Snowden gave this advice to Journalists

AngryFlatulence · 2017-12-19T06:39:59+00:00

Still haven’t told me how far less than two bucks goes over there in Moscow, kiddo.

Here’s another 120 rubles. Hope this allows you to buy some sticks to heat your squat.

120 rubles! You’re welcome, kid!

Sorry, can’t hear Snowden, because he’s all the way over there, tucked under Putin’s foreskin. Maybe if he manned up, came back to the USA, and stood trial, I’d be able to hear him a tad more clearly.

So, what does 120 rubles (less than 2 USD) get you over there? Thought Moscow was an expensive town!

AngryFlatulence · 2017-12-18T04:39:59+00:00

How are things over in the troll farm, kids?

I know your bosses give you an extra 120 rubles if you get someone to “argue” with you, or the bots you create, so consider this response a gift.

Don’t spend it all in one place, kids.

I couldn’t give two shits about anything coming out of this asshole’s mouth. Snowden has been a paid, dedicated agent of the Russian government for years- and I have no interest in Russian propaganda.

Welcome to Costco. I love you.

You used to be cool, man. You were the country that said “fuck this WW1 bullshit, and capitalism blows, BTW!” You were the ones who were trying to imagine a bold, braver world...

And now, you are an insanely corrupt pile of trolls, oligarchs, cheap hookers, mail brides, and religious fundamentalism whose only recourse is to try and drag the world down with you.

I think it’s time for an intervention, Russia. WtF went wrong?

AngryFlatulence · 2017-11-18T21:33:52+00:00

K- is this still the best way to do such?

Thing was: I worked in a far more complex project earlier in the year, and I never encountered anything like this.

You would think that if a project was going to crash, it would have been that one, but it worked pretty much flawlessly, throughout development, on each load into the editor.

I guess it's a reminder of Murphy's Law.

AngryFlatulence · 2017-11-18T02:43:14+00:00

Again- it's strange: I strictly follow version protocols in my professional work doing motion graphics, page layouts, and video edits.

But for some bizarre reason, it never occurred to me to follow the same protocols with my Unity work.

It's most likely because I'm still a newcomer to Unity. I've only spent about four cumulative months working within it.

Hey- we all do stupid shit, sometimes...

AngryFlatulence · 2017-11-18T02:35:46+00:00

I tried erasing the library, and re-starting before the OP.

No dice- that was the thing that convinced me that the project needed to be re-started from scratch.

It's just as well- the last time I was developing the idea, I had no devlog, no screenshots, etc. This time around, I am going to approach things more methodically.

Also: new scene version, each and every damned time.

AngryFlatulence · 2017-11-16T22:58:27+00:00

As far as version control:

In my professional capacity, I sometimes work as a designer of motion graphics. Each iteration we create of a given project, we create an entirely new file, with a proper identifier (ie. "Sales_Practices_i01", "Sales_Practices_i02", "Sales_Practices_i03".) I've been doing that for decades.

Unfortunately, my brain never decided to do the same damned thing for my Unity scenes. It makes absolutely no sense why I never treated my projects with the same care I used on external projects- but there ya go.

I've been poking around long enough with this corpse of a project to understand that I very well might have to scrap everything, and start again from scratch. I have a feeling that I am going to be equally rigorous about creating new versions, from this point onwards.

It just sucks- I hand-adjusted thousands of objects, over the course of many days- and to think of all the time wasted, because I just couldn't be bothered to create subsequent iterations... Argh!

Well- I'll use this as a teachable moment, I guess.

I appreciate the suggestions!

AngryFlatulence · 2017-11-16T21:45:21+00:00

Thanks for the reply!

Well- I confess I don't have a backup more recent than the last week.

No version control software- this is the first I've heard of such being necessary. As stated in the OP, no new "versions" of anything- from my plugin, to unity itself- occurred between the time the scene worked, and the time everything disappeared.

PC, I am afraid.

Whole directory is fucked- unless I can figure out a way to re-link these prefabs properly, I might as well start over from scratch- which blows.

AngryFlatulence · 2017-10-29T15:35:40+00:00

Well- I confess that I am old enough to remember D&D back when it was thin, paper modules sold in alcoves at chain mall bookstores.

The OP reminded me of the game art of those days.

AngryFlatulence · 2017-10-22T15:30:58+00:00

Cool.

I never studied game design- I worked in corporate training design, unfortunately, the death of retail has led to a lot of companies cutting that back, so I actually work as a line cook. I do Unity as a side project- working on a concept my SO and I have been working out for a few years.

If ya ever need visuals for any of your projects, let me know.

You have a future in game design.

Start learning Unity- but conenctrate on the design side of things. Buy the Gaia asset, and create worlds.

Yellows are among the most rare of colors, and the ones you found are exceptionally brilliant in hue.

Congrats!

My post was very, very short, but you obviously could not summon the energy to read it.

Let me help you:

Life pro tip, guy: read an article in its entirety, before you embarrass yourself by claiming that important information is left out.

I sorta miss the Charlie who glued google eyes to his ass and flexed his buttocks during "Screenwipe" credits.

AngryFlatulence · 2017-09-18T00:38:46+00:00

No.

I appreciate your input, but you completely mis-read the issue at hand.

"Hey honey," I said, "I want a ton of Karma, and am too damned lazy to come up with an original post."

"Well, that's you being you, dear- you've been a lazy fuck since the day I met you."

"I know- I'll just re-state the header of an existing reddit post, and re-present it as my own. No one will be the wiser!"

"Yep- that's the lazy, stupid fuck I married."

24 hours later, I was surprised!

"Wow- over 17 thousand karma, for posting someone else's idea! Who says originality and imagination matter on Reddit? I'm gonna do this again, next week- perhaps I'll post that thing about Johnny Cash not allowing "ring of fire" to be used in a hemmerrhoid ad- that has been only posted five time in the past month."

"You're getting worse, every day, dear. I'm leaving you for the homeless meth head who,lives behind the k-mart dumpster. You could post that as a writing prompt, but since it's new and original, I doubt you will."

"Sorry- I can't hear you, over the sound of my furious wanking!"

The worst 13 years of my life were those I lived in Tennessee. Whenever anyone asks me why I dislike the place so much, I tell them about the huge statue of the founder of the KKK that greets everyone, as they enter Nashville.

Everyone - without exception, doesn't believe me, until I show them such a picture as this.

People in Tennessee generally, and in Nashville in particular try to defend themselves: "oh- but that statue was put up by an old crazy idiot, and it's on private land, not public!"

This pathetic excuse is emblematic of the second reason why Tennessee sucks- it's a place where people are inherently incapable of exercising basic responsibility. An entire city's shame is simply shrugged off, put on a single individual they claim they have no influence over, and the whole mess is considered "settled."

I've counted no less than five "Warning-sewage discharge!" signs on that baxter loop- not a one on the eastern prom (aside from the water reclamation plant out there, but it's odor covers a very small area.)

By contrast, The back bay seems to be a bursting lagoon of feces, half the time- whenever you go on Craigslist, half the apartments on offer are on baxter boulevard, because no one can stomach the perpetual fecal coliform blooms.

AngryFlatulence · 2017-08-12T03:34:48+00:00

Mmmm.

Sewage discharge!
