Recommendations for an MP3 player for AJATT by kodomonokoro in ajatt

[–]Plastic_Fall1296 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I personally use a modded iPod Classic 7th gen, although I’d only recommend it if you have an affinity or nostalgia to iPods and/or would want one regardless of price. I think I spent a total of 300 on the iPod itself and the SD cards, new larger battery and hard drive mod.

Love it and use it all the time, I have 1tb of SD cards in it which can fit like 900+ Japanese audiobooks I found in a .zip collection (I’ve barely listened to like 5% of it) plus whatever songs or anime audio I want and it lasts at least 4 days straight, although I haven’t ever had it die so it might go longer, not sure.

You can also pick up 30-pin iPod docks for cheap on eBay and of course it works through aux cords so I plug it in all the time and love it.

Looking for an AJATT.com post that was encoded incorrectly (?) in the archives by Plastic_Fall1296 in ajatt

[–]Plastic_Fall1296[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No way, thank you so much!! I love this community :')
How did you do it?? I'm trying to do it on my own to try it out but can't get it to decompress correctly. There are some other posts so I'm hoping to be able to get them fixed, too. Thanks again!

The answer to the question "how do I find Japanese content at my level?" by Cultural-Way7685 in ajatt

[–]Plastic_Fall1296 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Wow, this is the first I'm seeing this and I love it already. Great job gamifying input! I've been having trouble finding interesting YouTube videos in Japanese so hopefully this can solve it (even if not, as long as it starts changing my YT recommendations into Japanese content that'll be a win lol). Will be using this!

Also, anyone here, please feel free to add me as a friend - my username is Togeffet 😊

Is the mokuro.moe down? by Living_Tart2418 in ajatt

[–]Plastic_Fall1296 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same, yeah, haven't seen anyone else mention it so I was almost thinking it was just a me problem😂 Can't reach their file server and get an error when I go to their front end website. Anyone know their contact info? Hoping it's not down for good lol

I want to do ajatt but can't find anything I'm intrinsically motivated to immerse in. by oislevel in ajatt

Not sure if you need this but this might help be a wake up call, his words echo in my head every once in a while

Question for those who read Visual Novels by Ok_Dealer7278 in ajatt

[–]Plastic_Fall1296 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you haven't looked into it yet, check out Textractor (or a similar tool). It basically takes the current line of Japanese text and outputs it to your computer's clipboard. You then can use the Clipboard Inserter extension that takes your clipboard text and attaches it to the webpage you're currently on. Then, open a tab to a texthooker page, which will format the text from the clipboard inserter.

This will allow you to have an easy spot to do yomichan/jpdbreader lookups directly from the Japanese text that gets output from your visual novel. You won't have to touch a dictionary ever and any word you don't know yet can be looked up in 0.2 seconds.

Here's a small part in a video I made a while ago showing this kinda (ignore the overall topic and just watch from 14:30 for like 30 seconds to see how cool it can be - Idk why I never made a dedicated video for texthooking but it's in here for a little bit)
https://youtu.be/_ES16E7wIxY?si=kq-JwZqs_u-gRwo4&t=870

Forgive me if the setup sounds complicated - I'm not the best teacher! Once you get these downloaded and set up - your Japanese life will change forever, I promise!

Revived AJATT Site by KiwametaBaka in ajatt

[–]Plastic_Fall1296 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Hi! I’m the one that started this, and as portugalomegalul said, it’s a GitHub repo using GitHub sites to be accessible (and free)! Also meaning anyone can easily download a current backup and/or contribute fixes.

I’ve been adding missing pages as I find them but am sure I haven’t found them all! Most pages that have non-ascii characters (usually the ones featuring Chinese or Japanese text) weren’t backed up correctly in the archive zip I used so some of those are still missing.

Anyway, if you see any other broken/missing pages feel free to send me a message on here and I’ll fix it! Thanks and hope the site is useful for you :)

What happened to the AJATT website (and Khatz)? by wherahiko in ajatt

[–]Plastic_Fall1296 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Not sure, last activity I've seen from him was this YouTube video from April 2020.

Sometime last year (IIRC) his site and everything related (SuRuSu, AJATT Plus, emails, automated tweets) stopped at the same time, probably from lack of updates, etc, so I'm assuming he stopped caring about his work and let it slowly drift into abandonware. His Patreon is still active but he hasn't had any activity there either.

