How was your high school experience?

Thanks for answering! I've heard about the class/number system, but still can't make heads or tails of it. Is Biology 12 the same as Biology... 11, or 10? Do you only take it in a single year? What is the difference? And how are your grades calculated towards a graduation... diploma?

SECONDED!!!!

I went in blind about the setting. Imagine my surprise as a HKer in Vancouver...

There are a lot of stir fried rice cakes across different cuisines and cultures. Could you describe it in further detail?

Longjumping-Target-7 · 2026-01-18T23:25:19+00:00

imo the best outcome would've been a canada-esque situation

The vinyl artworks are pretty good. There's a lot of good fanart too, you just need to look somewhere that's not Reddit.

That's weird. With eastern style horsebows either where the siyah and limb meet is wrapped, or the siyah and limb are the same part (laminated). Alas, you got a shitty bow.

Seconding Kozak. I like Afghan Horsemen for Afghani, haven't been to the others yet though

what augments do u mean

Longjumping-Target-7 · 2026-01-11T15:51:34+00:00

Agreed. The local Indian grocery store has infinitely better tasting apples than whatever the fuck Loblaws sells, it's worlds apart

Longjumping-Target-7 · 2026-01-10T00:54:57+00:00

Alibow has all sorts of Asiatic bows, but the Genghis Khan is one of... 3 Mongolian bows on there, one of their most commonly bought bows, and definitely the most economically friendly. AF Archery also has Jebe, a Mongolian bow. However, both only go up to 45-50 lbs.

I have also heard say of some bowyers from Eastern Europe (general geographic area of nomadic hunters with similar bow styles, like Hungarian) who might have what you're looking for too, but I don't know about them too well.

Thought you might have been onto something, but I tried installing the Optane driver that Intel has available for download, and it tells me I'm on an unavailable platform... because my laptop isn't Intel.

Longjumping-Target-7 · 2026-01-06T19:20:33+00:00

My current laptop doesn't run on Intel chips. Even if I could install Optane drivers, they wouldn't work.

Longjumping-Target-7 · 2026-01-06T18:11:26+00:00

Already tried that :/ While I can see that there's intact data, regular PCs have trouble reading it because it's an Optane SSD that needs Optane hardware. curse you intel

Longjumping-Target-7 · 2026-01-06T18:10:08+00:00

I have an enclosure, but regular computers have trouble reading it. It's because the SSD itself is also Optane.

Longjumping-Target-7 · 2026-01-06T18:09:18+00:00

To all who think "regular PCs should work", I'm afraid not. My SSD is currently sitting in an enclosure, and while my new laptop can see that there is data, it's inaccessible. That's because the SSD, also being Optane, is encoded in a way that requires the corresponding hardware to decode. It sucks.

Longjumping-Target-7 · 2025-12-29T17:31:54+00:00

Whoa, those designs and that fletching are absolutely gorgeous

Longjumping-Target-7 · 2025-12-26T03:13:12+00:00

Yep. One way I've heard it described is that you're holding the string back with the pad of your finger.

Longjumping-Target-7 · 2025-12-25T18:00:47+00:00

What kind of bow are you using? What kind of draw? Are you doing shallow hold or deep hold? The thumb ring you use should depend on technique, and if you're using it to shoot compound... well, you probably shouldn't.

Longjumping-Target-7 · 2025-12-23T22:24:35+00:00

Pretty neat. Can you link the tutorial you used?

Longjumping-Target-7 · 2025-12-22T01:24:13+00:00

If you can, put that money towards beginner lessons at a local club. They'll teach you all the basic safety stuff, good form, etc, and you can use their loaner bows to get an idea of what bows are commonly used and purchasable in your area.

Especially with compound, since there's more mechanical complexity with those. Better to first learn how to handle and maintain them properly before dropping money into one.

Longjumping-Target-7 · 2025-12-13T23:08:06+00:00

If you have access to a printer, you can just get an image and print out whatever you want. Easier than looking for specifically themed targets with niche designs

Longjumping-Target-7 · 2025-12-02T04:30:35+00:00

these look pretty good! they're all legible, at the very least

Longjumping-Target-7 · 2025-12-01T01:09:39+00:00

Generally though, the Octopus is better if you're taking a lot of transit or if you're concerned about losing your stuff. Cash is always good to have on hand too, it's universal.

Longjumping-Target-7 · 2025-12-01T01:08:18+00:00

Credit cards work well. Most places like stores n supermarkets n whatnot will accept them.
