TIL that such tag exists - Gainax bounce
 
> A term that has come to describe often exaggerated, very jiggly, fluid, and painstakingly detailed animation of female characters' bouncing breasts.
huh, and here i thought that they belonged to Team Ninja's Jiggle Physics
 
Speaking of Gainax, Gunbuster was a very good anime.

Q: At the start of 6th Spice and Wolf light novel, what's up with the discrepancy between “like” and “love”?

ViziionaryNote: I realize this isn't technically about an Anime / Manga, but it's a weird scenario where an Anime is based on a Light Novel rather than a manga, and asking on Literature.SE is unlikely to get me an answer, with anime being a niche genre, and S&W being a niche series within the anime genre. ...

yay! i got flagged

Q: Help me find out what Manga this is, please

Hiroshi Coyote I think this is some sort of Gender Bender manga (Not sure though), and I am looking to see if anyone knows the name of the Manga series as I cannot find anything on it? I have tried the reverse image websites and have come up with nothing as a result, so please help me! :)

 
2:06 AM
@Memor-X huh? here?
 
@Abyx lol, no, in another room where i posted not to flag stuff just because you disagree with the poster's opinion
 
 
2 hours later…
4:57 AM
god dam sports getting in the way of broadcasting real sports like VS Arashi
if i'm going to see a bunch of people kick a ball, i want to see a bunch of people kick a ball at pyramids of giant cans as said pyramids move along a stage
 
this is one of the time when I have to come to work to take a pictures of people I don't know on Sunday
at least I got a free lunch
 
5:17 AM
@EarlGrey why?
 
 
1 hour later…
6:30 AM
Mornings
 
@SaitamaSama evenings
 
6:42 AM
So.. how are we doing today
 
@SaitamaSama good. got a working DS Emulator so that;s my DS Games safe once i can get ROM versions of them. started watching Dennou Coil and it's ok so far
@ton.yeung Dennou Coil? how do you mean?
@ton.yeung huh, didn't think it was that old
but i think other works were experimenting with the idea back then too, like the Megaman Series with the anime having those arcs with the Darkloids and Nebula and Megaman Star Force with the EM World
 
1440p is a strange resolution it shouldn't have existed
4K?
 
6:57 AM
@ton.yeung how is that not tall enough?
 
you can just scale it down to something like 125% or 150%
 
:B
@ton.yeung use jetbrains IDEs
:P
they're pretty nifty tho
I've been using PHPStorm / PyCharm / WebStorm since like the beginning of time, and never once have I been disappointed
I still find Visual Studio pretty hardcore, and still haven't got myself accustomed with all the things it has
it's hard time using VS for me :P
y tho? php iz such nice :B
yeah, I've learning a little bit of C# and .NET these days, and yeah things seem indeed more organized than PHP
but, I've got this affection towards php... I just like it :P
@ton.yeung azure?
yeah, but from what I've seen there's this ecosystem of .net + visual studio + azure which is very symbiotic
I see
that's so true :B installing VS is a nightmare and a half
ubuntu desktop (unity-desktop) over which OS?
oh right
 
7:14 AM

mm, seems like it has a pretty nice conf
why not just build a PC tho?
:P
indeed :B
also, I found these 64 gig modules newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA6ZP6HA9393 8x64GB memory would be nice
that thunderbolt thingy?
yeah
it seems, I've got do some assignments now :B later o/
can't really have fun with these daunting maths thingies
oh god I hate maths so much
I like calculus, trig and stuff
but algebra... ARGH

Q: What is the title of anime with a lead character that has white long-haired spirit man with him?

Addy AceeMy classmate and I talked about the old animes that we've been watched and we're reminiscing the anime about a character that has white haired man spirit. We forgot the tile and the name of the lead character though.

 
@SaitamaSama None of the desktop boards will take those sticks.
Or actually some of the Gigabyte ones will, but only in old BIOS versions. They took it out of the newer ones.
 
7:46 AM
@Mysticial huh, why?
512gigs of memory would have been .. um... fulfilling
 
The desktop boards never really supported them in the first place. I assume Gigabyte managed to hack it to work. They then took it out when they applied the microcode updates.
 
:'(
 
There are no desktop sticks larger than 16GB. All the larger ones are server ones with ECC.
So they found a way to hack the server DIMMs to work in the desktop slots.
 
so, to run them you'd need server mobos?
 
yes
But do you really need more than 128GB?
 
7:49 AM
nah, I was wandering around, and found those 64gig/module ones, and then having the thought of 512GB of memory sounded pretty cool to me :P

@Taisho what

that's sinon and our lord and savior kirito
 
I have two systems with 128GB (8 x 16GB). I have 2 or 3 (non-synthetic) workloads that exceed 64GB. And only one that would exceed 128GB. And that one is easily worked-around at a slight inconvenience.
 
yeah, I guess, for desktop PCs 128GB is quite enough
well, 128GB was the sizes of some HDDs probably a decade ago :P
 
7:52 AM
If 256GB was a thing and didn't cost an arm and a leg, I'd do it.
 
do server boards come in a standard shape like ATX?
probably not
 
I believe so.
The single-socket ones.
 
oh, I see... most of the server mobos I've seen are dual socket ones; there fore the confusion

7:55 AM
so 16 x 64GB memory... so... 1TB of memory
 
Gao
@Memor-X not me, i rarely play games
 
Gao
8:11 AM
@Taisho that's dogmatism. unit testing is limited in what it can do. the most important thing is just to become good at programming.
 
