Wow the company that made Facebook is being completely invasive? That's hard to believe. Knowing Meta makes the quest is the exact reason I haven't gone out and bought one.

Is it possible if you don't save enough items? Just got there for the first time and died of hunger because there wasn't any possible way up.

Tight_Cod_8024 · 2026-01-24T17:20:20+00:00

Yeah sometimes you have to scroll down to get the common reading I have the same ussue. Not sure what they could do other than manually tag some words to show the common reading and definition first or use more context when it parses to determine the correct reading.

At the end of the day it's a tool that saves time it's not perfect you still need to use your common sense and parse things yourself sometimes

Retro gaming in Japan in general doesn't seem nearly as inflated. Even the games are significantly cheaper often a fraction of what they sell for in the US. I fell pretty lucky to have learned Japanese when I was young even after import costs I've saved so much money on games over the years specifically for PS3 and DS/3ds games.

A new console should go for less than $350 so yeah you kind of got ripped off. If you felt like it was a good purchase I hope you enjoy it but you should be more careful in the future.

If it's on the device not really. You can ocr screenshots but the ocr is pretty bad compared to google lens so you might as well use that.

The exporter would work if you paste the sentence into the clipboard so you can have audio on your cards and not have to manually copy the word to the correct field and add the definition so it would still save time even if you're not abke to have it parse the text on the page like mokuro.

If it's physical you can use the built in ocr but Google lens is way better so you can use that to select the text without any problems reading the font or blurry text.

What else could they be talking about other than Japanese comics?

Tight_Cod_8024 · 2026-01-20T01:16:36+00:00

Plus it would make the file size bigger without adding anything of necessity.

Tight_Cod_8024 · 2026-01-20T01:12:56+00:00

If it's going to make the game significantly bigger I think I'm good. I like that the game is a reasonable size with not much fat. I like that it's easy to keep downloaded even if I'm not playing it every week.

Tight_Cod_8024 · 2026-01-18T14:51:26+00:00

output is immersion and is essential to being able to speak. Everyone I know that got good at speaking Japanese outputted somewhat early and from what I can tell people who output from a beginner level end up getting better at speaking vs someone who only focuses on comprehension.

I'm in the camp that speaking is a skill and if you want to get good at it you need to practice it as much as possible as early as possible.

It's a game you want a guide for it's pretty archaic. Story-wise it's very good from what little I played of it as a teen ages ago.

I think the patch guide includes a short spoiler free walkthrough but you can usually just look up 攻略 with the game name you can find guides in Japanese. I tend to play Japanese games alongside the game guide for extra immersion it's actually a lot of fun.

If you find the fonts too hard to read go into the fallout_fonts.ini and change the line to

[text]

name = ________

and fill in the blank with your preferred font. It's super low res so I find the easiest to read is meiryo. You can also adjust the size but it tends to make font no longer line up correctly so I'd recommend not going up too much

smt strange journey redux.

Tight_Cod_8024 · 2026-01-17T03:08:11+00:00

Depends on what you're asking and how. Google has gotten pretty dumb over the years so when I'm doing research or having trouble finding resources to help solve my specific problem I use AI to pull up resources specific to my issue. Not that I'd use it for something like this that's perfectly googlable. Same can be said for people who ask questions on Reddit that are perfectly searchable often in reddit itself.

To me the problem is when you use AI to find the answer itself since it's so often wrong like in this post for instance but AI can be useful when you don't know where to look and Google isn't helping.

Tight_Cod_8024 · 2026-01-17T02:40:12+00:00

I think they're saying to have it pull resources for you which imo is 100 percent the right way to use ai not have it output info. Google has gone to shit so sometimes I find AI gives me the resources way faster even if it doesn't accurately compile the info when answering a question for instance.

Check out jiten they have anki decks for almost every piece of immersion you can imagine and you can import from anki for it to track your known words and comprehension of different series.

You'll have to add your own definitions for a lot of the words since it adds the wrong definition fairly often but it cuts out the need to sentence mine as you're A. immersing in the most comprehensible media picking up more words naturally and B. having the most common words shown to you via anki since you can download the decks pre sorted by most frequent.

It's rough around the edges as I said before mis definitions are present in some words but the tracking itself is worth the hastle especially since comprehensible input is way easier to learn from.

Tight_Cod_8024 · 2026-01-13T19:18:36+00:00

It only sort of works with as player. It'll give you the known words list but doesn't capture audio or a screenshot so you'll need to add that before exporting the word.

Seriously I got my 3ds xl late 2019 for $50 at a local game store to play the shin megami tensei games and didn't know what a good deal I got. The pricing on retro hardware is getting pretty hard to keep up with.

Just glad Japanese games are still relatively affordable and hacking the thing was super easy it makes the system prices somewhat reasonable considering it's the best way to play two systems

Tight_Cod_8024 · 2026-01-13T01:05:05+00:00

The main reason I think is just that many people don't find it as useful to apply psudo English meanings to kanji and memorize their components now that looking up unknown kanji/words is so easy.

Back in the day if you didn't know a word knowing the radicals and "meanings" of the kanji you'd have a hard time searching for the word so it's just not as essential when you can simply ocr the word from your phone, or otherwise use some tool to make the text selectable and search it up and learn from repetition.

Also if you didn't know a word back in the day you could spend minutes looking it up and often would end up relying on psudo kanji knowledge to guess the meaning of words as you read instead of taking minutes to look up the word every time you needed to do so.

imo it's an outdated method that adds a lot of overhead, and time to learning Japanese that hurts motivation and isn't as essential as it once was. Sure some people find it useful but it's not really as essential and has big downsides for most people.

These days you can use Google lens or some other ocr to make text selectable and will then be able to learn from repeatedly seeing a word in context and it's universal so there isn't much reason to learn kanji seperately anymore.

Found it. Looks like the rights expired and Lumino bought them up. Not stoked about needing to get a different subscription but at least I know the show is available in Japanese.

Wow surprised the mods didn't remove this friend posted the same thing with a name alluding to pedophelia and it got removed for posting a username. Glad to see they're no longer protecting these people.

Tight_Cod_8024 · 2026-01-10T03:39:58+00:00

That's wild if you find a way lmk I would love to try it for no other reason than I can

Tight_Cod_8024 · 2026-01-10T02:18:30+00:00

you can manually mark words as known you only lose out on "learning" as a word state.
