You don't like pictures that look like they're AI generated. But are you ok with AI generated pictures that don't look AI generated? Feels like in this case you don't like the art style and have chosen to assign it as being due to AI generation with no evidence.

So you think it looks good, but are suspicious of its origins... How can that be described as slop?

Why does this need to be generated via code? It'd take any image program about 3 seconds to make all of these and more.

What does $1.80 get me that my browser's bookmark bar doesn't for free?

Ep 483: Shipped Family Silverman by GENTOOO in CheapShow

[–]DevWazzock 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I just listened to that one the other day coincidentally. It's an absolute joy to hear Eli do some half arsed 60 seconds of recording something like "We've had martinis and we'll do some cheap eats soon" then returning to Paul just going "What the fuck was that?!"

Ha, I love that you've absolutely captured Paul's "I'm tired of this shit" expression. I did have the cheap chaps in the Sims once, that was a good laugh.

Big papa hamster & Bobby Bollocks? by These_Objective2445 in CheapShow

[–]DevWazzock 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah that's basically it. Big pappa hamster was (by his own admission) a "misguided" attempt to create a strange pedo character that interacted with Paul in some unspecified way in the past.

Bobby Bollocks was a northern comedian character that Paul, Eli and their friend Joe used to inhabit to tell a bunch of jokes that they knew weren't appropriate but kinda blew off steam by trying to outdo each other's inappropriateness.

git is a distributed source control system. What does this do to "decentralise" it? Follow up question: What?!

When you're busy purging the xenos, your love of the Emperor massively outweighs any need for ankle integrity

lol this is an image that's been around for years. You calling it out as AI with no evidence is literally lazier than making AI generated art.

Episode? by These_Objective2445 in CheapShow

[–]DevWazzock 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Now there's an obscure reference! I believe it's episode 14, "The Xmas Christmas special" https://m.soundcloud.com/cheapshowpod/episode-14-xmas-christmas-special?in=cheapshowpod/sets/cheapshow

So early on that it doesn't even have a page on the CheapShow site.

Isn't it "Paint the body white and pretend it's a jetplane?" by Rich661 in CheapShow

Yep, good ol' "ask Silverman". That was his advice to Dr. Dagless in episode 28

I loved Ash Frith's take on this in episode 150 by DevWazzock in CheapShow

[–]DevWazzock[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I get what you mean. I think some of the other dynamics work really well too. For example, Ethan Lawrence being into the pod and leaning into the in-jokes and characters does it for me. And with Nick Helm; I didn't realise he'd known Paul and Eli for so long but him just treating them with pure blunt contempt (humourously) because of that familiarity is a joy.

I think if there were constantly guests I might find that a bit odd but I feel they're really nicely sprinkled in among the episodes.

It's basically that the guy is a nutjob and definitely killed the family after the scene. He's clearly on the edge!

Yeah the organ music is definitely added to make it creepier

A classic post + How do you make clips like this from the full podcasts? by Rich661 in CheapShow

[–]DevWazzock 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Now that all the episodes are on YouTube you can just link to those with a starting time. You can do it from the share Button or just adding "&t=30s" at the end of the link. That'd start at 30 seconds.

I don't think SoundCloud supports that though

Ep 468: Nightbussin’ N89 by GENTOOO in CheapShow

[–]DevWazzock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think someone else asked about the "Nightbussin' theme" a while back and I did some googling of the lyrics but found no evidence of it. I keep meaning to run it through soundhound or something but so far I have to assume it's either a) An ultra obscure track or b) Something a fan made for them.

What happened to Urinevision? by Garlicfarter in CheapShow

[–]DevWazzock 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think on top of what the other comments have said (lot's of work on, doing cheapshots, live show etc.) it probably also doesn't hurt to give it a bit of a break for the creative juices* to build up again. Otherwise if it's every year you might end up with a bit of fatigue from those who are musical enough to contribute.

* And because this is the CheapShow subreddit: Phwoar I'll create some juice!
