Sorry everyone, I opened a new branch off the 2003 release while I was researching some of the bugs in the legacy code. That wasn't supposed to get merged in...

yep, the bug triggers when a political party overflows its buffer. The funny thing is, the system still catches the error and spams the logs with FATAL error messages, but the system has been throwing them for so long and seems to still be chugging along so we kind of ignore them. One of the original devs made a comment about how someone should fix it right before leaving the team. Anyway, the effect tends to accumulate, so if you deploy it to prod and don't fix it, eventually you get... this.

My bad.

Fix it Fix it Fix it Fix it!

(I tried to find the Futurama meme of that, but my phone said No)

Trying, I'm stuck on a bridge with some of the seniors right now. One of them wants to "just push through and see what happens" and roll forward with the change, the other one disapproves but clearly has no idea what else to do. Nobody seems to want to even propose a plan because then they'd be on the hook for it, so we just keep going back and forth and not. ending. the call.

This just further confirms that the world simulation actually did break from the y2k bug. We fixed the bug in here, but no one fixed the simulation. The cascade failure has just been spreading out of control since then. Now we have recursion errors! The sim tried to restart but it's all corrupt lol.

we are likely to hit a new carboniferous period.

It's going to suck for us, but rule for plants... and musically.

20 year retro rule strikes again.

RIP 90s retro, you didn't even get to exist because of the fucking 80s overstaying their already tired ass dead eyed bullshit

[–] jj4211@lemmy.world 31 points 4 months ago (14 children)

90s just never really left.

TV wise, providers still fight hard for Friends and Seinfeld. I still see teenagers slapping on Nirvana shirts. My clothes from back then still fit and are intact and a kid at my kids school asked me where I got my clothes because they wanted some just like them.

[–] jj4211@lemmy.world 10 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Well, they didn't fit for many years and then I lost a bunch of weight and could wear them again, so they just mostly survived a closet..

2003? Ok, peeps, in about 13 years time there's going to be an issue at a zoo. DO NOT LET ANYONE KILL HARAMBE!
We must not go on that timeline again!!!

Heroin chics are also back via ozempic from a bit earlier

[–] GregorGizeh@lemmy.zip 7 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (2 children)

Wait is this heroin chic? I would think she is ~~too curvy~~ not skinny enough for that.

[–] RickyRigatoni@piefed.zip 13 points 4 months ago

If I can't see her ribcage it's not heroin chic.

[–] hansolo@lemmy.today 10 points 4 months ago

It's not. That was the 90s, early 2000s were full of just super trashy looks and women acting dumb due to overt misogyny being a cornerstone of most popular media at the time.

So, corporate is relying on AI for creativity and as such, the only option remaining is to reboot old successes.

Wait there’s new King of the Hill?

[–] ArcaneSlime@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (2 children)

Yup, it's still good, most of the OG staff (both voice and writing) is back except of course for the dead people. The changed voices are Dale, Ted Wassonassong, Kahn, and we'll see about John Redcorn (passed after next season was already recorded, iirc, so season 16 is the first since his death..I think). The animation is more modern because the old techniques are now long dead. They did not address Luanne and Lucky, but I hope they will in S15. And they have already been renewed for S16 and S17, S15 is already in the can awaiting release this year. 15ish years (in the show) have passed since S13 ended.

I recommend it.

[–] ayyy@sh.itjust.works 25 points 4 months ago (1 children)

It’s worth noting that the actor for John Redcorn didn’t just pass, he was murdered in a hate crime by a white supremacist and then the Texas cops buried the case.

[–] ArcaneSlime@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 4 months ago (3 children)

Sigfredo Ceja Alvarez, the man who shot him, had his pre-trial last month and has a new court date (which I just tried to find but couldn't yet) is set for the future, so the case is going forward.
