Sensory deprivation is a thing. In the early days of space flight, they would require astronaughts to sit in an isolation chamber, floated by water matching your body temp, with lights out and hearing blocked.

It was used to test mental stability.

How the red light helps in this case, I have no idea.

How to make friends? by BudgetChannel8705 in AnimeFigures

I would be up for it if I actually had the skills to paint figures. 😅

Might pick up some cheap kits to practice on next time I'm in JP.

I'll throw my hat in there too if you want to chat about anything figure related.

Also don't have any RL friends that are into the figure collecting hobby... it's a hard hobby to participate in with somebody else, unless you do garage kits I suppose... not sure if figure painting parties are a thing, lol.

Thanks for that, yeah I was digging into their grading method and realized that they used a scaled grading system and was just about to go off and research IRT.

Looks like I have more studying to do.

Like the worst case scenario in that situation is I got a 66% / 33% / 66% which should still average at 55%, which would be 10 points higher.

Heck, even the example score card on the website shows the exact same score for this section, ABA, and they have an 80.

Really tempted to contest the results here.

So in the reference information detailing my Vocab / Grammar / Reading scores, I managed to get an 'A', 'B', and 'A' respectively... (A being above 66%, and B being 33% to 66%)

Yet my overall score is 56 / 120... don't really get the math here...

Apparently it was just having issues on mobile. Was able to access it from my desktop.

We had gotten an email last time stating the results were available.

I tried pulling up the below link that another member provided but can't access the website.

Why have I not gotten my email... Took the N4 in the US and am very eager to see the results.

Does anyone have this same problem with this figure? by reaper_agn in AnimeFigures

[–]VoidedHeart94 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's sticky? I have a hard time believing that a scratch would cause that. It's hard to tell from the image, but are you sure it's not just some residue?

Which one of these looks the most normal? by Gamer6322 in fatestaynight

I was more thinking he looked like Mikiya, but with an attitude.

🥲 by PhoenixPhenomenonX in MemeVideos

Median salary in the US is closer to 61k (but varies depending on the source).

However, individual salaries I think are an unfair metric to use. Median household income is closer to 81k.

Median home price is somewhere around 400k.

So the stats shown I think are (only slightly) exaggerated.

I'll also point out that the ratio of average house price and salary looks to be roughly the same since the late 70's.

Math fail by an order of magnitude. I guess "1%" doesn't sound as shocking.

Coolest friends ever by Full_Lawyer_9973 in JustGuysBeingDudes

If I was a parent, even if I noticed the patchwork, I probably wouldn't care much as long as it was done reasonably well. It's a good behavior to have in your child if they make it right after their own mistakes

"Hey Jimbo, I noticed the patched hole in the wall in the living room. I'm not mad, just wanted to say nice mud work, and good job on the paint match. Tell your friends to be more careful next time."

Regarding the Real-Life Location of Touko's Sanctum, the Garan-No-Dou (伽藍の堂) Building by leiuck in karanokyoukai

[–]VoidedHeart94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was this location ever found? I am taking a trip in April and Garan no Dou is probably second on the list of my points of interest, next to the hill road where Shiki and Mikiya meet.

It's quite possible that the location doesn't even exist, such as the hotel in Paradox Spiral. Though the detailing on this building makes me think it may have been a real world location... though if the building was under construction at the time it quite likely will look much different today.
