does that mean the best way to level out-of-party members is to solo one character?

"perfect" as a definition is meaningless without a secondary argument, namely one specifying in what property/aspect the definiendum is perfect.
To be perfect in every way means to be non-existent. To be complete means to be dead (imagine a "perfect" TAS: 0 seconds). Our desire and will makes us alive, and desire means that we are not complete, we lack something and we want more. There's nothing wrong with imperfections, they're no more imperfect than perfection. "Imperfect" just means expanding, and perfect means complete.
thank you for that irrelevent insight.
"thing that created everything" is meaningful, but the existence of such a thing would violate causality.
How?
because such a thing would have created itself, which, under normal rules of causality, would mean that it did so before its own beginning, and causality together with relativity imply that pastward time travel is impossible.
if you meant "thing that created everything else", that would be too broad, since it could plausably include the big bang.
God/life is way too big to be explained with a few little words. The Big Bam didn't create anything, it's just a bang imagined by scientists because of the redshift. God didn't create the world once in some distant past, he creates the world in 7 days, every day a little bit different.
the redshift isn't the strongest evidence of the big bang, there's also the microwave background. and when you say that "god/life is way too big to be explained with a few little words", what is that supposed to mean? anyway, this is also irrelevent to the matter of defining "god".

The only irritating thing about the pause thing to me is that it quiets the boss music! Grr!
Agreed, which is why I intend to have the AVI encoded with a emulator-level hack feature that amplifies the sound volume when a pause is in effect to match the normal levels.
a potentially better idea would be to find the address to whose value the pause routine sets the volume, and then patch it to the normal volume.

it was probably due to memory constraints.

not only that they aren't loaded, but they aren't even in the same room (game engine wise). even if you could get past the invisible wall, you'd find nothing.

I'd like to say that god is like the end of pi. Can't prove it exists, there's a bunch of other crap before it, and it's irrelevant if it does exist.
it definitely doesnt exist. in any case, i dont know when the sinai event was supposed to have happened, but it had to be at least several hundred years before exodus was written, which is far to long not to allow such a myth to form. im also wondering what you [boco] do with the documentary hypothesis.

if that happened, i would suspect that it was someone, an extraterrestrial perhaps, with access to clarketech. anyway, i dont remember which event youre talking about. when did it happen, and where is it recorded?

It might be nice to see a second run with the bosses in. Maybe something that includes some of the endgame sidequests, like a "beats all bosses" goal, a non-vaguely defined "100%" goal... or something of the sort.
methinks that would mean starting all the side quests and finishing none.

i think you should exploit the glitch as much as possible or not at all.

So, in order for you to record a replayable not-desyncing video on a DS while using the mic, you need to catch EXACTLY what the DS catches on it's mic, and save it. That means NO lossy encoding (like MP3). This in turn means very big "key"-files.
what you do is encode it in real time and then use that instead of the source.

dear bisqwit: why do you think that human lives distributively are infinitely valuable? also, do you think that other species animals lives (distributively) are infintesimally valuable in comparison?

i thought recent versions of wine wouldnt run 1.51 due to some graphics library issue.

the file you want is «super mario 64 (x)», where x is the code of the region want. generally the american version is used here. nintendo 64 tas's i believe can be done without a controller. the emulator you use should be compatible with any controller with which mac os 10 is, and mac os 10 should automatically use any usb controller thats pluged in. at least thats what linux does. edit: html escape sequences wont work for some reason.
