ZASSHU!
 
@EarlGrey was about to suggest him
not sure about Ramses not sure why Nero and Gil Are together like that. she's far more respectful
 
well, all of them are proud king
@Memor-X how do you mean more respectful
 
12:29 AM
@EarlGrey well she accepted her failing as an emperor and did not blame her people for the uprising
Gil would be "what would mongrels know"

Q: Can i ask a question about western localisation of anime/manga/visual novel?

GagantousFor example, What's happened to anime B localisation in western ? Why it got canceled ? Or What's happened to the visual novel B in western localisation ? Why it got canceled ? or why there is no update from the team

1:52 AM
@Gao he still active on SO tho, I thought it's the same with @Prix but I don't remember anything like that. But it's probably because DMCA thing
 
was a lot of his posts affected?
 
don't know, but his last chat was asking about that
 
Gao
2:08 AM
@EarlGrey DMCA thing is recent. He probably is just busy programming.
 
well, maybe. We won't know unless he says something
 
Gao
well i also probably won't be here often soon
need to spend more time to invest myself
have 7 posts i need to edit, but not sure if i'll be able to go over them all
right now, 10 out of 10 jobs are either way out of my league or reek of epic suckness
 
job hunting?
 
Gao
I'll be in a pretty bad position if that one job I've applied which might be able to pay twice my last salary and which really looks like a proper "software company" rejects me.
 
2:24 AM
better have a plan B, C and D to be safe and calm
check what the internet has to say about them
 
Gao
yea so i'm applying more, even ones that suck
the internet doesn't have anything good to say about many of them
 
I've seen a couple places that looked good but something was off about the job description, looked it up and surely it's a total shitshow
if they're bad you'll know
now I look up everyone extensively
good things are usually never posted out there, but that doesn't matter
bad things is what you'll definitely find, so look for that
also, do you have any friends among colleagues who could recommend a better workplace?
(asking colleagues has never worked for me but who knows)
 
Gao
not really. colleagues mostly still stay at the same places i quit from
or they applied to other so-so places
they even joke that the company starts to go downhill after they've joined them
oh, C# seems to be popular among the bad companies here, don't know why
not that i know it anyway
 
@Taisho who

@Gao yea my experience has been the same
it's like it's rare to want to climb the ladder and get higher pay and better conditions
@Gao it's just popular worldwide in general
sometimes people who write vacancy descriptions don't know any better and write c# without specifics
 
Gao
@Hakase python is also popular, but it seems that jobs that require them are on average better
 
you can get the idea of what the job actually entails
 
Gao
a lot of them have c# and java together, but i don't know why one would want to use both
 
c# is never really popular here, don't know why. And here c# is the only one language I actually learned
@Gao why not asking for a friend from college, they should be working in various place
 
2:41 AM
like if you're gonna have to do web dev (client-side or backend) or write lots of scripts or develop server applications or something else like management
 
Gao
@EarlGrey the friend that works in software field is in microsoft
i don't think i'll be working there
 
c# usually means xaml pages or mvc/winforms apps
or sometimes the chosen language over java to write the services
a couple years ago it was either c# or java
job process was basically the same
 
Gao
they're too similar, you either use c# or you use java
 
except now java means it's gonna be old stuff and probably tied to banking or money processors, and c# is "not that"
 
Gao
but java still a better choice for linux and android
 
2:44 AM
idk, there's mono or .net core which is multiplatform
 
Gao
mono only supports winform and not mvc if i recall correctly
 
haven't done that at work yet
 
Gao
or was it mfc
 
that's something related to c++
 
3:13 AM
@Gao when all you have is a handle and a stonehead of a hammer...
 
