• diskmag Windows Hugi #29 - The Blue One by Hugi [web]
• This is my last post, I have no time to fight and it doesn't worth the cost.
  
  Let me sum up the "against or thumb up" posts on hugy 29 :
  
  1) EP, Adok, Hugi 29 suck
  2) EP you are a fucking bastard
  3) I'm right because I have a big mouth and EP is bad
  
  Well I think I was right for severall reasons :
  
  1) I've said some (note some and not all this is important) sceners are bad
  mannered. These posts show me I'm right : too less usefull comments, no
  constructivism (eg : no new article for hugi 30, no new gfx, no new musics, no
  new ideas, ...), and a lot of flames as it's so easy to flames others. Art is
  difficult but cristicism is easy (Destouches).
  
  2) I've said sceners have to change : these posts show me I'm right again. Yes,
  there is no arguments, no demonstration of the fact that I'm wrong, no url with
  good demos to download, no url about tools to build GFX, zik or code for free,
  no link to code / gfx / zik tutorials, well nothing really interesting. In fact
  there is nothing written which make the scene changing for better days. I've
  said alcohol is a drug and I'm right because it's one as it produces an
  habituation like tobaco does or like any other drugs morever it have bad effects
  on health that was proved scientifically and Adok which is a doctor could show
  you that by A + B with statistical reviews. In fact if you need alcohol to
  integrate socially that means you are surrounded by people who have so much
  fears they need to drink to be free enough to talk, strange behavior... I think
  that if you need drink to be yourself that you have a little problem of
  communication and you don't know how to manage your stress to avoid such method.
  I think also that if you are stressed then you should find its causes and
  eradicate them and this is more generally : when you have a problem, you should
  find what are its causes to eradicate them instead of allways fix up them. This
  is a more efficient way to live, well this is my opinion : stop using medecines,
  instead find the causes of your pains and eradicates them, your body will say
  thank you.
  
  I've also said some sceners are bad mannered and all the insults I've seen here
  and there show me that I'm true. Insults show me your weaks as you aren't enough
  clever to show me I'm wrong using a reasoning, you simply put insults one after
  other and this show me your lack of spirit and vocabulary.
  
  I've also noticed a lot of sceners have problems when it comes to understanding
  what is said in an article or on a post : flames about animations is for me a
  perfect example. Yes, anims are big, anims are not real time, anims aren't 4Kb
  sized and anims are not easily downloadable. Yes but I haven't said you must
  release demos as anims and only as that. THERE WAS A SHADE and I think a lot of
  you have a spirit which erase a lots of shades. I have said demos can be viewed
  easily on a low powered config if they were released as anims and that's the
  point : the main thing is demos can be viewed whereas your computer is fast or
  slow when they are released as anims. You can release nintendo altered demos
  and show them to your PC or MAC friend when they are released as anims. I
  advocate to the video conversion phenomenon because it solves a lot of hasle
  about drivers and give a lot of free time to coders. This is only a way to
  DISTRIBUTE, demos will be shown realtime on the party. THIS IS AN IDEA NOT A
  MANDATORY WAY BUT THIS CAN IMPROVE YOUR PROD POPULARITY. But PC owners can
  download the prod as an exe as this is lighter for their internet access and
  give currently better rendering results. Note also that with P2P the bandwith
  limit of scene.org isn't a problem anymore : hay guys time to share something
  with others. Yes share your not used bandwith with others, use P2P. I'm sure a
  special P2P networks dedicated to demoscene is possible to build.
  
  The fact that anims aren't realtime is another point. Well do you know that in
  2006 video cards on the market will be able to make realtime raytracing ? What I
  want to show with this is that hardware is changing all the times and when it
  comes to watch an old prod on a brand computer comes a lot of problems and
  finally the result isn't here as often 5 years or older prods seems not at all
  great, but simply obsolete stuff. For archival purposes and scene preservation,
  it could be great, this is an idea, to video convert stuff so guys in 20 years
  will be able to show what you've done and this will be more than easy that to
  emulate old hardware. This is my point, this is an argument.
  
