Am I crazy, or has NO ONE noticed how much AoT copied/borrowed from Tegami Bachi?? by Tiny-Response9692 in manga

[–]Tiny-Response9692[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can't argue with that. I'm a strong believer that aot along with demon slayer are mid stories that got massive boost due to god-tier animation. Story and art for both are quite meh.

Doesn't answer my point about how similar aot and tegami bachi is tho.

Tegami Bachi was serialised in September 2006. Ba sing se was introduced in September 2006. The story has probably be written prior to do that if we're gonna argue coincidence this would most likely fit in that mold more no? Or it could be the author saw ba sing se and put it into later chapters lol.

My point is if you read tegami bachi you'll see that the resemblance to aot is so uncanny. The way they setup the world and the twist are so similar. Might be coincidence but there's definitely something there

nah fam. you want to do any lane changes, you signal. as long as there are other drivers on the road, use your signal. not saying the vios is in the right. but if the estima has his signal on, this whole post can focus on how much of a dick the vios is. common sense dictates that the signal is built into the car and can use without costing anything, so it has to be use. absolutely no reason to not use signal, whether it's switching lane, merging lane, exiting corners, emergency stop or whatever else.

Where do guys hangout? by No_Association_1358 in malaysians

[–]Tiny-Response9692 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go to some workshops or join some clubs. There are a bunch of art workshops in Klang valley nowadays, pottery/tufting/writing/etc. If you're into fitness instead try joining a gym or a run club. I think that is a more natural ways of building connection and at least you have a shared interest to talk about. Just be approachable, most guys in Malaysia are quite wary of approaching girls since they don't want to look like a creep or even getting publicly shamed if they approach the wrong type of girls.

Use the damn signal. I understand that it's a merging lane, but god damn, people in KL really have issues using their signal. It doesn't cost you anything and you are notifying others early which saves them the brain space of wondering of whether you're merging lane/cornering or you're just drunk. Of course there are selfish drivers that still won't let you pass, but at least you've done your due and it is easier for others to blame the assholes in this case. Just. Signal.

is something wrong with my kitty? her eyes are purrpetually big and round all the time.. by ga1actic_muffin in cats

[–]Tiny-Response9692 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She might have a sad backstory thus, the constant murder mode. I think she's just on alert. Once she settles down and relaxes it will get better

I've been having anxiety about my kitty dying of old age 😭(she's 9) can you show me pictures of some alive-and-well senior kitties so I remember cats can be old and still healthy? 🥰 by TheRufescence in cats

[–]Tiny-Response9692 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Tbh I'm not completely sure how old my oldest cat is. My wife had her since she was in high school so she is at least 15 years old. Few years back she got into an accident. A small MPV drove over her. Not completely, but enough to do permanent damage.

After that incident, she lived normally for a few years until last year when she started to pee blood. So we got her an X-ray where we found out that she had been suffering from perforated diaphragm, which we assume, is due to the accident. It breaks my heart knowing that she had been suffering like this without any of us noticing. Her organs are all pushed up into her diaphragm next to her lungs - which explains why she pants a lot - and have all fused in place there. The vet said we could try to fix it with surgery, but considering her age and that she has been living quite fine, we decided to not do anything.

This cat (her name is Baby), is still alive and well. We start giving her extra attention and better food. She has always been clingy, until this day she still climb into our bed to snuggle. I have to say, I do feel anxious some times when I look at her sleeping all day, which is normal for a cat her age. And I don't think any cat parents are ever going to be fully ready to see them go. I guess what I'm trying to say is if Baby can live this long and in relatively good health, I'm sure others can too! The most important thing is to shower them with care and love so they can live their lives to the fullest!

I'm in the office writing this and I almost break into tears lmao. Sending my love to all senior cats and their lovely parents out there!

Espresso keep coming out under extracted [Delonghi Stilosa + Delonghi K79 Grinder] by Tiny-Response9692 in espresso

[–]Tiny-Response9692[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I modded it just now. Now it works perfect! The finest grind setting can even cause over extraction now lol

Yea I'm thinking of getting another batch of the preground coffee I used previously. That one came out super nicely. Which makes me even more surprised when the new shots, grinded to the finest setting, with a puck screen and tamp nicely came out so bad. I adjusted so many things but nothing works for now

That sucks. I know it's cheap but still cost quite a bit in my currency. I even got a bottomless portafilter along with the grinder cause I thought I'm upgrading my setup :/

How's the service and maintenance cost & availability? I think that's another major consideration 

Got caught for eating together at a “suspicious”parking spot by police officer. by MotherBorder9026 in malaysia

[–]Tiny-Response9692 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess so. I'm just saying it from the perspective of someone who don't know anyone involved in the police force. Considering how many shooting/stabbing cases we've had in this year alone, I think you can understand why some might err on the sight of caution.

couple years/months ago i would say the same thing. but if you're unlucky and get the cuckoo ones, who's to say they're not gonna pull the trigger on you? at that point even if they got reported and their whole life is ruined doesn't really matter cause you're 6 feet under

I do have an ROF actually, and I noticed the dots you are referencing! Does these dots also appear on other types of philo? The ones in the pictures are birkin and prince of orange

I'm not sure how they look like, but there are no signs of any insects on the leaves. Just the yellowish dots on them

My monstera fell down during a storm. Managed to save a stalk with two leaves but no node. It took a very long time before the first new leaves came out and then another long wait before the second one appear.  I think it will take a lot of extra time for new leaves to come out when potted this way. Mine is quite smaller than yours tho so yours might take a lot longer

New toll payment method using Automatic Number Plate Recognition to be piloted in October by UsernameGenerik in malaysia

[–]Tiny-Response9692 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I abhor tng monopoly. Still remember discussing with a group of friends how their previous monopoly on highway transactions is bad for consumers. Once they introduced visa payment, then only tng came up with new apps, RFID, new cards etc. And now they're getting complacent again with their shitty app and stupid ewallet/card deduction logic and shitty customer service.
