus de gueule avec costumes, sons et lumiĂšres, mise en scĂšne... Mais tout de mĂȘme, la claque putain.

La musique en revanche a particuliĂšrement retenu mon attention. On a droit Ă  une espĂšce de truc arabo-andalou sans Ăąme parsemĂ© de chƓurs vaguement africanisants hyper stĂ©rĂ©otypĂ©s Ă  la Yann Arthus-Bertrand qui articulent parfois des trucs bateau en anglais. La rythmique est tout simplement dĂ©gueulasse (je suis de prime abord assez rebutĂ© par les sonoritĂ©s afro-latines avouons-le, mais lĂ  s'en est vraiment dĂ©sagrĂ©able). Ça se veut pĂȘchu mais c'est d'une mollesse et d'un ennui sans noms. C'est fade, c'est facile et sans imagination au point que l'on dirait que ça a Ă©tĂ© composĂ© par une IA promptĂ©e Ă  l'arrache.
Notons que la composition est signĂ©e Gotan Project, un groupe qui produit une fusion Ă©lectro-tango qui arrive a ĂȘtre encore plus inintĂ©ressant que l'Ă©lectro-swing (et je dĂ©teste l'Ă©lectro-swing).
Bref, oĂč est la french-touch lĂ  dedans ? Certes c'est une cĂ©rĂ©monie internationale mais en tant que pays hĂŽte ne devrions-nous pas Ă  l'instar de ce qu'on fait les Chinois en 2008 inclure ce qui a ? fait la force de la culture Française dans une ode Ă  ce qui se veut une grand moment de communion entre les peuples ?
LĂ  on a juste droit Ă  une musique qui sonne corporate, sans Ăąme, sans racines et sans volontĂ©. Ça passerait en fond sonore dans un supermarchĂ©, au mieux.

Sans ĂȘtre un JO basher j'ai le sentiment que cet ersatz de cĂ©rĂ©monie est Ă  l'image de ce que serons les JO de paris 2024Âź (outre le sport) : de la gaudriole facile et sans rĂ©flexion pour tenter de masquer maladroitement le marasme ambiant, un sparadrap Mickey sur une jambe gangrenĂ©e. Ça fait bien longtemps que le soft-power Français s'est fait la malle, mais lĂ  c'est littĂ©ralement tirer sur l'ambulance.

Bref, que le meilleur gagne.

Welcome to
The Second GAMEJAM!

You know the rules. This month-long jam ends on 4/4. Try to make a game based around the theme, and good luck!
<Current theme
Asteroids (1979) with your own unique twist.

>What's this?
A short exercise in creativity. Make a game in thirty days. Link your submission to the anchor post below on 4/4 or whenever you feel you're ready. Hopefully, it'll turn into a recurring event.
>Why?
Because it'll give you a chance to unrust and improve your skills, and a short project helps with burnout on a longer one.
>What do I need?
Whatever language or engine you use is up to you. The only restrictions are that you need to make a game based on the current theme before the deadline.
>How do I make game?
If you really don't know where to start, give Lazyfoo's SDL2 tutorials a look.
>But last time, we had a common codebase!
Just cannibalize something, nobody's looking.
>"You know the rules." I actually don't!
Well, good thing there aren't any. If you're not sure about something, just ask.

If you need any feedback or help, feel free to voice your concerns.
I look forward to seeing what makes your entry stand out.
Anyone else here /retro/maxxing? I've realized there is no point in denying myself happiness and gigacoziness and I may as well go all in on my retro obsessions even if it's a bit weird. 

I could list a bunch of things I'm doing but I'll start with just a couple here

>film photography
I have never bought a digital camera and I have stopped being a NEET lately. I have a small comfy job so I have some money and I buy rolls of film on occasion and I carry a late '90s point and shoot camera with me almost everywhere I go. It's fun and super comfy. I also started developing black and white film myself, at home.

>computer
I have set up my windows machine to look like windows 98 (not completely accurate but I've changed over the icons and use a classic theme, etc. 

And on my linux machine I have set it up to look like some versions of UNIX from the late 80s to early 90s.

And for my browser I use Pale Moon and I have it set to look like Netscape.

>music
I go to the record store sometimes and browse around and I have a collection of tapes, CDs, and records which I listen to. I have a lot of fun fixing cassette decks too.

