Those powers already punished you by sticking your consciousness into a mortal painful material body that needs constant attention to avoid extreme suffering, we're inside a hell realm.

But, what else could they do to me?
If this nightmare is the baseline, how much farther could they go in their depravity?
I maintain, this fear lies at the heart of the masses' tendency to maintain their miserable lives.

ALL of us fear the retribution that suicide promises.
Many wizards believe that there is nothing worse, but I think that death is only the beginning.
I believe that there is no pit deep enough to satisfy the sadism of this world.
I believe that whatever force rules this place has an insatiable appetite for our suffering.

Social bonding is about affirming you're on the same side, this means liking and hating the same thing. This causes polarization of opinions to be natural. For example, video game discourse on the internet. When someone like something they gloss over all of its flaws and likewise when they hate something they nitpick everything and downplays strengths. If you go the side that like a game and said that you like x but hate y, you need to be really careful about framing your opinion to make it sound like you're still on their side or they'll attack and try to kick you off. Same for the opposite side. If you persists in an opinion of liking x and hating y, you'll be alienated from the two main sides and are now strictly limited to the tribe that like x and hate y which is going to be a much smaller tribe. Small because you have to find the exact combination of likes and dislikes and reasoning for those preferences, as well as because a lot of people with nuanced beliefs prefer to get absorbed into the bigger main sides. One way that autistic, more scientific minded people likes to do is to champion objectivity which means eliminating all emotional bias. Another is to champion liberalism which means tolerating differing opinions. Both the problem with both of these ideas is that they hinder emotional investment in something so you ended caring less about a subject and the already reduced validation from other people also becomes less rewarding. Not to mention it takes more effort to be objective and accepting diversity means diluting sense of belonging. Therefore they're not good solutions either. Where am I going with this? I don't know just complaining about how sincerity is punished or something.

I think that the ability to learn and in consequence the degree of mastering any subject or skill is directly linked to two main factors that might complement or contradict each other in different constellations: 1. your personal immediate affinity, genuine interest, true subjective conviction of the subject that you have without the need to express it to anyone else. 2. The success, competitive superiority, the amount of positive and accumulated social interactions and connections that the subject enables you to have. These two factors also decide your evaluation of a thing where you need to decide what's more important. Your unaltered honest personal opinion or the chase for social reward. In the best case these two are completely identical, that's when you can convince people the most (like cult leaders actually believing in what they are doing till the point of killing others and one self for it) of your relation to the thing and potentially gain the most reward. In the worst case you absolutely despise something but communicate that you like it, normally this won't go well for a long time because either it will be revealed that you actually hate the thing or it becomes very exhausting and it has a toll on your mental health. I think in most cases there are variant mixing ratios of these two factors.

Lets War Anonymage 08/22/26 (Sat) 08:19:37 No.309973 [Reply]

Wiz, I really hate the way things are these days. You know how "brainrot" and cringe culture affect people now—my friends, my parents, and just daily life in general are all so annoying. The interactions between Gen Z and Boomers are getting weirder, and people in general are becoming stranger, which makes everyday life incredibly frustrating. What if history could repeat itself—like World War II—so that those forgetful Gen Zers and Boomers, and all the annoying people today, could finally realize just how terrifying a world war really is

How to acquire bullshit job? Anonymage 08/07/26 (Fri) 19:29:33 No.229521 [Reply]

I've wasted so many years of my life. And right now I work a shit job that requires way too much work for the low pay. I dont really have an credentials especially for all the jobs in my area that are like 99% senior analyst bullshit that I could probably never lie good enough to get into

I've heard of so many other guys with comfy jobs like night watchman or dudes who somehow keep getting vibecoding gigs from home even if they dont know how to code.

How do you go about this? I'm still a mage in my early 20s. Never got any formal education or anything. As my life is now I could probably rot away years upon years away miserably in the blink of an eye. I already have done nothing for the last decade. I even bought a gun to check out if all hope is lost

Being ragebaited by life. Anonymage 08/10/26 (Mon) 16:14:24 No.309657 [Reply]

I try and try like I really do to be a wizard but unfortunately keep heading into becoming a crab. As someone who can't afford to NEET and will just die on the side of the street if I do so, I have to unfortunately go out into the real world and try to get a job and maintain a "social life".

