ALL-PRO SEXMAN posted:Georges Méliès made a skin flick called Apres le Bath that involved a woman undressing and being showered with something that's supposed to be water but isn't by her maid. The most interesting part of the film is that because of the tight corset the woman wears, her rear end is almost square-shaped. To tell you what a sexy hot turn on it is and what unspeakable acts happen right before your eyes, it's on YouTube.

It's almost as if they didn't need Fallout 3 to make Fallout 3 mods. Nice try, Satan. Everyone knows Earth was created fewer than 10,000 years ago. Big boob fossils are tricks you put into the earth to confuse and mislead God's children.

WebDog posted:Scanimate! Love the look of Scanimate! The starfields and glowing text is so unique! Before cheap accessible CGI every complex graphic for TV in the late 80s and early 90s was created with a 3D video manipulator called a Digital Video Effects unit or DVE. You could keyframe moves and repeat them perfectly. Combined with a video switcher, Chyron graphics machine and a Quantel video Paintbox, an editor could painstakingly build very complex effects layer by layer. In the hands of a creative mind some very neat pseudo CGI could be made: http://youtu.be/_Y_y85iLGWY

Speaking of keyboards, I don't see these anymore, probably made obsolete by how stupid they are: We had these keyboards in high school. More than once have I lost work when trying to take a screenshot. Dad had a PC with this keyboard:   What usability problem does this even solve? (the turbo button does nothing, btw)

WebDog posted:So I attempted to fix that by re-installing windows 98 over itself...which surprisingly didn't break it, but didn't help. I don't know where so many myths on Windows 98 came from. Of course it could be reinstalled over itself: it's how you restored really bad cases of system file corruption that couldn't be solved with SFC. It also rolled back Windows to the "Gold" version, overwriting any updates you had installed (Windows Update is much older than you probably think). It didn't touch your documents or registry at all: after a reinstallation you still had all your files, settings, third party drivers... and third party driver issues. You had to manually nuke system.dat (the registry), and any .inf/.sys files (drivers) for the installation to reset those; maybe delete autoexec.bat and config.sys too for good measure, in case you were using ancient DOS drivers Christ, I can't count how many times I reinstalled Windows 98 and saw the notorious tambourine progress animation. It wasn't even to fix issues, I just liked to gently caress with all the options and settings during installation to see how much I could customize, eventually even found the tool on the CD-ROM that let you make a configuration file for an unattended installation. The Windows 95 CD-ROM may have been full of goodies like music videos and Hover, but the Windows 98 one was absolutely full of low level technical tools for developers and administrators Windows developer and blogger Raymond Chen once said that all executables in the Windows directory are written or were changed so that they won't do anything bad or dangerous when double-clicked, because there were people who, for some reason, opened the Windows directory and double-clicked every single executable they found. I was one of those people Raygereio posted:lighting techniques from 1897. Georges Méliès famously worked with natural light only. His movie studio was pretty much a greenhouse

 One of the first computer reviews I ever read, of the original Apple II (  ), complained about the Reset key being right next to the Return key. Back then it may have been a bad idea; today it's clearly malicious.

Probably a lot of it was trying to copy the Macintosh lines at the time, since they had the power button in a similar spot on the keyboard instead of on the machine.

Wasn't that because the power button was directly connected to the PSU and would just cut power, whereas the shutdown button would begin a graceful shutdown?

peter gabriel posted:Not my first memory but an early one. I think I posted this ages ago, but if you ever get a hankerin' for them sweet beeps and boops check out The Arcade Ambience Project. It takes the audio output from a bunch of different arcade cabinets and slaps them together into a long ambient track. There's even crowds chattering in the background, air hockey tables, and coin exchangers pouring out tokens. you can pick from four years: 1981, 1983, 1986, and 1992. Each one samples machines that would have been in arcades that year. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DXzioeBmPCQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x6aNPsjNwFo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XUQs1P8m_Ik https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KNVdREXnOLM

This is a cute idea but it's just all the sounds at basically the same volume layered on top of one another. More like arcade throwup than arcade ambience. (But it was fun to hear Sinistar's blood curdling roar mixed in.)

Even my entry level college 'busy street corner' using faked Doppler effects was more immersive (but still poo poo).