I could go on but what have you guys been doing? You ARE living it, aren't you anons??
Post videos that capture what life was like in the 90s and 2000s

e.g. home videos, TV programs, news segments, documentaries etc.
So up until now, we've had a lot (lol) of off-topic posting, a lot a one-and-done "how do I make game tho" posts in various threads, especially the meta and progress threads. This is now the new dumping ground for those posts. Do try to put some effort into your posts though, you'll get more responses and won't have to face the wrath of jacked Carmack and his dragon dildo sword+2 that way.
ITT we make create our own comfy adventures
The anons talking about their times in the Mississippi banks was pretty comfy. I'd never heard of the driftless area before, but it sounds mythical. I'd like to start a thread like that here. You're welcome to post your stories and adventures on walks in the city or out and about in nature, I'd love to read them.
This fucker cost me a billion dollars. I could have bought bitcoin 12 years ago instead i listened to this scheming jew to buy shiny protons. Gold is fucking shit and supressed to fuck. Fuck all gold and silver meme faggots
You might remember the thread I had on the old board. This thread is dedicated to studying comics, graphic stories, manga, etc. to learn the techniques and methods thereof.
I want to go back. When browsing the Web felt like going on an adventure.

What substitutes for "Wild West" these days? All I can think of are Tor, Zeronet, and the vast array of imageboards. Discord can feel pretty wild too sometimes, that is if you can find the right servers.

Post what you know, please.

We all appreciate being comfy. Part of the process implies staying at home doing nothing but watching some enjoyable things.

ITT we share good watch to spend some cozy moments in front of.
Alright, that's enough dilly-dallying (Happy Valentine's day, Anon!)
This thread was meant to go up at the start of february, but instead got delayed until now.
Now, as I mentioned before, I can't create common codebases for anyone to pick up and work with, as I simply haven't the time. What I do have is an updated collection of resources which will probably go up later in another thread for anyone to use.
Demo day is still planned for 8/8, but now I'm having trouble placing this jam now that I know Ludum Dare is also planned for april. What should it be? March? May? Would you really do two jams in a row?
Whatever.

Let's make it a month-long event. From 3/3 to 4/4 it is.
Here's what's expected: It should be 2D. Preferably with some gameplay.
If you'd like to suggest themes, source codes for cannibalizing, genres, or complain, feel free.
Figured it would be good for others, I've been scratching my brain for hours (unhealthy?) trying to remember where the he'll I saw this scene: A man wearing a hat steps outside to smoke a cigarette, when a phantasmagorical hand appears from thin air and seems to bother his psyche...
The weirdest thing about this is that it felt like a silent film, but the elements like the man and his hat felt very noir-ish... And this might be the years of substance abuse catching up to me but I even remember the scene being purple tinted and the floating hand yellow tinted... Or was it the other way round! Am I losing it!
A place for all things meta regarding our small dark room. Suggestions, banners, board exposure plans, they go here. 
Be not afraid to comment.
The alien thread has gotten me nostalgic for some good old fashioned conspiracy theories. Nowadays it's all just commodotized creepypastas and political shitflinging, which is fucking laaaaame.

What are some of your favorite conspiracy theories of the more obscure or classic varieties? Thought provoking, entertaining, or just weird.

The more schizo, convoluted, detailed, and overcomplicated the better.
Post pictures that you've taken to share them with other anons. Talk about the things you like to take pics of and what camera you use. 
I'll start. I use a Lumix FZ48, and I like to take pictures of nature, and I want to get into more Urbex pictures.
The 2000's were arguably the last decade when children actually played with toys...
 
What toys did you have? What toys did you want? Share memories from visiting the big toy aisles, etc.
 
P.S. The size of the pictures does not indicate the importance/quality of the toys besides Action Man vs Max Steel..'cause Action man is better or you can argue otherwise.

All styles welcome!
It released on Switch a couple days ago, anybody wanna talk about it?
I ran Gear, Rom, and Vert on the PS4 release just because I didn't think that any skills could possibly be more important than healing on demand, and I just had them projectile spam to stay back from enemy's attacking range, but I wonder if any of ya'll have different strategies you used. Some differences I found were Maho, Anri, Reimu, and Higurashi being dumped on you right out of the lab, a new environment where battles take place rather than on the field, a new victory screen, transitions to and from battle, and a faster auto-advance speed.

