irmoz,

You’re starting to sound hostile towards people who suffered

irmoz,

The vibe you’re giving is "I didn’t experience that, so you must be confused.’

irmoz,

No, you didn’t

irmoz, (edited )

Your evidence is… the comment i responded to? Not very compelling. It doesn’t feature you giving any sympathy, just saying you don’t get it. And the implication thus far is that you simply can’t conceive of it happening. Not the most empathetic stance, is it?

It reminds me of the guys that claim sexism no longer exists, asking “but where is there any sexism?” And then shooting down all examples as not counting, continuing to ask “where is this sexism?”

irmoz, (edited )

I have no idea why you thought I claimed you were looking for sympathy. You must not have actually read it properly. I said you are not giving sympathy. And yeah - I didn’t give you an explanation, exactly because other people have. That’s kinda the point I was making - others have already explained it to you, and your bewildered “oh golly gee, people aren’t that mean!” attitude struck me as resisting to believe people can actually be so cruel. Not just aghast at it, but refusing to actually believe they are telling the truth and not just mistaken.

Literally every response of yours to people explaining how they were abused for showing emotion.

Your first comment, especially:

And why would you be ridiculed and scorned for opening up emotionally?

None of this meme makes sense to me.

Stop making this more complicated than it actually is. Accept the criticism and grow as a person.

irmoz,

You don’t see how that comes across as challenging the truth of their story?

If you wanna be pedantic, it’s chiptune. You use trackers to make chiptune. And scene music is a niche within a niche.

irmoz,

Only much later did “chiptune” become a catch-all for all old computer music

It’s much later now m8

irmoz,

Chiptune only “specifically” means music produced the same way as retro games, which necessitates a tracker. If they’re using a standard DAW, then it’s basically “cheating” lmao.

irmoz, (edited )

Trackers are direct replications of the software used to make retro game music; specifically NES and SNES.

irmoz, (edited )

You’re telling me shit I already know and trying to twist the facts. Whether the NES and SNES used synth or samples is immaterial to how the music was programmed. Trackers are literally made for programming MIDI instructions, just as those old games had their music programmed.

The number of voices and voice type changes nothing. You’re just trying to add in immaterial facts to add false weight to your assertion.

irmoz,

I suppose you never discovered that MIDI can trigger samples, too.

irmoz,

Mate you’re not gonna convince me that “tracker music” is anything but a vague term. You might have a point in it describing music made wth a tracker, but with Renoise existing these days, that isn’t exactly very specific is it? We call these pieces “scene music”, or even “keygen music” if you’re new to it. It’s as useful as saying “DAW music”. The music made in the style of old retro games is more specific than just “it was made with a tracker”. That is exactly why the term “chiptune” exists; it’s music that is made with those old sound chips, or emulations of them. That gets to the heart of the issue.

irmoz,

His final form would in fact be spread amongst the various shits of the BBQ guests

irmoz,

Not when they are terminally ill, elderly and on a pension.

Not… what?

Other people are allowed to have illnesses and conditions

Ok?

one person with an illness is not an excuse to take advantage of the vulnerable.

Then… stop letting them take advantage of you?

irmoz, (edited )

You changed your tune pretty fucking quick. What happened to his terminal illness being used as an excuse?

irmoz, (edited )

The very first thing they said was “what history? What economics?” - so yeah, they’ve asked for information.

irmoz, (edited )

Dude. It was entirely a deflection. Answer my fucking comment. I have literally no need whatsoever to respect your “recommendation”. It was an attempt to avoid answering my statements and nothing more than that. So go ahead, answer. Or are you too scared?

Also, I have Cowbee’s statements to lean on, which you yourself conceded to, to know what the book is like.

irmoz,

Still not an answer. You can say all you like, but until you answer you are only continuing to deflect.
