Things We Can't Get Into - Pro Crastinators Podcast, Episode 24

[@N7S21813634]

"You guys know why I can't get into sports? There's no level design." Classic.

[@auralunaprettycure]

2:06:52 “Davoo, you should read... There is a fantastic chapter of One Piece” also classic

[@yursaman]

Really miss these days. Almost everyone is gone, completely different, or in not so desirable situations now. It really is heartbreaking to know that the endeavors these guys all go through end up leading nowhere for most of them. It makes me scared for my own path. I hope that one day everyone is able to put aside their differences and agrees to just sit and chat for another podcast, like the good old days.

[@Simp4Gwyn]

I literally have no idea what happened to any of them. I thought they were still doing shit together

[@mega8142]

Meh, I wouldn't let it make you doubt whatever you're doing. The issue with most of the procrastinators were their inability to sacrifice any bit of artistic freedom to get more popular, not did they really take the steps necessary to improve their content. Mother's Basement is the only guy who is still popular because he was happy to clickbait and shill. Digi stayed popular until they strayed off of their old anime content, and has only stopped actively losing subscribers after they started doing it again. BestGuyEver has been on the cusp of making it for years, except he doesn't upload regularly and doesn't have the incentive to, as he has a decent paying regular job. And as for the rest of them? In retrospective it's honestly not at all surprising that a couple of average artists and mediocre youtubers didn't make it. If anything their failure should teach you a lesson, since there's a very clear quality divide between the procrastinators that saw success and the ones that didn't.

[@KennethKraylie]

long post re: classical music I too was at the same point as Digi once. I had respect for classical but I didn't actively enjoy any of it. However once several years ago I had a revelation as a music fan that classical composers from hundreds of years ago weren't any different from the music artists of today. The only difference was they didn't have recording technology or electric amplification so they had to do what they could to accomplish the music they wanted to make with the tools they had at the time. Thinking of it in that light really helped me start to get into the mindset of enjoying classical music. Additionally I discovered that the genres and conventions of classical music are very different than what modern music uses, and learning what those were and how to identify them really helped set things apart. Imagine not being able to tell rap apart from country music, that's pretty much how different many genres of classical music are, and most people who don't know much about classical music are at the "can't tell rap from country phase" of knowing about classical. And yes, learning all that shit *does* require effort. And I'll fully admit that it's completely possible (and even likely) that for many people the effort of learning this stuff is far more effort than it's worth. But as far as I'm concerned the rewards of figuring this stuff out have been more than worth it (I'm certainly willing to wade through a lot of stuff I dont understand if if it ultimately results in me finding some of my favourite music of all time). And unlike your video game premise where old media is built upon by newer media resulting in almost-always superior newer media (which is definitely true of games) music doesn't really work like that (at least not as linearly so anyway), a lot of classical music is insanely complicated, bizarre, and deep in ways that haven't been matched by modern rock/pop/rap/whatever. If anyone is curious but unsure about classical music and looking for a crash course in it I highly recommend looking up (technically it's really expensive to buy, but you can pirate it online if you look hard enough) Robert Greenberg's series "how to listen To and understand great music" (or any of the stuff he's put out). Officially his stuff is billed as "lectures" since it's supposed to teach you about music, but ultimately they play like podcasts and it's actually a series of some of the best analysis I've ever heard going through each genres and forms that classical music takes in chronological order to help people who have never taken the time to listen to it before to seriously figure out what its deal is. (and no, you dont need to be able to read music to listen to them, I can't read music for shit and those still hugely helped me). Now, it's not like I'm a hardcore classical fan or anything (I definitely still listen to more modern music than classical music by a big margin), but I definitely think that there's some kind of classical out there for everyone to love, it's just a super tricky field to navigate cus they're so damn much of it out there. I know that whenever I get sick and tired of current music I can always go back and find some classical thing that will blow my mind all over again. Obviously someone isn't going to like everything they come across, but it's often that they just havent been exposed to something that's totally up their alley (like for fans of prog or more intense and abrasive music the major works by artists like Stravinsky or Bartok could be far more up your alley than stuff by guys like Mozart who focused more on music which fit rigid structural rules. personally I'm a huge fan of Holst's Planets suite because it kind of plays like a 70s prog rock album for instance). Additionally due to the lack of vocals and the fact that many of the most legendary classical works are quite long (most symphonies and concerti = 1 full album of music for example) you do have to be patient and listen to stuff quite a few times before it starts to make cohesive sense. So yeah I obviously wrote a lot here, and I'm aware the mere fact that my explanation is so long yet only barely scratches the surface is exactly the reason why classical music is something that people just cant get into. But for me the effort was very worth it in the long run (certainly more so than country music!) and I'd hope that it would be worth it for other people too.

