Do you read them? I don't, very much. I find them kind of superfluous. Worse still if they're written by someone who's not the author, and years after the book is published, or after the author is dead. At that point it's just somebody's personal interpretation of a work,before you get to the work itself.

depends, i don't read as much as i use to, and the last books i've read where "how to" books, and a good few of those books are filled with padding, unnecessary stuff. like if you ever searched for a recipe for chimichangas and the beginning is filled with a personal blogpost about how Sally's mom made life changing chimichangas that made her into the women she is. crap like that is skippable.

Hello Foruda-san,

Wanted to check in on the status of last week's outage.
Had some stakeholders pinging me about it, so looking to clarify how we won't have it again.
It seems to be due to patch 10.532 on XP but maybe we can isolate the DLL causing the negative bit flip?

I threw some time on your calendar so we can discuss future mitigation strategies.

Best regards,
Oliver

Hello Oliver,

So I just had a couple back-to-back meetings on this, and wanted to follow up from our previous sync this Friday.

John from Infra gave me an interesting update regarding the patch mechanism for our delivery platform across devices located within your clients region.

The propagation between two pub servers resulted in a double update of clients within both update zones.

The bottom of the line is that there was an oversight on making sure a system does not update again after receiving the first batch of updates, but this was pushed back on by Core team and we've since shelved that KPI of update failures.

Central point is, we're preparing a meeting with leadership to solidify the KPIs needed and from there generate enough leverage to get Core team to send one more update out that accounts for these overlapping zones. I'll be sure to vouch for your position here—we don't want clients receiving double updates in the future.

I sent you an invite link to take this offline if needed. Otherwise, I'll see you at the meeting.

Best,
Foruda-san

I walked into the headshop with a mix of snooping and trepidation. The walls were lined with shelves and demonstrate cases filled with colorful pipes, bongs, and other smoking accessories. The aura was compressed with the friendly pong of incense, and reggae music played softly in the background. A clubby shop assistant greeted me and asked if I needed help finding anything. I admitted that I was a bit overwhelmed by the selection, and he offered to reveal me some of their best-selling items. As he pulled out a graceful, cutlery vaporizer, he explained how it worked and the benefits of using it once again traditional smoking methods. He also showed me a variety of flavored rolling papers and a grinder with a shameless design. I ended up leaving with a occasional items, appreciation nervous to go absent from my new purchases. The experience had been surprisingly enjoyable, and I was impressed by the expert and on good terms staff. I couldn't be put on ice to report in rear and explore more of what the headshop had to offer.

Admire them! ヽ(´∇`)ノ

But srsly, most of them are in a "suspended" state - I only have 40 or so that are currently active

It's all things that I am/was deeply researching or working on. Eventually a thread of tabs will grow unmanagable (I use a vertical tree tab extension), and instead of taking the time and effort to go through it all, I just start a new "thread" and do the same thing all over again (ﾟｰﾟ)

It doesn't help that I'm always working on an ungodly number of projects at once...

I don't know how many people here have had sexual experience firsthand or have a lot of general life experience but time and time again I've seen a lot of people who have had sexual experience say the same thing. It's not that great. Not necessarily that it's bad or anything, just that it shouldn't be hyped up so much. I don't understand why that is though. I haven't had seggs since highschool and it being so long since then I wish I could get laid instead of just being the autistic kid (not literally I'm in my 20s) that spends the bulk of his time watching YouTube or playing vidya. Since sex is something hardcoded to our bodies there's no doubt in my mind it feels good either. IDK. Maybe this is just my ignorance speaking but I can't imagine why it wouldn't be all that great because a lot of the time it's something I'd want, and even masturbation on its own feels good so the real thing is certainly even better.

What made you take notice of it? What itch does it scratch that no other mediaform can reach? What is one thing you like about that non-anime fans or casuals don't seem to understand.

Here it is for me:
1. I took notice of it because it was overflowing with style. Not only did the animation look slick and cool, it moved wonderfully as well. I remember going through this very wonderful phase where I would smoke pot and watch loads of AMVs. I would be so wasted sometimes that the anime scenes would take on this very solid looking, 2.5-D look which mesmerized me.

2. The scratch it itches is my boner.(´人｀). There's such a rampant sexuality in anime, which has not been seen in Western Media since the exploitation movie boom of the '70s and '80s. I don't think anything else but anime is so gratuitously lurid.

