imagine being a little weenie who has the entirety of doom as your gender when you could be someone whose gender is FOUR copies of doom

Worst approximation of pi I've ever seen.

Reasonable approximation of the specific heat capacity of water.

What does it mean?

[-] NoisyOwl@hexbear.net 3 points 9 months ago

It means that you have a high capacity for knowing really specific things about water.

Uploading Doom as your gender probably defaults your account pronouns to rip/tear

[-] NoisyOwl@hexbear.net 16 points 9 months ago

I don't know about tear, rip has some very worrying pronouns.

I need to know the origins of this picture. I have a vague memory, I remember something but now I need to know.

Iirc, when this place was still called Chapo.chat, someone tried to upload this photo of this DPRK soldier who was working at the DMZ. But the photo was so big that it got corrupted and crashed the website.

Someone upscaled a picture of a DPRK soldier and it crashed their computer in the process, then they uploaded the corrupted image here to "see what would happen" and it crashed the server and put the image processing process in a loop of crashing, starting, and crashing again until it was manually shut off, IIRC.

AFAIK it led to safeguards against that sort of thing being implemented, but I don't know anything about that.

it's a glitchy image of a DPRK soldier that broke hexbear back when it was still chapochat

You broke the gender machine. We're finally free!

my gender is like 10 gigabytes

[-] PM_ME_YOUR_FOUCAULTS@hexbear.net 16 points 9 months ago

Imagine being a loser whose gender is less than 10 mb

Fun fact, in (at least) GzDoom you are able to change your gender! You can choose between Male, Female, Neutral and Object.

Players have also been asking for pronoun options but Le No Chicken (Graf Zahl) has been a stupid fucking gamer about it. Not to mention a developer of a project which barely even fucking works nowadays due to it being hampered by its base design. Here's the thread, read only if you can live with the gamer nonsense being spewed:

CW gamer: https://forum.zdoom.org/viewtopic.php?t=72726

PrBoom+ is the better engine, don't @ me ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ˜Ž

The first page of that discussion was actually really good. Other than Graf being a dunce about it, people were voicing support for the pronoun options. Then I turned to the second page, where now the discussion had shifted towards being wary of "political statements". Never change, Gamers.
