Imports (Was: {brace yourselves} the import is coming {Spoiler Alert: Not all of it} [i.e. blakeyrat was not utterly wrong for the first time ever] Filed under: append-only titles.)

Or maybe bronze was a different colour back then.
Or maybe humans hadn't evolved the ability to see the blue part of the spectrum back then
-
Or the translators are massive trolls.

Fooled the Trojans.

Was the material a different color? (I'm sorry, colour)?
I guess Mythbusters have to re-evaluate their mirror laser (lazer).

How exactly did we move from "forum imports" to "blakeyrant about forum imports" and then directly to "romans called the sky bronze" without anything in between?
-
So, you are having fun with it.
Because that's very much a part of it for me.
I'm fully aware that people can think differently and successfully build societies on different concepts. They might be wrongTM, but as long as everyone agrees on the same rules.... it can work.
The head-butting is entertaining though, and it's better than starting an actual war.

You must be new here?

Usually we have more offshoots before the conversation takes a drastic shift.

You missed the side discussion about the selection popup for bannering/pinning being awful and the
bluebronze background being painful to some.
-
Thank god.

sky-bronze!
As for the rant. Blakey is fully capable of interjecting rants spontaneously.

Exactly here, when the banner was removed and the blue went with it.
Oh thank heavens, no more sky-bronze!

So, is this episode finally over with?
The episode might be, but the series is still going. I know there are a lot of posts that haven't been imported yet.
-
Just so long as it doesn't get renewed for season 2; it's a crap show
-
Something something 6 seasons and a movie.

When I played Fallout 3, everything looked red for about an hour after I turned it off. I assumed sky-bronze referred to this phenomenon:

I'm sorry.
No I'm not!

Could be worse. Imagine a dragonball-scale series of series.

We've already had entire episodes of getting ready to do something next episode

Here's the soundtrack:

I'm seeing a large infant with head on backwards using a spoon to hit metal trees, and smiling big with shark teeth.
Thank you creepy pasta, you know so well I don't like sleep.

I'm sure one of us has been yelling for days.
And someone else has had eyes darting back and forth acting like their slow eye movements are keeping up with FTL fighting.

I'd listen, but Soundcloud is blocked because ~reasons~

A form of music used for entertainment originating in The Grasping Oaks. The form guides musicians during improvised performances. A chanter recites the words of a (name of poetic form here) while the music is played on a rofela. The entire performance slows and broadens. It is performed using the tarathe scale and in the bulifo rhythm. Throughout, when possible, performers are to use grace notes, alternate tension and repose and play arpeggios.
The chanter always does the main melody, should be passionate and is to be loud.
The rofela always does the main melody, should be melancholic and is to be soft.
The form has a well-defined multi-passage structure: a theme, a brief exposition of the theme and a brief recapitulation of the theme.
Scales are constructed from twenty-four notes spaced evenly throughout the octave. The tonic note is a fixed tone passed from teacher to student. After a scale is constructed, the root note of chords are named. The names are cuthefi (spoken cu) and cede (ce).
The tarathe pentatonic scale is thought of as joined chords spanning a perfect fifth and a perfect fourth. These chords are named aratha and fathinu.
The aratha tetrachord is the 1st, the 4th, the 9th and the 15th degrees of the quartertone octave scale.
The fathinu trichord is the 15th, the 19th and the 25th (completing the octave) degrees of the quartertone octave scale.
The bulifo rhythm is made from two patterns: the emu (considered the primary) and the otoga. The patterns are to be played in the same beat, allowing one to repeat before the other is concluded.
The emu rhythm is a single line with twenty-seven beats divided into five bars in a 7-6-4-6-4 pattern. The beat is stressed as follows:
| - - x x - - x | - - x x - x | - - x - | - - - x x - | x x x x |
where x is a beat, - is silent and | indicates a bar.The otoga rhythm is a single line with eighteen beats divided into two bars in a 11-7 pattern. The beat is stressed as follows:
| x - - x x x - - x - - | x - x - - - - |
where x is a beat, - is silent and | indicates a bar.It's a recording of someone hitting a metal pot with a wooden spoon.

There's no typo in the post you're replying to.

I am right; keeping the old forum online in read-only mode was the right thing to do last July, and it's the right thing to do now.
Unless somebody feels like going through every old post and changing every forum.tdwtf link to point to the correct place on what.twdtf, then we probably still need the old forum content to remain in place even once the import is finished...

If only there was a script that could do something like that…

If I write one now, it might get run some time in 2026.

How do you interpret that to be blue?

Programming is like art.
So much so, that your software is only valued and used correctly after you die.
(die as in leave the company, no longer work on the project, etc).

Yeah, fallout should have just gone for super saturation, instead of green.
Would have loved to play the game like it was a trip.
Saturation could increase with radiation level.
