I hate to admit it but its probably because Kirara isn't around. For some reason certain people post less when he isn't around and then I in turn post less because there's fewer people around. And I fucking know he's going to make a fucking idol joke about it too when someone mentions it to him.

In more important news, my terminal cancer client is going to survive, most likely. They went in to remove the tumor between his skull and brain - an extremely risky surgery that would doom him in weeks if they didn't get it all out - and found the tumor completely necrotized. It was already dead. No chemo or anything. A god damn miracle

Yeah I was gonna say the chances of that feel like something astronomically near-impossible. That's a really fantastic thing to hear for him. Congratulations.

speaking of 45 minute episodes, how was psycho pass?
Anno
We've still got the last two episodes of it to go, but I've really enjoyed it. There's a lot of detective-ing and mystery about and the new lead duo are great, and their back-up squad is pretty solid too. The long-form episodes allow them to pace things differently than they'd have to with the usual episode lengths and the animation quality is overall pretty solid.
>>790237 >Dmomhiro I fucking hate tat guy so much. He's such a piece of shit.
Anno
>>790239 One of the lead duo is a bit of a weird savant that can so thoroughly adjust his thought and behavioural patterns that he can basically mentally become anyone. It's kind of one of those neat sci-fi "What ifs" that takes on extra baggage with the whole crime coefficient and Hues of the Psycho-Pass world.
Though despite the main protagonists being part of the Dominator-carrying law enforcement squad the themes of the plot arcs do kind of move away from focusing too much on them.
yeah and I got fed up of it at times too I hate every single 3rd person game since camera is always bullshit in them >>790270 except when on few cases it doesn't a fundamental issue of 3rd eprson camera no one has managed to fix yet for some reason when it gets stuck on the wall, behind you and the enemy is in you

>>790266 I'm gonna rewatch it since GLM subs came out GJM*
isue just is that you need to get his hp down, since you can't break his posture and he 3 hits your posture it is a dodge fest in a way too small arena against a guy who moves way too fast >>790280 he takes like 20% from a mikiri maybe once he is below 50% hp
Kirara 🍄🤡
you can break his posture

Kirara 🍄🤡
you should be deflecting dodge is sekiro is not great
also when you fight a boss for the first time the game tells you to start lowering hp of tough posture enemies since they'll recover two kick >>790282 if you deflect with perfect timing the posture damage is low/zero
Kirara 🍄🤡
when you are better at the game, you will deflect well just come back
>>790285 >just come back no everyone dies of dragon rot
Anno
You're not going to make any progress then. Like I'm not even gonna say you're making things harder for yourself if you insist on just dodging everything you're going to make zero progress.

>i'm going to do everything i possibly can to be miserable

watching someone fight twin gargoyles reminds me of the Daughters of Ash mod super version of the fight where they have to be around the same hp levels starting from the fight's start or else you can't damage them

if he goes to canada he would get 5 years jail time he only escaped by signing some documents agreeing to never enter canada again his company's lawyer got him the deal haha
his company's lawyer paid off authorities in mexico to get him out of the murder charges too

>>790457 Is the General Exchange player-driven or are the prices static? I mean I'd guess you're not the only shmuck with this idea so even if it's player-driven the prices are probably more or less level for the amount of logs one person would need to get a bond.
But there will always be some degree of demand for fletching and construction an' shit. And lots of players/bots do this already, so even if I dumped 20k into the economy that would just be a drop in the bucket
Anno
Yeah that's what I was getting at. All you shmucks that think it's a good idea are probably already an overwhelming number already. So the amount you'd contribute wouldn't have much of an impact.

which is RUN AWAY
unlike say dark souls or demon souls which was "die in a good spot"

>after that >can easily sneak murder infront of people as long as it doesn't surpass the detection meter
but the tooltips of everything in the game couold contain the information that you'd need that would be told to you in the tutorial

games in the past did that
games still do that
but some games don't do why who knows
Reki
The season's going by, i've been enduring it. I have so many ideas, so many new concepts going through my mind, fingers and mousepad tabs, but... I can barely get others with whom to interact.
It seems i'm considered a genius, though no one would admit thinking so. I' i guess this is considered something bad, although i don't consider myself anything out of the ordinary. This might have something to do with the fact that i barely interact with anyone else aside from me, though.
>>790679 DO IT oh come on you wre suppose to say "indeed "no one" and turn it back on me
Reki
>>790680 Would you describe that stating a "no care" stance is somehow rewarding for itself? Not that it has anything to do with me, but i've been trying to study this phenomena.
>>790682 I was going to say something else but I saw mats above me and kinda counted on a tag team effort-self-burn there but mats is too kind nowadays to do that to even me when I am asking for it so this happened
Koi
>>790678 give me more patchyoumus pls next book when
Reki
>>790679 Not exactly. It seems that the problem is that i did try to create a few pieces of either art or text, and the final result was decent. Decent meant good, good means possible competition, or at least that's the only reason i could come up with for something beautiful being considered offensive.
I don't interact a lot when it comes to having any amount of intimacy with others, i guess. I mean, am i smart? Am i dumb?
Truth be told, both assertions are comparisons. I have no one to compare myself against.
I mean, we live in such a social world, right? The fact that i'm trying to come up with an explanation for desire being some sort of system that generates impulses according to the amount of physical energy expended on the effort, which in case of failure will somehow create some sort of "free energy" that get assigned to frustration, must turn me into a really popular person.