And that is the worst part about it, I simply don't get it, a friend of mine wanted to meet another friend and he wanted me to go to club with me, now why did I agree? Because I wanted a referral for a job. Apart from that clubs in my country are horrendous for sub-3 men like me because they don't let people like me enter because of "dress code" when in reality you look ugly, short, singly, and the whole nine yards.

I got a referral so that's a good thing if it materialises into a job. But what I saw in club is not something that I have not known but to see it happen it still caught me like a deer in the headlights, basically I knew that this friend of friend is going to be a piece of shit because he is a club-goer.

But when I saw him literally just go up to a bitch and started making out with her continuously then going to the toiled and then coming back, and then actually showing me his Instagram and Snapchat about fucking a succubus 5 times one day, and fucking 10 different succubi in 10 days and sharing nudes on Telegram by starting out with the message "New Pussy around my Dick.".

God bless him for giving me the referral which probably won't materialise into a job but for some reason I wish I never met him, I saw a weird kind of primal expression on the faces of succubi, the man was 6'4 and had a chiseled face. And when I came back home I swear to god, I couldn't drive the car straight. Like I was about to crash 3 times, not because I was driving fast, but I was so pissed and my mind was just thinking about like what the fuck? I had to struggle for every single ounce of thing in life, and there are guys like this who just do what? Fucking exist?

Honestly, at that point years of thinking "I am never going to think about cunts" and months of trying to be a fucking monk only to enter a state of ragebait, I swear to god, when I returned in the night I was awake for a total of 48 hours just raging like a mad man and screaming into the damn mattress. Like what the fuck? How in the blue hell is it so easy for these kind of people? And this guy has cheated on every single cunt who was his GF. And has fucked over 40 succubi litePost too long.

no exercise because of no motivation? you have cause and effect confused.

no motivation because of no exercise. motivation is a nervous system state that unlocks after a certain amount of electricity is available. in times of low electricity (which is the state your body is currently in) there is not enough voltage to create it.

your body generates electricity through muscle activity, your muscles are piezo electric, use them and they will create sparks that supply your body with voltage, thus restoring motivation.

fiction and mental health Anonymage 08/16/26 (Sun) 10:38:09 No.309759 [Reply]

i keep wondering if all fiction could be unhealthy for the brain. human life is so short, a day has so few hours. how can you take one or more of these hours and flee to a place that doesn't exist and disconnect from your own reality.

places that don't exist have begun to repell me. my own reality has so many projects i would like to attend to that i feel gridlocked by not knowing what to do first. desire for fiction might be nothing but pure idleness.

i assume i understand the impulse, though i could be mistaken. when i was a child and were forced to attend child prison (school), the idea of no longer being able to explore the world at my own pace and instead had to spend time with the violent conformist was completely depressing. have them judge my intelligence based on how hard i could force myself to care what they thought was important in their desperate attempt to turn me into a mindless soldier and stomp all my dreams and interests in the process.

i'd flee into video games and at least videogames are interactive. in a video game i can make decisions, in school i was but an inmate without agency. but in a movie about a super hero, there is no interaction, the poor fool who watches this is but the passive recipient of centralized propaganda. i don't see how someone would accept this premise and spend time on this.

normalfags don't work hard so that when they die something magical will happen. They do it because they want a house and a wife and kids and all that shit. This is all driven by basic instinct. Getting that shit makes them feel good. They are just motivated by the feel good juices, same as you are. The act of watching fantasy or fiction simply simulates the experiences of getting those things, but it is just a simulation and therefore a pale imitation. It will never release as many feel good juices as the real thing.

If you're really just trying to experience euphoria, just do drugs. Or better yet get a surgical implant to directly stimulate the reward center of your brain. Then you can die in ecstasy having achieved your goal.

you don't need outside help to feel good as a human, it is built-in. my guess is you were just bullied, shamed, tortured, abused and/or punished every time you were about to empower yourself so you ended up never looking inside.

the moment you 'successfully' meditate and feel that self-generated bliss exists for anyone who is genuinely looking for it, you will understand that technically you can never be rewarded, it is just something you play along politely and never question. the concept of reward can only makes sense within depression.

carrying weight is exactly what a normalfag does.
you spend your whole life carrying the weight of expectations, socializing, learning, tinkering, striving all so you can feel useful to normalfaggots. I have no need for this crap.
your "uphill" climb is just an exhausting loop of unnecessary normalfaggot effort for me.

and all your posts reeks of Normalfag and you think my life is boring because there isn't a hierarchy or respect to chase.

what's the first thing you usually decide when you think up a game?

how'd you make a 2-player game for people who get bored after ~4 minutes so one round has to be shorter then that.

what's the longest game you think people would enjoyably play together because there has to be a number of hours at which it becomes a chore to stay awake even though tiredness sets in.

how'd you make a complicated game that can be played while walking in the woods (so no table, hardly any place to put something like a discard pile unless you wear cute little hard-holding or piece-storing backpacks/fannypacks, potentially only dimly lit)

how'd you approach making an easy game to be played while walking (drunk or high).

