It's not the JP Famicom's sound chip, but a bundled Konami chip on the cartridge called the VRC6. We didn't get it in the US (or anywhere besides JP) because Nintendo has always been Nintendo and didn't let companies manufacture their own cartridges outside of the Japanese market so the fancy...

Something that I don't think people are putting enough thought into is that Hololive is a challenging job that requires a stupid time investment and everyone who is leaving has been there for a significant amount of time. Work like this burns people out, even if you enjoy it, and sooner or...

Just think of Dutch as "German on a perpetual bender" and it gets extra funny. I even made a cousin from NRW go "Oh, it's easier to understand that way, I'd always tried treating it as a foreign language."

Autotune effects can be done in real time, take Aloe/Delutaya doing Happy Synthesizer. Whether you're using a rack unit or VSTs, it'll be no problem to do that song live... it's just a matter of why you'd want to return our attention to that song.

Watamates potentially soon to have a mega-win since Budokan has a 14k seating capacity. Incredibly cool seeing Cover talents moving into legitimately large venues. Watame has had a Budokan performance as a goal for years and, with Miko having Flower Fantasia in Ariake Arena (13k seats) and...

Listen, the few of us Gen Xers on this board who were in college last century weren't around for Caesar, we had to settle for Charlemagne

Matara: uses Hollywood to refer to Nijisanji where the big problems where a shit corporation, shit coworkers, and a shit audience Matara: Joins real Hollywood via WME and is now swimming with real sharks instead of chronically online internet children. GOOD LUCK BUG LADY!

Shouldn't you be mad at Warren Ellis since he created and wrote the show (and used the same basic handful of character personalities that he's used in everything since the 90s)? As penance for bringing up that irritating British crank, have Kumarine

A lot of video games are a decent way to work on your comprehension since they're usually targeted at a middle school reading level. For my fellow "will the Kanji learning ever end?" bros, that's nice because it means that you can start to read most things in the game since the kanji will be...

Amateur singers and destroying their voice because of bad/unsustainable technique, name a more iconic duo! (It's any singer and being such a clueless musical retard that even bass players look like Nobel laureates next to them)

The major problem that the PS3 had, with respect to multiplatform development, was that its memory management was a nightmare in comparison to the 360. The 360 had 512 MB of memory that could be allotted on the fly to system or video memory. The PS3 had fixed 256 MB of system memory and fixed...

I can't remember the proper Arabic term off of the top of my head, but Islamic metaphysics began to take a view that reality is wholly predestined by God, destroyed and recreated anew every instant to progress time, so therefore what purpose is there in trying to dig into the nature of reality...

GET FUCKED, VICTOR IRELAND!!!! Hopefully the new versions don't have all of his dipshit changes that plagued the original US releases of the games.

This is a big and complicating thing in an employment contract. I was in the QA mines at a major video game company for 5 years and they had what we referred to as the "we own your brain" clause. In our case it was a first right of refusal for anything you made that you wanted to publish or...

Street race but the winner is the driver who killed the fewest pedestrians on the way

Raden's aware that her voice isn't great. Not long after she debuted, she told a story about how she started with a vocal coach as soon as she was hired by Cover. Her demonstration to the vocal coach of her preexisting level of singing skill was so bad that the coach looked visibly horrified...

Goob's face doesn't skate around all weird now. Nice!

Given both the spectrum of both dance and singing skills for the performers, I'd imagine the live performances are limited to those that are demonstrated to be completely consistent. Suisei and Calli, for example, have demonstrated the ability to perform live many times in the past and...

Since the graduation is over, here's a big dump of bittersweet Aqua art that I've come across in the last week

For home users, 3D printing fills the same niche as Raspberry Pi, Arduino, or AI art: it's a way to get a toy project complete without having to learn much of anything. You could learn actual design and machining (and there's way more you can do on a cheap and crappy little Chinese minimill or...
