God damn I hate the modern internet

I just wanted to re-learn how to edit a clip in davinci, but it's impossible to actually find the information. Google is just a bunch of AI garbage and youtube nonsense that is 30 minutes long to explain something that would take one entire sentence.
I don't know how anyone learns a new skill in this hellscape of noise.

Then I remembered a tip where you add "+reddit" to search reddit for humans sharing information for the benefit of other humans and I found it within seconds. This is going to be patched out, isn't it? Everything else is already drowned out.

How is your sleep routine? I'm thinking I need to improve mine. Strangely I've found that having my little tablet thing playing a youtube speedrun history video helps me get sleepy faster. My theory is that it interrupts my thinking and allows my brain to turn off faster. It doesn't increase the amount of sleep I get, but at least it starts earlier so there's less wasted time doing nothing in bed.

Used to do the same with playing a YouTube video in the background trying to sleep. Recently though, feel like I've come to a realization on (my) sleep.
1. As long as I'm not thinking about something that's plausible in the future or a regret of the past, it does not count as a thought that keeps me awake; have been able to fall asleep within ~10 minutes of turning off my phone recently.
2. Used to think alarms didn't work for me, but seems like as long as I haven't accumulated any "sleep debt" the past 2-3 days, and as long as my sleeping hours for that session is >=6 hours, the alarm wakes me up. Have had cases where only sleep debt was the factor; but haven't tried that theory because sleeping <6 hours is already a cause of sleep debt. Also, have somehow trained myself to wake up after exactly 6 hours.
Think I've been getting my sleep schedule under control recently, 10 minutes give or take.
For waking up, the 90 minutes cycle seems to be true/working; hence my sleep time of 6 hours (90 * 4 minutes).

Well, if you're able to choose what you think about you're far more advanced than me. It would require conscious effort on my part which is probably even worse. I've been doing the youtube nonsensical documentary/review thing now for a while and I think it's working pretty well. The key is that it can't be too exciting or interesting, which I guess does count for most of youtube.

Why play something competitive if you are not going to be the best? or among the best, at least.

¨For fun¨ is the obvious answer but then you have a big skill gap between players. I don't play competitive online games anymore because I haven't been able to find an answer to this. I don't want to be a pro or anything, just good enough to think of myself as ¨good at the game¨. Whatever that game might be.

Instead, I've been playing Prominence Poker and MahSoul because those games are luck based and I can listen to a video or do something else while playing.

What do you think?

I don't know. Probably. I was mainly into speed running Mega Man because I liked doing TAS runs. Then I'd take what I'd learned playing a game frame-by-frame and try to apply it to normal speed.

There is a lot of debate about what is and isn't a glitch as well. For example, in Mega Man 2 you can modify falling speed using the pause button. This can allow you to take a route you couldn't normally reach. It isn't really considered a glitch since pausing is a normal part of the game. But some people might argue otherwise. So most of the rules are made up and arbitrary.

Mega Man 9's offical leaderboard for speed runs didn't list your actual time either. It only counted time when the game was actually running. If you were sitting at the weapon select menu time was frozen. So a lot of people would pause and unpause over and over again to make the platforming portions easier. They changed this for Mega Man 10 by adding a feature from the SNES games where you could switch weapons without using the selection screen. Which was more "fair" but kind of ruined the fun for anyone that was used to the NES games and didn't like that feature. You could still select weapons from the menu like normal but now the clock ran the entire time you were in that menu. Which pretty much forced you to use the SNES way (shoulder buttons) if you wanted any chance of posting a good time.

I was going to show you some runs the guy I used to trade the record with did. But the originals are no longer on youtube. Someone edited them to remove the pause screen which is stupid because now the music is all screwed up. Most of the strategy isn't shown anymore because most of it revolved around when you paused and unpaused.

>It isn't really considered a glitch since pausing is a normal part of the game.
It's a glitch if the manipulation of your falling speed is unintentional behavior, or if the availability of the route was an oversight on the part of the developers.

But yeah, the important thing is that the community agrees on a specific set of rules, and if somebody discovers a new trick, the community needs to come together and come to a consensus on whether or not that is part of the accepted gameplay or cheating. That's what playing games is about: a shared set of rules.

 No.127049

>>127048
It isn't considered a "glitch" in Mega Man 2 because they have what's called a "zipless" category. Which basically means any glitch outside of zipping through walls is okay. It's by far the most popular form of the world record.