My problem with a lot of these "designed" boardgames is that a lot of them are just "chess but the pieces move different". Now I'm not huge into the boardgame design scene, so I'm sure there's some innovation, but that's sort of my impression as a dilettante. Another thing is that there's often times no digital versions of these games which makes trying them out nearly impossible. So, it reduces the game to an intellectual curiosity rather than a proper game you can actually play and invest your time in.

i'm trying to think which widely available program could be use to play them. something like a simple mspaint/kolourpaint might be too crude since there is only one layer of paint so moving pieces would include moving the background the pieces are on as well.

there is a tabletop simulator on steam, this might work, i have been waiting for it for 10 years for it to be cheaper during a sale, no luck so far.

i guess powerpoint/LibreOfficeImpress should work, you could use paint to cut out pieces and paste them into powerpoint, each remaining a individual, clickable, moveable image you can drag around with the mouse

Should I take the Catholic pill?

They seem to genuinely respect Wizards and have a tradition of hermits. Their priests are a celibate ruling class.

I didn't grow up around Christians but it seems like the difference between them and other Christians is that they're the original church together with the lesser known Orthodox Church.

I don't get all the rules they have though. You shall attend Mass on Sundays and holy days of obligation and rest from servile labor. You shall confess your sins at least once a year. You shall receive the sacrament of the Eucharist at least during the Easter season. You shall observe the days of fasting and abstinence established by the Church. You shall help to provide for the needs of the Church, each according to his or her own ability.

I'm overwhelmed. I get why people just go with the DIY protestant approach but it seems like if the Catholics are one of the original churches Jesus said was legit then it's a safer bet.

Look I don't get how there can be a miracle like resurrection either and frankly all the Abrahamic religious miracles seem really underwhelming compared to the wild stories of Hindu gods. But so many people believe in Christianity from a Pascal's wager perspective it seems like I might as well consider it.

At least it'll make me feel like I'm less LARPing some fantasy wizard and instead I'll seem like a faithful religious hermit which gets more respect points

I'm an ex catholic (apostated). Grew up in a catholic family, in a catholic country, etc and it's virtually the root of every single mental problem I have.

Catholicism is the worst religion out there (yeah, worse than Islam IMO). I still don't know how people lived under this retarded and outright evil cult for centuries. It's idealized by crabs and zoomers because le aesthetic™ meme but it's complete retardation (like any other organized religion). Also crabs seem to idealize it because they think they'll find le trad qt gf™ in church. Virtually every self proclaimed catholic succubus I've met in my life, including church going ones were all whores

>They seem to genuinely respect Wizards
They don't. Catholicism is obsessed with making children, to keep the brainwashing going on. Becoming a priest is traditionally expected for big families, when at least one male had kids and as such the bloodline was preserved

>Their priests are a celibate ruling class.
They weren't originally and they aren't either nowadays. Leaving the child abuse aside, priests do usually go with prostitutes and stuff like that, it's well known. They're just larpers and liars looking for government money

>it seems like the difference between them and other Christians is that they're the original church together with the lesser known Orthodox Church.
The Ethiopian and Coptic churches are older than the catholic one

Only hardcore catholics in USA follow those things. Most catholics worldwide don't give a shit and will likely see you as a weird creep for doing so. Living a humanly normal life is impossible if you follow all the rules of the church. A lot of the sacraments have no real biblical basis in fact

I did and went consistently for several years but eventually started having an issue being around people again. trying to get into going back and go to confession and everything.

>I don't get all the rules they have though.
Those things you listed are called the precepts of the Church they were instituted in 1215 as a general trend in centralization that was going on, it was not the case for most of Catholic history where for most of it was highly variable depending on where you were.

