3:00 PM
probably different though...
 
HAMMERZEIT!
 
ggg
haha... no different in germany... but you have to teach in german
and sometimes both is well... rudimentary
@ton.yeung i know exactley what you are talking about
 
@Martin-マーチン also it's been said that the flights were very noisy, there was a lot of vibration, you could hear the engine much more than you do nowadays, so drinking actually was a nice way of calming the nerves
 
@ton.yeung I think it's the same in most universities
 
Flight or no flight, drinking is a great way of calming anything
 
3:04 PM
@ton.yeung tragic :'(
 
@ton.yeung maybe the ones that charge a stupid amount of money to attend mightn't
 
if you get a full scholarship, you might get away with doing research only
 
@ton.yeung lol
 
if you are at a uni though, you kind of always have to do research, there is no way you would only do the teaching part
@ton.yeung what do you mean by that?
 
@ton.yeung don't present it as a work, present is as voluntering
havn't you learned anything from classroom crisis?
 
3:07 PM
education should be state funded... it's the only way to ensure that it is not biased
 
@ton.yeung dpends on what part is work and what part is volunterring
 
@ton.yeung In most of europe this is the reality
 
silly american
consult an attorney about the proper terms to use beforehand
 
it seems like it .-.
 
@ton.yeung what do you mean by darwinism? like darwinian evolution?
 
3:11 PM
Darwinism is a theory of biological evolution developed by Charles Robert Darwin and others, stating that all species of organisms arise and develop through the natural selection of small, inherited variations that increase the individual's ability to compete, survive, and reproduce. Also called Darwinian theory, it originally included the broad concepts of transmutation of species or of evolution which gained general scientific acceptance after Charles Darwin published On the Origin of Species in 1859, including concepts which predated Darwin's theories, but subsequently referred to specif...
 
that's the US though, america isn't the entire world
 
@ToshinouKyouko Says you.
 
@Yuuki I'm not american
 
@ToshinouKyouko Not yet.
 
@ton.yeung non government organizations?
 
3:12 PM
@Yuuki I will defend my non-americanness til i die
 
@Yuuki are you going to forcibly naturalize him?
 
@ToshinouKyouko After which, we shall make you American.
 
@ton.yeung to the ire of many
 
@Yuuki :(
 
haha... the worst thing about being white in jp is that everybody assumes you are an american
 
3:14 PM
@ton.yeung No, imperialism is where we take their land. No right-thinking imperialist bothers with naturalizing the former citizens.
 
@Martin-マーチン it really is
 
even the other foreigners...
 
@Martin-マーチン I was in hiroshima and there were people taking photos of me because they thought I was an american
it really ticked me off
 
@ton.yeung elephants are the majority
 
3:15 PM
i was in the newspaper because i am white
 
@Martin-マーチン I got interviewed for a tourism program
 
@ton.yeung america janai desu ;)
 
and they were like 'why did you come to japan'
and i couldn't think of anything
so i said the maid cafés
and then i was like 'oh no what do they think of me now'
 
they think you are a tourist
 
@ToshinouKyouko Should've been more prescient and mentioned the tomato cafes.
 
3:17 PM
@Yuuki lol
 
there are tv shows... if you would have said something interesting to them, they mkight have want to accompany you and film you how you like stuf and so on
 
"I came here to inspect tomato quality for my world domination HQ"
 
@ton.yeung that is a bad bad word -.-
but yes
gaijin is short for gaikokujin, so its impolite at least and in a japanese way, that is rude
 
hmm, yeah, that does not sound to nice either
 
3:26 PM
Mandarin for "that", as opposed to "this" which is zheige or zhege. "Which" is "neige" with 3rd tone instead of 4th but is much less frequent used
 
wow, I have no idea what you are talking about lol... some chinese here were trying to teach me a few words and they said, my pronunciation sux so i should totally not speak it lol
 
@Martin-マーチン they such at teaching
 
@Martin-マーチン ガソリン usually confuses first time learners
@ton.yeung bring snax
@ton.yeung u fool
 
@ʇosɥıuonʞʎonʞo Ganrison?
 
