A narrator describes whatβs happening onscreen, carefully avoiding any overlap with the dialog. With the audio description turned on, you can listen to a whole movie, not even looking at the screen, and know whatβs going on. And itβs very close to how a game master describes a scene. (Itβs a lot more specific than a radio drama or screenplay, neither of which have such detailed, in-the-moment narration.)

any nerd here knows why peach is written with katakana instead of hiragana? γ’γ’ vs γγ
Kirara π
because peach isn't a Japanese word
Anno
do you know where they got it from?
Kirara π
i don't think anyone knows but people have suggested it comes from chinese where mo means hairy or something
Anno
thanks family I guess the most obvious answer is the correct one in this case
>>555419 Once/If you have a solid understanding of the kana, it might help to use a grammar guide, something like Tae Kim's online stuff, or even just a published grammar guide. Words are pretty rote memorization, but unless you have somewhere or someone you can regularly converse in Japanese with, there probably aren't many good avenues for you to learn the grammar and syntax of the language. And knowing how a sentence is supposed to look will probably help with intuitively realizing what a word even if you don't know it.
Anno
>>555423 I got that guide downloaded, but it has 360 pages or something so it sounds pretty damn boring I was gonna see if I can just learn it from reading shit, watching gay anime and maybe I can try to befriend that japanese guy I know after I know enough words and sentences maybe I can find some online japanese nerds too to chat with
Anno
Tae Kim's is good because it tries to teach the more casual grammar and informal way of speaking. Too many Japanese educational things only teach you how to speak super polite and sound like you've got a stick in your arse. For better and for worse it's very thorough and slow though, yeah.
But, and I'm not going to say it's impossible, you're kind of shooting yourself in the foot just trying to learn from watching anime. If you're reading untranslated stuff, that can probably help too, but I think without having somewhere to regularly converse in Japanese, it's always going to not be the most efficient way of learning the language.
Anno
untranslated things are what I think I'll do. If I wanna learn about the grammar for a specific instance I encounter I'll use Tae's guide at least that's how I imagine trying to learn it. It's how I learned the little german I know too, just from reading, watching and hearing stuff
would indeed be nice if I could live in japan while learning, then I'd learn it in a heartbeat but this is the best I can do now I think
TN
oh wow countrywide fireban lifted
Maven Mobile
Ihana
TN

ζ
>>555426 i think starting with untranslated stuff is fine it's not the most thorough, but it is engaged and active building that fundamental intuition can easily become a more acute probe as you investigate the rest of the language

Holy fuck Pro tip, /moe/ always keep emergency cash on you
So right, it's my last night in Russia, so i decided to go some place nicer than ususl. There was this restaurant on trip adviser that was meant to have a 'traditional Russian food great atmosphere and Live shows' So i show up and first of all the place is absolutely dead. The guy Leads me down a long flight of stairs and has to Turn the Lights on Because there's absolutely no one else there >fuck it. Maybe im early So i ordered food And it's just me eating alone in this cavernous room
And the other thing was, that since I'm leaving tomorrow I'm trying to use up all my cash. I asked if i could pay on credit card and he said no problem But the thing is, it's an old card and it doesn't have a pin. Or at lease one i know. I use it for ordering stuff online and paying with pay pass
So I ate the food (two courses) - and it tasted real fuckin amazing. I asked the waiter about the shows and he said 'not on for 10 days'. Didn't give a reason
TN
>>555432 should have said, russians hate credit cards
Maven Mobile
Alright Now the scene is set the story gets interesting I went to pay, and he's like >no sign. Only pin
I'm like: oh, ok. Well this one only signs. Maybe i could leave my passport with you or something and i could go across the street to the atm abd get the cash
And this is where the SMILES STOPPED >no. You don't leave you pay
>yeah. I want to pay. >but i don't have a way to right now. I'll get the cash.
>no. You don't leave. You no pay, i call police
And I'm trying to keep my cool but I'm wondering if this is the point in my life that i see the inside of a Russian jail cell
And outside i try to act casual >you can call the police but ill just tell them the exact same thing. I can pay. I will pay. I just need to get the money
(side note - I'm also not dressed like someone who goes to nice restaurants. T-shirt and sneakers)
And the guy was like >you don't know pin. You have no money. I am thinking this card is not yours. I call police
>no it is mine. It has my name on it, see >it doesn't look like your name
And then. The fucking saving grace
Maven Mobile
He was like 'you pay Euros' And i didn't have any euros But i did, a long time ago stash $20 au dollarydoos around the back of my phone case Like months and months ago Specifically so I'd have emergency cash And i pull it out and he's like >what is this. I've never seen this money before >Australian dollars. Good hard currency. International standard. Go check with your boss So he goes always and comes back five minutes later >ok. You pay Australian dollars. Now get out
So i fuckin lelegged it
And shitposted the whole thing on /moe/ The end
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Funniest part about eastern europe, is how they will accept dollaroos, euros and whatnot, since they are much more reliable than their own currencies and russians hate banks, since atleast older generation got used to banks never giving their moneys back, 90s being a shit time to be russian
but even younger, say my agep eople when travelling in finland, might carry lik 5000β¬ in their wallets and not even rich, just middle class people who can afford to travel, they just have their entire travel budget in cash in their wallet
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>555435 well lucky you had that in finland, be prepared to be always assumed to use card or phone to pay for things and then be shocked, when some market vendor only accepts cash
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
oh and well dunno bout rovaniemi, but in the capital region you can't buy tickets on public transports gotta phone ticket, use travel card or prebuy the ticket
Maven Mobile
Yeah. I never use cash back home Like ever Which is partly why i probably still had that 20 bucks But in Russia I've been paying for everything exclusively with cash And the credit card scanned fine at a store earlier this afternoon, and it worked at the airport, so i just assumed i could sign with it other places
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
also you get a nice 80β¬ fine + kicked out if you are caught without a ticket
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>555439 is weird they didn't accept the sign option, since all card readers still carry that option I guess you didn't look the part or something or just cause russia has so many card frauds