  But I have if I remember well allready give these arguments in the article and
  on these posts I have seen everywhere one thing : you are hasty guys allways in
  a race, in competition. You aim for the main thing but you are so fast that you'
  ve lost almost everything and especially deep comprehension. You've seen 5
  words : animations, remove black, bad mannered, ... What a wit !!! I've written
  30 Kb, you've summed it up as 5 words ! Do you compress jpeg pictures with the
  maximum ratios ? If yes, I understand that if your brain do the same as what
  you do with pictures then it erases almost everything and especially what is
  important. Life isn't bribes, live is a whole guys and life is build in
  infinite shades like technologies and computers are.
  
  Finally a word about traditions in general : traditions are everything but
  progress for severall aspects.
  
  First traditions impose rules (I haven't imposed anything, I have suggested and
  you are free to accept or to reject but insulting, joking or in fact beeing
  irrespectfull isn't acceptable) and rules in art are to be first known then
  beeing oversteped. This is what is progress : finding better ways to do the
  same things. Rules are necessary at the first stage to know how to do things
  but once you mastered them, you can easily change them, improve them,
  sophisticate them. But tradition is something which let us making things
  without giving us a clear reason to do so : in France, perhaps on your country
  too, there are traditions like drinking alcohol before eating and I don't
  follow it as alcohol isn't necessary for me to get appetite, there is All
  Saints' Day where we put flowers on dead guys grave. I don't follow it because
  putting flowers on graves rounded by people isn't my cup of tea and it don't
  bring back dead guys to life sadly. There is Chrismas which is a commercially
  party created 50 years ago with a special guy called Santa Claus or Father
  chrismas which (they at least tried to convince me of when I was young and not
  so gullible child) came to my chimney on a flying sledge pulled by two or more
  reindeers (which at least with father chrismas, sledge and all the presents
  wheight more than 1200 pounds ! :) ) and I have forgotten he is so fast that
  he can give me a visit of perhaps one hour long, and deliver presents to all the
  children in the world in one night. What an exploit and we are searching the way
  to reach mars. Hey Father chrismas, please give me a flying reindeer :) I stop
  there to give you the conclusion : tradition is everything except intelligence
  and the Church is slowly (too much slowly IMHO) dying from the fact it tells too
  much damned things like JC was reincarned (only one guy from billions the last
  2000 years, what a strange fact...), sun turns around the hearth whereas the
  truth is the opposite (galileo scientist was judged by the Inquisition and have
  been forced to abjure to avoid torture).
  
  Second traditions is a way to manage guys easily : you said them, "it's like
  that and we keep the tradition alive by following it" and you don't have to
  demonstrate it, nor you don't let people think by themselves which is really
  dangerous for political concerns. Well tradition is mechanical automation of
  thinking, behaviour and actions. It' s totally aimed at no progress, come from
  the past and is a symbol of stupidity.
  
  This is my final word. If you have different ideas and especially constructive
  ones or wanna share with me your own thinks, theories or philosophy about scene,
  life and everything else then feel free to email me. Note that my email is
  filtered and all kind of mails containing insults or archives are automatically
  erased without my prior consent. So send only plain txt emails. Thanks you very
  much.

• 1) Hi to all out there reading and writing
  
  2) A lots of guys have bad reactions about my article called "save the scene" :
  
  well sadly what I see on all these posts is what I have pointed the finger at on the article. That means certain sceners have the maturity of children and you know what, this can be extended to a big part of the society ! Yes a lot of guys out there are never happy whichever is done, they are all the time moaning and doing nothing to change things. They even go in justice doing like they do when they were at nursery school : "hey teacher this guy have hurted me, punish him and hit him hardly".
  