1. Increase test coverage
2. ???
3. Profit
:P
 
8:35 AM
@Gao huh, i swore i remember someone where was playing Neptunia Re;Birth and was 100%ing it and @Dimitrimx also said it's not him
@Gao i would be interested in playing this
as in Touhou with a character who is similar to Cloud with a Watermelon and Icecream Stick Swords
 
9:28 AM
@ton would you say <100% unit test coverage but extensive system/integration tests is also fine?
3 billboard movie was alright, ladybird and call me by your name eh
Epic games royally dropped the ball on their battle royale this week. Hope they pick it up in the next two or they're gonna lose a lot of their player base
 
9:44 AM
@Taisho what do you mean? what did Epic do?

Q: Did Eichiro Oda the first mangaka that make a side-story of certain character in his cover chapter?

GagantousI would like to know if there mangaka other than eichiro oda who make a ilustration cover of specific chapter to be like a side-story, and it's really like a canon chapter for example this one: CP9 Side story Buggy's After battle Is this really common in manga industry ? If yes, is there othe...

 
@ton.yeung yeah, I also liked aldnoah zero
@ton.yeung that's one good list
 
@Abyx whaaaaaaaaaaat
have you watched the second season of it?
 
@SaitamaSama yep
 
and you still liked it?
 
sure
 
11:46 AM
:ascii-shrug:
 
really, what did you dislike in it?
 
characters were introduced just for the sake of filling in certain archetypes
the princess married that count out of the blue when everybody thought that she would do something with Inaho
 
@SaitamaSama ugh, but franxx...
 
Inaho got ridiculously overpowered
@Abyx umm.... please continue .... /me brings out the knife
 
@SaitamaSama yeah but she's royalty, it's kinda expected trope
 
11:48 AM
The animation sucked at certain times the 3d ones, especially
 
yeah, but most of the time the animation was quite impressive
those are some minor things anyways
 
The character art degraded like a titanic in S2 compared to S1
anyways... the plot was too linear and stuff as well, but everyone has their own taste I guess.. :/
the s2 is currently sitting at #3 from the bottom in my list
oh, I already did a rant about it here earlier
2 days ago, by SaitamaSama
not only do I not get my ship, the characters are dumb, have no personality
 
ok...
 
12:03 PM
but yeah, everyone has their own taste... :D

Greetings from a neighbouring site! I bring you tidings of a question which some of you folks might be well placed to answer:
1
Q: At the start of 6th Spice and Wolf light novel, what's up with the discrepancy between "like" and "love"?

ViziionaryNote: I'd like to request no spoilers beyond the start of the 6th novel. At the very end of the 4th S&W novel, Lawrence says "I like you". Love is never once used by Lawrence toward Holo so far in the story. I even ran the search function to check the PDF, I'm certain. Yet, in the next b...

 
@Randal'Thor hello neighbor. yeh saw that because....

is suspect that the answer in this case is either going to be a translation error or it's going to be a quirk in Japanese
now i may be wrong but the japanese for "i like you" is 好きだよ (suki da yo) however in certain situations the like can become love, particular when one is in a relationship or not
like i said, could be wrong. could be very wrong because of my noobishness in japanese
 
12:50 PM
@Memor-X every time there's some event happening they usually ask me to take some pictures. I don't really mind actually, just, why on Sunday :(
 
@EarlGrey and why you? are you like the guy with the best camera on their phone?
 
I have Canon...
 
you have a canon?
do you use it to blow people up?
 
Why yes, don't you know I'm a former tank commander?
 
oh, I totally forgot about that. my bad
 
12:54 PM
But something funny happen tho, some random people ask to take picture with me, not sure why
 
because you are a nice guy?
 
@Memor-X Ah, so maybe we need a fluent Japanese speaker to answer this well ...
 
@Randal'Thor yeh that's what i suspect. we do have a few here on the site
 
Well, just a normal nice person actually, not really nice and everything. I just went around and take some pictures like normal and then that happen
it's kinda embarrassing, I thought they want me to take their picture, so I came, prepared my camera only to find they want to take picture with me
I'm not good with that kind of situation
 
@Memor-X nhahtdh or.... AndrewT. probably
 
1:00 PM
@Memor-X could use , perhaps?
 
@SaitamaSama was also thinking Krazer and i think Eri as well
@EarlGrey yeh
edited
 
@Memor-X do you have the script that you use to scrape manga from dynasty scans?
 
@SaitamaSama i do yes
 
could you plox share? :D
 
@SaitamaSama i can try. the 5 downloads per day getting to you huh?
 
