Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

Deep down, I always felt like I should've been born a Roller Coaster Tycoon. My new pronouns will be 🎒 / 🎩

Hello everyone and welcome to another video.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 11 months ago

Aha! A wild Marcel fan appears.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 11 months ago

Drowning patrons is my passion.

Uh er, building roller coasters, I mean.

- Yeah, but what’s in your pants?

- Doom.

[–] [email protected] 55 points 11 months ago (3 children)

DOOM shareware was 2.39 MB, so technically your gender only includes Knee Deep In The Dead if you upload that one. The full game with all three episodes came on four 1.44 MB floppies, so 6-ish MB

6 meg is still less than 10 meg right? I am not doing the maths wrong, am I?

[–] [email protected] 28 points 11 months ago

Your maths are good, we may be able to fit a Commander Keen or two in there as well!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

You are correct, I'm just saying that if you upload the 2.39 MB one, your gender is incomplete

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

Yeah -- I might have figured that out after I posted the comment -- sorry.

Sometimes I see something, react to it, then my brain catches up with what I just read, and I think "now I feel stupid" :)

And I thought that was a huge storage hog at the time.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

Were they compressed? I assume compression algorithms have gotten better so you can compress it down from 6 MB. I know you are compressing your gender but it's lossless compression so it should be fine.

I usually prefer a text field, because then I can identify as

; DROP TABLE users;

[–] [email protected] 31 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Bobby Tables? Is that you?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 11 months ago (1 children)

And how is your sister, Help I'm trapped in a driving license factory?

My pronouns are all SQL injections

I had the floppy disk version of that because I didn't have a CD-ROM drive yet, and it took like 19 floppies to install. Most pain in the ass installation of my life. Worth it though.

This really is unironically good UI.

In fact, they should do the same thing with the name field.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 11 months ago

Hmm. I definitely remember the original SimCity fitting on two 3.5" floppies (2.88 MB max), but my SimCity 2000 Special Edition came on CD-ROM so I'm not sure it would fit in 10 MB.