Apologies if ya'll already discussed this in another thread, I just couldn't find it.
Nous travaillons dans les usines pour produire les trucs que nous pourrons consommer. Nous le faisons contre rĂ©munĂ©ration pour pouvoir nous payer plus de trucs affin d'ĂȘtre plus Ă©panouis pour pouvoir produire mieux plus de trucs. Nous consommons les loisirs produits par le capitalisme pour ĂȘtre plus heureux affin de mieux accepter de devoir produire plus de trucs et vouloir plus les consommer.
Nous sommes nos propres esclaves parce que nous acceptons de fait de nous maintenir sous la coupe du capitalisme international. Nous ne faisons que nous exploiter mutuellement.
Pis encore nous aimons nos chaĂźnes, nous aimons cette illusoire sensation de libertĂ© parce que - tout de mĂȘme, tu comprends - on pourra quand mĂȘme se payer le week-end Ă  Disneyland et le dernier Ă©cran plat pour nous donner l’illusion de rĂ©flĂ©chir devant Hanouna ou Canal+. Nous pourrons quand mĂȘme nous la payer notre bouteille de mauvais whisky hors de prix au Macumba ce week-end. Nous aurons le sentiment d'ĂȘtre des princes, un moment nous aurons l'impression de ressentir ce vertige du vide, de toucher du doigt la grandeur.
Nous sommes misĂ©rables. Nous sommes des ĂŒberbeaufs. Nous sommes des engrenages de viande dĂ©gueulasse. Nous aimons ça...

Heureusement il y a l'État pour veiller sur nous. Il encadre notre condition, la pare de grands idĂ©aux. Habille toute cette immonde merde de drapeaux et de flonflons, nous ne dĂ©ambulons plus dans ces villes que comme des fantĂŽmes. Des amas de viande glapissantes dans les rues de ce Disneyland sordides, satisfaits. Au mieux rĂ©signĂ©s... Mais on pourra toujours gueuler le jour convenu, Ă  l'heure convenue, sur le tracĂ© convenu entre la Place de la Bastille et la Porte de la RĂ©publique. Au moins nous avons encore le droit de lever (un peu) la voix, de serrer son poing en l'air en scandant tels des robots les poncifs idĂ©ologiques, prĂ©mĂąchĂ©s, prĂ©digĂ©rĂ©s, prĂȘts Ă  consommer. Nous avons marchandisĂ©s les idĂ©es et elles ont Ă©tĂ© rachetĂ©es lors d'une OPA hostile par le capitalisme qui nous les revends ensuite chaque fois avec un nouvel emballage. Respect de la DLC : OK, mise en rayon idĂ©ologique, remplir son caddie... Bonjour, ça fera 99,99 balles avec la promotion, merci au revoir et Ă  bientĂŽt.

Tout n'est plus que spectacle. Tous n'est plus qu'Ă©motions. Tout n'est plus que farce sordide.
Nous nous délectons de notre condition.
>ITT: Vidya of the 90's and 2000's


Keep it limited to the scope of this board, so basically Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Generation consoles only for now. 


For those who don't know what consoles are part of which generation, here's a quick rundown of the time frame we're talking about...


>Fourth Generation: SNES, Sega Genesis/Sega CD
>Fifth Generation: PS1, N64, Sega Saturn
>Sixth Generation: Dreamcast, PS2, Gamecube, OG Xbox


Discussion of games from the Seventh Generation consoles (PS3/Wii/Xbox 360) is allowed as well, but I'd like the thread to mainly focus on the 4th-6th console genererations since the 7th Gen era carried over into the 2010's and a lot of the games from that era onward obviously have far more in common with modern gaming than stuff from the 16-bit consoles or the PS1 and PS2 eras.


You can also discuss PC games and handhelds from 1990-2009 in this thread too, as well as arcade games from that time.


