watching massive franchises bomb at the box office while Backrooms has made $212 million on a $10 million initial budget has brought me hope for the future of cinema
audiences do NOT want Star Wars slop, audiences want a movie made by a guy who really wanted to make a movie
Star Wars never was more to me than "the thing that had cool LEGO pieces when I was a kid", and from what I have heard even their sets are now dogshit.
I am franchise/"IP" fatigued in general though.
Found out that theres just no explanation for where the neopets faeries come from or how they can apparently have generations of families lol,, so theories:
Apology not fucking accepted
From the same article:
And pop-up advertising was born. Zuckerman, who now works for the Centre for Civic Media at MIT, bemoans the current ad-supported state of the web. Believing that “advertising is the original sin of the web” and that “the fallen state of our Internet is a direct, if unintentional, consequence of choosing advertising as the default model to support online content and services.
That is just a very nice way of saying "I didn't think about it".
A crossover for the ages.

STOP THIS IS SO COOL !!!!!
"A Cute Mascot That Won't Make You Uncomfortable" by Mao Watanabe
Interior text translates as
Sometimes we have to look at things that aren't cute and are unpleasant, and if we stop seeing them because "we don't understand them," "they don't concern us," or "they're just unpleasant," eventually even cute things will become unpleasant
Theory on why Tofu hates Markiplier
If you are unfamiliar with Tofu, please read this post or watch this playlist about the snake who hates Markiplier. tl;dr- under the Markiplier gif.
From the videos you can see she tries to figure out what is upsetting Tofu, and found that it's not just streamers, or just his voice, or the stream. This specific snake
He does not like Markiplier specifically which is demonstrated by him squaring up with Mark, striking, and tail buzzing at him. He recognizes Mark specifically as a scary threat.
Animals have been shown to recognize human faces, and Tofu's reaction to Markiplier's face (and only his face as shown by the printout) is strong evidence that he recognizes Mark's face and differentiates him from other faces. With crows, they've been shown to hold grudges and have that grudge extend to other crows.
So Tofu has a negative association with Mark, and specifically Mark. The question is why? My theory is: perceived threat after a perceived dangerous situation. Some have theorized Tofu was mistreated by someone who looked like Mark- if they were while in his keeper's care she'd know. If it was his breeder, he'd more likely be afraid of all humans and need to first get over this negative perception (basing this on how Sakura reacted with massive trauma that took years for her to overcome, and to this day she's still jumpy. A breeder doesn't socialize their snakes so they'd only know humans to be abusive before being adopted, and his current keeper would very much notice that terrified trauma behavior to herself.)
One thing important to know about snakes is they are not only capable of learning from each other, but are protective of each other. I've seen this with my girls interacting with each other (yes snakes have friends and remember their family), learning from watching the other and copying her actions, as well as behavior I've observed on the Rattlecam with wild snakes. Adult snakes teach younger snakes, as well as are protective of them- even if they aren't their own babies. A female was shown on the rattlecam watching over a group of slitherlings that were obviously not her offspring as she was heavily pregnant. IIRC that same female ushered babies to safety after a hawk attack before worrying about her own safety. I've seen it in person as well with my girls, who have shielded each other from perceived danger, and scoria also squared up to something scary in the hall as though she were protecting me. And when it left she immediately went back to being relaxed and cuddly and happy. Snakes have friends that are snakes. It's an outdated belief snakes cannot bond with their keepers, as many do and seek them out for attention. These observations of snake behavior are part of what play into my theory basis.
So what could Mark himself have done? If you watch streamers you'll know Markiplier is known for playing jumpscare games with his FNAF let's plays being some of his most well known. Tofu's owner knows Markiplier, and is actively watching Markiplier with Tofu. More than likely she regularly watches Mark, has watched jumpscare videos, and had Tofu around while doing this.
It's a reasonable assumption. And if Tofu's keeper reacts to Mark's jump scare videos by flinching, looking frightened, or making frightened sounds, it's quite likely Tofu's sees Markiplier is involved every time... and blames Mark. Seeing his keeper get startled, Tofu doesn't understand it's a fun video or that humans enjoy being jumpscared (honestly I don't think I could explain it to him either) so he's learning from his human that Markiplier is a scary threat.
And from Tofu's point of view? He's right! Markiplier is a regular threat that not only (probably) scared his human, but regularly appears to stare him down and even went after him in his own home! And when his keeper scolds him? It's likely the same misunderstanding that dogs have when their owners yell at them to be quiet- they think the human has joined in! Clearly his keeper is joining him in being upset at Mark!
So in Tofu's mind? Mark is a diabolical threat to his family's safety that he must defend them against, and they are united with their keeper in their efforts to drive away that scary scary guy. You are very brave Tofu, and we are all very proud of you.
dealing with code written by scientists who are bad at programming? obnoxious at worst. generally simple enough that you're better off rewriting most of it.
dealing with code written by scientists who are good at programming? absolutely terrifying. you are presented with a hundred thousand lines of python code written by someone who has no formal training and whose first programming experience was teaching themselves fortran 77 on an old mainframe computer. not a single good practice convention is followed. unreadable syntax tricks you've never seen before are used to save like two or three lines here and there. there are absolutely arcane performance optimizations that have never been seen outside of like one paper published in the 90s and make the program like 5% faster. there's also freshman CS student level optimizations that they completely missed. there is basically no documentation. you are left to learn how it works with the source code and a dozen examples which have maybe three or four comments between them. good luck. may god save your soul.

The worst part is that we basically created data bases that store Reddit/Stackoverflow/Quora posts from 11 years ago but have a 30% chance of making one up instead.

So apparently someone found the lost episode of KTMA, K03, Star Force. It was found at a garage sale around Minneapolis and has been fully digitized. :)
