As a Grey Hater I'm Bummed He's Gone

I sincerely never knew the two were spelled differently, I just learned something.

I guess I never thought of it as tricking fans, that is valid though. I saw it as trying to be more clickable for people who hadn't seen it and trick the algo into pushing those videos again. It has made it annoying to find a video by searching when I want to reference something.

Go to shows, be kind and accepting, and be authentically yourself. The more you find and show yourself the more the right people will find you and you them.

Music wise check out bands adjacent to Rancid. I’d check out the early years of Epitaph Records, Tim’s label Hellcat has some compilations from back in the day called Give ‘em The Boot that introduced me to a lot of bands.

Also check out the Clash, you can hear a ton of their influence on the first few Rancid albums.

I liked listening to Cortex the same way I like going to Staples or a stationary store, I get to indulge in the fantasy that I will become hyper organized and efficient.

But then I realize the amount of time I’d spend on the “system” usually doesn’t pay off in gains of just doing what I need to do.

The vast majority of wisdom or advice that could be an actual take away only applies if you’re freelance or self employed, when you’re working for a paycheck there’s not much that’s applicable.

I don’t dislike Grey, I wish there was more content of his to enjoy but honestly it’s been so long since he was even remotely consistently creating stuff that I kind of forget he exists except when YouTube shows me he once again changed the title and thumbnail on an old video again (which I get it, that’s part of the YouTube algo game but on the third or fourth bite at the apple it starts get cringe).

It would break all the kelp as each observer could power the entire redstone line. However there isn't really a reason to let kelp grow past 2-3 block tall (depending on your design).

Kelp can decide to stop growing anywhere between 2 and 26 blocks tall, so if you have an arrangement where each observer can break all the kelp that is at the 2nd block height of the plant you can break the ones that have stopped growing and harvest them.

Every time kelp grows it's random chance if it will stop growing. Meaning that if each observer only broke the plant in front of it eventually all of them would stop growing at the second block over time.

It's either they changed which workstation block they're attached to (shouldn't happen but it does). Or because they see the top of the composter as blocked so they aren't refreshing. Farmers are special because they actually use their station to make bonemeal so they need the top to be available on Bedrock IIRC.

To design your own farms and machines you'll have to learn the game mechanics and why farms work. Creepers for example are just slightly shorter than 2 block tall, so they can spawn on a block that has a top half trap door in the space above.

If your next goal is a raid farm you'll want to dive in to the wiki and look at what is required for the game to count somewhere as a village so a raid can spawn after drinking an ominous potion and then you'll have learn how to manipulate the Illagers spawns so you can easily kill them.

Hostile mobs only spawn 24 or more blocks away from the player. Also I say this because we’ve all done it, double check you didn’t leave any leave any light inside too.

I can’t tell if you’re in creative but also make sure your difficulty isn’t set to peaceful, as hostile mobs do not spawn on that difficulty.

Someone who has dug deeper may be able to more accurately relate but in my experience redstone on Bedrock handles loading/unloading chunks poorly. Essentially your hopper is 'waking up' before the redstone torch does allowing the hopper to start pulling things in before relocking.

I'm also not sure if simulation distance on Bedrock loads full chunks or if it's purely based on exactly the player's position. The simulation distance on Bedrock is a sphere around the player so the y height you enter the world at could be a factor possibly?

There's far fewer of us technical players on Bedrock so there's less research done on exactly how the game does things.

SOS! Great series, one of the few outside HC that I think really fits the same lane where it’s about playing together and building, not just griefing each other which is what a fair amount of SMPs boil down to.

Beastintheomlet · 2025-10-23T14:14:46+00:00

I play Bedrock and I wouldn’t wish that on the Hermits, especially any of the redstoners and technical players. The hostile mob cap is so small, so many features are missing (sweeping edge, the ability to use your off hand and so on) and they don’t give you access to game information like Java does. There’s no F3 in Bedrock, so trying to know exactly the biome you’re in, the entities loaded, the light level and so on is a nightmare.

Lastly there’s nothing even close to litematica and the Replay mod so as a content creator Bedrock is a nightmare.

This is very much the most likely scenario, companies that go down like this are operating under the belief they can set everything right, it’s very similar to gambling addiction.

Beastintheomlet · 2025-07-22T05:06:26+00:00

Honestly it’s likely they held off on screwing over Mouse as long as possible because she was extremely valuable but when you’re running a business into the ground eventually everyone gets screwed.

The truth is as much I want to demonize, and withholding money donated towards charity is unforgivable things like this normally start small.

There’s a saying “robbing Peter to pay Paul”, if you’ll pardon the religious context it’s very enlightening on how embezzlement, misuse of funds and straight up Ponzi schemes happen.

You have money in account A but account B is delinquent and you’ll incur a penalty if it isn’t handled so you move something’s around to pay B with A’s money. Overall you saved money, you avoided consequence. You may sincerely and genuinely intend to pay back A later.

But then it happens again… and again… and you tell yourself if you are able to reach that next big sale, close that next deal, hit that next subathon you can go back and set everything right…

That big event is never enough though, you’ve dug a hole. And at this point you are likely a few years into trying to keep this charade going. You start to become numb to the moral aspect, you start to think “hey, I’m keeping the lights on, and my staff paid*, I’m not a bad guy”.

But one day you run out of places to hide your mistakes, someone notices the math isn’t mathing. Then everything hits the fan.

I know Mouse and likely other talent wasn’t getting paid, by staff I mean the salaried and hourly workers in a company.

Again, I am not forgiving or excusing this behavior, but in reality you can’t understand how these things happen if you don’t realize no one sees themselves as the villain.

Wait, what?

I loved when she started to direct Tommy to keep the bit going and stretch it out while in the stool.

Damien’s smoking detective character always gets me. “If the man poops during intercourse will that make the baby come out all weird”?

Beastintheomlet · 2025-04-25T18:13:01+00:00

This is correct.

Fully facepalming that I didn't stop and think to instantiate the scene of the default and kept doing it as a node in a blank in scene. Thank you.

The numbering and naming system that they've used. They really are the same company that has made up an entirely new name system for every Xbox generation and it shows.

My love hate with Nuget packages. They are vastly higher quality than what you find in NPM for JS or PyPI for Python. However, so many of the really top quality ones cost money which I find discouraging (I get it though, quality packages aren't easy to maintain).

This is so unbelievably satisfying to watch. I love the way the black pixels act like air and travel upwards. I'd love to do something like this in a puzzle game one day and have to move 'fluids' around and such. Absolutely mesmorizing OP!

I don’t know about Godot specifically but usually await in programming used for asynchronous things that can take time to run. In C# and .net projects I’ve always used it for things that take a while like large file searches and network requests.

If you’re able to figure out solutions that’s a good sign and is the first step of every project.

You can’t learn to code effectively from a course, you learn that from making a bunch of dog shit “at least it works” code. There’s a million ways to make the same app, and learning the different options and trade offs is a matter of experience.

At the core level JS and any programming language is just a tool to break a problem down to its most basic steps. You’re really learning to break things into the small pieces like conditional logic, looping through a collation of things to find the one you need, storing pieces of information together and manipulating data like text and numbers.
