I am zzzzonked the fuck out eating a pickle. All I could think of was eheh, pinkle

[beesmygod]

last night adam and i watched a video on youtube explaining which smash character have canonically played instruments and i got SOOOOO mad because she said pacman doesnt play an instrument WHEN WE ALL KNOW that in pacman 2 the new adventures, pacman goes into an instrument store and plays the piano and you can make him have a mental illness moment with the drums

this was recorded 12 years ago so its ass but you can clearly see his crime

📻 “It’s your summertime magic, make me feel this way. Got me boo’d up. Girl, oh, you’re my world - baby girl my whole world. You feel like summertime, you took this heart of mine.”

Hawkins, Indiana: 80 degrees and sunny all summer long - perfect for falling in love. With a newly renovated downtown, there’s plenty of opportunities for stolen kisses, loud arguments over miscommunication, and grossly public displays of affection.

You’ll be able to visit Holland’s - the new record store and coffee shop where Robin can tell you why your taste in music is a bit pedestrian but she’ll make you a mean latte while she does. I hear when the sun goes down, her drink making skills get even better.

If you’re looking for something a bit more active, Hawkins now has it’s very own roller rink. There’s this grumpy employee, Eddie, but he’s all bark with no bite - you’ll have fun…for awhile.

And then of course, no hot day is complete without a Summer blockbuster! Steve will make sure the PacMan machine doesn’t eat your coins and your cherry slurpee never reaches lower than halfway down the cup, and on Wednesdays, you can watch him interact with all of the kids for free movies in the park - try not to melt like the popsicles he’s handing out.

*Set during the same summer. While you’re the reader in all of them, these are three separate stories. All will contain smut and therefore 18+ get out of here minors!

Hey so it is like,,, six in the morning rn and I am having thoughts,,,,

Anyway, what if... Ralph Bohner podcast? Like, yk how DC has those podcasts? Yeah, I'm talking something like that.

And it's like, three 20 minute long episodes of Ralph/Evan Peters bullshitting on the mic and rambling nonsense, plus him trying to hype up his one-man show.

And the jokes? You could do one where he's like, "Okay, so for this episode, I really TRIED to get a special guest, but, uh..."

[Sound bite: him trying to talk to multiple heroes, recorded outside on a shitty dictaphone. He tries to get Dr. Strange, tries to talk with Thor, and various other magic based heroes]

"...no luck"

Also, he talks about his time in the hex, and his experiences. And how to deal with witches (coming with sources like, "according to [xyz] by [author mcauthorson], it is [abc]".

All the while, he says things that maaaaybe don't add up for Ralph. Like, he mixes up birthdays and birth years, but maybe that could be because of his witsec shit. Or, maybe...

"I lived in my Mom's basement until I was 27" "I can beat pacman in, like... seconds" "my dad is a total fucking asshole"

And in the last episode, he says something like, "if I had a nickel for every time some magic redhead fucked with my brain, I'd have two nickels. Wait... two? Yeah... Wanda, and... and..."

And then a glitchy/staticy sound. And then:-

"Peter-?" An unfamiliar voice. "What are you doing in there?"

"Hm? Oh, sorry, Jean, I was just, uh... doesn't matter, not important..."

And then the recording ends.

[contentfarms]

i'm new here so i'm sorry if you've been asked this before but is there any genre of content farm you dislike? also do you prefer to watch content farm videos involving media you're actively into or will you watch things even if you're not familiar with the media being farmed for content?

ooooh no i haven't really actually! these are good questions thank you!!

this got long so

first question:

cute animal posting farms on social media. that genre of content farm actively enables and performs animal endangerment, abuse, and cruelty for viral content. go on one and watch for a small prey animal interacting with a dog or cat, or a reptile slumped forward as if sitting up straight, a "rescue", etc.

i do not like them, i REFUSE to watch them because i do not want to give them even my adblocked clicks. there is a subgenre of youtube channels that own pacman frogs, snakes or other large meat-eating herps for the sole purpose of feeding them assorted live animals and record it. these are content farms that are actively committing animal cruelty and absolutely sadistic shit at that. they make me sick.

second question:

this is a really fun qurestion because the answer is... uh. BOTH! because my other special interest that is a media is a manga that has a youtube anime content farm adaptation, and another sp/in that's the specific animation company behind that content farm and several other youtube anime content farms

and i went so long watching digital circus content farms without seeing the actual shwo that my friends started begging me to just watch it

also one of my friends was just. being psychologically tormented by the fact i was watching HHMC without having seen the actual hazbin series. the reasons for that are 1. i can't fucking stand alastor but he's pretty funny in HHMC, 2. it's in general funnier than the show is

i got off track i had to cut a large rant about why alastor as a character pisses me off

[kaonarvna]

We've had the frogs for a month or so now——they're doing well, eating well, pooping well. We keep crickets and dubias now, and they eat them both happily, for the most part.

