that's too much customization ill never play ;_;

You don't really have to go that deep. Most people probably won't but there are people who have used the customizers from the other games who are ... oh wait, they're watching it now
Anno
Yeah the game gives you a lot of simple customization options or even just an assortment - a HUGE assortment of furniture, clothing, and other decorative goodies to discover, or also I guess, craft in this one.

i thought i was a big koikoko person but komeo is way too powerful. this is like... what the hell he does all this with mouse. this pdf is 514 pages He's got a Legend of Zelda parody. A Madoka Magica parody. Uhh, you know that game on the 3DS where you beat up ghosts? Like it's one of the Plaza games. but he's got a parody of that in here too. And it's adventure book styled.
Anno
wow what a character combo
Koi
And now I'm reading a Mononoke-hime Koikoko storyboard
Anno
I wonder how many vertical levels Animal Crossing will have. I'm pretty sure I saw at least three. It would be awesome if you could make a waterfall from the highest level down to the lowest.
KoiKoi
I don't think I've ever watched this movie in one sitting. Like I've only gotten pieces and I don't know how the plot came together
Anno
Princess Mononoke is a pretty awesome movie. Gorgeous and tells an unfortunately timeless story of man's persistent mission to subdue and enslave nature.
Anno
I keep forgetting I'm pretty sure the music composers for Splatoon and Animal Crossing must share at least some overlap. Which means while probably not getting new Splatoon-y music for AC, we'll probably get something in a similar sound.

it really was the whole fuckin movie god damn

I got distracted while making my coffee and I forgot to do the press part of the french press surely this won't end poorly

It might be a bit strong but as long as you actually press it before pouring it should still be sufficiently strained. And if you pour it unpressed into your mug, then well, just pour it back in and do the press.

this 40 units per army mod has some interface issues
FormerRei@mobile
Tadaimback
!C0.PerkELE
well I discovered a downside to that mod due to the game being old and the mod being old for WHATever reason, the modder forces you to play on "eyecancer" level of graphical quality and I like to look into the battles and see my soldiers reloading their shit and dying in gore not just weird pixel shapes
so i guess the double armysize setting is out of the window as fun as it potentionally could be
I think it generally would just be the player curbstomping the AI, when you get to build your dream super army of bullshit

they trap themselves in odd places while close to death and meditate to death as in starve or thirst to death there and then some X days later they are dug up as a mummy

Dorohedoro's anime is only one-cour so far announced, so I dunno how deep into the manga it will cover. Moon's given me the notion that it's a decently long-ish manga though.
yeah but im still working haha ive been facilitating a transfer of my client to a detox facility all day
the fucking morons at the hospital fucked everything up my client had .259 BAC and 148/110 blood pressure we had an ambulance come and they were going to detox and stabilize him at the hospital and then bring him to a real detox facility but they fucking DIDN'T they brought him back to our sober house without communicating with us so he was completely unsupervised there and he drank five fucking white claws in like an hour and then i had to do all this extra work to make sure he got to the facility but then this moron didn't bring his ID or insurance card so i am collaborating with their intake guy to get them the information they need

I had been trying to get him to come with me for a while and he had a lt of fun. I came home early though because I wanted a ride home and my friend who was staying later could only drop me off on the south side.
Anyways his favorite game seemed to be tthe JJBA fighting game. The Dreamcast one. He played it with someone else though. That is the only competitive multiplayer game I've played with other people there that I'm undefeated in.

I pretty much always go to a diner near the arcade whenever I go (I go about 13-14 times a year). I have a monthly arcade trip with one group of friends and then I go every year on my birthday with another group of friends. And then I have a friend who moved away that I take to tge arcade whenever he visits. It's the largest arcade in the US, its called the Galloping Ghost.
沙耶
>>809030 Wow, that's a loooot of food. I feel like I haven't been to a diner in forever. Mostly it's just coffee/cafes these days.
>>809034 Also it's open 10am-2am 365 days a year $20 entry everything is set to free play except for games that have no free play mode For those they set up a button that adds credits. Here's their game list https://www.gallopingghostarcade.com/games-list/ I don't think everything on there is currently set up though, they have a decent amount of games that nneed to be repaired that they take somewhere to be fixed.
Its definitely skewed towards older games though Mostly stuff from the eighties and nineties.

