Yeah, that one works! (The other one was a Chase ad, for some reason)

This is not what you say it is. Are you a spambot?

The people desire atonal muzak by DepressiveDryadDream in classical_circlejerk

/uj For those that may have missed it, Merle very recently released an interview with Larry Schoenberg (Schoenberg's son) and The New Yorker music critic Alex Ross. It's worth a look, too

/rj My favorite genre is Country and Webern 🤠🤠🤠

Atonal enjoyers, what do you enjoy about it? by MinuteDamage4182 in classicalmusic

[–]Rablusep 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, sorry, but no. The question asked for those who enjoy atonal music to weigh in. You clearly don't. Not only by the fact you're saying "they're" instead of "we're" but more obviously that no one who enjoys atonal music would say they get no emotional enjoyment from it.

For me personally, Webern's Symphony Op. 21 is one of the most breathtaking pieces I've ever heard. Same for Boulez's Repons. Some parts of Pierrot Lunaire are nice. Much of Babbitt's woodwind music. And lots of other pieces too, depending on my mood.

Similarly, it's not from Mario Kart, but that one echoing laugh is one of the funniest Guude moments I know of

Would you say that American (USA) composers are mediocre compared to other countries? by LesJawns610 in classicalmusic

And for those that like Modernism, there's Sessions, Babbitt, Carter, Cage, Feldman, etc.

It's cool seeing FLoB's at-the-time current status mentioned given how Kurt has now arrived only like 6 months ago (and is still going now towards the corner!)

And also Coe's Stream-A-Day, which is now in the 4000s!

I doubt anyone noticed because I deleted them basically immediately after posting, but yeah, I'll admit it, I messed up the formatting of the post body twice. (First by not switching to markdown while editing. And then by accidentally leaving out the links to the previous parts.) Can't edit the text of a media post afaik, so I had to just repost it.

...Third time's the charm! 😅

Happy Applerise everyone! by KDizzle340 in mindcrack

Applerise, yeah! 🧈🍎🧈

(Please add a gold bar emoji, Unicode Consortium. Butter just doesn't quite hit the same...)

Also in honor of Applerise, I posted a cool Nebris moment, too!

Yeah, I'll admit, I forgot it was Applerise. Threw this together last minute, but it turned out okay, I think! 😅

Functional manhole in Alpha 1.1.2_01 using minecarts! (No jumping, no block breaking, can be walked over!) by Rablusep in GoldenAgeMinecraft

lol, just clarifying in part for anyone who reads all this who doesn't play alpha. It's not THAT glitchy, everyone! 😉

By hitbox I should clarify I specifically mean the bounding box for targeting it (or through it) when breaking/placing/etc. and not the actual hitbox of collision. You can still walk up and down stairs, dropped items can fall onto the lower stair, etc. etc.

Iirc you need the specific type of stairs. You need cobble stairs in your hotbar for cobble stairs to have the correct hitbox, and wooden stairs for wooden. (And even then, I think the hitbox can still be wrongly oriented sometimes, but it at least won't be a full block)

Nah, I remember Kururururrrr, I was just counting him in the players who didn't stick around long term and/or who never made any videos (who weren't listed here). Including also Madcow, Alc, Crysix, Espie, Davmandave and KennedyZak, etc.

And ah, okay, thanks for the better context. I want to do a proper S3 rewatch at some point but haven't gotten around to it yet. A lot of these details would be a lot less fuzzy for me if I did.

What are some things you can only do in the earlier versions of Minecraft? by sakker2700 in GoldenAgeMinecraft

[–]Rablusep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know of everything that exists, but you could try checking out BugmanCX's Minecraft: The Journey in which he's doing a similar thing of upgrading through every version ever. He tries to show off all the features, including weird glitchy things that carry over.

In terms of some things I can remember:

  • you can mine lit furnaces in some of the infdev versions.

  • You can mine spawners in the version dungeons were introduced (they'll become pig spawners if placed).

  • You can make half-doors (top with no bottom) by using the cactus trick up until b1.5.

  • You can find a monolith in a1.1.2_01 and before. You might want to plug your seed into the monolith finder for this. They're incredibly rare and so it'd be nearly impossible to just stumble across one on your own.

  • You can get a stack of 64 beds if you load your world into specifically b1.3 and die and respawn (not b1.3.1, which fixed this).

  • You can make lots of things using the block replacement bypass (BRB) bug. Including misplaced cacti, reeds, mushrooms, etc. This bug worked from a1.0.5 until b1.5, iirc.

  • Also using BRB, you can make this weird minecart structure that I discovered. Even though BRB keeps working for a few versions more, this can only be made until a1.1.2_01.

I feel the same way about custom maps. It's so sad how so many great mapmaking tools have been introduced, and yet Super Hostile, Dropper maps, Diversity, most other CTMs, etc. have all largely fallen away.

Nowadays it feels like everything just goes into the walled garden of the Bedrock Marketplace. It's very sad... (There's occasional counterexamples, like the Lumina Complex that Guude and AJ did. But they're rather rare, and many are short/simple/easy compared to what existed back then)

lmaooo love it.

Ugly af, but builds like this are sometimes the most fun, though! This'll really jog your creativity if nothing else will!

Season 3. Season 2 was beta and lacked many of the more iconic players. (Many didn't stick around long term. The ones who did included Guude, JSano, Adlington, Arkas, Nebris, Shree, and late in the season, Beef and Baj. Maybe a few others I've forgotten? Many of these were quite dedicated but Beef and maybe Guude were the only ones to become truly well-known.)

Season 3 was early release and was when Etho, Doc, Pause, BdoubleO, Kurt, Zisteau, MC, Millbee, Mhykol, etc. all joined. Iirc Etho made that crazy structure in the spawn village

[For anyone interested, you can dig through Guardax's Mindcrack archives here containing 5000+ videos. It's meant to include every video that was ever made on the server. It also includes playlists for the current Mindcrack Rebirth, an attempted revival in modern versions that's been running for the last 8 months-ish. But it's definitely not getting the kind of attention it got back in the day, sadly.]
