It's never really who you were expecting. Take that one cruel guy as an example that even your favorite idol can indulge in these activities.

Kevin Spacey is the only one so far that has hurt me because I value up highly as an actor. Almost sacred cow territory where I couldn't shit on him at all. Every movie I've seen of his featured a tremendous performance by him. From Glengarry Glen Ross to American Beauty, even a slightly underrated film, Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, I always loved his acting. In that aforementioned Eastwood directed movie, I remember his character being gay, which that planted the seed in my brain about his homosexuality being apparent. So when he revealed he was gay, I was not surprised at all, thinking he already came out. It'll be hard now to watch his movies again and I'm deeply interested in watching Baby Driver.

Don't care about Louis CK other than tracking his downfall and comparing it to Spacey. From Spacey I learned that you can turn from hero to zero within 24 hours. It's horrifying. Weinstein, not surprising, he looked greasy and sleazy. The lengths of his acts though, surprising, the idea of him doing it, not at all. Ratner, least surprising of them all, I heard rumblings of him being a dirty bitch.

This trend is scaring me big time, because I fear other of my cinematic heroes will get struck by this. Two I'll probably cry over: Tom Hanks and Clint Eastwood. Oh and lesson learned, if you run for the presidency, this shit won't bog you down, you'll still be elected and run this country...to the ground? Yeah.

Ok seems someone doesn't like Hollywood movies.....

They used to be better, but the quality of the movies is not the problem, it's how fucked up the industry is.
Well, but even when it comes to quality, they're not good. They're being used as a platform for virtual signaling and propaganda, Hollywood is completely bought by the globalists, everything that comes out of there is bad.

Not everything. Pixar is still good minus Cars of course. And I'm pretty sure sexual harassment is common EVERYWHERE it's just HEAVILY under reported.

It definitely is, but Hollywood has way too many.
Animations are excluded, mostly.

Tfw I thought Cars 1 and 3 were good ;-; 2 was weird, it just didn't make much sense.

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying
