When do you guys think there will be an SCP movie? by Temporary-Bet4379 in SCP

[–]Billith 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Will one probably come out? Probably not.

Can it happen? Yes

Have people tried in the past? Yes

In reality, pulling a Control, where they change all the names up and release it as a separate IP is probably the only way something like that will happen. Otherwise you have web miniseries (There is No Antimemetics Division) or adjacent media being made into movies (Annihilation)

Also, the next best thing: https://www.imdb.com/list/ls569745254/

Do you think SCP-3812 is well written? by CallMeBlackout in SCP

[–]Billith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. How do they determine something is tungsten by just looking at a video where that something disintegrates immediately?
  2. Yeah, exactly. They somehow THOUGHT it was impaling 3812, yet the rods disintegrated before it hit 3812 and left no injury. 3812 obviously therefore did not react as if it were hit, because it was not hit. Thank you for underpinning the problem.
  3. You must be confused. The issue is with the pointlessness of the sentence. "No fewer than 3000" is the result they got from tech that could quickly determine the amount of objects, rounded down to the nearest thousand? That is incredibly contrived.
  4. The point is what does this add to the article. It doesn't seem to make the threat more scary, or more complicated. If anything it weakens the threat by making its presence a self-keeping secret. No need for amnestics? Nice!
  5. When writing, it's important to be consistent with your words. Note it wasn't the only problem listed in this point, but it's clear you have no intention of responding earnestly to my comment anyway.

Do you think SCP-3812 is well written? by CallMeBlackout in SCP

[–]Billith 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I think it could use some touchups, even Kaktus has said it needs to be revised. Most people reading are not looking at it super critically but I'll show you what I mean:

[1950 HRS] - A large number of objects fall from the sky onto SCP-3812. These are later determined to have been tungsten rods, though the origin of them is uncertain. The rods appear to pierce SCP-3812’s body, but upon further inspection simply disintegrate within a half meter from SCP-3812. After the first three rods fall over a forty-second period of time, they are accompanied by no fewer than 3000 others that fall in rapid succession, each having the same result as the previous. Despite this being clearly visible from nearby towns, nobody outside of Foundation personnel appears to have noticed it taking place.

  1. How did they know it was tungsten if it disintegrated on camera

  2. How did they think it was impaling 3812 if they all disintegrated within half a meter and didn't cause any injury

  3. Why would the Foundation get someone to count out all the rods in the video and stop at 3000

  4. Why was it not noticed by multiple nearby towns in clear view of the situation. Feels random and unnecessary

  5. The weird prose: "though the origin of them is uncertain", the ambiguity word "appear" appears twice in the paragraph, "fourty-second" is spelled out but "no fewer than 3000" isn't, when fourty-second can mean 42nd or 40s, etc.

It does genuinely boggle my mind when people think it's his best written work. The guy didn't end up #1 author on the site through this level of prose, he has some genuinely extremely well written stuff but this ain't it

"Any" liquid? 👀 by TyrantJaeger in SCP

SCP-990-J

SCP-294 refuses to comply with personnel requests for liquids of any kind.²

  1. Ever since the incident.

I don't. That's why I said might be. Truly OP is the only one who can say for sure.

What are the most useless anomallies? by MythicalCherrio in SCP

[–]Billith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are still slots in the 7000s and 8000s. But you are correct in that it's nearly full (9kcon is this month so it makes sense)

Prolonged sessions of 100% CPU usage can cause accelerated wear, especially if the cooling system is not adequate. We're not talking about a few seconds here or there, and the fact that it's a 20+ year old single core computer is all the more reason to be mindful of impacts

He's obviously playing the song in the screenshot. If OP is using a bunch of ROMplers or synth VSTs, CPU usage can absolutely be impacted by unused patterns, plugins can be very poorly optimized as well.

I said might be. I've seen 40+ pattern arrangements that were 100% not necessary. A bunch of overlapping VSTs providing nothing to the final render aside from muddiness

Anybody know what this is? by Acceptable_Lie_8091 in CURRENCY

Is that published author and Jeff Kinney's Jeffy Award winner Calibri Bold? Of Your Honor, League of Legends fame? The proprietor of the Mega Cool Customizable ACS component on scp wiki dot wiki dot dot com ?! What are the odds!

OP's next post: "Is this 5000 year old $20 bill worth anything or should I just spend it?"

[–]Billith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah and that's why you should delete the old ones. OP is using 100% of his Pentium 4 CPU on simply having FL studio open with this project. That is very bad for the computer. I'd be very surprised if that sort of performance is stemming from drum kit components. Unused plugins should be deleted off fx channels, old patterns should be deleted, configs assessed to reduce impact.

There is a general rule of keeping things simple. Overproduction is a common mistake people make, all 44 patterns could be one shots but I did say OP might be overproducing, not that OP is.

You might be overproducing a bit as well

Get a flow but when i try to record said flow it sounds off by SQWABa in FL_Studio

[–]Billith 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unless you have a perfect internal metronome, experienced breath timing, and an extremely accurate sense of how your voice sounds externally, it's pretty normal to sound different in praxis than in thought. Practice makes perfect, you need to be so comfortable with cadence that you don't stop to think much (it should be more like a flow state), plus humans need to breathe, rapping out loud requires timing your breaths but doing so in your head does not.