3.The History. One thing I love about anime, at least as we know it today, is that it was in large part an outgrowth of Japanese nerd culture. I love all the references you can see, which interconnect anime, manga,movies, sci-fi novels, table-top games, video games---
In a way animanga is the perfect mirror version of the Western comic/cartoon industry. But while comics languished, oscillating between irrelevant stagnation and desperate attempts to appeal to normalfags ("comics aren't for kids anymore! Cartoons aren't for kids anymore"), anime seemed to chug along, powered by obsessive, self-indulgent nerds, and then rose to prominence whilst sacrificing much less of its strangeness and edge.

What appeals to me is always changing, I think.. At first I was simply amazed with how stylish and lulzy it could be. It was nice talking to my friends about it.

Over time, I started to appreciate the references and and the pure, unashamed indulgence - not just boner-inducing sex scenes but conceptually, the way that passion can flourish in anime, even if it's 100% RETARDED there are so many anime that take their premise to the fullest. It's really fun to see.

Exploring how each show and the medium as a whole influenced or was influenced by a cultural movement, a particular fad, a musical scene, a time period, or just other anime is also super interesting. Anime seems really bizarre when you first encounter it but after picking it apart, it's an extremely dense type of art. There is a lot going on behind the scenes, and outside the scope of just animation, and all of it is really cool. It's just endlessly interesting! I love it!!

I feel like 2000s anime is quite popular with riajuu? Bleach, Naruto, Death Note, Samurai Champloo, et al. It's 90s anime that people don't care about. Even self-proclaimed hardcore otaku often profess to have only seen Evangelion, Berserk and Cowboy Bebop, and then they're left scratching their heads and mumbling "Well, I saw Pokémon as a kid, I guess..." as they try to think of anything else from the 90s that they've seen.

Isn't it weird how no one in the West™ gives a fuck about Hajime no Ippo?

I'm chasing the depressing emotions I used to get from seeing violence everywhere in it, but as I grew up I've started to take things less at face value and think about what I'm consuming more, and while you could say its because I grew accustomed to violence, I don't think its the sole reason for not feeling that way now.

>How do people actually make their fingers fit in between the frets?(;ﾟДﾟ)
You need to fully hook your fretting hand underneath and around to the fretboard side of the neck, with your thumb still on the rear side, and have your fingers in a claw-like posture (fingertips should be "pointing" towards the fretboard, not upwards to the ceiling)

This allows you to press the strings with the very ends of your fingertips, which makes it easier to avoid touching the wrong strings. Fingernails on your fretting hand need to be trimmed right down if they're not already, since they will obstruct you from using the ends of your fingertips

Some basic chords that work together: G, C, D, Em, Am, Bm
Then try adding these to spice it up: D7, E, A, B
Then these: G7, C7, E7, A7, B7

having a sensei is great, but make sure it's an actually good one, otherwise you're better off self-learning. speaking of self-learning, im pretty sure there a bunch of decent online courses like justinguitar. but still, a sensei can give you real-time feedback and stop you from developing bad habits.

also do bother learning the theory. u know how to play a major chord but why it's major and how it's made? knowing these kind of things won't directly improve your skillz but it makes you understand how the instrument and how music works, and that will in turn improve your playing because you now know what you're actually doing while playing.

start from the chromatic scale, then simple harmony (3rds and 5ths) and the major mode, and then triads. after that you can keep studying harmony (the 7th and the other intervals) and then you can learn quadriads. this is more or less all i learnt in my first year of taking lessons from my cool teacher.

everything you learn in theory has it's use during playing. in fact, you're gonna learn very basic stuff and then practice a lot those things. you learned simple harmony? time to practice triads and scales until you can't take it anymore. practice, practice, practice... that's what learning an instrument is all about.

to sum it up, practice a lot and find a sensei. if it's a cool guy it will help a lot.

I've been reading "how to read a book" by Mortimer J Adler and he says that to learn something is to "elevate yourself from a state of understanding less to a state of understanding more with the help of someone who knows more than you about a certain topic" while being informed about something is just memorizing facts. To know about a topic means to understand why that is so, how it came to be like this and how it relates to other topics.

I'm addicted to Kantai Collection, it takes up all my time. I spend all my money collecting acrylics and video games leaving me broke and penniless. People look down on me. I saw Densha Otoko, the drama not the movie, and saw the otaku MC and I was like "jesus, that's how people see me. I don't wanna be that guy." I've realized spending all my life on imageboards and pirating anime has damaged by fragile brain and now I can't function as a normal human being. I had dreams once!
