  • Okay ah see to me it was almost a tell that you already knew the sources, didn’t know you had to figure out where they were from.

    Okay I’m trying to think:

    • Attach a debugger to your kernel, break right when you hear the noise, and then do a full memory dump. Then share it with us here. If you have to be crafty, write a script to send a break right when sound emits. You might need a second computer for this.






  • I’m glad I’m not the only one who played Roblox growing up… But like over a decade ago. Weird to see it still around.

    Random memories:

    • couldn’t figure out how to drive vehicles (equip the drive tool and press T or something)

    • there used to be a FREE currency called TIX that they gutted

    • the old sound effects

    • the old forcefield effect

    • killing yourself precisely so that your head bounced onto the obby’s next spawn point skipping the obstacle

    -games were so much less commercialized, but they were also for the most part games made by other kids, they lacked the labor required to make a GAME game, but had charm. The fun games were FUN, and all they really offered in terms of monetization were VIP t shirts

    • desert Base Battle, ultimate paintball, ultimate build, sword fight on the heights, galleons, work at Pizza place, disaster survival

    • mashing yourself under geometry only slightly higher than you are, and then holding spacebar until you jump so hard your character model shoots out at a random tangent at Mach speed

    • calling my friend to play, using the wireless house phone, holding it against my ear with my shoulder for hours until I got cramps

    • constant status bars at the bottom from scripts included in free models “the maker of this place would like to thank xyzname for using their models!”

    • magic path tools, rocket launchers, slingshots, bombs, swords

    • Roblox is the reason I’m a programmer today, I was diving into LUA when I was a kid
