I mean I feel like we're kinda at a point where Fairly Oddparents had more cultural staying power than NSYNC as a group so I'm not entirely surprised

The visual gags in this show have only gotten better and better.

Mentally im here

Won several plush toys at the crane machine. Gave 2 away. Keeping this one, for now. He has an honest face.

Oooooold Pachirisu art 🍋⚡️

That water clarity is an engineering decision, and the math behind it is wilder than the video. Roman aqueducts ran on gravity alone. No pumps, no pressure systems. Engineers carved channels with a gradient so shallow it borders on absurd. The Pont du Gard in southern France drops 2.5 centimeters over 275 meters. That's roughly the thickness of a coin over the length of three football fields. They surveyed that accuracy with plumb lines and wooden leveling instruments. The clarity you're seeing is a direct product of flow velocity. Too steep and the water erodes the channel walls, picks up sediment, turns brown. Too flat and it stagnates. Roman engineers targeted a slope of about 20 centimeters per kilometer, which kept the water moving fast enough to stay fresh but slow enough to stay clear. Before the water reached the city, it passed through multi-chamber settling tanks where velocity dropped near zero. Suspended particles sank. Clean water flowed out the top into the next chamber. Repeat three or four times. Pliny specified the minimum slope in writing. Vitruvius published the exact mortar ratio for hydraulic cement: one part lime to two parts volcanic ash for underwater work. The pozzolana from Pozzuoli reacted with water to form a calcium-aluminum-silicate compound that actually gets stronger the longer it sits submerged. Modern concrete degrades in water. Roman concrete bonds with it. Scale the whole system and it gets harder to process. Eleven aqueducts fed Rome at its peak. Combined output: roughly 1 million cubic meters of water per day. That works out to about 250 gallons per person for a city of one million. Modern New York delivers about 125 gallons per person per day. Ancient Rome had access to double the per capita water supply of the largest city in the United States, running entirely on slope and stone. The Trevi Fountain in Rome is still fed by one of them. Two thousand years, same source, same gravity, same water.

Where is this?

These mini consoles would've been more exciting if they were rereleases of the original hardware and not emulators. I could never understand the excitement for them seeing as how NES/SNES emulators are some of the most widely available and accessible.

@miscrave @LooneyLoaiza I'll take Spongebob any day over Teen Titans Go, or worse, Cocomelon.

@LooneyLoaiza @Masterge77 SpongeBob is a safe lowest common denominator option for anyone who needs to turn on the channel and have something to entertain a kid and/or have on the background. On the air TV is a while different games from what it was even in the pre streaming era, it fulfills niches.

They literally became the very meme they had been mocked for. Irony no longer exists, Nickelodeon is dead.

I found out on Instagram that Paul J. Bolger (an artist who worked on films like “All Dogs Go to Heaven” and “Loving Vincent”) is directing a film called “Outfoxed!”, set for summer 2027. This marks his first directed film since “Happily N’Ever After” 2 decades prior.

This entire thread is the reason why I am not part of any anime fandoms, especially when the "purists" accuse anyone who likes the popular shows of being "tourists" while all the "purists" consume is slice-of-life high school stuff with lots of fan-service and nothing else.