3:32 PM
@Martin-マーチン gasoline
 
@ton.yeung I'm always hungry
especially right now
please feed me
 
@ToshinouKyouko 🍅
@ton.yeung too little detail to be answered
 
nom nom nom
@ton.yeung please add additional details for your question to be reopened
 
3:44 PM
I need to hit the pillows... have a great day/night and see you soon, it was nice talking to you :D
 
@Martin-マーチン 🍅/ come again
@ton.yeung wut was it
 
@ʇosɥıuonʞʎonʞo This would be great if her English was actually good. But with bad English and bad Japanese, it just sounds like she's an alien.
In other news, I will forever refer to Kore wa Zombie desu ka as "Korean War zombie desk car".
I've seen it, someone just made a joke in the comments of that video.
 
@Yuuki that's because she actually his one
@Yuuki a scandal is just like a candle
 
4:01 PM
@Yuuki oh no now i will do it too
 
4:20 PM
@Taisho I love Haruka x Chihaya pairing
 
4:40 PM
just remembered that my parents' car has bluetooth and can do hands free thing with a phone
turned out you can press a button to accept a call, but there's no button for hanging up
only if you go into the menu and it takes about 6 presses of different buttons instead of just 1 near the wheel's quick access buttons
 
that's messed up :o

Q: What is the small block at the bottom at the end of some manga?

chinese cartoon criticWhat do they call this bar? Is there official terminology for it? Sometimes they add filler text to explain the predicament the heroes are in inside of it or surrounding it.

@ton.yeung peugeot
 
For the article about the bicycle manufacturer, see Cycles Peugeot. Peugeot (US /puːˈʒoʊ/; UK /ˈpɜrʒoʊ/; French pronunciation: ​[pøʒo]) is a French cars brand, part of PSA Peugeot Citroën. The family business that preceded the current Peugeot company was founded in 1810, and manufactured coffee mills and bicycles. On 20 November 1858, Emile Peugeot applied for the lion trademark. Armand Peugeot built the company's first car, an unreliable steam tricycle, in collaboration with Leon Serpollet in 1889; this was followed in 1890 by an internal combustion car with a Panhard-Daimler engine. Due to family...

Q: I want to know the name of an anime about a boy visiting his girlfriend on a class trip

Cronly GodIn the anime he visits his girlfriend during a class trip and he is stuck with a girl he was in love with and has to pretend he is her boyfriend in front of her friend.

 
6:43 PM
...ugh
 
7:35 PM
@Sakamoto how the hell did this receive upvotes.
 
7:49 PM
what the christ
there's two tosh
We need Yui Funami to crush all the tomatoes
 
... Why is this where the charge port on the Apple Mouse is?
Dumbest f--king I've seen in a long time.
 
@Frosteeze in the real tosh don't believe them

Q: Anime whit a group of kids going on school trip

Andreiwell they more highschoolers i think and nor sure if they end up going on a trip or by mystake in the woods but then there's this funny scene where a bear attacks them one play's dead and the bear drags him the bushess and has fun whit him. IF ANYONE CAN REMEMBER THE NAME PLSS TELL ME! THANK YOU

 
8:33 PM
I want to suggest barring unregistered users from asking id-reqs
 
yeah, "why don't you google it yourself, baka!"
 