One of the frogs hates the tongs, so I often have to pop on a glove to offer bugs by hand. One of them croaks to recordings of other frogs, and to a song that has pacman "wakawakawaka" sounds in it. That frog has also developed little nuptial pads. We've got at least one boy.

The crickets seem to recognise me. They hide under the egg cartons as soon as I enter the room. They don't do the same for my spouse, who doesn't feed the frogs at the moment. They seem to know that I'm the reason their numbers go down every other day. I try not to feel bad about the fear they show towards me. I am, after all, presenting them straight to the mouths of predators. They know. They're little, but they're not dumb.

Please Im begging you listen to this god awful licensed pacman song

The Lotus Casino

This is a continuation of the last C.J thing I wrote!! Forgive the uncreative name lol

⚠️ heavy sa, alcohol, and abusive parents tw. I'll put a warning before the sa as well if you want to read up to that point

@cabin-12-resident-daddy-issues @dawn-lovelace @dionysus-god-of-all-things-wine

Las Vegas, 1989

C.J had never been so grateful for pocket money

It'd been two days now since his mother kicked him out onto the streets of Vegas, and he was living on benches and convenience store snacks

His stomach grumbled and he only had a couple bucks left, and dark clouds were starting to cover the sky

Just his luck. He was barely scratching the surface on getting the hang of this whole street rat thing, and it was going to rain

He didn't know if he should call the cops or not. If he did they'd probably take him back to his family, who no doubt all hated him by now

He knew his mother would tell his father and siblings what he'd done. In fact, she'd probably play it up so that they all thought he'd done something far worse than kissing with that boy

And even if he wanted to call the police, he wasn't about to waste his ever diminishing food money on a payphone call

He wandered around, his eyes perpetually puffy from all his crying the past few days

And eventually he saw his salvation, a casino

They let kids in those places, right? It was a building with a roof, and probably food, and if he knew one thing it's that his mother would have his head for ever stepping foot in a casino

That being said, it was perfect

He could hear music blaring as he walked up to the door. He took a deep breath and pushed the door open and was immediately blasted with music so loud he almost took his hearing aids out

'All I know is that to me, you look like you're lots of fun'

'Open up your lovin' arms, watch out here I come'

He stepped inside, letting the door swing closed behind him. People were dancing and drinking, playing video games and having the times of their lives

He saw a woman in what looked like a 1920s flapper dress, dancing her heart out as the radio chanted a near hypnotic chorus of 'you spin me right round baby, right round, like a record baby round round round round'

His mouth was agape as lights flashed and music blared, and a girl a little younger than him ran by, her skirt flowing behind her as she was closely followed by an even younger boy who was yelling "Bianca! Slow down!"

The array of video games caught his eye, and so that's where he went first

By the time he'd beat a few rounds of a pacman game his head felt fuzzy. He moved onto the next game, then the next, and the next after that

He was damn good at this, but he was starting to feel...weird, to say the least. His brain felt foggy, like he was just waking up from a really good nap

He looked over at the pacman game. Had he played that already? Some other kid was working on beating a level on it now, and he wanted to give them a pointer, but for some reason he couldn't remember what he wanted to say

He decided to walk around some more, and hopefully clear his head. He was horribly confused by the time he reached a bar, where he sat down at a barstool

He didn't feel good, and he needed to sit down and shake some sense into himself

"Your name is Cooper, but you like to be called C.J" he whispered to himself, the way he always did when he was convincing himself that a scary dream or some horrible monster he saw out of the corner of his eye wasn't real "You're fourteen years old, and you're safe"

Was he really safe, though?

Just as he was reciting his little affirmations, the bartender handed him a drink

He was so consumed in his thoughts that he didn't even think before chugging it, wincing at the taste

Gods, what had come over him?

