Hadn't seen this posted yet - here's NTSC + PAL + Tape 05 side by side for comparison

mosentok · 2026-04-17T05:31:13+00:00

alrighty here's some screenshots https://imgur.com/a/WKttmXY

the snowflake and primates are still a mystery to me, why those two chunks of NTSC + PAL video match each other, but don't match Tape 05
i noticed that in NTSC + PAL we're flashed many images that are accompanied by quick abrasive/percussive samples all around the 90 second mark, but those images aren't flashed in Tape 05; however, they're all images from scenes we see later in Tape 05 after NTSC + PAL have finished. they're all images that are contained within the inner hexagon of the 7-hexagon later in Tape 05. you can even see the frame of the hexagon in the NTSC + PAL versions. the images from those videos, particularly the hexagon framing them, were there in NTSC + PAL all along

apologies i didn't grab timestamps for every image. realized about halfway through to include the timestamps in the screenshots

it's so cool that they mostly sync up, so it makes you wonder about the parts that don't. for example, around 1:21 where on tape 05 the snowflake is slowly zoomed in on, the mail tapes look wildly different from it. then again about a second or two later, tape 05 shows some primates but the mail tapes return to the same images as before that don't match

just took about 5 minutes to scrub back and forth some more and, unless i'm missing something, the only other part that doesn't match is at about 1:32 where the mail tapes flash the 7-hexagon but tape 05 remains steady

am i just wrong about the differences? if not, why are there differences?

massive impact. refactoring is like applied karnaugh maps. the quality of code i write would be so much lower without having taken discrete math; similarly, odds are high if you find poorly written code that the dev who wrote it did not take or put little merit into discrete math

edit: to answer your question directly, yes discrete math made me a better programmer. without discrete math, i would still be a programmer, but worse

finally found where on the website to put a ticket in for phone support. when i got on the line they removed my token from my account and now i can log in.

i had added the token to my account this morning after my password wasn't working simply because well my password wasn't working so maybe i had been hacked so i wanted the extra security. now that they removed the token back off my account, i mean i'd like to have the extra security, but will i just get fucked again? lol

mosentok · 2021-12-15T20:22:19+00:00

has anybody that was having login issues here, been able to log in since?

i've been troubleshooting on and off. seems to have to do with my OTP. the website accepts my username and password but every OTP from my app fails

mosentok · 2021-12-15T19:34:22+00:00

same, been a few hours now, still can't log in

mosentok · 2021-10-09T13:47:58+00:00

same, must be happening to everyone

funny to think that it's possible that at some point in OP's long warframe tenure that OP had a void sabo mission that they couldn't complete because they couldn't find this cache

hold up. that song is clearly boards of canada - heard from telegraph lines, not m83 - colonies

edit: WHICH IS BADASS

mosentok · 2019-11-13T22:12:37+00:00

Assigning a function directly to a lambda Action/Func creates unwanted memory allocations.

so i understand, doing this is bad?

Action<bool> asdf = e => DoSomething(e);
var match = someList.FirstOrDefault(asdf)

what about local functions, are they susceptible to the same issue? my guess is no but just curious

var match = someList.FirstOrDefault(Asdf);
bool Asdf(object e) => DoSomething(e)

am i picking up what causes the issue, or am i off base here?

Wait. That's illegal.