how have you been? it's good to see you >>809038 i think i'm doing well enough. the last 8-10 months have been extremely turbulent. im getting used to a lot of new and difficult things, but i think im doing well. i've also been very busy with work. im being a full-time caretaker too. it's gratifying though so i can't complain about it.
i think the less time i have for myself, the better. i spent a long time in isolation and i need to keep from getting lost in my own head. ive set aside my studies temporarily while i adjust to things and try to find a long-term living situation. i hope to continue them and try to publish later in this year though. but for now i need to ground myself with some emotional and financial stability, and spend time with my mom while she undergoes chemotherapy
it's good to talk to you. i dont have a whole lot to say though i suppose

>>809171 but does make you think could you fool a tesla/autopilot into accidents by placing a surprise stop sign or trafficlights at some high speed middle of nowhere road
>>809173 most likely a bit of reflective red tape on a wall or something would be enough to confuse it just painting some yellow lines on the road is enough to confuse these cars and send them into driving in circles reflective tape on a speed limit sign could be used to trick a car into stopping and cause an accident
of course the speed limit increase would be much less effective because these cars have auto-breaking if they get too close to something no protective factors from behind so the ideal is stopping them and causing the car behind them to hit them
>>809176 sudden stop or a false turn would be most effective i figure

my 16 year old client is learning to drive and he hit the accelerator instead of the break in front of the gate at his gated community when i was a kid that'd have meant plowing through that gate his car just stopped wouldn't let him do it

Kirara 🍄 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
my problem with it personally is that the cars can be used to force me into specific driving behaviors what if i do need to drive through a gate? what if i do need to run someone down? what if i need to drive unpredictably? what if my computer malfunctions and refuses to let me drive properly? what if conditions change in the middle of my lane switch and the car tries to reverse my movement which causes the car to behave unpredictably?
!C0.PerkELE
For ecample, when i borrowed my pop's xar i bumbed it on a trash shack, due to forgetting how automat cars work and relying on the rear camera, which didn't show me the corner i bumbed into if the car autostopped, i wouldn't have relearnt better how to control automatic cars and wouldn't have even realised mynmistake

Anno
>>809188 that's one of my big complaints oh my name disappeared
if a car is coming at me in the wrong lane and i need to get out of the way to avoid a head-on collision, the car's computer will force me to stay in that lane or will at least resist me getting out of the way and will favor breaking because i'm quickly approaching an object it's a recipe for a head-on collision

It isn't anticapitalist per se more like just critique of society elites vs peons that afterall exists in all forms of governmetn and economical systems
!C0.PerkELE
if you have seen say Host, fromt he same director, I could rely what kind of a movie it is.

>>809206 I read an interview with Bong Joon-ho (i think that's his name) where he said that it was supposed to be anticapitalist He said all his movies are anticapitalist I've only seen Snowpiercer of his movies though and that was right after Cecilia died and I was wasted so I barely remember it just remember some guy's arm freezing off and weird train drugs
!C0.PerkELE
>>809208 yeaht hey defintiely are anticapitalist or well the modern paradigm especially the type you have in south korea the society is damn fucked up over there
but it isn't on the face or going like "this is baaad" and so on don't really want tot alk much since it does spoils ome of the story

ahh i think accidentally finding that the mod I was running for empire total war had an option "double artillery" was the best thing I have done this month

>>809209 I'm hoping to see it soon. I should be sending my dissertation to committee on Friday so I might actually have some time to watch the movie soon!

jfc christ I hate the older type of generals in total war sure it is realistic, but when you jsut have a 1/unitsize to get your general sniped you can guess how oft that happens to me >1 out of 100 dies >it was the genral stop jumping infrot ofb ullets you idiots
!C0.PerkELE
In later games they added some sort of factor to it, how low the general unit has to be brought down, ebfore the general can feed tho it does get kinda ridiculous at times, when the general unit is battered down to say 5 dueds and the 1 taht survives is the general always But it does avoid the damn annoying random general snipes

The izakaya I visit with my friend every other week or so is pretty rowdy tonight.