@Frosteeze three
the ura-tomato does not crush, it crushes you
@ton.yeung I would say blacklisting the tag for unregistered users, they'll get a warning saying that they'll need to register and read the guidelines before asking them
 
@ʇosɥıuonʞʎonʞo she squashed a tomato once
 
@Frosteeze I think the tomato secretly liked it
 
8:55 PM
@ʇosɥıuonʞʎonʞo they don't always use that tag because you know why and they could ask with a different tag if they saw the warning, and we already discussed this many times before that you can't prevent users from posting anything, there's just no fool-proof way to do it
 
@Hakase we can't prevent, but we can discourage
so they use another tag, we'll just tell them we warned them and remove them
 
@ʇosɥıuonʞʎonʞo we're already discouraging them by labeling the question "not detailed enough for ID request" and banning it from receiving any answers until they improve it
simultaneously that message provides enough helping information in its links on how to improve
(or it should be doing so)
 
@Hakase fine fine I felt that actually impeding them will get them to register so we have less id reqs from accounts with expired session cookies

A: How to Convince Humans to Allow a Machine Take-Over

GiliusMaximus"How to convince humans to allow a machine take over?" - the answer is, of course, "Gradually." Start with putting one machine into every home, say an AI that is so dumb that it is not really an AI, but just a computational device. Then start adding other similar machines, maybe some that will ...

@ʇosɥıuonʞʎonʞo they're hit-and-runners for the most part anyways, so don't bother
I think at the end of the year we should reevaluate the community's stance towards ID requests and see if the justice league is still in favor of "introducing new users to anime via ID requests"
 
well I blame Romania for today's bad id reqs
 
9:07 PM
what about the rest of the time before today?
 
@Hakase that's rude, no wonder eric left
 
@Frosteeze ;_;
 
did he?
when?
 
when he stopped showing up lol
 
9:12 PM
but yes he left chatroom, but still active in the SE itself
im sad to say but, with certain topics like request tags, it can get toxic because of certain people whom I'm not inclined to name
so stop that
 
stop what?
tomato juice?
shaming people for posting lame puns?
for doge?
 
all of the above
 
[we need to talk-ing intensifies]
is there something negative going on here that I'm not aware of?
Eric was last seen 29 days ago in chat, so I suppose he just got too busy with work or studying to use chat regularly and it's completely understandable
you know, I'm not the type to sit out while other people's problems keep festering so I for one am in favor of a group counseling session

noooooooooOOOOOOooooooOOooOoOOo00000oooooo~~
 
9:20 PM
huh I must have missed that
so anyway, if anyone has a problem with me personally, please let me know coz I'm not thinking anyone should be (honest to god I'm not that perceptive, you gotta tell me or I will never know)
 
@Hakase I can't every have a problem with vlad
I blame @Frosteeze
@ToshinouKyouko The time of tomato draws to a end
we can tomato another day
 
like when we get conspiracy gifts
 
9:41 PM
@Hakase Calling people who disagree with you names like "Justice League"
and don't worry, it's not just you

A tomato reference about @ToshinouKyouko
7 hours ago, by Toshino Kyouko
@ʇosɥıuonʞʎonʞo I dislike tomate juice ._.
 
@Frosteeze sorry if it offended you, I didn't mean to mock any of the people who were strongly in favor of keeping ID requests, but I just don't believe it's working towards the goal of increasing the overall happiness on this site, including among said users, who in my opinion might be exhausting themselves and not feeling enough positive feedback from their own efforts
I don't really know if that's the case, so that's why I suggested a re-evaluation
 
@Frosteeze Yeah. They're clearly the Guardians of the Galaxy.
Get it right, @Hakase.
 
9:47 PM
(madly trying to find common features between GotG chars and chat users)
 
@Hakase it's fine, I'll admit that I'm a bit sensitive on this matter
 
no-no it's fine because this is a sensitive issue
people expend their effort and expect to see some return, this is human nature and nobody can talk against that on a site about cooperation and entertainment
because of that very thing I was and am still worried that the users who contribute the most could "harm themselves in their confusion" by trying to make the impossible with ID requests and stop doing anything at all as a result
 
@Frosteeze talking about it help
you should blame someone like me for it so I do something about it
@Hakase I wanna know who's Rocket
 
@ʇosɥıuonʞʎonʞo Well, I'm Chinese so there's points in my favor since he's a trash panda.
 
saw em at the zoo recently, very cute
 
10:01 PM
@Yuuki raccoons are smart and insightful creatures
 
@ʇosɥıuonʞʎonʞo They are also trash pandas. I think it's a cute nickname.
 
