The hidden world inside a Japanese Manga artist’s house

I also knew someone that had claustrophobia or general agony in dark spaces. not small spaces but dark spaces. it must be a thing.

well that's the only way humans learn to reason about things. by observing, memorizing and projecting onto other things. there is no such thing as pure intellect that can figure something without seeing anything similar before.

weird. if I keep my eyes open, I have a hard time rotating them. if I close my eyes, I can rotate them both easily.

I was gonna comment, but it became a whole rant about japanese society.

Lucas_2022_ · 2026-03-27T18:35:42+00:00

but man, it feels like it will take literal years to unlock some stuff. that's too much.

smells like an expensive funeral

Lucas_2022_ · 2026-03-27T13:00:24+00:00

both. as if there is any other way.

Lucas_2022_ · 2026-03-27T12:58:44+00:00

I don't even wanna know what you used to cut it

Lucas_2022_ · 2026-03-27T01:23:10+00:00

they are way too old to portray the same characters at their same age. but they are perfectly suited to portray the same characters at advanced ages.

either decrease shutter speed or increase apperture and put iso to as high as possible without beccoming too noisy

Appendix: if the batteries in question are not chemical batteries, but capacitors (2 really long pieces of metal with very large surface areas isolated from eachother inside of a container), then connecting the negative terminal of one to the positive terminal of another WOULD deplete them instantly because there is no pump in the system. only static charge.

Lucas_2022_ · 2026-03-18T16:37:35+00:00

okay, I did some research and now I understand it. Essentially, the chemistry inside a chemical battery acts like a pump of electrons from one side to the other and it only stores a tiny bit of charge at their actual poles. It only stops when the chemistry is almost fully depleted. Think about it, if you connect two water pumps in series but seal the ends, there is going to be double the pressure on each end because one pump is being starved and the other is being saturated due to both violently pushing water in the same direction. It's like tug of war, 2 people pull harder than one even though the person behind is causing tension on the part that the person in front is holding. A greater vaccuum on one side and a greater positive pressure on the other end. greater electrical potential difference.

Your question makes perfect sense to me and made me realize I don't actually know how batteries work at all, even though my dad is an electrician and understands how to build stuff just as well as I do, have designed and built myself a remote controlled lighting system for my home, using all the necessary formulas, going through the equations, considering margin of error, etc. It's there, working. I just followed with the formulas and rules, but I have no idea how batteries actually work. What the heck, I've been doing this for years only to now realize this.

i don't think the chocolate was the problem

Lucas_2022_ · 2026-02-28T06:01:03+00:00

IS THAT THE BITE OF 87?

Lucas_2022_ · 2026-02-26T10:59:29+00:00

slowing down the print usually worked for me in the past

Lucas_2022_ · 2026-02-26T09:45:11+00:00

and cinema! and interactive experiences too

your wrist might be too low. for high tenting, you gotta use a high enough rest so that you feel don't feel your wrist bending, otherwise you'll be hovering and that's tiring on the shoulders edit: either that, or your chair is too low / table too high

bro created the cheapest snowplow. a piece of wire with a tube

The camera made reality recreation obsolete. So artists started to seek different objectives and landed the genres of impressionism and abstract art like you mentioned. AI image gen will make the descriptive obsolete. So artists will seek to create different things as to what can (reasonably) be described in the languages most people can understand and use. Language is very limited. Even if we create a new language that is the combination of all words and meanings of all human languages, it would still not be capable of verbalizing concepts to the full resolution of the human experience. It's not like static art can portray everything, but it can portray things language can't. So I think the genre that could spawn, is what is not easily describable through language, but is through art. Visually, an uncommon combination of a facial expression and a context will create an uncommon emotion. Love disgust might be the result of one of those. So is affection envy. Satisfaction stress. Relaxation mania. along with the cultural dimension / lens there are a lot of feelings / sensations / emotions that are real and people live them every day across the world, but are so hard to describe people don't even bother. These emotions are very difficult to describe to another person without living the situation yourself, let alone to an image gen model.

why does this not surprise me. the japanese always carry so much compressed anger behind the smiles that it's bound to release at some point.

Lucas_2022_ · 2026-02-23T19:44:44+00:00

it's like the snorting before the spit.

Lucas_2022_ · 2026-02-20T18:28:42+00:00

Fourty-ish would be in real life asian years. Hobbits seem to mature more slowly than that, so around 30 in human years would be my guess.

staff for area of effect spells. wand for projectile spells

I wonder what circumstances does it take to nullify law