[@WeebRevolution]

I was wondering why the aspirin I took had no effect then I realized this podcast had cancelled the drug out.

[@McDudes]

Okay let me explain this whole light color thing with objective facts. After all, as a cinematographer I'm educated in light. But now making a to big deal out of this because knowing how you control your color temperature is basic. So there are 2 differential temperatures of light, warm light appears to be more yellow/orange and cold light appears to be blue. (The there's also color shift which is either going towards green or magenta. But that's not important for this discussion so ignore it). Normal Tungsten light bulbs are around 3200 Kelvin (yellow), Incandescent light (Like Digi was talking about) is around 2800 Kelvin which is even warmer. The daylight outside at noon is around 5600 Kelvin which is colder and appears as blue. So why aren't all videos filmed inside yellow? And why aren't all outside videos blue? Well it actually doesn't maters what color temperature the light in your scene has if you whitebalance your camera after the light in your scene! This is simply done by setting it to the right kelvin value or if you can't do that, then use the presets that mostly every cameras has. So if you are outside put the white balance of your camera to either the sun icon (if it's suny) the cloud icon (if it's over cast) and if you are inside put it on the light bulb. But why doesn't Jess think it looks yellow? Well after being under a light source for a while your eyes starts to get accustom to it and sees it as white. For example me and my classmates got an assignment to use crazy colorful light sources. So we ended up lighting the whole living room green, and after about 1 hour our eyes have started to got used to it which in return made us see the day light outside as magenta/purple (the opposite color on the color wheel). So basically by changing the white balance you can make change the color temperature for both inside and outside light and it can go both ways. You can make it look colder, warmer or try to make it as "white" and neutral as possible. But it get's tricky if you have a fluorescent lamp because even though they are a good in between and has more neutral color temperature, then the others. The tricky part is that It can also have a green tint to it. Which is harder to correct in camera and not even all cameras has that option. TLDR: Jess has his camera white balanced to day light which makes the outside look normal but the inside look yellow-ish (warmer) instead.

[@ratska96]

in reference to on of digi's early cut-aways where he was talking about whether or not light could be yellow, yellow is how we perceive light in a certain range of the electromagnetic spectrum, when objects are heated they may begin to emmit photons of varying wavelength (and frequency), and thus ones with diffrent colors. if the object emmits more of light in a certain point spectrum than the others you'll see it as that colour (provided it's in the visible portion of the spectrum). If you want to learn more about it look up what a black body is. In regards to tinted glass, I'm pretty sure those work by only allowing light of a certain frequency/ wavelength through. so you can say that light is yellow, in fact i'd argue that its objects that aren't any color because their color is created by the light the object reflects. in response to the whole yellow argument. when an entire picture is tinted we often mentally adjust to it so that we don't see all the things in the picture as slightly tinted, so in in reality if an object should look a greenish yellow, but the entire picture is tinted slightly yellow we won't see the object as greenish yellow, but jest as green. I feel that the most likely scenario is that endless jess has mentally adjusted to how he sees the objects in his videos, though honestly i don't want to be say that cause i feel he might show up at my house and murder me. (PS it's been a while since I studied this, if someone notices I got something wrong please inform me)

[@ImDrowningInFootwear]

The most likely scenario is that i know what my own fucking video looks like because i made it look exactly how i fucking want it to and everyone else is splitting hairs like a bunch of autists about the supposed hue of my stunningly beautiful lighting.

