I personally want to try this stuff called 'Hemp20' water.

Is it just water w/ THC added or is there other stuff, too?

I honestly do not know. I only saw it in an ad from a magazine, but it looked cool.

Actually, I think it is fruit flavored or something like that...

I am done anyway, sorry if I made a mess though. I get way into arguments sometimes. They can be fun! <3

@Kayzee- I never asked for your opinion. I didn't bother reading g your latest little rant as sure it's the same bullshit you always spew. I'm trying to talk to Phoenix and your arguing with me. What the fuck with you? You're noting more than a pathetic, whiny little bitch of an attention whore so us laughably narrowminded. I know-it-all who doesn't know when to shut the hell up. A brat who whines and bitches and moans but never lifts a finger to change anything. When's the last time you went out to protest so one of these causes you're so passionate about? Signed a petition? When's the last time you even voted. Don't talk the talk if you're too chicken shit to walk the walk. Go crawl back into your safescape, snowflake. Don't bother replying, I'm blocking your ignorant ass.

~enough of that, locking this. I can't hide I'm disappointed by what I have found here.

I was referring to this actually, but that probably works just as well if not better.

Hmmm...
a.max_tp +=x

I'll have to look into this when I get back into gamedev...

@Kayzee oh ya, that thing lol.
 

One of them is designed as a framework for letting other plugin devs define new effects for users so that users don't need to write code. The other is designed to be just "write whatever code you can think of"

The first one, being a framework, requires additional set up. And then you're stuck with limited note-tag parsing option.

The second one, you get multi-line code parsing. Definitely better.

Sounds like 1960's, 70's Psychedelic Rock to me...

Definitely a standard four string bass.

Here, this should be a blast from the past...

Well standard except for the extra frets anyway I guess. That whole album is done with custom instruments and uses half-flats and half-sharps you see, but I don't know how noticeable it is on that song, maybe it's more noticeable on this one? But yeah, it's definitely Psychedelic Rock, though it's only styled like it was from the 60's or 70's. The album really came out earlier this year. :3

Speaking of out-there rock music...

This here oughtta bring back memories...

Yeah, that was an awesome song, and I honestly want the song stems...

something you don't like doing, it will be worth it in the short term if it keeps a roof over your head and food in your stomach. Or you can go the bank robbing and or drug dealing route =D

This ain't Skyrim; I've no realistic skill in Thievery...

Getting a job? I've been barking up THAT tree for ages...

Of course, anything heavy labor-related is out because...my strengths are intellectual. No one is looking to hire for that kind of strength, that I've seen.

Also, transportation; if the job is on the other side of Wichita, I'd be paying for the gas and that's not cheap. Aaaah...why, damn it...

Honestly if you ask me the whole job market is screwed up. Heck, around my town panhandlers can often make more money per year sometimes then people with jobs. Though my town is a very strange place.

Since I had to manually set that data (and for some tiles I actually wasn't sure at first how to set the data because I wasn't even sure what the fuck I was looking at lolz), I knew there would be mistakes made aplenty...

But yeah; it does not show that graphic everywhere; if it did, that would of actually been quite helpful.

It's probobly a good idea to actually start making maps using the tiles first to see how they fit together and setting the tile's data based on that. Even so, remember it's your tileset data used for your game, so it's not really a mistake if your tileset data ends up being very different from the one in the original game or you use tiles in different ways. I don' think you really have to spend a lot of time guessing what a tile is for if you have no clue, just use it as whatever you want to use it as.

I agree, but one issue I have is that if I can't even guess at what it could possibly be, making up what it is in my mind is not something I find comfortable doing. I mean, I'm not looking at inkblots here, lolz

Actually, that's what I usually do. Though, there are times when I'd rather get the underlying data done first, and that is usually the case when I have a lot of data to sort through (i.e. this tileset).

I haven't played the source game, so I don't even know if the tilesets are arranged in remotely the same manner or not. That said, I'd presume they're very likely to not be. I also don't even know if the source game uses VX Ace as the engine base, or if it's some other engine.

I don't know where you got that idea at but you're wrong. Like I said, I've been using this service myself for about 10 years now & I've never had to pay a dime.

Huh, okay. Maybe I was thinking of something else.

One can get email service from them, though last I checked there is some kind of barrier to entry, I believe it is in the form of requiring a mobile device that can send and receive SMS messages, that I don't think was there ten years ago.

I need a license before I could even consider getting a car.

Honestly, if I wanted something like that I'd rather have a McLaren F1.

Or, a Bugatti Veyron...

