@LoganM oh yeh i posted that on The Bridge
to be honest assuming the devs of Mutiny cut out the H Scenes which i know they would have, the only thing Valve has to complain about with it is maybe some breasts and a Futa Pirate with a bulge in her shorts. far more tame than what you see in The Witcher
the difference? art style and that the devs for The Witcher have more money
 
people seem to get angry that big western AAA studios get away with sexual content at a level that would get any VN banned, but for me that isn't a big complaint tbh
 
@LoganM well why not? is shows a double standard coupled with how vague the ToS is reported to be in regards to sexual content but details when it comes to hate content
 
For me the bigger complaint with steam as a platform is that extreme graphic violence is somehow completely fine, but literally any nudity is enough to cause worry
Most people are naked every day, and most people never shoot anyone, but somehow games which show naked people are abnormal and games which let you shoot people are fine.
 
@LoganM oh yeh that is a good point
 
of course, there's also the issue of the double standard, but honestly everyone is a hypocrite so it doesn't bother me that much
Anyway steam never seemed like a great platform for VNs in the first place. You have no need for online play, updates/patches are rare, and there's no way to sell physical merchandise (which tends to be a big part in Japan).
If those were the only issues it would still be workable, but if they're going to take down or censor stuff based on poorly specified guidelines, it just isn't worth it
 
12:53 AM
@LoganM more so that Valve does no curation since their attempt at it was taken down
 
In the first place, if you just wait a few years for the prices to drop it's usually cheaper to import it anyway, and it tends to take at least that long for most good VNs to show up on steam (not the made-for-steam kind which are honestly pretty bad)
that requires knowing Japanese I guess though
 
@LoganM i know, i saw a Visual Novel claiming to be shoujo ai/yuri but was written by someone who's only seen lesbian porn and the stolen background image was from a film where the silhouettes in the background was a guy and girl
i'm guessing that maybe why Valve is going nuclear now is that there's probably been a flood of crap VNs from asset flip bot farmers who just use them to turn Steam into a money printer
 
well they don't seem to care about the way worse stuff on the platform
the average steam game is somewhere between shovelware and completely nonfunctional
 
@LoganM yeh, and that average took over when Greenlight was shut down and you just needed to pay $100. not that Greenlight was much better with the bribing going on
still think that it should have been a greater fee, like $1000 or something
*sees random page of Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha INNOCENT and see 2 girls with a guy with one of them hanging off his arm* what the hell is this! this isn't the Nanoha i kno....oh wait that looks like Genya Nakajima, so then the girls must be Subaru and Ginga whoi must be his real daughters this time
> ah! could you three be Subaru-chan's father and sisters
wait, sisters? the younger one isn't Subaru?
 
1:15 AM
I should get back into nanoha, but I haven't been up to date since like 2014 and I don't remember where I was at all and I don't even know where to start with the new stuff
 
@LoganM INNOCENT is new continuity, magic card games this time. the Third and upcoming 4th movies are supposed to be in the Movie continuity but so far could fit perfectly in the main one
 
I really just wish I had way more free time. I've been really bad about finishing stuff recently.
I probably have somewhere around 50 shows that I've watched most of but didn't finish and forgot about them

Q: Fairy tail is Igneel really dead

McMatthewPeFairy tail is a great anime and Manga but I need to know is Igneel dead? He's been missing for 7 years so I'm guessing he's dead but I don't know!

Ah shit. Saber Lily does not fit in the case.
 
5:31 AM
@Mysticial you need a bigger case
or maybe a Figma so you can pose her
 
@Memor-X No, it's the stupid water cooling tubes.
I'll post a picture in a bit.
Reimu won't fit either.
I was hoping to get a big figurine to put in the middle instead of two smaller ones. But I totally forgot about the fucking water tubes.
Saber Lily is physically too long because of the sword. It can be rotated into a way that fits, but not in a desirable orientation. The tubes gets in the way in both cases as they hit her massive dress.
For Reium, the only orientation she will fit is if the staff goes behind the tubes. But that puts her in an undesirable orientation.
 