[@ratska96]

+Endless Jess I thought this was supposed to be pedantic discussion with no real implications. it's not somthing I think anyone would notice without it being pointed out to them, even if it is pointed out, like they said in the podcast, it looks better with the lighting you have than florescent one.

[@ratska96]

+Endless Jess it's also possible that what they call yellowness is somthing you don't call yellowness but you still know it's there and intentionally put it there (Idk if that's true, I don't want to speak for you). mabye it's just a case that one side is missidentifying somthing about your videos.

[@arturia-leafgreen5127]

this is what I was thinking during digi's rant too. like yes we can't be absolutely certain of anything in the universe, yeah colors and the way people perceive them can confusing, but science and theories about electromagnetic waves can help!

[@ratska96]

yea, i wrote that before i finished the video, the rants went in a direction i wasn't expecting, so its more referring to the early rants

[@Darkenedavo]

I know this is late, but I just wanted to talk about the trans thing. There is a lot of research on the male and female brain and how they differ, and there is slowly more and more being discovered about how this relates to transgender people. The main problem is that live brains a harder to study so the sample size is small. Basically, the current understanding/theory is that a trans person's brain is either feminized or masculinized during development. What this means is that they kind of have 'the wrong brain'. But really it's more like, their brain is giving the wrong signals to the body. The way I learned to understand it was through phantom limbs, wherein after losing a body part someone will still feel like it's there. It can feel pain, feel itchy. Now, in the case of a trans person, the mixed signal says that their body is the wrong sex. And I think this is where this 'spiritual' description comes from. It's a complex disconnect that someone has with their body, and every trans person handles it differently. I think it gets muddled up in gender roles, gender norms, and such when it really doesn't have much to do with that, since cis and trans people both have a wide range for expressing themselves. >m< I hope this hasn't already been said.

[@taigawoods6526]

1:44:00 Digi really starts tripping on that labeling thing. I get the message but there's no need to be contrarian to such a rational and socially useful thing. The problem of people assuming your whole personality by a couple of labels is the problem of their arrogance, not the concept itself. It's like "ban knives - they're kill people" type of shit.

[@lemondere]

Davoo's comment about home renovation shows was really funny. They always zero in on a single trait of a child's interests and blow it up with no regard for like, the personal aspect they appreciate. I saw one where they found out one of the boys liked anime and painted some samurai-jack looking fucker in his room, one of the hosts described it as "a hero he can look up to". I found an extreme makeover episode like that (S02E04, if you look it up on youtube it's brought up at 8:08, 23:20, and 32:32) but it doesn't have that line so I'm inclined to think they may have done the exact same thing twice.

[@Liu484]

Digi, its like this: White light is a combination of all other "lights", you know? An white lighted room will be clearer because all the objects can reflect its clean cut of light, representing a specific color, a combination of colors or fucking black, which is no color at all. When you use any other light that is not white, you're using a specific frequency that not every object can reflect. For example, your hand: when it's shone on by yellow, it's mostly yellow; when it's shone on by white, it's not only yellow but also pink, because the red values of the blood running under your skin will be able to reflect.

[@RazaSyed12345]

Light is electromagnetic radiation within a certain portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. Generally, EM radiation, is classified by wavelength into radio, microwave, infrared, the visible region that we perceive as light, ultraviolet, X-rays and gamma rays. So, for the visible range, the colors are arranged in order of increasing frequency like this: Red < Orange < Yellow < Green < Blue < Indigo < VIolet. Objects appear different colours because they absorb some colours (wavelengths) and reflected or transmit other colours. The colours we see are the wavelengths that are reflected or transmitted. For example, a red shirt looks red because the dye molecules in the fabric have absorbed the wavelengths of light from the violet/blue end of the spectrum. Red light is the only light that is reflected from the shirt. If only blue light is shone onto a red shirt, the shirt would appear black, because the blue would be absorbed and there would be no red light to be reflected. White objects appear white because they reflect all colours. Black objects absorb all colours so no light is reflected. To check in a more objective sense on your computer is by uploading the picture onto html-color-codes.info/colors-from-image/ and get the exact colour code to compare - Regards Science and objectivity

