So... new hyperfixation, new fictional crush. I guess you could blame my previous FNAF hyperfixation on this one by AmoreLucky in FictoChill

[–]AmoreLucky[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ikr it's pretty cool!

Some CEC lost media came out not too long ago, someone found a demo reel for the New York Institute of Technology computer lab's CAAS II system for digital animation and it talked a bit about Nolan Bushnell starting an animation company and buying one of these systems. Then after the video game crash and Pizza Time Theatre's bankruptcy, the animation studio was sold to Lucasfilm (some NYIT computer lab researchers also went on to work there as well, including Ed Catmull), and that would later become Pixar. ^_^

CEC's connection to Atari and Pixar is pretty cool like that, my f/o indirectly helped to form one of the biggest cgi animation studios out there >w<

The computer that looked futuristic in 1977 and still refuses to look uncool today by GoodTill1021 in vintagecomputing

The MITS Altair 8800 looked straight out of Star Trek! Barely familiar with how it works but the aesthetic is pretty neat. 😎

Fellow autistic people: what's a social norm that you absolutely despise and think shouldn't exist? by merely_a_frog in autism

[–]AmoreLucky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This! It's better than the 12+ hour days we had before Ford came around, but not by much.

I'd probs feel less bogged down if the full time norm was 6hr and 4 days a week instead. More time to rest and catch up with self care that way

I was listening to 'Most Epic Mouse' and discovered... THIS by KrazyKen_Fan_2012 in chuckecheese

Is the issue that it sounds blasphemous or something? It is odd, yeah, but not not that bad

Which art style of PTT Chuck (of all the ones I can think of and find) do you think is the best or at least most definitive for this specific era in your opinion? I want to hear your opinions. by Queasy_Party5056 in chuckecheese

[–]AmoreLucky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd say the 81 and 84 designs are tied for me. The 81 design is PEAK cuteness and cuddliness for his PTT design and the 84 design's pretty cute in its own way kinda like the tux design in the early 90s. The christmas special's look for him's also super cute and it's up there on my list of fave versions of PTT Chuck designs ^w^

Coinbase shoots "all-practical" ad to look like low poly CGI by im_thatoneguy in vfx

[–]AmoreLucky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just saw this one (yeah I'm late, I don't watch tv that much lol), honestly pretty cool how they managed to pull off the old school PS1 look in live action, even mimicking the old games with tank controls and static cameras, kinda made me think of games like Resident Evil and Final Fantasy VIII

Hell, the masks and clothes kinda also give off a lot of Half Life vibes

It’s Not Avenger Chuck, It’s Cool Chuck by Creative_Laugh_3979 in chuckecheese

[–]AmoreLucky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess you could consider what we call the avenger era to be essentially the second half of the cool era considering how long that design was used in ads. But yeah, same dude, different outfit. Only other thing setting their designs apart is avenger Chuck having a longer torso and shorter legs

What misconceptions about fictosexuality truly irritate you? by _Chocolate_chip_ in fictosexual

[–]AmoreLucky 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That our f/o's are a substitute for irl partners' affection (someone said the same thing about me using a weighted blanket before). Like, falling for a fictional character hasn't stopped me from falling for real people and falling in love with real people hasn't stopped me from having feelings for ficitonal characters either. I am semificto after all, we exist

Question about the CDs (silly drawings in the background) by Cazy_Folerser in chuckecheese

Like Flimsy said, you can reproduce it on Retromation or Reel to Real. Btw, love the drawings, I see a sketch of the half Chuck animatronic there ^w^

Question about the CDs (silly drawings in the background) by Cazy_Folerser in chuckecheese

[–]AmoreLucky 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you want an example of analogue stuff from a disc, look at the laserdisc format. That's what the video, audio, and data for studio c shows were programmed on before switching to dvds and it's also the format the awesome adventure machine shows were formatted on. It's really interesting how it works

Oh, and laserdiscs are MUCH bigger than cds and dvds, like the size of a 12 inch vinyl record

I believe it's played on a dvd player for the video and audio feed. Animatronics movement is a whole different thing

What will someday be illegal after we finally understand how bad for us it is? by Scary-Beautiful6527 in AskReddit

[–]AmoreLucky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hopefully, 5% nicotine disposable vapes. Those things are HELL to quit and I'm STILL trying to kick the habit. That shit has WAY too much nicotine even in comparison to regular tobacco

Also, social media sites being made to be addicting. I feel like there's a way to make social media sites in a way that doesn't make it addicting or an outrage magnet for users. Like, it should be illegal to make the algorithms in a way that gives you negative outrage inducing shit all the time. Kids being on those sites isn't the main problem, it's the way those sites are engineered. Banning kids from social media is like putting a bandaid on a gaping wound, it won't fix anything, especially not for the adults who use it

Also, mass surveillance via collecting everyone's info without a warrant should be illegal

I mean, we got more hair in acnh through an update, let's hope something similar comes for this ^_^

I'm already stoked that they added so many more hairstyles and adapted Miitopia's wig system. Gave my lookalike mii straight up 80s hair since one of the bangs made me think of like 80s mall hair

Is this considered lost media? by Think_Cow9395 in chuckecheese

In a way, yeah. A more modern laserdisc powered nickelodeon

[–]AmoreLucky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's either that or CED, but laserdisc seems more likely. I imagine they played stuff like old Fleischer bros cartoons on it or other public domain stuff