5:53 AM
@Mysticial could Reimu fit in there if you put the hose in the back there though the space between her arm/stick and the shide strip
 
The other two are small ones which were really meant for my display cabinet. But I they are available to put in a computer case if necessary.
@Memor-X I thought about it. And sure enough, it does fit. Just barely. About 2mm clearance between her and ram. And no extra clearance in the front and the glass side panel.
But it looks awkward.

Looks like Reimu's activating some spell cards
 
Another option is to keep Kuroneko on the left and get the Kirino pair on the right. (they're a matching pair) But the video card isn't long enough. So unless the right-side figurine is really small or is a very large base, it will fall off the end and lean into the fans.
I also can't bend the tubes out of the way since they are very stiff. You also don't want to put any unnatural pressure on them since it increases the risk of a leak.
Fuck, this is a hard problem...
 
6:25 AM
@Mysticial i was more thinking in the original image having her replace who was already in there and have Reimu point at the fan
the shide strip would then be on the inside of the hose there
 
@Memor-X I tried that, the'd be looking completely sideways so it's hard to see her face.
There's two tubes there, one in front, one in back. Though I could try to thread her staff in between the tubes.
The color doesn't quite work out either. Red doesn't seem to go well with rainbow color cycle in the background.
 
6:41 AM
lol, Saber Lily fits if I put her in there backwards on the left side. Her dress just barely clears the left fan and the tubes. The sword in her right hand goes in front of the tubes.
But that's just stupid.
 
what about the white haired girl in the left and the kimono girl on the right
 
7:01 AM
Emilia looks only ok at all:
 
are you planning to just keep them in the case?
 
Color isn't great under the background lighting.
@Frosteeze Yeah. I've had one in my other rig since the day I built it. It fits perfectly there. But this case is much harder.
 
gonna be so hot in there~
 
It'll be quite difficult to actually make this rig look as good as my other one. The other one has the video card in the natural slot and it literally has a standing platform in front to place a figurine.
@Frosteeze Even in the worst conditions, it never gets above 50C inside.
The worst I've seen is 45C. Hot summer day with the computer running full blast sustained for a long time.
But I do need to be careful to make sure the figurine doesn't touch the ram or any of the various heatsinks on the motherboard.
Those can get very hot. (> 60C)

@ton.yeung lol how did it get hacked
or did that happen after I posted the link here :o
@Mad do you still do js?
 
Yup, I still do
 
I wanna add a button to mal myanimelist.net/topmanga.php page which adds it to my list as dropped and with the tag "animated"
lookin for mal extensions on mozilla addons didn't get my something simple like that :s
if it's not too hard could you make it?
 
@Hakase Hmm, it's a question of how it's usually done there, I haven't used MAL in quite a while
 
it's just sending a post request with the anime's id and the tag string but I'm not sure how to do the post request itself
 
What's the normal flow?
@Hakase POST request can be sent with the fetch API rather simply
 
6:41 PM
I'm a total noob in this and the last time I did a post request was via that weird xmlrequest thingie
from the event code in inspector it seems like I could just copypaste that and substitute the manga id
 
think I could copypaste this somehow? or should I write a complete post request

@Gao you gotta reply to the specific image not just @ him
 
Gao
@Hakase WHAT? oh nvm
 
7:28 PM
@Gao you can what-reply any image from any user and taisho will post id links
actually I'm looking for top mangas which don't have anime
and writing a js script for adding buttons and also an app to get the mal page of each manga and see if the related links are anime and if all the listed anime are not tv series but only movies or ovas…
well, that's not the most efficient way of doing it I guess
but it might be what I end up doing anyway
except for the js script coz then I don't need it anymore

Q: Was Goku bad before coming to the Earth?

NexportMy friends and I have a discussion if Goku was bad or not before coming to the Earth, how can illuminate us?

 
@Hakase In the network tab, you should be able to right click the request and choose "Copy as" "fetch"
Or something like that

Q: Why is there not only samurai era technology and alien technology but contemporary technology in Gintama?

PabloAs far as I understand, in Gitama aliens invaded Edo (Tokyo) in the times of the samurais and defeated them. Then, we not only see samurai era buildings, and weapons, etc. but alien made buildings and weapons and technology. But why is there technology from the current era in it, like cars, tvs, ...

@MadaraUchiha I could only find edit and resend (in firefox) but I decided not to write that script today after all :p
