Don't you just hate when you wind up in a store with people who are in a socioeconomic class that is pretty obviously about two levels lower than your own?
what does this mean for the viability of setting up nntp.yospos.net on Linode when the forums are turned off on 1/31?

The mov-only DOOM renders approximately one frame every 7 hours, so playing this version requires somewhat increased patience.

My Linode VPSes got patched for Meltdown or whatever and performance seems identical but for some reason it's now reporting way more I/O





dunno. overall load is less than i thought it'd be, i guess there's some caching going on

yup but at 35 fps a speedrun would still take 50 years

You're already dead

ironically someone recently started a bot that posts a frame from a doom speedrun every 6 hours, which is a little faster than playing it in mov-only doom https://twitter.com/thedoomclock

The clock is reset by doing a speedrun even faster, forcing the bot to start over with a new one.