1:04 PM
nah, I'm going to be away from home for a while, and the place I'll be going doesn't have nice LTE coverage
 
@SaitamaSama LTE?
 
4G-LTE?
 
@SaitamaSama oh. are you looking to download from your phone or PC?
because my script will only work on PC
 
no, I'll be downloading the manga's on my pc
transfer them to my pc
and when I get there, I'll indulge into the yuri-goodness
I've got some mangas on my mind, so would probably download those first
 
@SaitamaSama ok. well i'll put together the files tomorrow. currently i think all you'll need is Java and Chrome. the rest should be sound contained in the files i have
 
1:07 PM
also, ch36 of citrus is out now dynasty-scans.com/chapters/citrus_ch36 @Gallifreyan
@Memor-X thank you so much <3
 
@SaitamaSama yeh saw that today when i went to start up the script to download the images
 
:B I won't read it now. Need to resist the urge
 
1:24 PM
@Taisho She shouldn't be smiling so lively and cheerfully in this scene.
 
@nhahtdh we need your japanese powers
 
@SaitamaSama Sure, so what do you need translating?

as said by Memor-X already, it seems like a language quirk to me as well
 
Time to pirate
 
1:29 PM
 
also yeah, too much smiling doesn't suit Hitagi at all
I love her sadistic nature :P
 
@SaitamaSama You mean sadistic?
 
yes
I'm sorry
:P oh god, I'm a baka desu
 
Nah, nothing to say sorry about
 
1:32 PM
 
Lol, I happen to have Spice and Wolf raw on my drive
 
enjoy 8k shinobu to your heart's content
nice
 
@EarlGrey Yes, that expression makes me shiver
 
In a good way
 
1:33 PM
always
 
can't forget this classic one
best girl poll:
1. Senjougahara
2. Tsubasa
3. Shinobu
4. Nadeko
5. Kanbaru
 
lol Hanazawa?
 
for me, I'd vote for Senjougahara first, and after her, Nadeko.... probably

girls are meant to be loved equally
 
no, best girls should receive extra affection
just like how Hitagi does <3
or, Rem
or, Mayushii
 
Anyone here read Spice and Wolf LN?
 
not me
 
not me
 
I don't, and I have a hard time locating the text
 
1:40 PM
not me
 
Oh, well
Guess I will have to sail my ship again, then
 
ship, who are the two participants?
 
I'm going to sink some ship and loot their treasure, wanna come?
 
no... I thought ship as in relationship between a couple in the 2d animu world
I am disappoint
i love that part where she sings without the mic
 
2:10 PM
FML, BSOD when I'm drafting my answer
SynTP.sys again. I can't find a fix for this crappy of a driver
 
@nhahtdh :(
 
2:38 PM
@Memor-X @EarlGrey Yes that's a Popsicle stick and a watermelon . Being an ice fairy of the lake, that can control coldness, Cirno is sometimes associated with and used as a source of summer heat relief by fans, which probably has something to do with why she was chosen to represent the player character representative of summer in Hidden Star in Four Seasons.
I think we've all seen anime with chilled watermelon slices on Popsicle sticks, or if not at least a beach episode where the characters are trying to smash a watermelon open with a stick on the beach.

Btw, Touhou is released on Steam, so go there and grab your game if you are a fan
 
2:59 PM
@nhahtdh I am, but I'd rather buy the physical media from jbox. I think it's better for the archaeological record to have legally distributable copies decentralized from the rights holders. XP
 
you on the same side as @Memor-X huh? :P
 
@Tonepoet There is the option of storing TB of pirated stuffs on hard drive, which has very small footprint on small scale, but becomes a pain to maintain at large scale
And the option of spending tons of money on legit merchandise, which takes up a large space in your room, and not very convenient when you need to move around
And the third option of buying license for the game and media and not care about storage, but with the risk of all of them disappear over night when the provider collapse
I'm currently on the third option for games, since it's extremely convenient when I relocate
I'm still stuck with option 1 for anime, since there is no end once you start collecting physical merchandise.
 
I don't find the first or last options to be acceptable ones. The first one compromises the law, and the ethics which serve as the basis for the law. The last one is an anthropological disaster. That isn't to say that expensiveness is good, but I think it's the fairest option to all parties involved.
 
For LN, I'm somewhere between option 1 and 2
@Tonepoet Well, it's up to one's financial situation
For physical merchandise, paper-based stuffs last the longest. But optical media may become unreadable in 10-20 years
Regardless, it's better than first option in terms of longevity, unless you put in serious bucks to top that.
 
@Tonepoet I wasn't aware of pressed CD. Learn something new today

Q: I'm searching for the title of an old series about a random girl living in a creepy mansion with the weirdest family

user96685I can't remember it quite clearly, but the girl kinda got lost in the forest, or something like that. Somehow she ended in a rather creepy mansion with a very strange fantasy-like family. One of the members of said family was a very disturbing woman inside a tree, and you could only see her face ...