The pause trick was so well known most people don't even bother to argue it since it isn't a massive advantage and people have discovered ways to get into those areas without it (excluding where it helps you zip). It's basically just re-starting your fall. It halts all momentum you've already built up and makes it so you're falling off an invisible platform. Most people avoid it now because it's much slower than just jumping normally. Since now we're down to timing this stuff by frames instead of seconds.

 No.127050

>>127046
Yeah, they exist. It seems like it's a mixed bag and most people simply want the "best" at events and such, which leads to stuff like THIS where they enter a debug room and just teleport around scenes and it's the most boring thing imaginable. FF7 has been a buggy mess in these events for a long time, but this is a new low if you ask me. Yeah, it's faster than the runs where they actually play the game, so congratulations to them I guess.
Glitchless runs seem like a niche when compared to people simply wanting to beat it the fastest way possible.

 No.127051

>>127050
I can't find it anymore because they take down old TAS runs off youtube now. But there used to be a really cool run of Rockman 1 where you're literally reprogramming the ASM as you play. It's almost impossible to do it on a real console because 9 times out of 10 it'll lock up. But with save states you can try thousands of times and sometimes get through.

By the time you get to Wily 2 the game is so fucked up it can't even render sprites anymore.

The first season of Genshiken is really good—made me wish my school had an anime club (with actual wotaku). The second season focuses way more on the characters and less on otaku culture, and the third one is mostly a romance anime with an (almost) all-fujo cast, so naturally the otaku stuff is more geared towards women in that one.

In terms of highschool mine had one in like 2014 before it became flooded with ironics 2 years after. That aside, before that happened my anime club didn’t have too many hardcore fans, many of them were a bit casual. I don’t remember that many shonen fans though, they were all nice. But I still felt alienated from mine. Guess that’s what happens when you’re a niche in a niche(?) That aside, I’ll stick with the manga instead of watching season 2 for now.

What's your favorite yokai/Japanese folklore being? I think most people are probably going to say kitsune, but the bakeneko is interesting as well. The Sawarineko in Monogatari was based on it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bakeneko
It's a cat spirit associated with curses that not only it can possess people like how it's demonstrated in Monogatari, but also kill them and take their place by shapeshifting into the person, similar to how kitsune also have shapeshifting powers. It's the opposite of the maneki-neko which brings good luck. You know, that cat figurine with a raised paw.

You probably know a fair bit more than you think, but normally when they're presented in anime and stuff the youkai aren't exactly treated as or specifically stated to be folklore monsters because they just are. It's ingrained into the culture so seeing them isn't as out of place. And even then because it's so ingrained there's many different interpretations. Like the Nine-tails from Naruto is an interpretation of kitsune and in the folklore nine tails signifies the highest level of kitsune. Likewise for a more recent big shounen, in Jujutsu Kaisen Ryouman Sukuna is an actual piece of folklore himself too. Uchouten Kazoku is basically entirely about youkai and folklore.

Though I wonder at what point we stop calling things folklore and start calling them just urban legends? Since Hanako-san is technically a youkai but is more of a recent thing in that it's post-WWII. Similarly there's a fair bit of urban legends/yurei/yokai that one can see across japanese fiction that have certified themselves in the culture post-WWII but I don't know if we can call them folklore either... Technically I think they should be.

One of my favorite shows is getting a sequel soon. I really like this series and think a lot of people passed over it because it was said to be a Madoka rip-off when the anime came out. I've been reading the LNs and they're really good. I think they'd be a perfect series for someone learning kana.

The new season of the anime should be really good because it will cover what is arguably the best two LNs in the series. The only downside is it'll probably be 12 episodes instead of 24. It's a lot of content to cover in 12 episodes. The first season felt really fast paced because of that. I don't want to spoil anything but suffice to say characters are introduced quickly and certain events happen too fast.

Anyone else a fan of Raising Project? I don't understand why this series isn't more popular. It feels like only a few people have seen it. I am hopeful season 2 will do good in the ratings and maybe we'll get some OVAs or something. A proper video game based on this series would be really fun.

They're not really connected. Battle harems were the previous braindead LN template that got adapted way too often. The edgy mahou shoujo trend just fell off over time as Madoka became a distant memory and the genre slowly reverted back to light-hearted stuff like Twin Angel and Ore.

There's been many a time where I've stumbled upon a character and ironically stated, "Yup, that's me". Pretending or even lying to myself that I'm that character. But that's not the case here, this is me. I am literally Magia Baiser, Baiser is me. The mangaka wrote the story and I was who it was based on. You could not possibly craft a character that was more me than this. That's because if you were to change anything it would not be me, since it's me.

