  1. Hap Birth, Chi!

      thank you fitzu! 😙

  2. Has anyone ordered from cdbanq before? Thoughts?

  3. Have your upload speeds ever dropped to like .08 kbps? It took forever to upload just a few megabytes of e-mail attachments yesterday X_x

      I feel your pain. I recently changed providers and now mine does that all the time. :|

      I was wondering why I couldn't even upload pics yesterday! Is there any way to fix or 'alleviate' this problem that you're aware of or is it just a waiting game?

    3. doombox

      With my provider it's just a waiting game. I try not to do too much upload/streaming during peak hours. But if yours is more often then that sometimes the can install a "booster" to help you get a stronger signal?

  4. I know I'm years late, but I noticed Sailor Moon Crystal was on Hulu, so I started watching it recently. I kind of love it?! I only casually watched the 90s series. It's of course a classic, but I could never bring myself to watch every single episode, because of the tedious "monster of the week" structure and the absolute milking of transformation/attack animation sequences. This remake, which I hear follows the manga much more closely, has much better pacing, a more serious tone, and a lot more variety when it comes to attacks. Some cheap CGI and nothing beats the original music, but overall, a really worthy remake, imo!

      i was not aware that it followed closely to the manga. however the animation is too awful for me to pick it up.....

      @MamoHulu has the first two seasons of the 90s series dubbed (the new Viz dub, which is quite good); I assume they will keep adding the dubbed seasons, as they become available?

      (And all 3 seasons of Crystal are in both dubbed/subs)

      Thanks for the info.

  5. I'm really curious about the PELICAN FANCLUB Home Electronics limited edition t-shirt... I wonder if they'll reveal the design. I might need to buy the XL, so I can look fly af like endou and his giant shirts!

  6. Jesus god, Slowdive was glorious. #shoeslaze Any MH members seeing them on tour?

      I wish :( They're coming to Brazil this month, but it's still way too far and expensive for me to go. Also @fitear1590their album's already leaked a few days ago if you're interested.

  7. Just out of curiosity, have you ever followed one of your favorite musicians/actors/etc on social media, and lost your fandom for them as a result of how they act/what they post?

    1. karai · ebi

      karai · ebi

      No, because I don't use social media to avoid pretty much what everyone said above. I don't care about politics or drama, I can't do anything about it and so I don't want to hear about it 24/7 and get harassed because I don't have an interest.

      That would probably be the main reason I'd lose interest in someone aside obviously from some horrible act like animal abuse / child abuse.

      I only made a twitter account this year to keep up with obscure bands releases, but I log in once a week to scan over lol.

    2. The Moon

      The Moon

      most vk twitters are milquetoast so no not really 

    3. Komorebi

      Komorebi

      I mainly follow VK band guys and japanese gyas. I avoid western artists because they won't shut up with the politics and idiotic opinions about everything that happens.

       

      I don't care about some actor's opinion on the Trump Administration or global warming.

  8. Looks like PELICAN FANCLUB is losing their guitarist and the band will continue as a trio??

    1. Chi

      Chi

      yeah it was a sudden announcement but kurumada is leaving :cry:

  9. No shade to LONDBOY fans, but I did not enjoy the new album. "Open your heart" (their first single) is still BY FAR my favorite song of theirs. None of the new songs on this album even compare. What did everyone else think of 少年事変 (shounen jihen)?

    1. Mihenno

      Mihenno

      Same as you, except Iris is my favorite song of theirs. But yeah none of the new tracks grabbed my attention. Tbh none of the b sides on Iris did anything for me either so I didn't really have any high expectations for the album. :(

    2. chemicalpictures

      chemicalpictures

      haven't seen much praise around either. it's clearly a rushed album. Even the production is messy to say the least.

    3. hiroki

      hiroki

      i thought the first half of the album was pretty bad, but the second half had some nice tracks. other than their single A-sides (all of which i love), DATURA and ギフト were the only tracks that i really enjoyed from the album. maybe my expectations were too high this time haha. i still think they have enough potential for me to continue following them though :)

  10. Not sure if trend-setting hipster or the next K-pop fuckboy.

      @Peace Heavy mk II, hdu!!!1! Nah, it's a musician named Gus Dapperton, haha.