FormerRei@mobile
>>790735 For like 30 seconds I thought you meant ML the programming language.
FormerRei@mobile
The language ML is also pretty cool. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ML_(programming_language) >It is used heavily in programming language research and is one of the few languages to be completely specified and verified using formal semantics. Its types and pattern matching make it well-suited and commonly used to operate on other formal languages, such as in compiler writing, automated theorem proving, and formal verification.
Samu 🕊 !KW2DbpWwls
ml is alright, i'd rather use rust tho
FormerRei@mobile
>>790739 I should learn that. Although Fortran is probably going to be more useful for me. Do you know if people have started to write any good linear algebra stuff in rust? Although I just remembered that the main reason rust is good doesn't apply to scientific computing. So maybe it wouldn't be useful for me.
Samu 🕊 !KW2DbpWwls
there is the well known cgmath and some other experiments like glam idk mostly these are developed for the purposes of game engines/other 3d renderers which have a lot of activity, moreso than other mathematical applications
FormerRei@mobile
>>790741 Yeah I did some looking around. >glam is built with SIMD in mind. Currently only SSE2 on x86/x86_64 is supported as this is what stable Rust supports. I wouldn't say rust is completely useless for scientific computing, but its basically a toy language compared to C,C ++ and Fortran. I'm looking forward to the future of rust. Anyways when I said "the main rason rust is good doesn't apply to scientific computing" I meant that security isn't super important in scientific computing.
FormerRei@mobile
Well, security in the programs, operating system security is important in any machine
Samu 🕊 !KW2DbpWwls

Samu 🕊 !KW2DbpWwls
what are you actually doing in fortran that's not legacy banking work? shit's dead yo
FormerRei@mobile
>>790745 Me personally, nothing yet. But its still the best language for scientific computing. Tons of shit uses it. C++ is catching up though. I mean you can use like bindings flr the libraries tobcall the functions from other languages. *from *for the But LAPACK is still written in Fortran. Probably everything by NAG is written in Fortran. (I don't like to support non free software but its supposed to be good) Mathematica uses Fortran libraries. Tons of stuff uses it.
Samu 🕊 !KW2DbpWwls
okay here's some shit this archetypal rei-samu conversational flow goes as follows - rei asks what i'm up to - i mention some stuff - if it's old classic shit, end program - if it's anything new, rei lightly googles it and gives the first possible criticism found online - rei goes to explain why actually classic thing is great - i'm left waiting for minutes to endure explanations of things i already know - rei doesn't even use any of this stuff, just writes about it
Anno
>>790745 Honestly if hearing from my dad is anything to go off of, Fortran in banking is still a relatively active workspace at least. Banks have such awful snarled systems that migrating to new systems is something no one wants to do so they're all just stuck using the same old dumb systems written in the same old dumb languages.
>>790748 yup it's great job security and it's why i'd never ever work for an old bank unless i was desperate for cash
Anno
The data entry-esque job I did for a bank back in 2015-16 was pretty much an attempt to migrate their information into a new system, merging accounts for people that had opened multiples in various departments or other banks this one had eaten up. Towards the end of my time there I was talking with my dad about it and he more or less said "Yeah I've seen them try to do this several times and they've never actually fully migrated to a new one once." I haven't asked him about it since then though, maybe this was The One Time it actually worked.
>>790751 sounds about right "history doesn't repeat itself, but it rhymes" is a phrase that comes to mind there are too many entrenched forces fighting against a clean rewrite in such institutiones
FormerRei@mobile
>>790751 Banking internals are very scary. I know a guy who does network security and he was talking about going into a bank once and he nmapped their network and found tons of suspicious devices that they had no idea about. According to him their security guy didn't even know what nmap was.
I heard about this the other week. Though I have no idea if it's applicable to your curiousity or whatnot but you mentioning e-readers reminded me of it.

> The following method may reduce the ringing in your ears, suggests Dr. Jan Strydom, of A2Z of Health, Beauty and Fitness.org. Place the palms of your hands over your ears with fingers resting gently on the back of your head. Your middle fingers should point toward one another just above the base of your skull. Place your index fingers on top of you middle fingers and snap them (the index fingers) onto the skull making a loud, drumming noise. Repeat 40-50 times. Some people experience immediate relief with this method. Repeat several times a day for as long as necessary to reduce tinnitus

My dm is making a super broken character for me for an epic level adventure. She is a demon lord, her theme is "sex and dying in high society". She has a gaze attack (well, her second gaze attack) that turns someone into gold.