I'm sure the car will start when you turn the key even without a license. Just don't get pulled over 

Or come across a checkpoint of any sort...

Yeah, better safe then sorry.

Of course the car will start; the machine is indifferent to whomever is behind the wheel (for now).

I think this is an hilarious matter because plenty of other countries already charge extra for some websites on certain platforms and no one's crying about it, just America, who has had this net neutrality thing for only 2 or 3 years.

My country has net neutrality, like many of the EU, and ISPs only charge either mobile data or download/upload speeds, which don't make a difference at all, or so I think, because in the end you get access to the entire internet at around the same speed for everyone.

My solution is to become one with the internet like Lawnmower Man  

*pats your head* There, there... We are all a mess. :3

Honestly it sounds to me like you had inherited a mess even before that. In some ways existence it's self is a huge mess. But messes can be fun sometimes too!

@Kayzee That particular functionality doesn't even work well in the likes of Phase Shift.

 Yeah, Ace's video playing capabilities is very limited.

Yeah, no kidding, lolz
I think there was one scripter that tried to implement new video playback features, but I'm not sure of how well it works since I have never tried it. I think it was Estriole...not sure since this was back in 2017 and I don't remember SHIT from back them other than a few things... xD

But if you gifted a key to somebody, who already has the software, then can't you ask that person to send you the key back and give it to somebody else? I don't understand what the problem is.

Either way, as we're talking before, I was waiting for weeks for a reply from one company. A tiny conversation with few messages took more than a month.

Here's the thing: When you have a centralized system, any system, there is going to be times where, for whatever reason, it dosn't work right. A bunch of times usually. There is a curve on which the investment in making the system more robust and able to handle more problems has diminishing returns. There is simply a point at which problems are no longer worth worrying over. What that point is is debatable, but the point still stands.

My point is, people don't and can't solve everything automatically or invest enough in support to solve problems for everyone quickly. They don't have the manpower, time, or money to do so, not when millions or billions of people on the net are possibly screaming at them every second, justified or not. But, and this is important, that dosn't mean you should stop screaming. Because it's the only way anything ever gets done.

Could there be a better way? Yeah, probobly. Even if no system is perfect people can still do better. Heck people have done better. But this kind of problem? This is the kind of thing you either need to accept is going to happen, scream and yell until someone answers, or refuse to have anything to do with the whole system to avoid.

@Kayzee Yeah, this has already been sorted out.

...

Okay then! Back to gamedev.

It's so much the tits that it leaks milk! :3

Speaking of... 

Running low on milk... 

Fufufu... Now you are tempting me to offer some of mine...

Is there a tutorial where we should start? I have no idea how to start from scratch

Hmmm... Do you primarily use MV or VX Ace? I am not sure about MV but I know there was a 'slip into ruby' thing for VX Ace.

@Kayzee I believe she(?) uses MV.

Of course, @Trihan also made a JS tutorial in the same format as Slip into Ruby (I think it goes by the name 'Jump into Java' or something like that).

The few times I've tried wine it wasn't sour. That sounds even worse. Bleh! They must've forgotten to add the antifreeze =3

I don't drink a whole lot of wines, but the ones I had were quite sweet (mostly white and pink wines). Red wines are too sour for my tastes.

@PhoenixSoul Could be, but I think I am just picky.

Le sigh... This is exactly what I was talking about.

Okay look. You two are looking at it all wrong. It's not about smashing the state and freeing all the little oppressed people. It's not about how to make sure the trains run on time when no one is in charge. I mean sure, that can be an aspect of it, but it isn't real core of anarchism.

Let me just ask a simple question: What is society to you?

Is it a tool to be used? Is it our purpose and function and without it we are lost? Is it a roadblock to getting what you really want? Is it a cruel oppressor that just feeds on people? Is it an amusing game?

There are all sorts of answers one could give to that question. What you choose to answer doesn't matter. But even just acknowledging that the question exists shows us something: That society is a thing that is not yourself. That the question is a valid thing to ask. That not everyone will have the same answer. Not everyone is going to treat society the same way, not everyone is going to want the same things out of it, some might not want anything at all. Not every one's ideal society is the same. And that's fine, not everyone has to agree. We still get along well enough, grumbles aside.

But you still get to choose that answer. It starts with you. Not any of the so-called world leaders. Not your boss. Not the people on the street. No. It's YOU. You choose to play along with their rules or to reject them. There are consequences for rejecting them. Yet people still do. And that is the core of anarchism. The realization that all of us, every one of us, have a choice. If you never thought you did before, you do now.