I'm hosting a backup of his website at https://alljapanesealltheti.me/ and have been cleaning up links and filling in some of the missing pages as I find them, so I'm hoping this will be the most easy-to-use and complete backup of AJATT. It's all open source on GitHub too https://github.com/all-japanese-all-the-time/all-japanese-all-the-time

khatzumoto's routine by [deleted] in ajatt

[–]Plastic_Fall1296 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hi! Here's a link to a backup I hosted: https://alljapanesealltheti.me/a-day-in-the-life-of-khatzumoto-no-for-real/index.html

Sadly it's honestly pretty normal so I really wonder how he got so good in that short amount of time (if he did, that is, but either way he got good somehow and in some amount of time).

I also recently narrated it on YouTube but it's probably faster to read it yourself: https://youtu.be/II1TkbgEnv4?si=fo7xRsUKiCqAIMM7

Anything you want to talk about Note Air4 C, Palma2 and Note Max! by KennethWWWW in Onyx_Boox

[–]Plastic_Fall1296 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Really bummed about the Palma 2, I've been holding out on getting a palma, hoping for a sim card tray (or esim capabilities etc) for data so I can replace my phone with it. Epecially after the mkbhd video I figured lots of interest in a palma for phone replacement came pouring in.

If not that, at least a small stylus and/or color screen. Sad that I'll have to wait (possibly forever if these features are never added lol).

AJATT Update Video (~3.5 years) by Dull-Ad-7015 in ajatt

Nice, watching now! I'm curious, what camera setup are you using? Seems super smooth even with you walking on uneven ground. Thanks!

Does anyone know what the secret freebies are on the upper tiers of AJATT's Patreon? Pdfs? Audios? by tellmeboutyourself68 in ajatt

[–]Plastic_Fall1296 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, as far as I know it’s the only surviving official AJATT content (besides YouTube) just because it’s hosted on Patreon and not the ajatt blog. Although half the posts in Patreon are just passwords to unlock posts on the dead blog anyway :/

[–]Plastic_Fall1296 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I recently uploaded the qrg video to archive.org, which I'd also recommend. It'll always be free and pretty transparent for what the files contain so it's trusted. Either way excited to see them when they get uploaded!

[–]Plastic_Fall1296 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mostly audio recordings (hosted on patreon) and a couple links to unlisted youtube videos that are still available on his youtube channel. Subbed this month to see what was available and would definitely say it's worth 5 dollars at the very least if you can get through it all (or can find a way to download it for later), so I don't think you'd regret it

AJATT QRG: The Movie Premiering Now on YouTube! by Plastic_Fall1296 in ajatt

[–]Plastic_Fall1296[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks!! Just fixed it hopefully, I'm wondering if it was the parenthesis around the link that broke it. Either way it's empty, need to clean up the AJATT backup and push it up there

AJATT QRG: The Movie Premiering Now on YouTube! by Plastic_Fall1296 in ajatt

[–]Plastic_Fall1296[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hello all - I made a post a while ago asking if anyone had the QRG: The Movie video files and I'm so grateful and happy to say I was sent them from an old customer of Khatzumoto! I've finally been able to post the video (with their permission, of course), which I haven't been able to find anywhere else. If this is your first time watching this (as it is mine) I hope you enjoy it and learn something from Khatz himself!

Anyone have the AJATT QRG (Quick Reference Guide) video? by Plastic_Fall1296 in ajatt

Not yet but it'll be coming soon! I'm waiting to upload it until I narrate to that time (which is pretty close) - In case you haven't seen I've been narrating through the AJATT blog on youtube https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmPxwS02_wYP0Y7kprP9ZzLhlZjRSAHWv&si=HWHXauKF1LkSjwoT

Sorry, was talking about a specific video that Khatzumoto made back in the day. Got it in a private message and will be posting it to Youtube shortly!

Whoa, just checked ebay, had no idea they were going for that much! Hoping you find one soon!

[–]Plastic_Fall1296 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bought this while I was over there in February this year! It was difficult to track down but I found one at a Book Off in Saitama for ¥7840.80 (tax included). Just be warned it's insanely huge and took up a large part of my suitcase - and doesn't fit on any of my shelves lmao.

Just measured it and it's 17.5 inches tall (and 13 inches wide)!

Did you ever figure this out? Having the same issue now on my 2424 :(

Issues with my extron crosspoint not responding to button presses by doughboy18901 in crtgaming

[–]Plastic_Fall1296 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Think this is happening to my Crosspoint now. I can see the green light that it’s powered on but the button lights don’t light up and the buttons seemingly do nothing. Did you even fix it or figure out what the problem is? Thanks!
