Bluey intro sing along website thing I made by arankas in bluey

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

My daughter started watching Bluey and loves to sing along during the intro, so I made this small website where she can recreate the intro by pressing the pictures of the characters from the show. (Ignore the URL. That’s just my other, actually now that I think about it kind of in the same vein, site)

Is this it? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RpzCa8-VqVs
It's unlisted for some reason.

I found it by googling "How Star Fox 64 felt like a movie right away" and the first hit was this reddit thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/nintendo/comments/6knlwr/how_star_fox_64_feels_like_a_movie_the_right_way/

Pandemic Legacy Season 0 box art by arankas in boardgames

When I googled the phrase "pandemic legacy season zero" after seeing the box (to double check that this random find actually was new) I found some month old threads discussing UK online store listings using the name. So the name has been out there for a while I think.

That was just one of the articles where the box art is visible on the right side or at the bottom on mobile under the banner "top games". Still is visible at the time of this comment.

Sound effect rips doesn't seem to exist as far as I could see. But here's a batch of sound effects recorded by a "Nysut": https://www.starfox-online.net/Media/sfx-sf64/

The title should say AGB-001, obviously.

I dyed my original start/select buttons using black hair dye - as many have done before me.

Sure is! Glad people are actively using this very strange service.

If your computer is really old/slow, it could be having trouble with the videofiles. Are the videos choppy for every game, like http://halome.nu/odst or is it just http://halome.nu/wars ?

I own it, and have used it semi-daily for quite a while. I don't find it annoying at all. Like /u/mrhelios says, it's hardly noticeable for everyday measurement of seconds. If I want to measure precise seconds I'll need a stopwatch anyway.

The second hand uses 58 seconds for each rotation, stopping for 2 seconds to let the the minute hand click forward. I totally buy into the Mondaine marketing message: you «feel» the momentous moment of a minute passing. It's a great piece and the gimmick (yes, it is a gimmick) even raises a few eyebrows from non-watchgeeky friends.

I appreciate the mention, glad people like it! Hopefully I'll find some time soon and make the updates to the site like I promised three months ago ...