The main thrust of Catholicism is that God became man, was Crucified so that we can enter into an eternal life with God, and established a Church to provide sure means of reaching it. As something that is 2000 years old it has built up a ton of stuff around that and not all of it is as inherent to it as it seems, there is a very practical component to it. Things like confession, the eucharist, matrimony and priests are aimed at bringing people to God such that they can enter into that.

>>224788
I grew up secular and as someone foreign to religious stuff it's not exactly clear what they "believe" until you practice it, even then reducing religion to a set of ideas/propositions is a fairly modern novelty. The crucial thing is they are claiming God is incarnate on their altar and they have good means of coming into relation with him all the other theology is stuff on top of that.

>>227870
Confession up until around 800 was in groups and public and in front of everyone. I don't enjoy confession and would even get like physical tremors doing it but afterwords you are in a much better place even just at a psychological level.
However it isn't fundamentally about appealing to your preferences. The point of Christianity is we can enter into a special relationship with God through baptism, and that through sin we can reject that gift. Confession is a way of providing a confident means of repairing that, but it probably doesn't make sense if you don't believe in baptism either. The embarrassment also at a practical level is a good way to dissuade yourself from doing stuff you shouldn't anyway because you won't want to conPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

It's Saturday night and I started taking a new antidepressant called Mirtazapine (15mg) on Thursday night.

This is my 10th or so attempt at a psychiatric medication. I've tried lots of therapy too.

Wish me luck anonymages. I was about to quit my job but watched some motivational videos on autoplay on Youtube for hours and as cheesy as it was, they convinced me to give this a go.

I didn't even get these prescribed recently. It was way back last year and then I just didn't take them because this particular medicine has a reputation for making people really fatigued.

It does put me to sleep. But, maybe that's ok. If it means I can find some happening apart from fapping and dreaming while I sleep.

Maybe it'll even help me turnaround my fortunes at work where it looks like I'm sliding towards a firing or just being unable to come in. Barely stopped myself raging at my boss the other day and took 2 weeks sick leave from stress afterwards. I need to swallow some humble pie come Monday and hopefully these pills help. Being off work for 2 weeks showed me I'm just as miserable and actually more so depressed, anxious and stressed not working despite all the antiwork slogans I collect.

Voluntarily cutting off ties Anonymage 03/20/26 (Fri) 01:04:37 No.306437 [Reply]

Does anyone else voluntarily exile themselves from society?

I'm tired of socializing, drama, human interests, social demands, social everything.

I wish I was a machine instead of a talking ape. I actually hate being an animal.
I don't even hate people, I just don't want to be in any contact with them. I even hate my own body for forcing me to eat and wash in order to not completely dysfunction.

I take satisfaction in not attending the events that everyone expects you to attend. Weddings, work Christmas party, funerals/wakes, any sort of work thing like a cookout (even if it’s during work hours and it’s outside, I just stay at my desk and enjoy the spite), cousin invited me to a wedding and I even RSVP’d and then didn’t go just to maximize my lack of etiquette and attendance. It feels good. I remember I first felt this when my high school had its prom and then graduation. It just felt so good to disrespect these normalcunt milestones by not attending

-white dudes who are lovers aka gays

-overacting
-gay drama

that's the loop and mix it with gay nigger shit and meaningless tropes and subplots and characters

Linux yet again Anonymage 09/04/24 (Wed) 20:01:30 No.68063 [Reply]

I always played around with it in a very disengaged, uncommitted manner. Well, on September 2nd, just a few days ago, I decided to really learn Linux to the point I could truthfully add to my resume to help me find a position somewhere. For that reason, I picked Ubuntu, possibly the most popular, all-purpose Linux distribution out there. I began doing the edx's version of the Linux Foundation's Introduction to Linux course because of the bells and whistles they have there in terms of exercises and whatnot. Unfortunately, they peppered the whole course with unbelievably idiotic mini videos geared towards morons. Imagery of douchebags with designer haircuts typing away at a laptop with some coolcorp background and annoying music.

So I said fuck it, and instead I decided to read the Linux Bible. But then I found out there's an Ubuntu Linux Bible by the same author, and so that's what I'm reading now. Straight to the point, concise, has exercises, not as many as I would like, but I can come up with variations on my own. Today is the third day I'm following the book, and I intend to make a daily post, briefly talking about the stuff I've learned on that day.

The first day was pretty much just going through the fluff. What Linux is, history of Linux, Unix, GNU, what open source is, etc. That's the first 20 pages of the book's 718 pages.