By saying this I am not saying rules and laws should be thrown by the wayside willy nilly. I am not saying we should rip down everything needlessly. I am not advocating with this any action or lack of action. Yes, I personally do think things could be done better, I personally do think society is at least a little oppressive in some ways, but those are my silly beliefs and even then I am not for outright abandonment of society, I just think it could use a bit more work.

The real core of Anarchism is simply acknowledging yourself as the master of your own heart. Is just letting yourself say no when your heart calls for it. Everything that follows is besides the point. Maybe human society would be better off if it was torn down and built anew, but I don't think it needs to go that far and would rather not have it get to that point. That doesn't mean there is nothing that might be worth fighting, but I am not going to rip everything down and make a mess.

I don't agree with you Kilo, but I follow your reasoning.
I feel like you're attempting to be diplomatic and provide a question in place of an answer, and that's admirable. You suggest "anarchy", though it sounds to me like what you're looking for is "personal responsibility".

Regardless of semantics, the sentiment is difficult to disagree with.

I am more suggesting that the question is the answer in this case. At least to why you two don't see eye to eye so much on stuff like this. You both seem to be arguing in a more large scale way about society as a whole. I think you both fundamentally looking at society from a different lens.

Heh, 'personal responsibility'. In some ways anarchism is like the absolute rejection of any kind of 'personal responsibility'. and in other ways it may be the very embodiment of it? Funny that. But 'responsibility' is generally a word that makes me roll my eyes. It makes me think of a nagging mom. I rather that actions, or lack there of, speak for themselves.

But see? I fixed stuff!  My previous pc had to break that. 

Speaking of gallery, personally I'd remove all the categories and just leave user albums for you to create. The pre-made categories are kind of messy in my opinion, but since I'm not posting much there, I'm just leaving it be, until somebody would like to make some changes there, that is.

Yeah, it is all well and good...

Indeed, a day isn't a very long time, but one must factor everything the individual waiting in limbo is already going through before just saying that.

Of course, I'm only saying this because that is how I think...I put myself in my own shoes and in the shoes of others.

@Rikifive Ya know, I had the same fun before. I think you just love to be pending on breaking pending things. XD

@PhoenixSoul Tbh, a day's wait time is nothing to my 382 hours worth of waiting, and by that number's logic and the program I was trying to get, it went from 25 hours to that, to 45 minutes, then went haywire.

Don't we all, don't we all, @Rikifive, lolz

I know one thing; I either gamedev, write, or game. If I do one of those things, I often don't get to do much else.

True, and even for that one thing you pick there's not enough time.  

Nope, never enough time...

It's almost as if I belong to the Pagan way of thinking, in which, that's far better than the patriarchs of sin known to the smarter people as mainstay religion.

I mean really...since when is the clergy supposed to take money from people?

Oooh! You would get along great with fairies then! Most of us are some form of 'Pagan', though most of us treat religion more like a special fanclub... then again given how you humans can get about fandom maybe it's not that different.

My belief system is I have no belief system.

@Kayzee So true, so so true...and it makes me wanna puke.

Makes me wanna stalk people at major tech companies and slap them across the face whenever they have a bad idea. "Durr, I know! Let's add a system to windows that is by default on that lets anyone remotely log in to anyone's computer and do whatever they want!" *slap* "Herp, lets add a system that lets sites execute arbitrary code on a users computer!" *slap* "Duuhhh, lets have our system send everything the user tyeps to our servers!" *slap* Boy, just Microsoft alone will make my hand sore within a half hour.

@Kayzee lmfao (while you're at it, give the same treatment to the CIA, the NSA, Secret Service, lol)

In all due honesty, I believe that the government is the real culprit. No, I don't just believe, I know that it is true. But don't just slap that jackass Donald Trump, beat him senseless. Hii hii hii!

@Cookie Ninja I can do music; my low-end computer cannot run MV.

What exactly are you looking for? BGM, BGS, ME, SE, theme, length...

Hey, but it's the same as with many other things. For example it's quite rare to see a game fully and properly translated to Polish, so many of the polish players have no idea what the story is about- they can only assume things based on cutscenes and what characters do in them, but when it comes to talk- it's nothing but irrelevant 'blah blah' to them. It's not as easy as you think it is to release something in many different languages. If somebody doesn't know English, it's not their fault for not releasing it in that language. If you think it is their fault, then please make something legit in Polish language, so that I could perfectly know what you've created. Are you up to that challenge?

Try using Google Translator. That's what I did with some scripts and at least I had the basic idea of what the script was doing. If you don't have time for that, then don't blame scripters for not having the time either.

