What is the strangest piece of food or drink you have eaten
I need to add some reaction emotes to these posts, no way to give a thumbs up or anything.That sounds bizarre, but then there are deep fried mars bars and all that so I understand your reasoning. One can currently post an emote within the messages to express a reaction, though I do get where your coming from though and it would be a cool feature. Sometimes emotes express more than words can convey. It really was, don't know if it was the most reasonable thing for me to do at the time but it was certainly a fun experiment and I can look back and laugh with my past self, yeah the world of mixed sugar foods gets weirder by the month/year and it,ll probably continue to do so.

I would not have the mental willpower to consume a Pigs cheek let alone it's head, as for regular pork though yummy, yummy, yummy. As for the strangest piece of food I've eaten, back in college I consumed a Dairy Milk Chocolate Bar with Tomato Ketchup spread ontop, I think my general thought process at the time was ''What weird things can I mix and eat together'' The taste was.....quite overpowering, would I consume such a thing again? hmm....maybe''

Journal of the Whills - Discussion
Thank you for your sympathy. I think you're right. Ah well, hopefully I'll be able to do a hardware export soon! And it'll be done in a day, maybe two.

I'm sorry to hear of these woes. it sounds like a real headache. I don't know if it's the same as resolve, but I think those adjustment layers may be the culprit of your long render time. I know that as you add complexity to each frame in resolve it just makes things spiral. I find it's better to keep an edit as flat as possible.

So... I started on the export. But... (image) It is going to take 12 days! Yeah, I am not going to do that. It is like this because it is a software export. Hardware exports tend to crasha lot. All my previous exports were software exports, but never have they been twelve days. So I have been attempting to solve the crash problem. First I tried reducing the load by pre-exporting the After Effects sequences instead of relying on Dynamic Link. But then I found out that prolonged NESTED SEQUENCES cause the hardware export to crash. So now I must un-nest all my nested sequences. Very tedious indeed. Additionally, this has caused me to research video editors. Apparently, Premiere Pro is the most flexible, but as a result prone to problems. Avid Media Composer is the most reliable, but very tedious to work with. Da Vinci Resolve is somewhere in the middle. Indeed, I might switch to Resolve if I ever edit any videos again after this. I like the work-flow in Premiere, the timeline is snappy, but the problems are numerous and the color grading is inefficient. While working on these very time-consuming issues, I keep finding minute improvements I can make to the edit itself. I have improved the dialogue, the soundtrack, but most of all the color grading is something that can endlessly be improved. As such I have resolved to only eliminate the most problematic instances of said color grading. The main problem is that some parts look too purple, but in a manner that is very difficult to eliminate. Because of the persistent purplenesses I have applied adjustment layers throughout the entire edit, but I had gone way too far in doing so, dulling the colors, and still purple sequences remained. More recently, I have been dialing back the effects of the adjustment layers, but it is truly a terrible process that drains me of life. Hence once again: Da Vinci Resolve. No More "Lumetri Color"!

What is the last movie you watched and what did you think?
"How can you not like Disney's Robin Hood?" This isn't a question. This is a rhetorical question - rhetorical questions by nature have implied answers and stances in the situation "in question". Doing this, then asking what I thought at the very end defeats the obviously low effort post. Go make a tumblr and review movies

Movie News
We got the teaser, and I like it, but I'm curious to know what you all think. It kinda lost me towards the end. It had promise but then it showed He-Man fighting Skeletor and it felt a bit flat. I hoped for something more like this - (video) triadne wrote:We don't have a movies and TV forum, so ideally we need to focus on this being movie news and have a separate topic for tv news.Edit: or if you like, you can make two new topics and I cn... I can edit the title in the database if need be. I think this is okay for now.

If you don't know what I mean then perhaps it might be best if you don't continue to post until you do know what I mean. Because taking part in a community comes with inherent social contracts that you do need to meet with.

I watched Robin Hood today, the 1973 animated Disney feature version and I really liked it.I've seen it many times before as a kid, but on this rewatch it was still great!How can you not like Disney's... still looks a bit like a review. Perhaps this is a difficult one for you, but you'll need to study how other people post these things and improve your style. I was feeling like replying until you started making some statements that felt like they weren't really engaging with me or other people. read conversation threads and see how people respond to each other. for example, inightmares spoke to you and you haven't acknowledged him. This comes across as rude. I have some thoughts about this film, but after reading your post I don't really feel like sharing because I didn't get the impression that you want to know what I think.

I watched Robin Hood today, the 1973 animated Disney feature version and I really liked it. I've seen it many times before as a kid, but on this rewatch it was still great! How can you not like Disney's Robin Hood? I'll admit it Isn't a Disney classic in pushing the artform of animation or even screenwriting but it is good Disney fun, it's a perfect adaptation for what you'd think Disney would do with Robin Hood in animation. Robin's not some guy, he's a fox! The sheriff isn't some big old mean scoundrel fellow, he's a wolf, I think the film perfectly captures Disney charm and still has some great humor and fun sequences. Particularly the fight during the arrow tournament is a lot of fun. Yes the film is cheap and that should be noted, that's quite shameful, but still I enjoyed it and I always have. What do you all think? I'd give it honestly a 7/10

Im confused what I did wrong? This is a last movie you watched forum? and I thought like fe.org we'd post the film we watched and then talk if prompted by other members? Your reviews are not discussions, they're blog posts. When you do it across multiple websites it doesn't seem like you wanna chat. You've been doing this for a long, long time, just dropping reviews with no conversational element.

reworked topic and reply systems for stability
I've worked on this a bit more, improving the handling of topics with more than 20 replies. I have enabled pagination, so you can go to page 2 or 3 or 4, etc. I've also had to take a fresh approach to the individual post queries so that the page loads the right topic AND goes to the right post. I was uncomfortable with redirects, so I've made the server check for the right page, then include a small script that moves to the right post. This gives a clean URL and ensures you end up on the right page in cases of deleted posts moving some posts onto a different page. That means https://fanworx.org/topic?id=77&post=272 should reliably go to this topic and this post, no matter what. This feels like a very stable approach.

I'm confused slightly I guess I'm used to the fe.org system, but ok. I also made a movie news forum just now, which I tried to spark engagement along with my news. :}

I think it's about the way you posted it. It's copy and paste reviews. That don't feel like they are conversational, giving people the feeling that they can reply and talk about it. Think about whether your post is inviting a response from other people. for example, right now, we are talking. This is what a forum is meant to be for, a back and forth. But if your posts aren't inviting a back and forth, then it might not be appropriate for within a forum. It's not necessarily about 'doing wrong', it's about how it effects the potential conversation.