3:25 AM
@Unihedron who uses stone hammers tho
 
@Hakase yeh i don't get these because of what the end result is
 
the end result is you've enjoyed a tasty drink probably
I wouldn't know coz I don't drink cold stuff or anything with ice in it
almost every time I do I get sick with cold at the end of the day
idk how people do that
 
idk how you manage to get sick just because of that
 
@EarlGrey i think he meant sick and tired of the cold? In Russia it always snows (according to movies)
 
:p
old news but still interesting info
no but for real it's super cold and my throat can't handle icy slush frost
if it's not blazing summer sun, it gets fucked up and hurts for the rest of the day
 
3:36 AM
@Hakase http://kotaku.com/practical-joke/ just redirects to the main page
 
idk works for me
 
is the joke the fact someone reported on a fake kotaku article?
 
uhh you might have some broken addons
 
@Hakase ahhh.... hmm might be geoblocking bullshit because i get https://www.kotaku.com.au/?r=US at the end
 
it showed me a page with a popup asking to disable adblocker first tho
 
3:37 AM
@Hakase don't have adblock
only onetab
 
get adblock then what are you doing mang
who doesn't have adblock these days
unsolicited advertisement in 2017? psh
 
@Hakase people running Selenium and use a website that either has no ads or doesn't have intrusive ads (ie. Dynasty Scans, Yuri-ism)
 
user image

fyi, adblockers also prevent google analytics and such from loading, which speeds up the total page loading time
 
@Hakase i get no slowdown on either of thoses
 
3:40 AM
you could whitelist them or donate to them specifically and use adblock for all other sites
but sure you could skip all that entirely
I'm just saying that's what some people do and sometimes it makes their browsing experience nicer
 
@Hakase pointless for selenium because i have never been successful in creating a browser session based off the main profile. as such when i add an adon it's a clean install of it
 
yea if you do automation idk maybe it's not a good idea
 
i could try and automate reading the settings but then it's just taking up more time for an improvement i provably wont see
 
I'd go straight for hosts ip filters if it was to speed up page load times for a test at work
 
@Hakase lol, this shit is never for work
it's always for me.....downloading shit tons of images while i do other stuff
 
3:44 AM
yea yea I know
 
so. how are things @Hakase
 
haha why this question all of a sudden

Q: At what point did Aizen switch with Momo?

Memor-XDuring the battle of Aizen VS Shunsui, Soi-fon and Toshiro, at the end when Toshiro impales Aizen on his sword the barrier that was protecting Izuru and the injured Soul Reapers came down and Momo started to walk off in like a trance. at that time Ichigo yells out what everyone was doing reveali...

 
and why this question all of a sudden
 
@Hakase i ask that of everyone now and again. just that alot of the time your talking through the speaker in @Taisho's scarf
 
3:49 AM
oh that's just coz he's always logged in and I'm not
 
@Hakase you talking about the question Sakamoto posted? i only just finished the final battle with Aizen on the weekend
 
I have the nisekoi manga page open and I haven't closed browser in a while
 
@Hakase define a while
 
when I close it, the session will clear and my login will be gone again
about 20 hours
I already started getting fucking weird youtube video recommendations in the sidebar
 
@Hakase isn't it preserved via cookies?
 
3:50 AM
and my search results are getting poisoned by previous searches
 
oh wait. you incognito?
 
idk how it works, I just know all searches and suggestions look much better from a clean slate
ya I set up firefox to clear session every time it starts
also to not remember browsing history
 
@Hakase ok, not exactly incognito but it's close
 
it literally says "always browse in private mode"
and opening a private window does nothing, it's the same session
this year I caught my self always hitting ctrl-shift-p directly after starting firefox, for a few years, so I decided what the hell let's just make it default
anyway
I guess I'd say I'm in a weird place right now psychologically
 
I find browsing history is quite useful. I can search stuff I read again
 
3:54 AM
everyone around is either getting married and plopping out babies, or getting a girlfriend/boyfriend and it looks like they're happy, and I'm conflicted as you would expect
@EarlGrey I usually bookmark the things I like and then when I type something into the address bar, it may suggest one of my bookmarks if there's a partial text match
if I do like it enough, I put it in the "read soon" bookmark folder and I do read it all soon enough
(bookmarks > onetab :p)
((but to each their own, I'm not gonna argue about browsing habits))
 
@Hakase how? you want a family too?
 