Also please calm down with cursing. At the moment you're number one when it comes to use foul language. Be aware, that there are users under 18, so it's not appropriate to use that amount of curses in an offensive way, like you did.

(Perhaps I also should turn CAPS LOCK ON)

...

I won't go there, I'm better and greater than that.

Also, translate.google is garbage. It will work for simple things, in MOST languages, but some languages come out completely wrong, and there are even phrases that don't translate well, even from Spanish. I'd use an AVGN quote, but I'd get tagged as offensive.

No, I'm not the only one who uses profuse vulgarity, and I'm not even the strongest of vulgarity usage. I just happen to be the most visible, because I am the least constrained by 'societal norms'.

'Most users are under 18'

Most people know mainstream vulgarity by age 10. Not saying that everyone should use it, but 'shielding' is a bad practice in general. I will skip the psychology of it, mainly because I could write an essay on the matter and it is overall, irrelevant to the topic at hand which has irrevocably derailed now.

I will ignore further replies; it is obvious that I cannot say anything, without firing up some sort of controversy. I feel like one of those critics on YouTube, like SidAlpha or HighImpactFlix...

"Ask and you shall receive."

Woot! More buttons!

@Rikifive In my case, nine hundred and ninety-nine times of a thousand, it is "Ask and get laughed at."

That is literally what happens, because I don't get the help and I get made into a laughingstock.

And then people have the audacity to confront me when I feel suicidal over it.

This is to all of you that are this way...

@lonequeso That is until you find out he's a demonic cat that'll rip you to shreds for spraying him? I guess? XD

You just have to be firm with it. NO! NO! BAD KITTY! *spray* *spray* If that doesn't work, get some catnip and ignite it. That'll mellow it out real quick =p

Well, I got nothing there. XP

@PhoenixSoul Have you ever considered that maybe your problem is trying to calculate everything with a 'balanced equation' in the first place? Life is chaotic and messy, and yet you seem to be looking at life as if it's a ordered system. It's like you see everything in just black and white without any shades of gray, let alone colors.

The thing is, I can't very well say you are wrong in the way you see the world, anymore then I could say a colorblind person is wrong in how they see the world. Heck, when it comes to color vision birds have humans beat since they can usually see ultraviolet, and the whole idea of 'color' is really just an abstraction in the first place. Does that mean humans see wrong? I say no. People say color only exists in the mind, but I say that we are seeing something in the world that means something.

I can't deny your feelings.  I understand where you are coming from. The problems you see mean something, they are out there in the world. But I think sometimes you aren't seeing everything you could, or are seeing it but you are filtering it out because it doesn't fit the ordered grid you use to look at the world. I think if you could you would understand a bit better.

In short, I recommend you consult your pineal gland and commune with our lady Eris! You can always read the scriptures online. Maybe it will help!

@Amysaurus  Society is broken though right? I think we can all agree on that even if we can't agree on how or why. Okay, okay, broken is a bit much. It's more like, a work in progress. It works fine for a lot of things but still has a few major bugs to work out.

@Amysaurus Okay. (Most artists tend to have disagreeing perspectives anyway, lol)

@Kayzee Bookmarked.

FTR, I was trying to give the perspective of a mathematical persuasion, but even that translates poorly.

It is hard to explain how I see things, because I see things through multiple lenses, if one will.

I have observed that my ability to see both the corruption and beauty of everything as well as the mathematics behind it, only makes me an outcast in every regard, at least, here that is the case.

One thing that I am never sure of, however, is the observance of these things via a computer screen, because I don't see anything but text and graphics. I can only make the best possible calculations via what I've observed offline.

That said, I know I'm not wrong, because one cannot truly disguise their intentions with text and graphics, just put a mask over them. I can still see corruption when it is there.

I know no one will agree with me fully, and it isn't what I expect. But to be treated like an idiot...beyond uncalled for. Nor is it remotely fair and definitely not balanced.

"Only a society based in equality and reputability is a fully functioning society." -Odinn, Governor of Honor

Just because I don't think you are wrong doesn't mean I think you are right either, but even so I don't think you are an idiot. I simply believe that what is corruption and what is beauty depends a lot on your point of view, and aren't necessarily mutually exclusive. I don't believe in things like 'justice' and 'balance', not really. I mean I agree they can exist, I just don't put my faith in them. Rather I trust in chaos and freedom, in my own heart to guide me. I have a feeling that would not fit in very well with the world you would want to create.

@Rikifive You remade Contra? Nice! lol

Yeah, a Contra-like game  I do love the good old Contra from NES.  Good times...
