The morphing does look similar. It had short looping animations that start childish and cartoony, then would slowly progress and become more scary and adult themed, representing the journey from birth to adulthood.
This style of looping animation reminds me strongly of a short video I saw many years ago. It’s set to a song and features similar animated looping and morphing characters representing different stages of life, growing up, falling in love, etc. Black, white, yellows and reds. I can’t seem to find it now but I believe it had a creator with a german-sounding name. I may be hallucinating the memory, but I think the animation was titled “Love and Loss”, though I don’t see it anywhere online. Anyone know the one?
I think the first person to use an obfuscated name like lIiḷ|ḷiIl was pretty clever.
Dragostea Din Tei by O-Zone, though I think I heard it on NicoNico Douga before it became known as the NumaNuma Song.
First I just want to say, that is a damn beautiful website. No ads, no popups, just pure information.
And second, as a former back end developer who has spent a huge amount of time working on input sanitization and building database schemas, that list gave me mild PTSD for a job I have never even had.
Great. Now I’m unsure of how to pronounce database as well.
Is it just me or does tapping Lemmy’s “next” button at the bottom of the page incorrectly open the last post like 20% of the time? My thumb may be fat, but I don’t think it’s that fat…
I’m really bad at arithmetic so it took me two years to do the calculations, but the math does check out.
When I first moved to Japan over twenty years ago they were already about a hundred years ahead of typical US toilet/bath technology. For me, using one of these faucets where you can just set the temperature by number was like Liko getting beamed from her hut directly onto the damn Enterprise.
Can they add a little speaker and have it play some smooth jazz when unzipping?
That headline got me really excited before I realized they meant “in an app”.
If this was filmed in the late sixties using an older orthicon camera it might be an artifact of the way that the image is produced.
I'm just going from memory, but I believe the tubes used a brightness-amplifying screen kept charged with electrons that, when struck by light, would result in a brighter image that could be scanned by a beam. The downside of this technique is that a very bright area would suck up electrons from around it faster than they could recharge, resulting in a dark halo.
I think I remember some of the oldest classic Doctor Who episodes has this visual artifact, as well as some old Beatles TV recordings.
Poor VR support. I’d probably switch if it ever becomes stable.