The second day I read about the X Window System, desktop environments, GNOME desktop, Nautilus file manager, and ways to run Linux (live medium, permanent install, etc.). The exercises consist of messing around with the GUI pretty much, something you would naturally do in a fresh install of an OS. I also had to install Ubuntu because I was running Windows. I got lucky because Ubuntu 24.04.1 came with some broken packages for Nvidia drives, and that of course fucked my shit up, which was a very excellent opportunity to do some tinkering and learning. I got it to work, it only took me an hour or so. I read people saying this is the most broken Ubuntu update in years, which I take as a good sign for my timing. And then I broke Light Locker while changing to Xfce as my desktop environment.

Anyway, third day, today, I finally reach the meat of the book and begin messing around with the shell, trying different commands, pretty simple stuff, whoami, pwd, ls, cd, command syntax, hyphenated options for command's behavior, locating commands, and really, just getting comfortable to mess around in the termPost too long.

i am not even 10 years in myself. recently i have been solving most linux problems with brave ai, i wish this existed when i started because i have solved dozens of problems and understood stuff i was curios about since the beginning. having a place to turn to with problems like that is really helpful. if i can help let me know though i would assume most of you newcomers are way better at solving stuff like that with ai then i am. what i might be good at is ergonomics. i can make a linux machine feel good and tailor it because i have bothered to look into all the little options in the sub menus.

currently i am playing with bash scripts to automatically create and move text files so i can juggle them around fast.

another thing that i think is really interesting is that there are these lightweight ULTRA PREMIUM BUSINESS CLASS laptops (like the lenovo thinkpad x1 carbon gen6) available on the used market with minimal configuration (8gb ram, 4 cores) for very low prices. they can't be upgraded for the most part but they are a joy to use if you are frugal. similar hard to upgrade ultralight premium models not for laptops but for convertibles finally exist on the used market (like the lenovo thinkpad x1 yoga gen5) and they have a keyboard that can be folded all the way around so it is behind the screen when you are tired of laptop mode, leaving you with a touchscreen that has a garaged little pen so you get the actual touchscreen ant note taking experience in linux on an actual x64 computer that runs all the regular linux packages which i prefer to ARM processors.

yeah i think you'd be disappointed if you tried to use it in broad daylight/ sunshine. not using dark-theme helps but it is still a little disappointing and draws the user into the shadows.

because i have had it with this shit i am currently assembling a computer that uses an e-ink display as a monitor specifically for when it is very bright outside. i already have all the parts and just struggle with creating some kind of enclosure where everything can go inside.

other then that i really like the yoga and i don't care that the keyboard makes it bulky, i put it in a backpack anyways and it is light enough. it is a touchscreen tablet (even with drawing pen!) where you can get regular linux on, and not this stupid mobile ios/android babbies-first-computer modern consumer interface.

Coolio, my old Linux thread got bumped. Welp, since you guys brought it up I'll update my rig situation. I still have the server running on Debian. It's hosting a few services like Jellyfin, Kavita, Navidrome, Radarr, and a couple of others. I'm using Homepage running in Docker as a dashboard for that stuff, it's pretty neat. It's like having a computer for your computer. As for my actual computer, I'm currently using Arch with Niri, a Wayland compositor. Niri is really damn good btw, for everything except gaming apparently, though I have never had a problem with that. I've been using it for a couple of months now and I'm keeping a KDE Plasma setup handy just in case.

Recently, I set up Pi-hole on my home server to handle local DNS and block network-wide ads. Overall, I've been trying to maintain a very lean system and watch the installed packages like a hawk. I'm thinking about trying Nix, but if I ever get serious about it, I'll try to follow a tutorial to set up Linux From Scratch on an old laptop. That should be fun.

My big takeaway was probably in the water book where he talks about having a commanding gaze. He reccomends keeping your eyes from wandering and trying to survey an entire area without using your eyes. Theres a lot of Buddhist philosophy weaved into the text that sounds interesting at first but is just a bunch of nothing burgers dressed up like poetry that was fun to read too. I definitely wouldn't reccomend this book for someone who isn't in a career that would benefit from seeing life as a series of conflicts. Id like to meet someone who did learn something from this book. For me, I rarely interact with people, and if I do I benefit mostly from just being pleasant towards them. I dont generally have a lot of conflict in my life right now, so there wasn't a lot in this book that was applicable to me.