  11. Omg, the leaked Trump video of him being disgusting toward women is actually turning some of the remaining Republicans on my FB. There is a gawd!

    1. Komorebi

      Komorebi

      This year's elections be like: Joffrey Baratheon VS Ramsay Bolton

      like girls dont talk about guys like that. It would be bad if he actually grabbed her vag. ppl are to sensitive.

    3. doombox

      This still represents exactly how I feel about Trump.

  12. Ordered on Wednesday, will arrive on Monday: in what world is this "two-day" shipping?? It's free so I'm not complaining, but c'mon Amazon Prime!

    1. IGM_Oficial

      IGM_Oficial

      If it really arrives on the monday, it's fucking prime.

  13. Random af, but when did "influencer" become an established term?

    1. fitear1590

      fitear1590

      @colorfuljinsei @platy Thanks, about 2 years ago is what I was thinking.
      @AimiGen7 lol, sadly this is the world we live in. I use German as litmus test and since "Influencer" (yes, straight from trendy English) has entered German, then I think it must be somewhat established.

    2. Shir0

      Shir0

      it iis for quite some time now  actually. My seminar paper was about Influencer ( did it in German and yes I used the English word cuz like u thought it somewhat became an established term) and during my research I found articles that were over 2 years old already but imo its still relatively new most of the

      "useful" articles I used were not even a year old 

    3. fitear1590

      fitear1590

      @Shir0 thanks for the input! That’s cool that you researched it.

  14. Sense8 canceled... no!!!

      fitear1590

      @PlatyNot sure if you saw the news, but it looks like Sense8 will at least get a 2-hour finale special! Better than nothing, I guess!

    3. platy

      platy

      @fitear1590I just saw the news!

      I'm happy with that, at least we will get a conclusion, can't complain.

  15. So I've heard conflicting opinions... Should I do the free update to Windows 10 or not?

    1. ruki11

      ruki11

      I'd use win7 until it dead

    2. Hakoniwa

      Hakoniwa

      Some friends loved it, some had a huge problem with it. I personally am very attached to Windows 7, though I use Windows 8 at work... to me the biggest downside of W8 is the not-yet-fixed bugs and the lack of tutorials to solve those. But this is getting better as time goes, so why not.

    3. Hakoniwa

      Hakoniwa

      meant biggest downside of W10* oops

  16. Sonic Mania!!! I've only briefly played it, but the combination of nostalgia (I was a major Sega Genesis/Megadrive and Saturn fanboy) and fresh new gameplay (while still in the classic 2D mode) is such a commendable balance. Can't wait to play more and with all 3 characters!

  18. The inception of "unsorted music" folders on my desktop has gotten out of hand...

    1. reminiscing2004

      reminiscing2004

      This is the magic of having an "Unorganized Music" folder you can lazily throw things into

    2. Seimeisen

      I have multiple "unsorted music" folders on both of my hard drives, and each of them have sub-folders to try and keep stuff sorted by download date.

  19. This is extremely random, but I'm calling all the Mac users out there for some frivolous help: how do you get animated GIFs to work  (to "animate") on Apple's PowerPoint? On Windows, you just copy/paste and the image automatically animates when in "presentation" view.

    1. whitegrey

      whitegrey

      You mean on Keynote, right? It may sound lame but the best/cleanest solution would be converting the GIF to a Quicktime-compatible movie and then add it... This can easily be done online, for example here; https://cloudconvert.com/anything-to-mp4 - when added this way you get a 'movie' tab at the file inspector where you can change the loop behaviour.

    2. nekkichi
    3. whitegrey

      whitegrey

      I'm like this because I just want to make sure. Yeah, I know the file renaming solution too - and chances are not bad that it works - but it might not work for every Keynote version and it might not work for every GIF as far as I know (it should with newer versions, yes) - that's why I'd choose actually turning the GIF into .mp4 via actually converting it 1st step outside of the application. Basically it is the same anyways - I just don't trust Keynote to full extent with that...

  20. What's your favorite loanword (from English, French, etc.) that appears disproportionately often in Japanese music? Mine is "qualia"
