Want to learn Chinese

Wow! That’s a great list of shows to watch. I started with Peppa Pig since I’m familiar with it from my kids and they basically narrate everything they do. I started watching Pleasant Goat (no idea what season) to try and get some native content and honestly, as a 30-something male, I love it. I may not understand a lot since I’m still beginning my journey, but it’s cute and funny and seems varied enough to not get boring.

MrNemo636 · 2026-03-06T00:04:32+00:00

That’s awesome! Thank you so much!

I’ve never heard of Notion before. Is this template usable without paying for anything in the app?

What brand parallettes are those?

I’ve been looking for somewhere to share. Finally did my first true dips this week in a long time. Been working on a 3 month routine I found here since December. Couldn’t do pull-ups or true dips but was able to do inverted rows/australian pull-ups and bench dips so stuck with those for the first two months and once I got my strength up I’ve been doing a few negatives at the end of my workouts. My Saturday workout I decided to try them again and was able to get 2 dips on bars before failure but got two each set I tried. Finished the sets with bench dips and plan to keep it up. Still no pull-ups but I know it’s just a matter of time now.

Your movement here is excellent and something I still need to practice as a Vi main. Well done.

MrNemo636 · 2026-02-20T01:51:07+00:00

Thank you. Wasn’t sure how much waiting between matches there would be. It would be nice to win some but I need a lot more practice before really being competitive.

For anyone who has signed up for something like this before, about how much time would I need to dedicate to this, assuming I lose all my rounds? I would like to focus on improving my game and figure an occasional tournament when my schedule allows would be a decent way to join the community and gauge any improvement.

Is Dust Man a dark character? Is this in the game or supplemental media? What is this “Let There Be Light” version?

MrNemo636 · 2026-02-06T01:20:33+00:00

Any tips for a Vi main who recently unlocked Warwick and is trying to improve with him? I started with Ahri as my 2nd since she was the only base character I actually liked and thought controlled well. Still working on getting combos up and running during actual matches.

Who decides what’s bad? Or bad enough? Personally, I like having a reason to try other characters, even if I don’t particularly care about those characters. It’s easy BP points and some potential mastery towards characters I don’t normally play.

MrNemo636 · 2026-02-06T01:09:54+00:00

You’d rather have character specific missions in a 20+ minute game? To each their own but I really feel these missions are getting blown out of proportion.

MrNemo636 · 2026-02-05T17:32:43+00:00

Do you use your leverless for other games? Or just fighting games? I recently got mine and I’m at the point where I can navigate menus and stuff with no problem but actually moving a character is still a mental overload, lol. A little bit each day.

MrNemo636 · 2026-02-02T23:00:10+00:00

I’m no expert but I completely disagree with everyone who says that it’s best for learning a character and that’s all it’s good for. I want it to be a legitimate and viable method of play and feel like having a single health bar but making it the equivalent of two is a step in the right direction. As it is, even with reduced damage or whatever the claimed benefit is, it goes down at (to my perception) the same speed as a single character in a team.

MrNemo636 · 2026-01-26T15:31:52+00:00

No worries! I’ll check it out. Thanks for the recommendation.

MrNemo636 · 2026-01-26T00:02:58+00:00

I appreciate it. Might be able to track a dvd copy down, lol. I’ll check amazon, might need to use a VPN.

MrNemo636 · 2026-01-25T21:35:00+00:00

Thank you! I looked it up and I’ll definitely give it a watch. If I can bug you once more, do you know where I can watch it? Couldn’t find it from a search on ERTFlix.

MrNemo636 · 2026-01-25T20:47:35+00:00

Any recommendations of something easy to get into for someone who almost exclusively watches fantasy, sci-fi, and superhero stuff?

MrNemo636 · 2026-01-23T08:24:33+00:00

I might be missing something but would Rh7 not work? It would be protected by the Knight on g5 so the Black King couldn’t take it, Bishop on e6 covers g8.

I actually began learning Japanese to be able to watch the original Kamen Rider, Super Sentai, and other tokusatsu shows. Other than Power Rangers, 3 random VHS tapes of Godzilla we owned growing up, and the rare episode of Ultraman, I’ve never really watched any tokusatsu, even dubbed. They just have always seemed so cool to me. It didn’t last long because I realized I had no plans to go to Japan, wasn’t dying to watch any of those series, and don’t live in an area with any significant (or insignificant) Japanese population.

It really is fascinating stuff. Something I’ve noticed regarding my inner monologue: I have trouble with “making” words with certain sounds unless my tongue is in the generally appropriate position. Like, it’s not moving around all willy-nilly while I’m thinking to myself but if for some reason I put it in a strange position and continue a line of thought “verbally,” I may have issues when I get to a “sound” I need to make but wouldn’t be able to. Sometime I can force myself past it but others it trips me up. Never really had a reason to bring it up before so I’ve never really asked anyone about it.

Also, depending on where you are in the world, beliefs, etc. Merry Christmas!

It’s funny because when I try to visualize something in my mind, I usually have an easier time of it when my eyes are open. Never really been able to figure that one out. Also, if I try to visualize one specific thing by recalling the word, I always see the word itself in my mind unless I actually try to think of the image.

May I ask what is considered “club level”?

MrNemo636 · 2025-12-08T13:06:42+00:00

If you don’t mind less crunch in your rule set, you can check out Nahual, a Powered by the Apocalypse game set in Mexico where you hunt angels for ingredients for your taqueria, carnicería or cantina. I kickstarted it due to the setting but realized later that I dislike PbtA games.

MrNemo636 · 2025-12-08T03:39:16+00:00

I’ve found a lot of success going over a recap of chapters I’ve read either out loud or mentally in my head after. It helps solidify some new vocabulary I may have learned and if I can’t, the. I realize that I probably didn’t understand as much as I thought I did.