It's pretty nice since it means a bunch of cute girls around. Gets kinda noisy though when someone orders a sake bomb hah hah

>>809286 Oh not too much, keeping my nose to the grindstone. So you've had a roller coaster few weeks?
Kirara 🍄 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
>>809290 Me too. Busy busy! Yeah. My dissertation chair fucked me over so I lost my opportunity to get that internship in Washington and I have to go through the process again. But my dissertation is almost done and I'll be sending it out to committee on Friday. And my couples/sex counseling class is weird. I was assigned a fake wife for it.
Yuu
Wow, a fake wife! Is she nice?
Kirara 🍄 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
>>809292 Not really. I don't really like her. She's also already married! So it's kind of awkward. I've talked to her once even though we've been fake married for three weeks.
Anno
Sounds like a real marriage.

>>809283 This is an izakaya, not like a quiet dive bar or anything. Dumb party things kind this are pretty normal there. It's a good place, I would definitely take people out
Kirara 🍄 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
there was a fish in the percolator
Yuu
>>809293\ weird fake marrying out already married people is weird seems like it would undermine the purpose of the experiment and why would a married person need to learn about getting married
>>809300 We're supposed to be a fake couple that provides marriage and sex therapy to other fake couples. For roleplays in class. But it makes me really uncomfortable and I can't drop the class unfortunately, haha.

