Comics and Other Media / Re: Tubi Dooby Doo!
Last post by Xev - February 10, 2025, 02:40:11 AMOkidoki, was trying to follow. Yes, that's a good example of exactly what I've been talking about. I didn't even remember seeing that cartoon before until I watched the first few seconds or so of episode 1.
When I was watching, I was like, "wow, I was kinda old to be watching this when it was new" and then I realized my current age and the fact that I was on like episode 5 already.
You know, I played nearly every PC d&d type game when that cartoon was new and played tabletop on the weekends - but it was Cryptic's Tiamat Trial, years and years later, that taught me the name Tiamat! It was kinda funny to watch episode 1 and have a kind of Easter egg when Tiamat showed up.
Anyway, yes! Perfect example. That's exactly what I'm talking about. There is a lot of stuff like that on Tubi. Stuff I don't even remember watching, or never got to watch, like the original Dick Tracy (it's not that bad!).
As soon as I got done watching some of those D&D cartoons I went back to Tubi and queued up some Defenders of the Earth, from right around the same year as D&D the TV Animated Series, to keep the era theme going.

In the category of 'never got to watch' I humbly submit from today's Recommendations:

Gtfo! They made a sequel?? Almost? Wow, only took me 40 years to find out. Looking forward to seeing that tonight.

Last post by eabrace - February 09, 2025, 03:13:53 AMIt was available on Freevee, but Amazon has made it hard to find most of the live channels from Freevee that it folded into Prime video.
The channel is still available on Plex: https://watch.plex.tv/live-tv/channel/dungeons-and-dragons-adventures
But that playlist you linked should also cover all of the episodes.

Last post by Xev - February 08, 2025, 10:30:25 PMDid the channel fail or something? Google showed me references to it but I gave up trying to find it. I didn't see the cartoon on Tubi, either.
Did find the cartoon on YouTube, though. Think that's all episodes:

Last post by Xev - February 05, 2025, 05:16:04 PMSo, after giving it some time and being stuck indoors due to weather...
Tubi is my current favorite place to watch stuff. So much stuff to watch that I haven't seen in forever. There's newer stuff, too, like the 2 Shazams, but mostly it's the old stuff that makes Tubi good for me.
The one flaw with Tubi would probably be picture quality. Sometimes they cheap out and show stuff lower res than the other guys. Some things are lower res because, I think, there's just no better copy to stream - yet. Like Black Brigade with Richard Pryor and Greatest American Hero, for example. Others, I know there is a better copy out there. Usually it's stuff that's old and probably no one watches - but there again, they have plenty of old and super old stuff that looks better than it did when it was new.
Their recommendations, whether by pure luck or not, have been the best I've had so far. I've yet to go to Tubi and scroll through Recommendations without finding something I actually want to watch right now, and, at least 1 thing to put away into saved stuff for later.
When the thing I'm watching is over they also tend to rollover into something I don't mind watching/playing for background noise.
Again, the main thing for Tubi seems to be old fantasy stuff. Fantasy, being - sci-fi, comic book stuff, cartoons, tales from the beyond, sword and sorcery, and in general - stuff that kids watch(ed).

Last post by WanderingAries - February 04, 2025, 02:07:34 AMYour best bet would be to use the Way Back Machine and / or the related efforts. At least a couple mentioned / attempted on HC servers to make that version searchable.

ParagonWiki / Re: Favicon Missing?
Last post by Blondeshell - February 03, 2025, 03:04:54 PMI am also now not seeing the favicon on Paragonwiki, using Windows 10 and Edge/Chrome. Titan's favicon (the green atom) shows fine.

Last post by Blondeshell - February 03, 2025, 03:00:18 PMI don't think there's a definitive technical way to tell what's originally from sunset except to have that version running on its own server. I'd thought about this, too, when considering going back and finishing the projects I'd been working on here. I think it'll just require a combination of memory and checking Homecoming patch notes.