I remember reading this book together with the Hagakure when I was a teenager and going through that classic samurai phase. I guess I was hoping for some life advice, but instead I got a pretty straightforward manual on swordsmanship. There's some good (but basic) advice on things like footwork, etc. more than there is advice on life in that book.
And don't even get me started on the Hagakure. I was hoping it was going to be the Japanese equivalent of Meditations by Marcus Aurelius (although I cam to dislike that book too) and instead I got a bunch of nonsense about the extremely contrived social etiquette of 17th century Japan written by a bureaucrat LARPing as a samurai.

Alcoholism Anonymage 08/11/25 (Mon) 14:25:02 No.302164 [Reply][Last 50 Posts]

Does anyone here struggle with alcohol, or have managed to quit?

It used to be a good coping mechanism for me, but it seems the older I've gotten the worse it feels, and it's become detrimental to my health and the way I behave around people. Easily annoyed, constantly starting shit, tired all the time, strange pains. And I was still getting worse, fast.

This has been a wake-up call and I'm realizing I need to quit before it's too late. Though that's easy for me to say now when I'm still feeling bad, and I fear the cravings will come back strong, but I know I've got to try.

Curious to hear others experience with this.

Skateboarding Anonymage 06/04/26 (Thu) 14:10:20 No.70652 [Reply]

A slightly unusual hobby for a wizardly man, but I've always had an attraction to it.

What I like about it is the extremely large variety of tricks that can be learned. It's like the Path of Exile skill tree in the sense you can pick a direction and learn that way. You can build up your foundations, or you can go the straight and narrow all the way to learning your favorite trick. The large variety of tricks also mean there are a ton of easier ones to learn, and learning these tricks provides such a strong feeling of accomplishment.

Cruising is very nice too, I intent to get a bigger old school board with soft(?) wheels for nice and easy transport.

The art on skateboards is also quite nice, there's something for everyone. Also you can buy blanks and draw on it yourself. I think the level of creativity in all aspects of this hobby is so amazing.

All things skating related welcomed, I'll try my best to answer with great care to everyone.

Thank you for participating

Excuse me, this is the anime t shirt discussion thread!

The time slowing down is real. Very crazy thing to describe to someone who has never experienced it. Also have you noticed when you slip during walking for example, you can automatically just rebalance yourself far better and very naturally? I can slip and my upper body remains so still. I could hold a glass of water and not spill a single drop.

One thing I'm quite worried about now is injuries. Now the injury itself is bad enough, but the hospitals in my country are a fuckng joke. My coworker was telling me today his brother broke his arm yesterday and had to wait 11 hours before he was treated. This has honestly dampened my interest in skating for the time being.. I can't do double doses of trauma, give me a broken arm sure but I need to be getting operated on within the hour. All that adrenaline and shock isn't gonna last long. That pain and the anxiety of not knowing when you'll be seen would break my mind

yeah i did notice this as well. skating as the art and love of movement. just trying to master some of it trickles into everything even slightly physical and improves it: from getting up off chairs better, to balancing unwieldy stuff with ease, to the way you normally walk on foot, to how it sounds when you type the keyboard, to quick reactions to prevent or reduce accidents in traffic even those you aren't even involved in, to being so mindful around careless people that you can anticipate when they fuck up so you are ready to help because you saw it coming so much earlier then everyone else. an incredible life-affirming chain-reaction concentrated care and attention into movement can start. i do believe normies think skating is vanity for lazy stoners but it is deep immersion into practical physics and so many people could benefit from it.

>I can slip and my upper body remains so still. I could hold a glass of water and not spill a single drop.

nice. you might find this interesting after i went running with my 70 year old father he slipped and broke his arm. he recovered and i taught him how to snakeboard after it and now a few weeks ago (8 years later) he slipped and fell again. this time nothing broke, he even said he felt the time slow down and he did manage to fall way better and distribute the energy of the fall without breaking or seriously hurting anything.

Skating is very high tech and if it weren't for the higher risk of injury it would be good for everyone to get into. It's a full body workout just like swimming.

Your father is very cool and blessed to be so physically and mentally sharp at that age. Very cool.

I think so as well, I mean I've had 15 years skating/bmxing experience over the years and I took most of it really slow. I've had bad falls but it was when I decided to advance to the next level, or it was a freak accident. I just overthink a lot, and see a few bad videos and it torments me. When I was around 18 or so I just didn't care, I remember I was considering killing myself as I was not taking the workplace well. I still remember posting here in the wagey threads in 2015 or whenever that was. God what a shit time, sadly things aren't much better I'm just a little more hardened and accepting of fate.

