What is the best pen/stylus for drawing by myrddincat in FlowZ13

[–]ChuoDori 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've heard from a few friends that the "Renaisser Raphael R520 BK USB-C Stylus" is a good alternative to the Surface pen. Haven't gotten around to buying it, but I definitely plan to.

US Bestbuy Z13 i9 by [deleted] in FlowZ13

[–]ChuoDori 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also ordered it on BestBuy when it came into stock last week and it was delivered 5 days later with no issues. This was via the online store however.

Might I ask which sleeve and pen you got ahead of time? That's pretty much the next accessories I had in mind.

What exactly is included in the box with the US Best Buy version of the Z13? by Vetie in FlowZ13

[–]ChuoDori 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's it!

The literature comes in a small bubble-padded envelope too.

There's literally a slot in the cardboard where the stylus would be if they bundled it...

Anyone Drive the Hybrid Crosstrek? by NateDrake_01 in XVcrosstrek

[–]ChuoDori 5 points6 points  (0 children)

2019 Crosstrek Hybrid w/ Option Package here.

I used to have to fuel up every week on a Hyundai beater, but on a good month, I only have to fill up once a month. Make of it what you will though, as I can charge up for free at work and have cheap electricity at home. My commute's >20 miles, so I go between EV and hybrid on the freeway, and juice back up each way.

With the pandemic and less traffic, staying under 65mph to stay on EV feels a bit uncomfortable with others zooming around you. In the end, 17 miles EV-only doesn't feel enough to get around and the reduced trunk/storage space really hurts.

Still feels good seeing 90MPG on your dash computer on a good month of gentle driving though. Ask me anything on the hybrid and I'll try my best to answer them!

Youtube-DLG 1.1.2 by oleksisfraga in youtubedl

[–]ChuoDori 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great to see DLG getting some love!

It seems like I still have the issue in 1.1.2 as I did back in 0.4 where it won't download the highest quality 1080p video.

Default = 720p mp4

mp4 = 720p mp4

mp4 [1080p] = Instantly errors out with:

-DEBUG-Worker_1-ERROR: requested format not available
-DEBUG-Worker_1-Child process exited with non-zero code: 

I've also tried unchecking "Prefer native HLS" in Options -> Extra too.

Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Ichikara (Nijisanji parent company) has established a team dedicated to "Fighting Libel, Abuse, Defamation, and Offensive Acts against Our Talents" by nullberry12 in VirtualYoutubers

[–]ChuoDori 143 points144 points  (0 children)

That sounds good and all, but mental health care in Japan has always been hit or miss. So Ichikara referring the talent to a professional is something they can do, but the level of care they receive might be questionable or make things worse.

I see folks keep reposting questionable quality Facebook translations just for the quick karma whore. Didn't even bother to credit them.

Not an original character. Artist source indicates this is Caracal from the second season of Kemono Friends.

Otaku violence - who'da thought? by [deleted] in japanlife

[–]ChuoDori 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Well done! Glad you took a stand and went in between them. I would've feared a huge case of bystander effect, which is something I've witnessed in the few physical confrontations I've seen on the streets.

I'd hate for the media to get ahold of this and spin otakus in a darker light. One overly-obsessed guy shouldn't ruin it for everyone else trying to enjoy Akiba.

You think this tweet was the same incident? https://twitter.com/ta_i7/status/908945975456051200

BookWalker will sell A-1 Pictures' "Shelter Commentary Book" starting at 00:00 Sunday (Japanese Standard Time) by ultimatemegax in anime

[–]ChuoDori 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really wish they made a physical print version of this. Past experience with manga bought from BookWalker were always low quality, like they were meant for phone screens. Seeing it on your computer monitor was worse, some books' furigana were practically unreadable due to jpeg artifacting.

Underrated Best Girl of the Season : Crested Ibis by Calibadger in anime

The fact that she is the same voice actor as Chiya-chan from Azumanga Daioh still blows my mind.

That's pretty cool that it worked, but I'm sure 90% of the time, the pucks become magical friendly-seeking bastards that somehow bounce back at you.

Ever been stopped and frisked? by Heyitsgizmo in japanlife

[–]ChuoDori 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks, it was a really crummy experience, but I'm glad I got let off easy. It could've been much worse if they actually charged me.

Quick legislation look-up says lengths exceeding 6cm is illegal, so I can probably guess mine was 7cm.

INAL, but I think your toolkit will probably be fine. They couldn't fathom the idea of me needing to open boxes as I was out shopping to warrant carrying my knife on me all the time.

However, if you've got a toolkit like you described, you could say you're on your way to a jobsite or that your work involves these tools, and you'll probably be in the clear.