Rare case where the real world location is more vibrant than the same anime location
Gochuumon; Colmar, France
 
@ʇosɥıuonʞʎonʞo i just remember how adamant senshin was about id-requests and how he even threatened to spam the site if he didnt get his way. I don't want that kind of crap to happen ever again. That's all.
Aug 21 at 4:36, by senshin
I have half a mind to go through all my doujins, extract an sfw page from each of them, and post them as id-requests. Because I guess that's what we want here now.
that's really unacceptable
even if it did happened a long time ago
 
2 months is not a "long time ago".
 
10:08 PM
@Frosteeze end of august isn't all that long ago, like a month and a half
 
@Frosteeze words and actions mean different things. he's free to express his frustration however he pleases, but he know better than to act on those disruptive intentions

Q: Why didn't the experimentation for the 13-day rule push through?

BCLCIn the episode where L dies, he mentions about wanting to test the 13-day rule. If the 13-day rule is disproven, Light and Misa become suspects again. L dies and then apparently everyone seems to have forgotten about the test. What happened? I seem to recall most of the task force disagreed with ...

 
ya it's not like he was gonna do it, just a fair illustration of how things are (and I'm inclined to agree they never turned good enough in my opinion)
 
it's better to take it all out and laying it out then keeping it all in
 
exactly
 
10:16 PM
@Frosteeze I'm here to prevent crap from turning into shit
 
@ʇosɥıuonʞʎonʞo it's still a threat and it's still unacceptable
a threat is still a threat whether someone intends to act on it or not
 
@Frosteeze I wanna threaten DW, but they already get enough of them
 
or are you people going to really allow that
I mean, this is compounded by the fact that this is a mod making such statements and being confrontational to everyone who disagrees with them.
 
@Martin-マーチン it's on Nico I believe: nicovideo.jp/watch/1437627005
@Frosteeze yeah that's bad
I can only blame myself for that

Q: Questions about nationalities and languages in Death Note

BCLCIn the Death Note 2015 series, some people speak English sometimes. For instance when Raye Penber and Bell talk and when Lind L Tailor comes out on tv, it's in English. The Death Note anime of course acknowledges the existence of the English language, like in the first episode, when people with ...

Q: Why didn't L check for fingerprints or hair?

BCLCRelated to this: Death note handwriting check A lot of DNA must have rubbed off on the Death Notes. Unless the Death Note has a rule about fingerprints or DNA, I don't see how this isn't a plothole.

 
@Sakamoto this person is coming on strong with these death note questions
2 hours ago, by ʇosɥıuon ʞʎonʞo
so they use another tag, we'll just tell them we warned them and remove them
 
@ʇosɥıuonʞʎonʞo yeh, wonder what the spark was
 
@ton.yeung it won't which is why I gave up on it
@ton.yeung should be reflected on the user style imo
unregistered user names in italics
@ton.yeung former
 
10:50 PM
slightly greyed out name color could also work
it doesn't really matter because you can see from a user's reputation if they're "worthy" or not
(it shouldn't be like this but it is)
 
@ton.yeung i'm quite sure it still says if they are "unregistered" in their profile
@ton.yeung yeh good point

Q: Was Misa accessible to Light in the way that this proposition assumes?

BCLCThere's this video that proposes how Light could have beaten Near. A critical element of the proposition is that Misa is accessible to Light, but was she? I seem to recall Misa was in the custody of the SPK up until some time just before Light et al are about to leave

 
11:11 PM
very often these days I think how I can't hear my own thoughts because of the info noise I keep submerging myself into
 
@ton.yeung oh... but it already was dropped by different teams before, so maybe another one would pick it up
or we'll just have to learn Korean
@ton.yeung yeah
somehow I think that Korean is easier
 
11:52 PM
@ton.yeung the june bridal ball?