Heh you gotta be careful on this indoor parks. Smooth concrete and insanely slipperly wooden ramps. I ate shit trying the 5ft halfpipe. Sounds painful man, let us never forget our safety gear !

post something from japan (whatever) that makes you feel comfy or nostalgia for a country you are not from (japan).
For me it's this video that remind me summer in japan and how it makes me daydream about living in japan and coming back home from school or work or whatever at dawn on my bicycle and taking a bath and then eating japanese food and then playing some video games and read some manga or whatever
max comfy

Recently I've been getting into photography. I've found that after doing so, I perceive moments in different ways. Things simultaneously seem more transient, yet more permanent. It's a sensation that's difficult to describe, except to say that I am more 'aware' of the moments around me. For obvious reasons I have avoided urban areas, but in terms of landscapes and natural shots, it is quite peaceful.

Any photography hobbyists here?

I've decided to take up wildlife photography as a way to live my life to the fullest while living in a tent on public land.

I just bought an Olympus E-M1X used and an "open box" Panasonic Lumix G VARIO 100-300mm f/4.0-5.6 lens to go with it.

I decided on the micro four thirds form factor simply because the super telephoto lenses are significantly smaller and cheaper due to the 2x crop factor from the smaller sensor. The 100-300 is essentially what a 200-600 on a full frame camera would be. They also make lenses with significantly more zoom than that all for less than comparable sony, nikon, or canon lenses.

The olympus bodies are especially well weather sealed which I desired. This lens was the cheapest weather sealed supertelephoto lens I could find. I think the larger body of the E-M1X should help it balance well with large zoom lenses.

I still want a 12/13 mm wide angle lens for landscapes but I might wait a while to buy one because the camera + lens I just bought cost me almost $1200 after tax. This is not a cheap hobby sadly. I will report back after the camera arrives and I've had a chance to use it.

You can get a speedbooster. It's an adapter to put larger sensor lenses on smaller sensor bodies, with a corrective element to scale the full field of view down without any vignetting. It also results in more light reaching the senor overal, which is where it gets its name. There are decades of full-frame Canon ultrawide primes on eBay that get boosted to something like f0.95.

I shoot video on MFT and I find that the MFT versions of new lenses are always a bit cheaper for some reason.

Interesting, never heard of a speed booster before. I had been eyeing the 200mm f/2.8 to use with the 1.4 and 2x teleconverters as a potential upgrade path down the line. From what I'm reading it seems the speedbooster is pretty much like a teleconverter but in reverse. The more I learn about the MFT form factor the more I like it. It truly is versatile.

That's a common consensus. APSC sensors are bigger but their current issue is that cameras using them try to cram as many megapixels as possible over its real estate. The end result is smaller texel size which means each pixel is fueled by less light, culminating in a darker image with poorer dynamic range. My BMPCC4k is MFT but it only needs to spread a 4096x2160 image over that sensor so the images just glow straight off the camera.

The Rokinon 12mm is a good ultrawide I use and I hear good things about the (older) SLRMagic 8mm video lens. The former is a photograpy lens so it's sharp. What's nice about both of these lenses is that they're ultrawide but with glass that physically corrects the barrel distortion, so you don't get the severe fisheye effect.

I hope you see many cool birds and other wildlife in your tent adventures

Thanks for suggesting the rokinon. Seems like exactly what I need. I shouldn't need autofocus for landscapes after all. Part of me wonders if it is actually worth it though when my phone is so good at landscapes already.

Thanks too for the well wishes. I reciprocate them and hope you enjoy videoing whatever you're trying to shoot.

Steins gate reboot Anonymage 05/15/26 (Fri) 21:35:56 No.63516 [Reply]

Hello everyone,

I recently started playing the Steins Gate VN, has been an enjoyable mean while, while searching for something related to the series I found out about the reboot. It seems the developers plan to copyright strike anyone who uploads or streams the game.

How do you feel about that

Anonymage 08/20/26 (Thu) 20:41:20 No.63650

I'm hijacking this thread to share the post credits scene. People are saying this voice is shun from occultic;nine, who's supposed to be one of the main characters in the upcoming steins;???.
I barely remember occultic;nine though, so I don't really know what that means