[@idlear1651]

All these years later and I still can't tell if during the yellow debate Jess is playing a character or is just being stubborn. It's probably a bit of both but fuck is it annoying. Edit: Okay, I just made it to 1:27:43 (I've never been able to get past the first yellow argument before because I care about my ear drums), and I've realized, whether it was played up doesn't matter, this yellow argument has become something more. When Davoo kicked Jess from the call, I was relieved, but everyone else said he that was going to far. And was he? All it takes to reveal the cracks in these people's shallow egos, which are built on a shaky foundation of internet personas, is an argument about warm and cool light values. And sure, to most of these guys it ceased being serious the second Jess brought out the "angry youtuber rant voice" but to Davoo, in that one moment of unbridled janitorial internet moderator Orwellian police state rage, it was serious. So what I'm trying to say here is that there's a reason this is the most viewed pcp episode, it's fucking hilarious.

[@SuperDuckPro]

Its a fact, Jesse's videos have a subtle yellow tint. They may look beautiful, normal or whatever other characteristic you want to give them, but they are yellow. BUT WHY THE FUCK DO YOU PEOPLE CARE SO MUCH

[@TheWaggishAmerican]

52:05 The problem with is, we know for a FACT that yellow light does exist. The reason different bulbs send out different colors of light is because they have different gasses within. If you look at the spectrometer, some gasses only put out a couple of colors. That's how we know what gases stars are made out of- you look at a star through a spectrometer, and based on what colors are or are not present, you can ID what it's made out of. Anyway, yellow is a wavelength of light that is put out on it's own.

[@LittleGreenPearl]

I wholeheartedly and politely disagree with the assumptions made towards classical music.

[@JBrimBloodG]

incandescent lights are mostly red/infrared light with a little yellow, even less green, and almost no blue/violet light fluorescent lights are almost entirely made of green/green-yellow light sun light is all visible light with slightly less violet light, but also with ultraviolet and infrared light computer monitors dont increase the yellow values of lighting when displaying footage under incandescent lights, it increases the red values (hence RGB)

[@MichaelPhillips-jw4bj]

The street lights are likely high pressured sodium..... They have a yellow, orange glow. That's good for mimicking fall light. Often used for flowering plants (aka buding for marijuana). As opposed to metal halide that give off a white light. Used for growth

God I would have loved it if Digi, for the outro song, swapped out the word "Working" with just a flat recording of his voice saying "yellow"

[@AntiNihilist]

Jesse was right. neither was yellow. that said, I have no idea what "normal" light would be classified as being.

Digi's random fucking interludes really make this episode great. Edit: it's also tough hearing people that I like and respect talking about gender issues in a way that shows that they have no fucking clue what they are talking about or even that the people they are making broad claims about don't have monolithic opinions that are easily painted with broad strokes.

Oh shit, I had forgotten how awesome this episode is.

I'm ready for yellow

[@asdasd-be5ww]

Colour is 100% light. Things can't have colour, only light can. Or rather only light can be perceived by the eye as having colour. The reason your shirt is yellow is not because it's yellow, it's because it absorbs light of other colours, or wavelengths.

[@_zurr]

It's been a year so it's probably not relevant, but this isn't exactly true. Colour is generally based on perception of light, rather than the wavelengths themselves. For example, magenta doesn't correspond to any wavelength. It's a colour all right, but one our mind makes because it needs one there.

[@TheDragonsBastille]

In fact almost every single color possible is a combination of multiple wavelengths. I would even go so far as to say that we as humans may have never seen a single-wavelengthed color in our lives. If we had it'd be almost impossible to identify it too

Listening to them all talk about Ben telling the whole of Sonichu at Radcon is like watching a prophecy being created.

I came here because of PCP Uni. Do these usually breakdown into fighting over stupid bullshit?

[@nicholisesmithbobjunior1889]

Pong does hold up though. U can hav fun with it. Anything that sets out to achieve something new is objectively better than something that is simply refining something

[@merrick2792]

Jess' screaming is doing wonders for convincing me of his sanity.
