I know. First time got no response (or if I did, then I must have missed it somehow), second time's a charm.

 

Will note those.

orly?

I did. Investopedia has a Stock Market Simulator. If you sign up with Fidelity, you can have access to their stock trading program "Active Trader Pro" which lets you use monopoly money on the real market. And then MarketWatch has it's own "game" stock simulator: http://www.marketwatch.com/game/redditchallenge2015

So there you go.

I'm sick today. Not watching anime. Brush teeth -> prepare for bed -> bed in ~5-30 minutes (may watch youtube as I fall asleep, but I take anime seriously and prefer not to fall asleep to it).

Took my fat PS3 to a repair shop today. $50 to repair it. I was a bit surprised it was just that. The dude was cool. It was a single person owned business and not a chain. He had a bar code scanner for the PS3 and I have a Q-code image I can scan to get updates on my console's repair. Dude is legit. May sell him my slim PS3 as I don't need it after the fat one is working and he may need parts (since it's working).

I need a neti pot. My nose is killing me. An itch in your sinus' is so painful, and you can't scratch it.

Should I swap my 4460 for a I5 2500k?

might aswell there is little difference in ipc and you can easily make up for then by overclocking it

oh man you're really showing us all up with that power level

 

this is why I keep around some lower quality stuff to play with the intent of falling asleep

Vitalius seems to be close to Bash's lvl in terms of anime consumption. I may be wrong.

There's also anime that are perfectly-suited to falling asleep to them, even if you take them seriously.

It might be fun to compare what we've watched sometime, but then I'd have a lot of work ahead of me marking all the stuff I can remember watching before I joined anime-planet.

lol I watched ghost stories that way for a bit I think it is one of the 3 anime I have watched more then once because of that lol

If I'm watching anime subbed I cant fall asleep well i guess i shouldn't say cant because I tried to watch apple seed 3 times and fell asleep to it each time before I finally watched it through lol

Interesting I don't know much about it but I've got a feeling it'll be good.

Thats exactly why he shouldn't switch.

 

Why would he downgrade only for overclocking. Its totally pointless.

 

You say he could make up for the lower IPC by overclocking but then he stands to gain totally nothing.

Ikr, this is why I can't be arsed to make a list of shows I've seen, dropped and etc etc.

So much wooooork and im good at forgetting stuff. I still can't remember that naval/water world like Anime or that cave man Anime from the 80/90's. Pisses me off.

That's because you're grampa bash.

 

When i started watching anime i already had a site to list what i was watching, i'm pretty sure i have every single show i've seen on my list, or if i'm missing some it's 2 or 3 not more.

 

 

Vitalius seems to be close to Bash's lvl in terms of anime consumption. I may be wrong.

Wait what?

 

Vitalius i demand you talk more about anime then.

 

 

PS: For some reason i just remembered i saw the 1st season of zero no tsukaima and i didn't add it to my list.

[Techicolors]

wrapped up katanagatari. and man, was it a good ride. a very good ride. i'm honestly gonna miss watching this show for the first time now 

 

one thing that bugs me is Shikizaki's objective. i seriously need some clarification on what his objective really was. sounds like he wants to revise history but i wasn't sure in what manner. i guess that the current government was inadequate and he wanted to falsify all records of it? 

@helping think you can chip in? 

 

also episode 4 (or 5) was the most troll thing ever. feature an epic battle preview with sabi and kyoutouryuu but instead nanami fights the insect squad. nanami's fight was still badass though

[Charger]

oh speaking of drawing...

@MyInnerFred I think you may find andriod jones work interesting

I used to be able to find videos if him doing live drawings at concerts and stuff you can see his wacom setup in this interview

and a random performance thing i could find of his

idk if you guys read it but for the other people that won't, basically the guy did a lot of good work like Haibane, Welcome to NHK, Texhnoloyze, and Serial Experiments Lain

 

I think it might be similar to Lain, probably a parallel or same setting.

 

hopefully they keep same-ish artwork and vibes

it looks really fucking cool

something "new" in anime PLS

 

so hype

 

@Technicolors

he intended to change history because he foresaw the failure of Japan in the future and decided to change history by ending to shogunate, with the 12 weapons being the tool to do so.

pretty sure that plan fell through

this is what I can remember from it, that point of the plot wasn't too big of a deal to me.

 

And yeah Nanami was a total boss, sucked they had to kill her off

that episode where she rekt the ninja dudes had me on the floor

well from my knowledge the difference is very small and he could get more performance if he changed to the 2500k and overclocked it

[Jacona]

Feels gewd to finally be home. 

 

Looks like nearly all the 1st ep of stuff are out, shame I'd probably have to wait till weekend to watch em and drop em..

oh, that makes sense then. then kyoutouryuu broke all the blades (that entire process was badass) and killed the current shogun leader. i'm guessing that's the failsafe from the plan falling through. so does that mean history will go its path as normal? 

 

hmm i thought it was a pretty significant plot point. well it became more apparent in the later episodes.

 

yeah, it sucked that nanami and togame both died. though the latter death felt like it was coming ever since kyoutouryuu was revealed to be the last Deviant blade

I usually drown my eggs in soy sauce after cooking it. 

Dunno about the Japanese though.

<wakes-up-from-a-4-hour-nap-feeling-amazing>

I didn't mean it that way lol.

I prefer to get engrossed in anime. If I'm not completely focused on it, I feel like I'm wasting my time. It's one of the many reasons I find it hard to finish anime. If there's anything to distract me, I don't want to watch it.

Can't feel the feely feels if my phone keeps going off, I'm thinking about a game I really want to play (ATM Disgaea 4), or something like that.

This isn't just for anime. Any show I want to be emotionally invested in has these requirements. It's why, if I actually get to watching a show, I will either watch 1-2 episodes, or 6+.

Vitalius seems to be close to Bash's lvl in terms of anime consumption. I may be wrong.

Depends what you mean.

Do I take it seriously? 10/10 yes.

Do I watch tons of it and dedicate time to do it every day (it seems)? No. No I do not. For the aforementioned reasons.

Do I write reviews over everything I watch or desire to? Nope. I can't critically review things. "I like it." Or "I didn't like it." Is about all I've got. Unless there's some complex theme, comparison, or subject I noticed in the show, but that's not really reviewing the show.

If I feel like I can't commit significantly, I won't do it.

It's one reason I haven't seen many of the good shows out there like Breaking Bad, House of Cards, or Game of Thrones, and I haven't played many of the games in my Steam Library.

Even though they are directly available to me right now, if I am not in the right mood to experience them, I feel like doing so would be a waste of my time, and waste the potential of the show for me to enjoy it.

I'm a picky twat I guess.

And God help me in knowing when the right time is to actually experience them. So far all I've got is "I want moe, and I want it now."

The other more nuanced shows have more difficult triggers in me to find for that "right time to watch them".

I'm also a complicated person, it seems.

So yeah. This is a reason I don't understand how people can watch multiple series at one time (like literally, I think helping has mentioned that when a show hits a level of shit tier, he just has it play in the background to say he " finished it" sometimes while watching other shows).

Again, I feel like that's pointless for me.

Comedy (like stand-up or Game Grumps) is a thing that I can half pay attention to and still enjoy. Any more complex than that and I don't see the point.

I'll stop my tirade now. I need moar sleep. Then maybe I'll watch more VoE (8 episodes left).

I find the best time to watch stuff for me is directly after waking up. My mind is empty, so I'm ready to focus on something. Especially after sick sleep.

[Vitalius]

Oh, and I have ASMR for going to sleep to. @helping

So there's that.
