Are Metallica gonna release a godawful album with shit production quality?
Whats my age again?
I said I was the cops
Well I guess this is growing up
Jumanji was released 7 years ago. Both times!
Wow jeeze. Time really is cyclical. Let’s go forward until dinosaurs are back.
And Buffy is in talks.
And the new KOTH episodes fucking slap.
Except we invaded Iraq with years of preparation and a decade-long no-fly zone to chip away at them. We are going into this one with a pants around our ankles.
I can’t do this all on my own…
2003? Ok, peeps, in about 13 years time there’s going to be an issue at a zoo. DO NOT LET ANYONE KILL HARAMBE!
We must not go on that timeline again!!!20 year retro rule strikes again.
RIP 90s retro, you didn’t even get to exist because of the fucking 80s overstaying their already tired ass dead eyed bullshit
90s just never really left.
TV wise, providers still fight hard for Friends and Seinfeld. I still see teenagers slapping on Nirvana shirts. My clothes from back then still fit and are intact and a kid at my kids school asked me where I got my clothes because they wanted some just like them.
OK, but no more than stuff from other decades. Are you really claiming that there have been waves of retro focused content to the same degree as 80s dance parties, 80s aesthetic revival games and music, etc for the 90s? Kool and the Gang’s “celebration” is in every animated film and advert, it doesn’t mean the 70s retro scene is a cultural tour de force that is going strong and infiltrating every cultural touchstone. (god fucking damnit, that song came out in 1980 IDFK, provide your own example of an overused 70s song)
If we’re doing 2000s nostalgia, I guess hip hugger bell bottoms and translucent plastic is gonna be trendy?
I think they are claiming there are no waves because it doesn’t need it, the 90s never really left
well nothing ever fucking left, it’s called object permanence. Stoners have put posters of Pink Floyd’s “Dark Side of The Moon” and pretentious assholes* have listened to Bach since they existed. “Retro waves” are when these things become more significant than their usual levels of cultural impact and human ritual.
*I include myself in this group, Bach kicks ass.
baroque for life my brother, it never really left, now it lives on every progrock band and 80s videogame composer
That’s all fine. Just as long as parachute pants don’t come back.
My clothes from back then still fit
#SubtleBrag
and are intact
#FormerNaturist?
Well, they didn’t fit for many years and then I lost a bunch of weight and could wear them again, so they just mostly survived a closet…
the dream of the 90s is alive in portland
Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen just released
*re-released
Yes, please! That’s all I need…
Diablo II also!
Sorry everyone, I opened a new branch off the
2003release while I was researching some of the bugs in the legacy code. That wasn’t supposed to get merged in…This just further confirms that the world simulation actually did break from the y2k bug. We fixed the bug in here, but no one fixed the simulation. The cascade failure has just been spreading out of control since then. Now we have recursion errors! The sim tried to restart but it’s all corrupt lol.
I think the root problem lies in some of the really gnarly, pre-1.0 code that we are afraid to touch because it might break something, that’s why it keeps cropping up even though we keep slapping patches pell-mell on top of it. It just happened to pop out pretty bad in 03.
But you made it worse!
yep, the bug triggers when a political party overflows its buffer. The funny thing is, the system still catches the error and spams the logs with
FATALerror messages, but the system has been throwing them for so long and seems to still be chugging along so we kind of ignore them. One of the original devs made a comment about how someone should fix it right before leaving the team. Anyway, the effect tends to accumulate, so if you deploy it to prod and don’t fix it, eventually you get… this.My bad.
Fix it Fix it Fix it Fix it!
(I tried to find the Futurama meme of that, but my phone said No)
Trying, I’m stuck on a bridge with some of the seniors right now. One of them wants to “just push through and see what happens” and roll forward with the change, the other one disapproves but clearly has no idea what else to do. Nobody seems to want to even propose a plan because then they’d be on the hook for it, so we just keep going back and forth and not. ending. the call.
This is why I’ve been arguing against rebase merges. If we aren’t super careful with older branches, we end up with messes like this. Maybe just squash and merge in the future?
I don’t know, this whole situation could have been avoided if people would just check with the team before merging stuff. I think people see revisions from old releases so they just merge them because they “worked before” so they should work now. It doesn’t work for the current userbase, frankly it didn’t work all that well for most users back when it was released the first time. Just merging any old crap straight into main without reading it so they can brag about how many PRs they close.
How would you reboot MITM?
Is everyone old or you just recast everyone? Either way I can’t see it working. That or they use AI which would also be terrible.
“Almost 20 years after the end of the original series, Malcolm now lives a happy life with his daughter Leah and girlfriend Tristan, having distanced himself from his birth family. He is forced to bring them into the family’s chaos when his parents Hal and Lois demand his presence for their 40th wedding anniversary party.” source
and it is only a miniseries, 4 episodes long, more like a TV reunion special than a reboot
It’s only 4 episodes and includes the original cast members showing Malcom as an adult.
It’s a different Dewey, sadly. I think the original kid quit acting
So, corporate is relying on AI for creativity and as such, the only option remaining is to reboot old successes.
don’t blame analog slop on serverside bubble slop
…There’s new episodes of Scrubs? 😳
and it’s good
It’s decent. Not having Ted and Janitor means we won’t get all those incredible throwaway scenes and downbeats which really elevate the original run from good to great.
Raises the pirate flag furiously
Yo ho