Any old-school gaming topic is fair game, whether it be the games themselves or old video gaming magazines, even wild rumors from that kid on the playground whose uncle worked at Nintendo...
post any ethereal nighttime shots from any "night" movies/tv/anime (if it makes nighttime look cool or comforting). the more obsure it is the more points you get
Dreaded but necessary, this is the spot for discussion towards the hardware and perhaps some of the software.
Lenses, cameras, tripods, belts, grub, you name it.
Remember to follow the rules ( https://anon.cafe/lego/rules.html ) RIP https://trashchan.xyz/lego/custompage/lego_rules.html and have fun!

This thread is for any queries you may have for the board, suggestions for improvements, etc.

(old mod message preserved for posterity) (Last edited 26/05/2020, 22:56:33 by LordVladek)
Alright, this is meant to be a successor to /y2k/ on the old 8chan, however I have expanded it to include both the 1990's and the 2000's and NSFW content is allowed, provided it's actually related to the purpose of this board and doesn't violate any of the site's core rules.
This is a thread to give some background on the illegal porn spam with links. I've seen some false guesses and claims going around on various boards so I figured it's time I made a dedicated thread to explain it.

I have been a janny, mod or admin on a few imageboards for the past 10 years, and casually post on many, including anon.cafe for the last 4 (although less so recently). Those who use a few different sites at once, especially slower/understaffed boards, will soon begin to notice patterns. Posts which look out of place. Identical posts which look out of place on two different sites. Drop a quote from it into a search engine and it's on twenty different imageboards!
It turns out there are a few spammers on imageboards, who go down a list of boards reposting the same post. A few years ago I made a bot to regularly check for new threads on imageboards and highlight any duplicates, documenting imageboard spam to find patterns and learn how to combat it.
There are a few different main categories of this spam. One is imageboard spam (or sometimes forums or D#scord chats), many of you will have seen recent posts from two news imageboards, just posting a link to their site and leaving. Political spam is also big (almost always either generic /pol/ tripe, Christian evangelism or actual schizophrenic psychosis), and it's worth noting that politics spam was especially big around 2020 so there will probably be a heap later this year. This is easy to spot on hobby boards, although it often blends in unnoticed on politics boards and random (/b/) boards, where they're often taken seriously, and sometimes those spammers choose to just repost only on the dozen /pol/ boards online. There are some other smaller classes of spam, but we're here to talk about the biggest spam category by far:

The CP spam is commercial spam. That's why they have links in them.
They hit any imageboard they can find. Even test sites with no users.
Different CP site owners have been doing this for at least 10 years, and probably ever since the internet went public.

This isn't news to people who have been around for a while, but for fresh users on political sites it's easy to jump to the conclusion that its one person (some cryptic 'pedoposter' character), or their designated scapegoat or feds trying to take their site down. But this was happening before /pol/ was even a board on 4chan, and it was happening on even harmless niche hobby imageboards (which is where I started jannying ten years ago, to help delete the hourly CP spam until the admin programmed a hacky countermeasure). And they don't just target imageboards. This is commercial spam. They target any blog comment section or unsecured forum they can discover. You can verify this yourself by checking where the same ad link appears in a search engine. There are commercial/freeware tools made by organized crime companies for discovering and spamming unsecured forums, which brag about being able to break most captchas (and even 10 years ago you could pay $1 per 1000 Google reCAPTCHA solves by real humans in poorer countries, all plugged into your bot via an API).

But there's an important point. The current ones aren't bot posting. These are humans, fresh custom-made captchas don't stop them. Simple post filters don't stop them ('post blocked, please try again' won't stop someone who is financially motivated). Anything that wouldn't stop you, won't stop them. And I say 'them' for good reason, you can verify both through basic linguistic forensics (typing styles, filename choices, filter evasion techniques, etc.) and by fingerprinting their user-agents that the same link is being posted by multiple spammers. Specifically, the current one with a child model on a purple background has the same link being posted by three distinct people, all from East Siberia and far North East Asia. They each have a list of target sites (some use imageboard lists like (historically) cc0's list or AllChans, others use custom-made spam lists with all kinds of websites on them, this can sometimes be confirmed by checking their HTTP referrers) and they go down the list, one by one, often clearly in alphabetical order, posting their garbage. They usually post on the first board they see, usually the first alphabetically or the most active/bumped board (which is why anons here correctly pointed out /comfy/ and /k/ were disproportionately targeted on anon.cafe), although they may also just have a certain arbitrary board saved (like lainchan's /zzz/, apparently), maybe because it got listed in a search first. I've seen cases where an imageboard has just locked their /a/ board due to constant spam and most of it disappeared (/a/ is first in alphabetical order, so on their homepage it was the first a spammer would click, so this wouldn't work on lynxchan/jschan's boardlist where they're ordered by activity).

