Better with sound. There's a few extra ones there as well.

Why would you have people staying inside the shields in space invaders? Why?!
I've shot through those shields myself.
Oh God... What have I done?!

That was the most disturbing part. TIL, in order to save the human race, I'm willing to sacrifice many lives even if it means taking them with my own hands.

It's not really all that disturbing when you consider, there are no people in the shields.

Not to mention attribution.

Thanks. What is it with this fondness people seem to have for giant animated GIFs lately, where higher resolution, better quality, quicker loading video is available (i.e., without the hideous dithering and reduced palette)? Where's the attraction in this?

It seems strange to me because, while GIFs have been around longer than the web, I don't recall them being considered a suitable format for this sort of thing until very recently, when such radically superior options have long since become available. What gives?

[–]Magrippinho 2 points3 points ago

I guess it's a "retro comeback" type of trend, also playing on the fact that you can just link to the .gif, while you can't just link to the source for most of the other formats, you have to show the rest of the page as well.

(Not that I consider that a bad thing, proper attribution & ad revenue for the folks creating these is a good thing)

I wonder if you caught the great Impenetrable_Taco and friends gif invasion over at r/offbeat a short while ago. Subscribers questioned, investigated and downvoted--things went better than expected. We still get a few gifs sneaking through, but things have settled down a lot.

Why do people do gifs? I think it might be easier to get somebody to click/upvote a picture than a video. (instant gratification). Perhaps to avoid "other discussion" reposts? I really don't know, to tell you the truth.

All we can do is fight back with our vote (especially important in the new queue to nip at the bud).

To steal the work by hiding the credit.

[–]ElliotNess 1 point2 points ago

yeah. also, I guess they're trying to SEO their http://rankmaniac2011.wenkakes.com/ site

[–]ElectronicDrug 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Which is now unsurprisingly down.

[–]ElliotNess 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

it's weird. if you go to the OP link and then remove everything except for the rankmaniak2011.wenkakes.com from your address bar, hit enter, and then you can load the site in basic directory form. Basically it's a bunch of short posts about moving up in page rank on Bing.

but if you click on any of its links or enter the domain manually, it will give you an error.

I don't know very much at all about web design so I'm not sure exactly what is happening or why.

To be perfectly honest, I've never heard of a more complete and thought out answer than this. If i copy/paste and give you credit, will you let me use this?

You just made mine worse, so at least someone's being effective.

There's only 2 triforces in the original Zelda.

"But TRI means 3!" In the original game triforce was referring to the TRIangle shape. It wasn't until Zelda II: The Adventure of Link that a third triforce came into the picture.
