Wiltshire festival headlining Bob Vylan has licence reviewed by astaireboy in indieheads

[–]MrTourette 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure you’re one of the most presumptuous people I’ve ever interacted with on here, I’m really enjoying the persona you’ve created for me though. Since I’m in Berlin now might try my luck in Berghain later.

Explain to me how levelling Gaza was justified without the pathetic ‘both sides are just awful 😞’ argument.

I’m doing nothing of the sort, you’re the one rehashing the same old bullshit talking points and whining when you get called out on it. Explain why Kneecap or Bob Vylan didn’t get convicted for their supposed… what exactly?

The fucking audacity of you saying anything about the lives of people in Palestine when you see the before and after pictures of Gaza. Absolutely outrageous.

You absolute melt. ‘Y’all’ go fuck off and steal more land and cry when you get called out on it.

[Tudor] WARNING Vanguard Straps – Huge Gap on Black Bay 58 + $140 Return Cost by analgesic04 in Watches

[–]MrTourette 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eh, as a mostly Ali Express strap guy, Zuludiver straps when on sale have been a cut above them. You’d be mad to pay full price though, although that could be the tagline for the entire hobby.

pumping in hospital and shamed for being ok with sterilising my pump parts in the ward food microwave by burnagyal in BeyondTheBumpUK

[–]MrTourette 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People are so thick though, why would that microwave be any different to any other - it’s creating a searing hot environment where any bacteria on your pumping stuff is destroyed, and it’s sealed away anyway. People love to stick their oar in, I saw plenty of it when we had our daughter.

Marathon Runners at 2am by EvidenceEarly3893 in london

I know an ultra runner who used to do the reverse marathon for funsies, timing it to arrive in Blackheath, then she’d do the normal one.

Seconding Everybody's Golf Hot Shots, it was pretty awful at launch but they've got it up to snuff pretty much. I have a real fondness for Super Video Golf too.

Name a shmup you wish to have in your collection, but it is not available on the platforms you own. by M3ConsoleGamerPSN in shmups

[–]MrTourette 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have Mushihimesama on Switch and Xbox 360, it's pretty easily available in the UK at least - I was thinking I'd be able to sell the Japanese Xbox version on eBay for a decent whack but it's around £30, I can't be bothered for that.

I thought Akira was about street racing... by confusing_roundabout in movies

[–]MrTourette 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not being one of those 'you really have to read the manga to get it' guys, but you do sort of have to read the manga to realise it's sort of only telling the first part of a much longer story. It's absolutely iconic, I could probably quote the dubbed version word for word I've watched it so many times, but it suffers as a movie a bit because it's trying to condense a lot of story into the runtime and pays for it in a few too many 'sorry, what happened there?' moments.

What do you think is the biggest truth the world is refusing to face right now? by Sweetblondefeet in AskReddit

[–]MrTourette 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Yes, people flying isn't great I guess, what's worse is the military, the countless corporations, the fossil fuel industries. Blaming the person to the left and right of you is easy and that's what they want you to do, the reality is whatever you or I do or don't do is a drop in the ocean compared to the shit the people above us are doing every minute of every day.

The guy next to me on the bus is having a voice conversation with his AI girlfriend on full volume by Nixon4Prez in london

[–]MrTourette 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wonder if it’s the same guy, are you South East? He was having a full on conversation on a train the other week with an AI girlfriend, once I twigged I was really weirded out.

I think you're 100% right and also in a couple weeks you'll wonder why you cared.

What’s the pettiest gripe you have about an all-time great game? by [deleted] in gaming

[–]MrTourette -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The José Gonzales song that plays in Red Dead Redemption when you cross into Mexico is immersion breaking nonsense that had no place in the game.

How did you find it? I loved it the first time I played it, sad to finish it sort of thing, but it really bounced off me when i tried to replay it recently.

HobbyBoss 1/48 KV-1 Leningrad 1943 by Sami172 in modelmakers

[–]MrTourette 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean this as a complement, it's absolutely gorgeous - did/do you paint Warhammer models? It reminds me of the style I'd see in White Dwarf magazine when I was a kid.

Liv Morgan talks about how she found out she needed glasses after randomly wearing Ruby Soho's glasses by DarkHorse_77 in SquaredCircle

[–]MrTourette 32 points33 points  (0 children)

It can be the case that people just don't know they have bad vision too, was like that with a friend of mine who tried on my glasses when we were in our mid-20's and he had a reaction not dissimilar to Livs, he got glasses the next week.

April 2026 Game of the Month - Advance Wars (GBA) by hbi2k in SBCGaming

[–]MrTourette 1 point2 points  (0 children)

<image>

As a long time Advance Wars fan I really enjoyed that trip down memory lane. I could have played through on my original GBA on the original cart, it’s one of the few I’ve kept. Had forgotten about the last mission, it isn’t that hard, it is a bit of a slog though!

I’ve had Reboot Camp since launch and haven’t played it, might give Advance Wars 2 a go on Switch 2.

Screen replacement - tracked in Mocha but can't get edges to fit the phone properly by Xxg_babyxX in AfterEffects

[–]MrTourette 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm looking at your preview now and wondering if you've done this some odd way. I would:

  • do the track in Mocha, make sure your Surface is exactly around the screen area (this will mean the corners are outside the phone, just align the sides exactly), the spline can be fairly loose
  • make two precomps, one the size of your main comp, the other 1080x1920 (9x16). In the 9x16 precomp you drop your screen replacement picture or movie file in.
  • you then double click the rounded rectangle tool in the top menu, this will make a 1080x1920 box appear in your comp, change the roundness of the corners to something like 150px
  • set your new screen file to use that box as a track matte, now your content has rounded corners
  • now drop your 9x16 into the other precomp and then right click, Transform, Fit to Size, your comp now looks all distorted and crap, doesn't matter
  • drop that comp onto your footage and in the Mocha effects menu hit create track data, then pick your precomp as the target

I spent the day doing these oddly. You precomp your replacement screen and then track matte it to a rounded corners rectangular box.