But, it didn't stop him from doing it again minutes later, when he'd forgotten that he'd already chugged one

He got up from the stool, stumbling a little as he tried to walk away. He was dizzy as hell, and he hadn't realized how gross his stomach felt until now

Soon, the combination of the lotus and the alcohol took him over, and he couldn't remember why he was here, or what he was doing

He wound up playing the same video games over and over, walking around the casino in giggling fits as everything was funny to him in this state

The effects of the lotus were like nothing he'd ever felt before. He probably wouldn't be able to tell you his own name if you asked him, and he didn't recognize songs on the radio that he'd heard a million times

Days, months, and years were passing outside the casino, but time was a blur to C.J. He had no idea how long he'd been in here, or who he was, or where he was from

It was already the mid 90s the first time he met some odd man

(Author's note!! Please click away now if you don't want to read the sa bit of this story)

He said his name was Hermes, and that he was a god, and C.J thought that was hilarious. C.J was hardly listening to any of the shit this guy was saying, and barely conscious enough to form words of his own, but he knew he didn't really like the way he was being touched

He opened his mouth to protest, but instead his head spun and everything went dark. He woke up in a different part of the casino, propped up at the wall next to the door that lead to the men's bathroom

Suddenly he felt more conscious than he had in years. He looked down and his shorts were unbuttoned, and he felt gross and used, like he was covered in dirty handprints that he couldn't wash away

But then the lotus in the air wore his memories away, and he obliviously smiled as music blared and people laughed and danced

And years passed, and people came and went from the casino

He heard a young boy run by and yell "Bianca!", and it almost sounded familiar

Almost

Chapter 213 Trivia (Part 1)

I guess things were going too well for too long..?

Gen's drawing of Senku here was probably inspired by very early chapter cover images. I don't know why else he'd be holding an exploding container.

We've now got three interpretations of Whyman: the generic one, Luna's, and now Gen's.

I like how Gen's has arms and legs coming out of the skull!

Finally! The Kingdom of Science can watch Dr. Stone together!

As long as someone animates it…

Kenjiro Takayanagi of Shizuoka University is considered one of the main pioneers of television, succeeding in displaying the character イ (i) on his Braun tube display in Dec 1926. Over the next few years, he improved the image allowing more detailed images such as human faces.

By 1939, Japan's first television station began broadcasting from NHK (Japan Broadcasting Corporation). After the war, Takayanagi Sensei's work was used as a foundation for other televisions and related industries around the world.

If everyone thought working on a second cell phone after they'd spent months making one was bad, they're not ready to hear about what they'll need to make for television broadcasts. (Senku also never changes...)

I didn't realize how big their other boat was. I guess things made in the USA really are bigger?

The Perseus not being the biggest ship anymore makes me a little sad :(

SAL 9000 is a reference to HAL 9000, the AI antagonist from Space Odyssey. It stands for "Heuristically programmed ALgorithmic computer", so in this case it might be "Senku programmed" or even "Sai programmed"!

The "NES" (actually the Famicom again, both in the drawing and Sai's comment in the Japanese version) and SAL 9000 don't have the exact same specifications:

SAL 9000 is specialized for math operations and thus has a longer word length (16 bits vs 8) which allows more significant figures in the numbers. They've also got more RAM (SAL has 16 kB while the NES has 2).

The downside is that because they used parametrons, their clock speed (how fast they can do calculations) is slower than if they'd used transistors.

The large amount of ROM they've also got could imply that they have several built-in programs. Xeno's work, perhaps?

CRT screens only reach a maximum diagonal length of around 40 inches (~101 cm), as a larger screen needs a larger tube, and the thickness of the glass increases with size to handle the vacuum without shattering making it very unwieldy with the added weight and thus not worth manufacturing for sale.

Senku's here is obviously much, much bigger. Possibly even world record; the biggest CRT screens made were 61 inches (~152 cm) on the diagonal.

SAL 9000 has both air and water cooling, probably used depending on what's better for individual parts. Normally you only need one or the other.

It'd be good if they could get the carbonated water maker in there and ferment some alcohol faster too using the computer's heat…

SAL 9000 also has 3 phase power like modern power transmission. They're AC power sources, phase shifted by 120° so that at any point in time, their sum is 0. The advantage to this is that you don't need return lines for the current, so you can use half as many cables.

The games shown are inspired by Tetris (featuring Ishigami Village and Roppongi!), Pacman, a combination game of Gyruss and Tempest, then another combination game of Galaga and Asteroids.

The transmission towers can only be headed towards the dam, so we have an approximate direction for where that is! There's a few rivers nearby in modern Tokyo, but over 3,700 years they've probably changed a lot.

Title: CHEERING FOR PACQUIAO

Well, another 'Pacquiao' related artwork by ME. 🙂🥊🎨🖼️ As I said before, I used to be a "Pacquiao supporter", in my early years of childhood until January 2019, which is my last said related artwork.