coincidentally in finnish russia is "venΓ€jΓ€" and word "ryssΓ€" is basically a deragotary term for russians though no one really cares
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
and sweden is ruotsi, and hails from the same word as the russia comes from the "rus people" rus vikings having come from sweden originally, and they found the kingdom of rus or kiovan rus, which is considered the first incarnation of russia

TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Rus coming from some old germanic word for "rowing" so the rus people, being "the people who row" when the germanic norse and the finno-finns/estonians mixed up the words

>>555452 No idea I'd go with DNA I guess, but you could get a full 4g unlimited pack for maybe 25β¬ a month which would save you money compared to prepaid in the long run

ie.

The place I'm renting has wifi. I don't really nees unlimited 4g

I just don't really see in getting a prepaid pack *see a point the prices are about the same per month and no contract is "you need to keep it for 12 months"
Maven Mobile
Because i just want something fast an easy as soon as i step off the train I can always switch later
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
you can just hit any R-kioski and ask for a prepaid if you want to but practically you can also set up a contract on the spot and it will be available too on the spot but your call
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
I guess my tip would be get a best prepaid deal you can get out of a R-kioski and once you are set up think about it over, they prolly wouldn't sign you a contract before you are properly settled up anyhow
Maven Mobile
Yeah that might be what happens.

R-kioski offers good snack too a quite delish hotdog for 2,5β¬ or 4β¬ with a 0,5l soda
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
cheap food in helsinki otherwise is well macD or subway pretty much hesburger is expensive and not good and BK has higher prices, though better meals if you have a pal, you can get 2 whooper meals for 10β¬, meaning 5 per head
don't buy anything from the train to eat, that is overpriced shit rather go to a store, s-market or any k-market/supermarket and just buy some stuff from there to eat
rather if a hot meal isn't the thing, just buy stuff from grocery stores, you'll save good amount of money
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
how much time do you have in helsinki anyhow?
Maven Mobile
Like i said It's only one evening I leave early the next morning
But after I'm settled in rovaniemi i plan on heading back down and seeing the place properly
>>555470 well red circles are the r-kiosks and the yellow squares are the two food stores, dunno if they are open on the 17th if you leave early enough there is one other store in the underground tunnels, but it overcharges
the lower rectangle has alko, state run monopoly store for booze attached to it, if you wanna stock on some booze already ofc, post 21 they aren't open and alcohol isn't allowed to be sold anyhow in stores
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
oh and this is guess work, but since nothing is open here, save for few bars, after 21. Don't expect anything to be open up much beyond office hours in Rovaniemie Boons is where you will live at

>>555482 Considering that half life 1 and 2 basically were good because there weren't that many games in the FPS genre at that point Especially with that long single player campaigns, and sure we havn't had that many of the sort since then, multiplayer having become a focus Instead of just being a half life game, which in the end is a basic solid well narrated linear fps game, the sheer expectations on it would just ruin it even if it was a solid 10/10 game, no one would score it that, unless it did something crazy or unheard of
Not that hl3 will ever happen anyhow
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
But would be interesting to know the story behind half life 2 episode 3 and such, why did it go into development hell and why didn't they ever come out and just say "naw won't happen anytime soon"