  At least I have written an article which points the "problems" on the scene : lack of organisation, bad way to distribute stuff (anim is the way TV is spread over the world and as far as I know this works for severall years now and broadcast are more popular than computer demos, isn't it ? Anim don't contain viruses and can be viewed on a larger number of computer independently of the hardware). This is true or not ? Objectively this is true and there are allready old DOS demos availlable on DVD like I have seen on the skaven web site : this allow to show them without tons of emulators and tricks which are not easy to use.
  
  I have also said that guys are boozing too much and that is true as photos show it and as a lot of guys will confirm it. I know the problem of alcohol very well : a friend of mine which was the most good guy on the earth have killed using a knife 2 guys on a village fête and believe it or not he was not really boozed just a little meaning alcohol is very dangerous. Perhaps on different cultures guys have so much difficulty to fight against the cold temperature that it's common to booze but as far as I know alcohol have so much disavantages on health that I really urge yourself to change your behaviour. Think what your children will became when you will became dead, blind, injured or disabled due to a car crash in boozed state ? What will they think, what will they do ? I know and this will not be really interesting objectively.
  
  3) A lot of guys don't find my opinions about creations styles acceptable : I pointed here also something scientifically and objectively measurable, the demos are black, dark, this is a fact and usually all the background are made of #000000 pixels. And dark is for me (for you too, not ?) the color of death and death is not creativity, death if the end of all activity.
  
  4) A guy have sent a troll on this post : what politic have in common with my opinions ? Here I open a parenthesis (You know what : I think like Emmanuel Kant that Democraty is enlighten despotism. Yes putting a sheet of paper on a box with a slot each 4, 5 or 7 years is a big joke. Where is my and your power on this system ? Buried under bureaucracy as far as I can say. And even if you said me that you vote for a program, I will answer you that at school a child have control to see if it learn well, but politics have no control about what they do to respect this program, or if they have they get some so special rights which gave them immunity which means we are not equal at the eyes of the law. Even if you say me I have the right to vote, I will answer you that this is the power of the number, the power of the force and this is not because a majority have choosen a direction which make them having reason. Albert Einstein when he discovered the theory or relativity was taken as a fool simply because only 10 or 30 guys on the world where able to understand him... Yes intelligence isn't well shared. I don't like this system.)
  
  5) About the fact that what makes scene continuously productive is competition and bad mannered people like KB have said : so KB, I like very much your tunes but say me honestly "Is lizardking a fucking bastard musician ? Is Uncle Tom a big asshole ? And you are better than them I suppose ? You know better than them how to make certain things ? Music, perhaps ?" Well insults, and lack of respect lead to war and to non productivity, which make productivity is parallel work, work emulation, team spirit, friendship and self motivation, that's my point. I never seen a football team win anything by saying : Zinedine Zidane is a fucking lamer. This is perhaps what do Hooligans which are not : I'm not fighting for triviality. And competition : what a joke. How 100 guys can make each on his own a better thing than when working together ? Please give me a clue ? Competition is war, nothing else. And war make us loosing our time and energy whereas working together make us getting the results faster with less pain.
  
  Finally I see that in fact I have said something near the truth as you are reacting because you have been touched by my words and ideas. Tradition (like real time) is in fact against progress and evolution as tradition let us lying on the past. I saw also that concerning black and bad design you are right with me as you don't like the Hugi 29 design :) So we have the same idea of what is beautifull and what is not. So stop moaning and etheir do something like writing an article, painting, coding, managing, raytracing, music compositing or watch, consume and shut up.
  
  « dire la vérité est utile à celui à qui on la dit, mais désavantageux à ceux qui la disent, parce qu'ils se font haïr » (Pascal).
  
  "Saying the truth is usefull to the one which receive it, but is unfavourable to those who said it, because they make themself hated" (Pascal = the discover of the theory of probabilities, first computer maker : pascaline a calculator for his father, Roy France banker).
  
  Hope to hear from you soon.