Coming off the final episode, the inbetween chapters made for a perfect finale to the season that left open the chance of a continuation while also wrapping things up in a satisfying manner. Venarita's scheming and the wider world of Mahou Shoujo are still out there, but for now in Utena's hometown she's satisfied with having achieved an ideal balance. She can peacefully play out her role as the villain while toying with her idols. Glad they didn't try to go for an anime original end so the massive success can be capitalized for a second season.

Although here's hoping that they can upgrade to a better studio with a larger budget in S2, since that was probably my biggest gripe with the anime.

I thought you were meant to look down on long-term lurkers for being pathetic cowards and freeloaders, but as the “lurk moar” meme has been taken more and more seriously, it seems people have come to see lurking for months or even years before posting anything as an integral part of board culture. I couldn't disagree with that idea more. It goes against the spontaneity that makes the internet fun. For most communities, if you can't get along with it after a few days using it, you should just leave it alone, rather than stalking it until you can pretend to fit in. And I enjoy seeing people share their first reactions to a forum or board, before gradually becoming more seasoned posters over time. It's refreshing.

A lot of them are straight up illiterate, so the older bunch will most likely take their time to lurk even if its like useless too, seeing that older crowds are slowly posting less and less anyways. Didn’t really mean to turn the topic into IBs dying but….if you take out lurking they legitimately fucking die lmao. If i wanted to talk to literal children i’d hang out on youtube or something.

I think the problem with Tohno is more the atmosphere on it than the number of boards. Everybody on the site seems miserable and depressed...
Well that's why I left it anyway.

Cool website, nerds.
Let me know when you incorporate vim keyboard shortcuts like the actual cool software out there.

Do you use any software that other people may not know about that you like?
I started using (and eventually even bought!) this thing called Wallpaper Slideshow after trying a bunch of free ones and getting frustrated. https://www.gphotoshow.com/wallpaper-slideshow-pro.php
Basically, you give it folder(s) of your choice and it will assemble a collage image of them and make it your background. You can configure it with a timer that changes it and I have it set to 15 minutes. I had originally used John's Background Switcher that someone thankfully linked to me a few months ago: >>91800 https://johnsad.ventures/software/backgroundswitcher/
I liked this one more because there's less wasted space, more options, and it just generally seems to assemble the image better. I turn it off before I go to bed each night though because I'm worried that it's keeping my hard drive active all day, which probably isn't good. I should maybe research that sometime...

This pairs well with something like Grabber ( https://github.com/Bionus/imgbrd-grabber ) that can bulk download tags from booru sites.
Of course, this stuff is kind of wasteful if you don't have an extra monitor with a wallpaper that's largely visible, but I find myself like that sometimes so it's pretty nice.

This is something I've been using for a few years and it just exists passively in the background so I forget about it. It's a simple program that automatically reduces the blueness of your screen dependent on your set sleep schedule and/or time of day. This is important for reducing eyestrain and supposedly it helps you sleep, but I can't confirm the latter. It's based on the reasoning that blue light is artificial and new whereas the sun in the evening and even fire is orange and that's what our eyes have adapted to process.
There are other programs that do it (and newer OS versions have their own version I think) but this is the one I've used. I wonder if there's better stuff out there, but this is free and it does exactly what it's supposed to do so I haven't bothered looking.

Been thinking about this ever since I got my Bluetooth headphones. They support LDAC, but Windows has no real bluetooth codec support like Android does. Found this which replaces the Bluetooth driver and adds support for LDAC, AptX LL, AptX HD. It works too. I was skeptical at first, but I tried it out with my Fiio BTR3 which has a little LED indicator that changes color based on codec used, and it absolutely works. I seriously appreciate being able to use LDAC with granular settings. My headphones used to cut out whenever I would walk to the kitchen and stand near my fridge, but now it just cuts down to a lower bandwidth and maintains the connection.

It's paid, but with a week-long trial period. If you buy it before the trial expires, you get a discounted price. Only gripe is that the license is hardware-tied, meaning you need to buy additional licenses for any additional computers you have. The price is discounted for additional purchases, but it still is kind of annoying. Still, I think it's well worth the price.

Nice, a software thread.

Does anyone know any script that blocks users or tage on pixiv? Either that or filters posts based on region? I'm trying to block gaijin on my feed. Some bug man and worse koreans are okay I guess, but western posts I want them out of my feed for the most part. Too much crappy art from them.

somehow AG Grid has become more intuitive through their latest maj. vers update. Everything gets set through a single ```setGridOption``` function that uses a string key to act...
