If you buy DVDs new and store them well, they’ll last nearly forever. I buy mostly used and while I’ve seen my fair share of disc rot, my copy of Se7en is so old, the back is basically an ad for the concept of DVD and it plays fine.

9·7 hours agoI had an idea for a sci-fi setting where criminals are held in stasis like Demolition Man or Minority Report except the point isn’t to keep them away from society or rehabilitate them. It’s to rob them of their time in the present assuming that things are only going to bet worse.

5·19 hours agoThat’s not what I’m talking about. Look at Leghorn’s beak. It’s a rigid 3D object rendered in 2D.
Traditional animation requires the artist to reconsider the “3D” aspect of each character in every frame. Things end up a bit more wiggly, but it also allows the artist to inject more personality into the characters. It’s what fundamentally makes them cartoons.

30·1 day agoA little disappointed with the obvious cell-shade CGI. Especially obvious with Foghorn Leghorn. Would have been a nice tribute to the characters to keep them 2D animated.

19·1 day agoReminds me of this.
Insider trading doesn’t make the market more accurate if people are forcing themselves inside.
Because some employers want to see how you attack a problem that has no clear answer.
However, they also don’t ask the question any more because it didn’t correlate with job performance, so take from that what you will.
There is no intended solution. That’s the point.
Well this explains this interview question.
Buy it now and lease it to the store owner.

21·3 days agoI’m surprised someone got an AI to work with the constraints of proper monochrome pixel art.

43·4 days agoPizza place nearby in college had a wrong number listed on their website. Fortunately the site’s header was a photo of the restaurant which included a neon sign of the correct phone number.

33·5 days agoLeft school in Boston. Got a job in Rhode Island. Nine months in and I got bored. Started looking at jobs on Craigslist. Didn’t find anything local. Started scrolling down the cities in the right column. Made it alphabetically down to Seattle. Never been.
Got the job, moved.
Lived here for 15 years. Bought a house, met my wife. Found a place where I feel like I always belonged.