FormerRei@mobile
>>555490 Story was written, the writer's NDA expired like a year ago and it was released.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
So kinda curious why didn't they finish the episode 3, since they had shat out episode 1 and 2 in quite short time span
see when MORE time had passed, the pressure had started building but just off the back off episode 2, there wasn't the hype culture there is now After episode 3 ahd been delayed for I dunno year or so, they went with "we will go straight to HL3" in some random press mention, nothing commiting or anything but that basically started the HL3 hype
So I bet there is more to it than just >>555489 initially They had solid framework to continue with the same tech they used on ep1 and 2 and if they had a story, it would have been a simple job of just doing it Do the game and wrap it up at some point and then think is this the final end or do we still make more in some future date

If you negate something that's already negated it returns to its normal self
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
but now try to concretively think of something like that with say 2x2=4 you can just think you have two apples in groups of two how many apples? for a really basic example
ζ
lmao i have to pay $45 a monthif i wasn // want to use Visual Studio 2010 fucking heck
so you have two negative groups of two negatives, you have 4 things of course but then what about two groups of two negative things? as in -2 x 2
Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
yeah you now have 1 group of 4 negative things.
Kirara π
damn this voltron show is actually pretty awesome
TN !PcAPtAiNJoTN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>555570 it just eventually spirals into reference points, but some just don't work like say you take -4 apples as "you owe 4 apples" then how does -4 multiplying that get you now 16 apples lying around
it is silly thinking, but kinda amusing trying to approach it from a very basic angle
asking seriously bc ive never heard of that until today
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
yup negative numbers don't make sense without reference point like a take a living person as + and undead as - one undead is -1 and one living is +1 but say you have -5 undead in 3 groups approaching you, well you have -15 unliving people coming at you but you also still concretively have 15 things coming to nom you not lack of 15 people, but 15 things coming at you to nom you remove the reference point of "living and undead" and it falls apart
also, what would be a negative group
Maria
>>555586 I don't think it's "normal" I've never heard of it before today I bet it tastes good though
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
2 negative things in 2 groups and total amount of negative things is -4 but what is 2 positive things in 2 negative groups?
I guess 2 things removed two times over, you are now -4 less of a thing but then you attribute "removing" to the other part
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>555583 >>555586 seems like quite waste of money, stocks aren't that cheap
Kirara π
yeah it was like $3 for a juice box of bone stock
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
So the problem isn't in -1x-1 describing it, it just is that without reference point of what exactly the negative group is it becomes all weird if you approach it concretively >>555591 i never buy liquid stock, i always buy powder cubes saves space and they last forever
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
On that note, does anything that could be just said "that is -1" actually exist? would even antimatter qualify?
Kirara π
i haven't seen those are the store before
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>555594 I don't think the average store carries them, but at some deli's I have seen them bought 'em few times, but didn't really notice that big of a difference
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
god somebody stop my brain, I am now running some weird background process trying to figure out some weird unlife math
Kirara π
voltron is pretty funny

