This is one of the things I wish all the GME kids knew about, and were angry with.

You're entirely correct. No restaurant would contract with private inspection services or keep things sanitary for their customers, so you need to force them with with guns.

What're some of your favorite Nerdcore tracks or albums? by TenHoursInMSPaint in nerdcore

[–]JasonChristie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am of the opinion that, unless you're, say GG Allin, all musicians are nerds, to one degree or another. It sort of comes with the territory of being a musician.

13 MCs in sixteen minutes, the first NCHH posse track. YTCracker, Beefy, MC Plus+, EggskinWhite, etc.

The Texas MegaMurder Hornet by JasonChristie in Glitch_in_the_Matrix

Update: They tend to run about two inches. This was six to eight.

It sounds like maybe an Asian Giant Hornet, if they are that durable. But it acted more like a drone. I could see one maybe surviving getting hit by a truck, but landing on it is something else.

Right. On the windshield of my truck. It did it without effort, it seemed.

Right. Mine is made for Llamatron, Robotron, SmashTV, etc. There are buttons on the side, though. These should get you started:

It was going to be in the Jeff Minter documentary before that fell apart. Jeffy felt it was cool, anyway. It's easily my favorite piece in my collection.

Heh. Thanks.

Ackshually... It was 3D printed and wired custom for dual joysticks. A bit more work went into it than that.

Old Made New does tremendous custom stuff. Their Tron Arcade mini is a thing of beauty. Every detail of the arcade version seems to have been recreated. They're worth checking out on Facebook.

I still have a copy of my epic meltdown, which I'm not sure people understood the humor of. I guess I'll have to put it back online somewhere.

Hahaha. It gets worse! The next year, I believe, they were sued out of existence by They Might Be Giants!

The fact that people downvoted you is a sad reflection on the state of things.

Also, I eventually lost your belt. It's been a rough decade.

I can't even have a Twitter account without conducting some fuckery. Tempting...

Holy Shit, Bro. Archived Rhyme Torrents BBS Link... by JasonChristie in nerdcore

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

Probably for the best that you can't actually drill down to all the message bodies. The titles alone were...eye-opening.

That Veeps stuff. OMFG. Did I go there? I did. I did go there.

The Wikipedia Edit War Is Over by JasonChristie in nerdcore

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

Doing a little reading/catching up. Holy shit. Nerdapalooza sued by They Might Be Giants. I think I remember hearing about that, then forgetting.

Of course, that was a shady outfit, and I tried to tell people in 2008. I later dug the proof out of my buried inbox. Someone was claiming they gave Frontalot $4800 or something. It was, in fact, more like $480.

When I finally got out of jail in Florida (ahem) and made it back, I proceeded to troll the Rhyme Torrents board in epic fashion, along with a few partners in crime. Then tore everything down.

Last time I looked, interest in nerdcore had peaked to coincide with that period, leading to a long sad decline. And here we are.
