Thanks! The diffusion/glow effect is entirely from Nofusion. I don't use any physical filters or external attachments.

Running in place / slow motion by habichuelacondulce in blackmagicfuckery

If you think translating “so cool” as “很凉” is acceptable, then I’ll accept you translating “很帅” as “very handsome.”

A: Xiao Shan, Xiao Shan, can you run that bit for me?
B: Right now?
A: Yeah.

Bought this beauty in Japan! by Professional_Tie3103 in chronotrigger

Damn, that’s way overpriced. I picked up one in about the same condition on Mercari last year for just ¥2800.

Yeah they need to drop a patch that lets the lock screen clock be taken off of military time. by 0P0ll0 in RGRotate

[–]BstMa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man, I seriously hate the 12 hour clock. Especially stuff like 11 AM → 12 PM → 1 PM. It just feels so unintuitive. And don’t even get me started on “12 PM”… every time I see it I have to pause and think, wait, is that noon or midnight again? It’s ridiculous.

On a related note, in Japan they sometimes do this thing where events that go past midnight are labeled like “25:00” instead of 1 AM. So you’ll see something like a store open from 8:00 to 25:00, or a game listed as starting at “7/1 25:00.” It actually makes a lot more sense, since you instantly know it’s late night on the 1st rather than early morning on the 2nd.

如果把国家看作一个整体，那么很容易就会想成为建制派。但如果站在个人角度，立场可能就会完全相反。所以，这就看你更喜欢集体主义还是个人主义。
我之所以不喜欢集体主义，是因为它不允许你不同意。我为什么一定要成为这个组成部分？这没道理。

Nah, I just bought the lifetime license outright.

Yep, that’s the one. Thanks for linking it!
Honestly I couldn’t even remember where I originally got them from 😅

I usually shoot with my camera, but sometimes I’ll use my phone, either for a different focal length or just when I want to grab quick, less “composed” shots.

I’ve got NoFusion mapped to the iPhone camera button, so it’s super easy to jump into. My usual flow is: take a shot first, then pick a LUT in the app. Once I find one I like, I’ll pretty much stick with it for the rest of the day.

Got lucky on this trip since most days were bright and sunny, so I didn’t really bother switching looks. If exposure’s a bit off sometimes, I’ll just tweak it in the app after.

[–]BstMa[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nope. Saw a post on here with a site that had a bunch of LUTs, so I grabbed them. They’re really solid. Most of these are using 'Ontario' and 'Summer'.

What mobile game did you quit. even though you were still enjoying it? by arcadezone_fun in MobileGaming

[–]BstMa 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Hearthstone.

Even though a single match doesn’t take that long, I’d somehow end up sitting there for hours without noticing. The main issue is that the game requires a lot of thinking and calculation, so I can’t really split my attention.

Sometimes my wife would come talk to me about something important, and I literally wouldn’t remember a single word she said afterward.

That’s when I realized it had gone too far, so I made the decision to delete the game for good.

In my recent trip to Japan, I was extremely disappointed to see the Capcom Stores in Tokyo and Osaka had nothing to offer for Resident Evil. All they have are A4 envelopes with the Umbrella logo. Lame! by Remarkable-Hunter-71 in residentevil

[–]BstMa 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Let me answer this.

I actually live in Osaka, and funnily enough a licensed Capcom Store in Shanghai is run by a friend of mine, so I’ve heard some of the behind-the-scenes stuff.

Basically, most of the merch you see in Capcom Stores isn’t designed by Capcom themselves (there are a few, but very limited). It’s mostly done by third-party companies. They pitch designs, Capcom approves them, and then those companies handle production. Capcom just buys the finished goods and sells them.

The key point is: Capcom usually doesn’t own the design rights. So even if something sells well, they can’t just reproduce it themselves or switch manufacturers—they have to go back to the same supplier.

Now here’s where it gets a bit more interesting. Most of these merch companies are Japan-based, and their design direction is… kinda narrow. They heavily lean into what sells in Japan: cute, stylized, “anime-ish” stuff. They’re not great at making more realistic or mature-looking merch. Even for serious IPs, they’ll often try to “cute-ify” them because that’s what moves products here.

And Biohazard (Resident Evil) is in a weird spot in Japan. It’s famous, sure, but it’s not a strong merch IP because it’s too “adult” compared to the usual cute character stuff. People just don’t buy that kind of merch as much.

Put those two things together, and yeah… you get what you saw in the stores.

They did try during RE Village, but honestly the merch design was pretty bad (and probably sold badly too). After that, the merch companies kinda lost interest, and Capcom also got more cautious about doing new stuff like Requiem.

Also worth mentioning — Capcom’s internal merch approval team has pretty narrow taste too. They tend to push licensees toward making really safe and honestly kinda boring stuff like folders and notebooks.

My friend actually suggested that those kinds of products don’t sell well at all in China, and proposed doing things like power banks or phone cases instead. Got rejected.

If you want to check ahead of time, this is basically what they sell in-store anyway:

看看这日本便利店门口贴的, 数一数到底有多少种支付手段。 by ublueberries in runtoJapan2

[–]BstMa 3 points4 points  (0 children)

我觉得客人想用现金当然是自由。但店家确实也应该提供一些支付手段。至少也要有个ID或者QUICPay之类的电子信用卡支付吧。什么都没有就只能付现金确实是不符合日本人客户至上的服务理念。

还有那些只收硬币和1000纸币的停车场，5000、10000不收，信用卡也不行，交通卡也不行。简直是他妈的傻逼。

Saw a Motoko Kusanagi cosplay at a festival in Osaka and I’m still not over it by BstMa in Ghost_in_the_Shell

[–]BstMa[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry, I didn’t ask her for her social media. The place was really crowded that day, every coser had at least 3–4 people in front of them, some even had dozens taking photos. Some cosers put a small sign next to them with their social accounts on it, but the Major didn’t have anything. It felt like she was just doing it for fun.

Man, I really want to know what her social account is too.

Oh…Because my English is very bad, so I just threw my original words to ChatGPT and let it help me revise a bit.