The idea of doing a podcast is honestly just seeming more and more interesting We should just do it and quit if we get bored of it
Kirara π
im down
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
what would you talk about anyhow?
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
soz that came bit condescending
sk
Whatever's in The Discourse at the time of recording or just fading out of it is a good source for like, steady content I wanna do interviews with organizers, too Oh and yeah, some babby-level ideological analyzing of anime maybe
>>555607 We could do an interview with your co-organizer about the new thing, and me being an outsider would be a good avenue to ask stuff that might not come up naturally with people who live in the US
Kirara π
could also talk about media and do analysis of it
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
I guess it might be fun
Kirara π
>>555604 interviews with organizers would be great i could potentially get us like molly and some other organizers and yeah we could talk about regional DSA shit that'd be pretty cool im getting familiar with a bunch of organizers in the south, especially in texas, tennessee, and georgia we're trying to do a massive southern US leftist conference and cookout
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>555604 tie it into a yt channel and do stuff on both
I aint' even mentioning it on the bird website until we have an episode recorded though, cause god knows my mind is a fickle motherfucker and often just ditches stuff hours after deciding
Kirara π
yeah same haha
idk how to even go about doing a podcast though
sk
We just record on discord and put it on soundcloud after some minor editing I guess
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
clean the audio, cut away some parts and shit and maybe add some sound effects or bg music
with you two alone it will be kind of an anarchist box, though
>>555617 yeah basically we should at least keep it left-wing
sk
Since I'm not extremely well versed in The Theory, we could do theory episodes as well, where we read stuff and then just discuss what we thought, not in a sort of "here's what it is and here's how to interpret it" way, but more like "We read this thing, here's some parts the two of us enjoyed and thought about"
I don't like telling people how to interpret stuff
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
hmm so I guess vomit happens in ep8
Kirara π
>>555620 yeah or if we interpret it differently we can talk about the differences we saw in it
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
but seriously, if they are going to fit in the raiders and then the butchery and it is 12/3 ep series, they sure have to rush things overlord s3
sk
Yeah, that's another good point
...maybe the first episode should just be a fucking mission statement
Kirara π
it would be really fun to do a leftist shadowrun game and record that
sk
We could propbably get an episode out this weekend if you have the time, assuming we go with >>555624 I should have time
Kirara π
yeah we probably can i have time afaik
sk
Maybe I'll rewatch psycho-pass over the next week and talk about that on an episode or something I've never really watched something for the purpose of like, talking about it afterwards, so that'd be a new experience
Kirara π
tfw you create a coercive hierarchy based on social factors and turn all the poor people and people who experience trauma into latent criminals and lock them away and they can never have a job
>>555629 come to think of it, the latent criminal system in the series and how usa treats their criminals is in the end quite similiar once you become a criminal, you will always be treated as such
sk
>>555629 I'm a little bit less interested in talking about the sort of views behind the system itself, though I do wanna talk about that too, and more in the MC's views based on her actions
She's not entirely on board, after all, but she is effectively on board
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
also time to watch annihilation
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>555632 akane is quite realpolitiks in that fashion se comes to understand the system and realises it is bad, but also realises she can't easily change it and bringing it down like the villain would have done, would cause more harm than good in short and long term
sk
Well, so she thinks anyway
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
It is the "vote people out of power" kind of approach reform rather than revolution continued existence of a system that causes some amount of victims, for a longer duration of time instead of a violent upheveal, that is guaranteed to cause many victims, atleast for short duration time and possibly for long duration of time too
certainty of change, with uncertain future vs uncertainty of change with certain future? I guess
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
fuck this light house
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
also shoes indoors do people actually actually do that?
Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
Until I get comfortable and remove them, or if I need to go outside shortly, yes. Otherwise no
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
you come inside you take the shoes off unless you really need to move something out of the hallway entrance and you leave them by the entrance
why bring all that dirt so far inside?
Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
If you don't want to bring dirt inside don't mess in the dirt
I wonder where the culture spreads from shoes indoor or no in finland it is quite easy to answer why >snow and mud
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>we see aging as natural but it is a fault in our genes or you know, the fault is not a fault but natural part of the gene...

this guy just earned himself at worst a court martial at best a quite nasty punishment
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>they go in otherwise full military gear, but no helmets please
Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
if they wear helmets you can't tell them apart as easy
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>3 of them didn't close the clasps of their backbags rip their lower back muscles
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
also I question each of them having a personal tent maybe added morale boost due to privacy, but... in terms of lpacking stuff up, they'd save space by having just one 6+ people tent
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
like one of these imaginatively named "half a squad tent" as it houses half a squad
Kirara π
haha that's not how the US would do it especially not US scientists
yeah def not it's actually weird that they have tents at alk they should have individual bivvies
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>555661 wait so if a us squad goes out, they camp in bivvies? like 8-16 fucking bivvies that is lot of things to hide from pryign eyes a small village
Kirara π
scientists generally do bivvies are incredibly small and low to the ground it's easy to hide them
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
I guess it works and since US is quite good at this war stuff... Ours is deeply rooted in efficiency and saving materials and gear, a very prussian mindset well finnish army is offshoot of german army in essence
sk
Well they're using gear soldiers would use, I would assume Since really only soldiers were intended to ever enter the Shimmer
Kirara π
>>555658 they would only really use one of these for an extended campaign where they intend to return there they wouldn't want to put it up and down multiple times
also get
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>555665 they are all soldiers soldier-scientists or well I guess special officers or whatever the term is
>>555666 nice with us only scouts and special deep-scouts and shit get special camping gear the troopers, be it infantry, grenadiers, pioneers, artillery dudes, all sleep in half-squads they are actually damn quick to set up, 5 minutes at tops, it just takes 4-6 people to do it
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
and in downpour rain, 2 mins
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
also >no gasmasks >no protective gear ... even EVOLUTION had proper biohazard gear for an alien environment
Kirara π
yeah they were not ready considering they had no idea what they'd be encountering
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
well their gun handling skills are actually well prepped gottagive them that >>555673 if you have been sending people in there for 3 years and no one has returned you would give them protective gear hell I think you'd send them out in fallout gear initially
Kirara π
yeah definitely considering the dude had symptoms of radiation poisoning, they should have gone in with hazmats and geiger counters
sk
WEll one did return So a gas mask seems obviously unnecessary
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>555676 and is dying of something that seems like radiation poisoning
sk
Well yeah but you can't have them walk all the way to the lighthouse in a fucking hazmat anyway
Kirara π
they would ideally breach wearing hazmat gear and use geiger counters to inform their usage of it as they move strategically through the shimmer towards the coast
Technically, they might have brought some stuff with them without us knowing, I guess It's not like fucking anything works anyway
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>in case of a nuclear detonation, grab some pine tree branches and use them to scrub away the fallout from your protective gear t. finnish army guidebooks circa 1980
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>555681 it is not something the average viewer thinks but I think it would have been neat if they had breached with proper gear at first and then stripped it, but kept say the masks or shit
Kirara π
yeah agreed i mean we don't technically see the breach but they could have been properly set up when they do
>>555685 we don't see them on the other side so we don't know if they tested for radiation or anything is what i mean
sk
Huh? Yeah we do We see them enter the shimmer >>555684 Yeah, true
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>ventress >no friends, no family WELL SHE IS A WANNA BE SITH LORD
Honestly if nobody's made it back anyway, I'd just bring like some food mostly

TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>none of them have the supports strapped... MY GOD your bags must be filled with styrofoam or something
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
I sometimes close the straps even when I am carrying an empty bag, just because it becomes more cofmy to carry
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
the full finnish marching gear was 40kg, though in proper order you had some of that on you, like the protective belts but still it would be 30 kg *plates not belts but then add to that food, ammo, what you happened to roll, like parts of the stove or tent or camo gear and you carried around essentially a small person's weight on marches
Kirara π
the animation in voltron is phenomenal
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
also >none of them have flashlights what the fuck
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
also the colouring for the "alien fungi" is just at times comeone does it have to be that pastel rainbow? you can have it alien looking, without having to have all of them be all the colours of the rainbow

I know the movie's supposed to be like A surreal movie not too tightly connected to reality, but the explanation for those fucking groots annoyed me bigtime
More often than not I'd imagine But also it's an alien thing and they're just sorta trying to figure out what's happening
Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
did somebody say quantum fluctuations
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>555724 I'd rather say it produces the most likely solution, basically pairs stuff and the one that pairs most likely is the result so I'd guess humans are getting mixed too with other humans
Kirara π
>>555727 it's not just fucking with dna, it's almost specifically changing hox genes
the bear was cool but why did it act like a serial killer in slashers? I mean it might have had too much human in it at that point but was *it might have just been semi-blind and smelless? there ain't a word for can't smell

yeah it seems like it absorbed whatever it was eating it probably got some level of human intelligence
the book doesn't end like that apparently book sets up a trilogy
TN !PcAPtAiNJo

very nice visual and the general concept was interesting

Kirara π
>>555776 it's not really trying to tie anything down it's just that he wasn't kaine and she knew that that her kaine was dead
the story is about the self-destructive tendencies of humans i think it's also about how trauma changes us
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>555779 well yeah but it is quite clear shew asn't fully herself either anymore

I had a really weird dream.
I was at the doctor and a nurse was like, "stick your tongue out and say aaaa" so I did, and she stuck her tongue in my mouth, then she was trying to kill me. I got away and went outside, and there was this flash of light, and then I was covered in rubble. Once I pulled myself out, I went inside and my dream switched to a detective sort of thing where I was interviewing everyone to find out what happened and who did it.
idk just because she tried to kill me doesn't mean she did whatever happened outside
Maria
Yeah but you should deal with her anyway and if she happened to have been the one responsible for what happened outside then it's just two birds with one stone
I got a text from my doctor's asking me to call them. I had a blood test because I was down with a bad flu recently, I'm kinda suprised that they would contact me so quickly when usually I never hear back from them. I had a blood test before and they said they won't contact you unless they think its something important, usually no reply about blood test means all clear. Doesn't make me want to call back,
ToN
well if there is something weonfg it would be best to call tuen and find out now rather than wait on it
and it could also happen to be nothing
Maria
>>555936 Better to get it sorted sooner than later. If it is important then you wanna nip it in the bud And like ToN said it could be nothing. It could be "we think there's a small chance there's something wrong so we need to take another test just to confirm there's nothing wrong"