• So, for this November throwback installment, MuruKir and the Speedster Twins (Spot 🐶🏎️ & Riya 🐰🏎️) cheering at Manny Pacquiao 🇵🇭🥊faces Algieri Hungry 🇺🇸🇦🇷🥊 for the WBO World Welterweight title. The so called "PacMan" (which is his nickname, and not to be confused with the yellow hungry video game icon, "Pac-Man") lands Algieri 6-times, until the referee declares K.O. and Pacquiao successfully defended his WBO title. Yeah, what a moment for the former Filipino boxer unlike his previous opponent, which you should check it out. 👇🙂

I think the silliest headcanon I've ever had (or at least that I can think of from the top of my head) is about Pacman and the Ghostly Adventures.

I headcanon that Zac (Pacster's father) can play the recorder like The Legend™.

I'll attempt to tag :

@hajacrmainblog What's your favorite fandom inside joke ?

@grey-spark What headcanon do you have that you love the most ?

9???

tell a story about my childhood. hmmmmm. HAVE I TOLD THE POOL OF WORMS HERE???? I DONT THINK I HAVE

okay this is the story of my first EVER recorded dream and i remember it vividly. i had a dream journal because of sharkboy and lavagirl at like four or five

so in my state capital there is a mall. which is more like a civic center. and i went often enough to memorize the layout. in my dream i was there. and there was a giant pit in the floor. in my dream journal, and i shit you not, i called it the Pool of Worms

in the Pool of Worms, there were just a few colored worms at the bottom that squiggled around. i was looking at this from the escalator high above and mom said “dont go down there”. i took this opportunity to jump

and according to what i drew, i landed in what i can best describe as the family guy death pose. and all the worms wriggled up to me and i died like pacman does when he gets hit by the ghosts. later my mom went to the local grocery store and bought a cardboard cutout of me because she was so sad. the end. thank you for your quesiion!

Sega Genesis Game Pads and the Mode Button

I had a Sega Mega Drive (aka Genesis) as a kid, and also a 6-button game pad. Actually still have, but I haven't used them in forever.

The 6-button controller has shoulder-button labeled "MODE" and I only learned what it's for recently. When you hold it down while starting the console, it will disable the extra buttons and act like an old 3-button controller. Ok, that's pretty boring. The interesting part is why I didn't need to know that.

3-Button Controller

Basically, the 6-button pad Just Works because the 3-button pad already had one button too many. The controller uses a connector with 9 pins. One pin each for power and ground leaves you with 7, but it has 8 inputs: UP, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT, A, B, C, START.

To solve this, the controller contains a multiplexer. By setting the voltage on one of the pins, the console can select which inputs it wants the controller to report.

When voltage on the select pin is LOW, the controller indicates that it is present (so you can distinguish "no controller connected" from "no buttons pressed") and reports the state of the inputs UP, DOWN, A, START.

When voltage on the select pin is HIGH, the controller reports UP, DOWN (again), LEFT, RIGHT, B, C.

This makes it backwards-compatible with Sega's earlier console Master System, with B and C corresponding to buttons 1 and 2 on the MS controller, and A and START doing nothing.

The way a 3-button game normally interacts with the controller is that for each frame, the game briefly sets the select pin LOW, records the inputs, then sets it back to HIGH and records the rest. These are then the inputs for that frame. This is also called a pulse.

6-Button Controller

Instead of a multiplexer, the 6-button controller has a microcontroller that counts the number of pulses received. For the first two pulses, it behaves like a 3-button controller. Also, the counter resets after not receiving a pulse for 1.5 ms. That way, a 3-button game running at 60 fps that reads the controller once per frame will only see the behavior that it expects. Unfortunately, a small number of 3-button games don't behave this way (Ms Pacman for example), so that's why the MODE button is needed.

A 6-button-aware game interacts with the controller by rapidly pulsing it three times every frame. When the select pin is set LOW for the third time, a 6-button controller will indicate that it is in fact a 6-button controller. If a game isn't 6-button-aware and somehow gets the controller in this state, this looks as if you're pressing UP and DOWN simultaneously, so that's where the problems start.

When the pin is set to HIGH again, the controller reports the X, Y, Z and MODE inputs. So you can also use the MODE button as a normal game button. Only a handful of games do this though, and some of them only for cheat codes. (I actually happen to own one of them: Vectorman)

I just thought this is very hacky and also really cool! I wonder if I could manage to read out my old controllers with an Arduino or something!