So you guys roleplay like healthy marriage situations so people who are having trouble can see how it works?
Kirara 🍄 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
>>809309 Yeah, basically. But for the sex therapy roleplay, it's supposed to be stuff like, we teach people how to improve their sex lives. I'm not too big on it. This is the only class that was available for me to take, though.
Yuu
Oh, so it's sex therapy? like How detailed does the roleplaying get?
Kirara 🍄 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
>>809311 We'll have to make up a sex life detailed enough to talk about it as clients. And then when we roleplay as clinicians, we'll have to talk about stuff like what sex positions clients should be using or how to masturbate. Stuff like that. I'm really not happy about it. But the professor is like 70 years old and kind of crazy so nobody will do anything.
PANrela
the fuck
Yuu
Hmm, so you talk about sex positions? Why do you have to be fake married to do that? Or why do you have to be fake married to even make up a detailed sex life? One person can do that.
I don't understand the point of the fake marriage.
PANrela
I think the fake married is just for the client side aspect and you probably have to be fake married because 70 year old teacher and PREMARITAL SEX IS A SIN BACK IN MY DAY
Kirara 🍄 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
>>809314 Yeah, like Pan said, the marriage is just for when we're clients basically.
We're supposed to be a team because it's apparently weird for a man to teach a woman about sex and vice versa, so we have to tag-team it.
But I don't really want to teach anyone about sex.
Anno
>>809315 Geez PAN I didn't know you were -that- old
PANrela
>>809317 That's my secret, I'm actually in my mid 40s
Yuu
Oh, I get it. I thought you were roleplaying for the purposes of therapy. But you're actually roleplaying for the purpose of teaching therapists.
Kirara 🍄 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
>>809319 Both. We're role-playing as clients to teach other therapists and also being taught by being therapists to other class members role-playing as married couples.
Yeah, seems like a bummer. Seems a bit mismanaged too. It seems like it would be more helpful and less awkward if the scenarios were preprepared and people just read them. Instead of pairing people off and making them be fake married. That's a bit weird.
Kirara 🍄 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
They should just find me a real wife!
The professor wants us to be uncomfortable. He's just one of those guys who like to see people squirm.
Anno
Could you ask them to find me a real wife too.
Kirara 🍄 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
Nah, I'm too proud to ask for help. I just keep pretending like I don't mind being single. In fact, I prefer it! Or so I find myself saying.
Anno
I guess I'm stuck on the opposite side of the problem. I'm pretty open about wanting a partner ... I think, but I'm too resigned to failure for anything to happen.
Yuu
How much longer do you have in the class? I assume it ends in May or so?
Kirara 🍄 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
I'm extremely popular with older women and gay men. It's become a bit of a problem.
>>809327 Yeah, May. So I'm stuck with my fake wife for a while. At the end of the semester, we get divorced.
>>809333 i can't believe she's even more tortured by tsu trying to steal her dad! i also wonder how much we can impact the past and how much is going to be a 'preordained' happening
Kirara 🍄 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
>>809331 Nah. To be honest, the class is pretty difficult for me so it's hard for me to get into the roleplays. It's very offensive to my sensibilities as someone who has been extremely committed to relationships that were stolen from me by fate.
>>809375 Yeah. I can't sleep past 6:00 even if I go to sleep at 3. So I have to sleep earlier to get enough sleep.
Yuu
Why can't you sleep past 6? That seems like a terrible condition.
Anno
I can't wake up earlier than like nine unless I have like a billion alarms and even then still.
Kirara 🍄 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
>>809377 It's just the condition of my brain. I had to wake up at 6 until I was like 22 so it probably fucked up my brain. I could sleep later when I was drinking but I can't now. I'm doomed to be a morning person.
Yuu
Lately I've struggled more and more with waking up early, it's such a pain.
Anno
you get used to the 3-4am starts
Anno
>>809380 Do you want to go to sleep earlier hah hah
Yuu
I have trouble going to sleep early, anime has nothing to do with it.
Anno
What's been keeping you up? Worries?
Kirara 🍄 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
I usually wake up around 5:30. I wake up with plenty of energy usually. I'm a full blown morning person.
Anno
I wasn't a morning person as a kid, it's only gotten worse with my nocturnal habits as an adult. I joke about moving to the west coast or something to fix all my scheduling problems that keep me up late at night but honestly even if I was there I'd still probably be up to like two or three in the morning.
>>809384 hmm, stress probably has something to do with it I'm naturally a night person though. Rather than not being able to sleep, my problem is waking up. And not being able to sleep long though. It's weird to have both problems at the same time.
I feel like I can't wake up well enough on weekdays and can't sleep well enough on weekends.
>>809385 That's so early! I have trouble gettingu up around 7 or 8.
Anno
Hm, yeah, I kinda get that. When I don't need to be up at any particular time, I tend to stay in bed like ten or so hours. But it's like, a five hour sleep period, then I'm kind of waking up when I "should" be waking up, but I just conk out again and the next five hours is me coming in and out of these half-sleep states that don't leave me well-rested and just end up at the end of that ten hour period just leaving me feeling groggy and awful. Usually at least when I'm getting up because I need to be doing something I can get up, usually, but it's often after like three or less hours of sleep which doesn't make the rest of the day easy!
>>809394 I think it's probably hard to be an internet person and an early riser. So much of the fun on the internet happens late.
Anno
At least on the east coast in particular.
Kirara 🍄 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
>>809398 Yeah, I've sacrificed a lot of fun times for a good night's sleep. My health is just too important.
Yuu
That's a very respectable and diligent way to be. It's too hard for me to not internet.
Anno
I don't even know what not being the Internet would be like at this point.
Kirara 🍄 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
>>809401 If I don't take card )/ care of myself, I'll start having daily breakdowns like I did a few years ago. I'd probably relapse, too. I have to take care of my life or I'll lose it! It's not about diligence or anything. It's just how it has to be if I want to be happy.
Kirara 🍄 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
And as much as I want to stay up, it's already super late. Goodnight.
Anno
It's only 23:30! I haven't even had dinner yet! But yeah night.
Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
please have a restful sleep my friend
Yuu
Night, have a good sleep.
Yuu
I will be around for anime tonight, by the way! I guess I'll shoot moon an email. He may not know to show up.
Anno
Oh, okey dokes. I kinda had half a notion but yeah, good to know. I'll ping Moon where I can too. There'll probably be some stuff we could even do just the two of us anyway.
Yuu
Yeah, we can chew away on the backlog at the very least.
JaPAN
chewing away at anime how's anime taste
Anno
Hm, I'd say the flavour's kind of two-dimensional.
taking an uber home, wonder if ill be on time #d20 (20)