… and so I'm reading some mangas where they (obviously) touch upon topics of romance and relationships, and it started to feel differently to me and I'm trying to figure out wtf
it's like I never got bothered by any of the confession scenes or love triangles in anime or manga before
and now I am!
and it's spooky and intriguing at the same time
I wanna figure out what makes me feel that way
@Memor-X well, to everyone family means different things, and I know what I want, and I don't want it like they are having it, but I still do want what I want
I've been pretty confident in my point of view on family like that for years
 
oh wow. i didn't know Bulma's Seiyuu died
 
but a close friend of mine recently got into serious relationship with someone and that kinda blasted up my confidence somehow
I wasn't planning on marrying them or anything, and we haven't talked for 2 years at least
 
@Hakase I already bookmark too much if I bookmark everything I can't manage it more anymore
 
4:00 AM
so I'm not entirely sure why I feel this way
 
most of those are just random stuff anyway
 
@Hakase so what's the conflicted part? or is it just that your reading manga which is dividing your attention is about the same things they are talking about
 
it's important to clear up old unused bookmarks from time to time
 
I did that regularly
still have so much
 
@Memor-X manga is giving me ideas on new ways to look at myself and my situation
I catch myself not wanting to read it sometimes coz I'm afraid it may hurt my feelings
that's like wow
and of course I wanna read even more because of that
I gotta figure this out
that's what I do
it's weird
 
4:04 AM
 
I suppose that's all there is to this conflict of feelings
the important part though is there's something new I gotta figure out about myself
 
@Taisho there's one way to fix up conflicted feeling. play Catherine
 
and that's something I always welcome
I watched a youtube playthrough without the actual levels gameplay, it was pretty nonsensical and boring
(so just the cutscenes)
I should probably finally check out that space odyssey movie
I already tried it twice at different ages and I think I remember getting bored to death within the first 10 minutes or so and dropping it
somehow I could manage to watch tarkovsky's solaris tho
 
@EarlGrey O_o Reply across time and space
 
4:19 AM
ya that's what happens in this room
 
whoa you're back
 
it's a time-space cafe
alright now u gotta tell us what's been going on and why you haven't visited for so long
I'll go make some tea
 
^ this
@Hakase that kinda reminds me of a weird maid cafe anime by SHAFT
 
@nhahtdh hihi
 
@EarlGrey which one
 
4:21 AM
forgot the title... machi... something-something
 
ah yeah that one
 
(googled shaft maid cafe anime)
 
@Hakase Let's see... Job is one, then gaming is another
 
what job, what games
 
4:22 AM
no animu?
 
mangoose?
 
please explain in great detail; to these people who have never had jobs or games :D
 
@EarlGrey Sadly, job and games took up all my time. No animu, but read some light novels, though.
 
I thought games are jobs
 
@Hakase It's true to some extent
 
4:23 AM
(flashbacks of game qa testing)
 
@nhahtdh i said that too
@Hakase if you're trying to unlock Luke Skywalker it is
 
(Flashback of 9 hours working + 2 hours to commute, then 4 hours of gaming)
 
same same
 
Only did that for a few months, then it's mostly working at weekdays
 
I did that for like 2 years with a short break of 4 hours working days and no commute for about 5 months
looking for a more regular job closer to home these days
 
4:26 AM
I kinda burned out at the end and get an "indefinite holiday"
 
I got crazy at the end of my first year of work, couldn't think straight
 
ima ni itaru, NEET no seikatsu wo modorimashita
 
looking back at it now, it's not a healthy way of living
but teh moniez right now are not the same
gotta save for that feeling of financial security :p
 
Now I'm looking for a job that I want to burn myself out for (the last one is not), or something that is not that demanding
 
in which industry?
 
