NeptuneUK! Did you become a musician? I seem to remember you were into that, and NIN. I'm here serendipitously because it's raining outside and I wish my housemate wasn't here, mostly because I actually am craving solitude, ironically. Woohoo!
Hi Lucid. How are you?
It seems like the current state of HL2.net is such that people are orbiting around their own gravitational centers, wherever that is. Only to check this site on occasion. I'm not terribly skilled when it comes to writing these days so that metaphor will have to do. Also...
Hmm, that's a little sad, TBH.
I was browsing yesterday because I needed to retrieve information that was in this forum, and took a glance at the front page and noticed how many others seem to also feel the nostalgia, just looking at the first page of The Lounge with variations of "Hey, what's...
Are bulletin-style internet forums still popular in the age of social media? I feel like things like online communities have dissipated with the rise of FB, reddit, and numerous other things.
I could've sworn this forum software sent me an email notification last tim I was quoted!
Good heavens
Oh, pfff-huh-huck! Anybody remember that one time where some of us went into this collaborative-whiteboard-style space and people just drew shit together? I came here to ask this
But now I...
I can't either. If I'm gone physically (as in from the online forum) I return through my memory, perhaps because of how much I invested while I was active here...
But anyway, anybody know of Shippi's whereabouts? (Ooh, can you tag people with this version of vbulletin, or whatever forum...
Hah! Hell yeah, man. Growing up was weird because few people around me shared my taste for music, which was derived almost wholly from here. I have yet to find a lot of people who share my taste although I feel like I'm getting there.
Anyway, I randomly decided to drop by and check on this...
Sulkdodds, this post is going to pretty much come out of the blue, and I've read some of the responses from here and they're all cool but I just want to know one thing for now: how do you know so damn much? Like, from your post, you're able to do incredible things with language, and that's due...
You know, this reminds me of an idea i've had recently which i'm sure is unoriginal, but stuff like this ought to be considered art. If you think about it, the fact that this same phenomenon is cropping up and drawing members from different communities to be impressed in different ways, discuss...
I've evaluated why I tend to do what I do from not just a moral point of view but from a general one, and I compare my actions to cycles, or wavelengths, or patterns of energy that oscillate according to pre-existing ideas or principles from the world from which I base all my actions on in an...
The first step in listening to good music for me was from here.
Someone long ago here linked to pitchfork which is how I got to know **** Buttons, Battles, Burial, Fennesz, Lindstrom, and probably a bunch of other perishable bands that I have happened to really like throughout these times.
I...
I'm trying to import video from an old camera which has these small cassettes. It can interface with the computer through a Firewire cable. What I wanna do is import video using software other than Windows Live Movie Maker, which will import the video in ridiculous sizes (20+ gigs) without a...
I was in a car accident close to New Year's two years ago caused by a cab driver crossing a red light while he was missing around with his cell phone. Human damage was nowhere near as severe, but goddamn was it scary. And life-changing.
They always say that life is short, that you should make...