It's also important to keep in mind that CP sites come and go, and along with it, different spammers. There have been particularly nasty ones in the past which posted full nudes, link in the image only so the post couldn't be text filtered, random filename, and either no text or text copied from other posts. Phash techniques could be a useful approach there, and the Junkuchan admin has mentioned in the Cloudflare thread that phash filtering has worked well for them. 

Keep in mind, while it's possible in rare cases there is some CP posting which is different to what most people and I am describing, you can very clearly tell when it's different, the main difference being that malicious posters aren't shilling a pedo scam website. I have seen malicious CP posting only once, where a /pol/ user raided a site with child nude modelling photos posted from purchased VPS servers (this was done during a mass raid after the victim imageboard was linked in an active 4chan /pol/ thread. This was back in 2021 or 2022). That stuff tends to be either posted without any text (neither in the body nor the image) or with a taunt.

Here is the monitoring system: https://xj9k.neocities.org/
It only monitors certain sites, and only OPs on some sites, so it's far from conclusive but it's demonstrative.
Spam posts are grouped together under one detection (semi-automatically, so there are some small mistakes), it's worth clicking [Expand] and seeing how they differ over time and attempt to evade filters, or how the same spammer makes similar but different spam posts.
Clicking the Tags button in the top corner (or clicking on a tag) will show you examples of the many categories of spam.
Tell me a short story from your life.
Anything mundane, exciting, nostalgia, emotional. Literally anything as long as it's a vaguely happy one.

Agent tr00n will never be a woman
I was going to post that the newest Minifig set has a classic Space figure with a space babby and then I realized that /lego/ doesn't even have a proper Minifigure thread!
The in-spot for appreciation of Jazz and its multiple off-shots, chiefly among them the flamboyant and ever-shifting Fusion genre along with some House and its evolution into NĂŒ-Jazz.
Pieces and solo-ing samples along with actual tiny bits of history (usually) will be served once in a while for performer context.
These genres usually have the particularity that the bands are very temporal and/or have members with extensive side works so i will probably post the line-ups too in the webm dumps.
Also fusion albums move very closely in the border of jazz, rock and funk so it won't be rare to post music that could very well fit into other genres, especially progressive rock.

So, after the not so happy end in chapter two, let's restart this game from the beginning.

Chapter 1: >>82
Chapter 2: >>648
Summary: https://questlog.neocities.org/instead

Chapter 3 (From the beginning)

You're Tom, 29, single, and a full time wageslave. There's not much to talk about your life, today was a usual day for you. You're walking home late at night after a long day of wageslaving. Your coworkers fucked up everything they could then left, so you had to fix all their bullshit---just like always. The weather is also horrible, it's cold and there's a fucking winter storm out here, but at least it means you don't have to deal with the crowd of people. In fact, you're the only person walking down the road, only a few people in cars dare to go anywhere in this weather.
You reach the shop you were heading for, to buy some food for dinner, but the entrance is dark. You walk closer and you notice a small sign: "CLOSED DUE TO WEATHER."
"Shit," you sigh and start walking back home. You hope you can still find something edible in your fridge, because there's no way you will go find a different shop in this weather.
You suddenly hear a low, grumbling sound. You stop and look around, but you don't see anything. What is this? Finally, when you look up, you see a big lump of snow falling toward you! This view shocks you, and before you could react, the avalanche hits you and you pass out.

When you regain your senses, you wake up... in a forest like thing? It's certainly not winter here, it should be about 30 °C (86 °F) here, but it feels much hotter due to the high humidity. You look at yourself, it looks like you're naked, the only piece of clothing you have is a bracelet you don't recognize---it's some wooden balls with various carvings of animals. You're full of wounds and bruises, it's no surprise that every part of your body hurts. You're also thirsty and hungry, but in your current situation you're not sure whether you can stand up at all.

...

Since this is a replay, feel free to skip ahead until the story diverges. I don't want to copy-paste the whole chapter 1 here.
Is it late yet?