4:29 AM
Software Engineer, but I would like to work in Information Security
 
no advice from me :p
I just make things work well enough, not with super high standards of security
 
If you are working on a software big enough, for sure anything regarding security moves slowly, unless it's something that has a fix ready (replace library), configuration
 
I think I wanna transition into database administration and management coz it pays more and doesn't seem too hard to learn, but right now I only have the most basic sql knowledge
yea I know, but in the real world is usually ends up being something that someone other than me gets authority over, and I just write the webapps to the specs my seniors come up with
banking software is pretty srs biz but they don't let just anyone code the real important stuff
 
@Hakase Like hell they will, unless you have been working there for a while, and in house
 
4:34 AM
I'm not working anywhere for a while :p
the pay doesn't rise with each passing year as I've found out
gotta change jobs if you want more moneys
especially it's weird that banks pay 10-15% below market rate for the same job
 
@Hakase Yeah, it's the norm, unless you have a special position in your project
 
so far I'm only a mid-tier programmer, so nothing special yet
and by god if you can't teach someone how to do your everything in 2 weeks idk what you're doing
some of my colleagues are so paranoid about their job security… dang
secrets secrets
(general dislike of the corporate culture and insecure employees)
ok now
games
what have you been playing
have you seen kimi no na wa and koe no katachi?
 
@Hakase Kimi no na wa - Yes, on airplane. It was good, and the most explicit ending by Shinkai Makoto
 
yyyeeeeaa
I liekd it too :3
 
Koe no Katachi - No. Only read the pilot chapter. Not sure if I will ever pick it up
 
4:41 AM
watch the movie
it's shorter than reading it (I'd think, but idk) and it has a unique character development time budget
I just liked how everything had just enough time and it wasn't too long
pretty unusual in feature films if you ask me
 
Ha ha, I still have a year's worth of backlog to watch )_(
 
I know
that's why I've been watching movies almost 1 every day throughout my first 3 university years
movies are just 1-2 hours long and contain a whole story, while series are usually 20-45 minutes long and there are 12/24 of them in a season, and if there's multiple seasons I'm out
just start with the movies
 
Is it a recap?
Like with AoT or Gurren Lagann?
 
uhh I was talking in general
 
I mean is Koe no Katachi a recap of the series?
Or is it original?
 
4:46 AM
there's no series
 
recap of the manga
 
there's only manga
64 chapters idk how much that is
 
@EarlGrey It'd be adaptation
 
yea
 
some chapters are 8 pages, some are 50 pages
 
4:46 AM
Oh, I thought that it was a series, then adapted into movie to milk money like the other 2
 
hard to say if they left a lot out or not
nono it's direct movie adaptation
(just learned you can ctrl-backspace to erase whole words)
I didn't like AoT series enough so idk
too slow

TTGL is not something you could turn into a movie, I think
 
I haven't even watched the second season T_T
@Hakase TTGL?
 
me neither
TENGEN TOPPA GURREN LAGANN
 
4:49 AM
guren
lagan
 
@Hakase There were 2 movies which are recap of the series
 
TTGL series wasn't perfect but the last couple episodes are just wow
 
The ending in the movies is slightly different
 
also I wonder if they're gonna make more madoka movies or if it's completely over
 
You might want to check it out
 
4:50 AM
huh
I might
 
@nhahtdh so the one that have different ending is the second I suppose?
I always dropped a recap movie
unless I didn't wacth the series
 
@EarlGrey Yup
The (real life) events are quite fun to watch if you know Japanese, but it's probably quite hard to find them on the net now...
 
which events
 
There are events before and after first movie screening
Live dubbing
 
hahha, I usually watch those if I like the series even though I don't understand japanese
 
4:58 AM
huh
idk how I feel about those
I don't like drama cds in general too
I'm just interested more in the worldbuilding and the cool story, not the "filler material"
 
I often find myself listening to drama CD and still enjoyed it without knowing any thing they said
